They sure could if they want to.

I 100% agree!

I don’t believe the government intended to create a business from the migrant crisis though, it just happens to be where their choices brought them.

I sincerely hope that after Ukraine wins the war, the parties that now support Ukraine will go on and support the people in Russia and Belarus instead of going back to doing business with the likes of Putin and Lucashenko. The people there risking their lives deserve it.

This is how it should be in a just world, but we do not live in one

I agree, but if we as people do whatever the fuck we want the politicians won’t have a good example of how they’re supposed to treat people.

and the only reason we even have basic human rights at all is because they were violently protested for, and 99% of the violence came from the state.

We the people do have allies within the state, although there are plenty of places were those allies are kicked out as soon as they do some good, not all states are an enemy of the people. Again, i too believe we should uphold politicians to high standards and we should praise them without good reason, but the least we can do is treat them as decently as we’d like to be treated ourselves. But i guess if i was living in a place where national politics was a mess like the UK or US, i’d be less willing to defend the basterds that are breaking ‘my’ democracy too. Not judging anyone in that regard.

Though i’m against criminalizing protesters, i do think people who do bad things on their job also deserve a private life. If they break the law they should be brought to court obviously, but if they act within the bounds of the rule of law protest should be against the movement or the system that allows this bad individual that does the bad thing. I’ll get some downvotes for saying this, but i believe we should not only be decent to people who do things we like, but to literally everyone.

You can be a foreigner, no problem. You can be super-rich, that’s fine. But both? Unacceptable.

Expected it to be an error, i understood that the data came from MarketCapWatch obv

The source url links to the homepage, not to the graph or the data.

Would make it more livable too, without Moscow’s oppression.

Vraag me af of het gescript is, er zijn al drie ‘interviews’ hiervoor gepubliceerd en die politici gaan er juist heel serieus tegenin. Ook voor hun is het duidelijk dat er satire gemaakt wordt, maar zij blijven wel achter hun partijprogramma staan. Karremans daarentegen maakt wel een leuker filmpje, maar verdedigt de (standpunten) van de vvd verder niet. Snap wel dat we dit niet serieus moeten nemen, maar ik vind het echt wel opvallend hoe Karremans een andere aanpak heeft gekozen. Maar de zelfspot kan ik waarderen hoor, blijft leuk. Maar Partij tegen de burger is al snel leuk.

How do you manage all the hair growth??

Bizar hoe weinig moeite het Karremans kost om satire te maken. Komt heel overtuigend over als hij zegt dat samenwerken met democratische partijen een fout is.

Imagine all kinds of other products had a warning like this. Don’t wear sunglasses and walk on the street, you may be killed. Don’t use wet wipes and walk on the road, you may be killed. Don’t play videogames and walk on the road, you may be killed. Guess at least they warn of how dangerous it is near cars.

No data = no problems \(°▽°)/

Dutchie here - the violence wasn’t instigated by the right-wing protesters but by football hooligans who tend to have similar views on migration. I think it is important to make the distinction especially since English language reporting on this is much more alarmist imo.

This is basically what we’re getting but with a different appearance, i believe there is a lot of overlap between Wero and iDeal

I’m also disappointed in the guy that’s causing all this!!

This is great, a step forward in European integration. But what I am really looking forward is an alternative for card payments in stores. Right now the only way to avoid non-European companies is paying with cash.
