With even more Scientology I’m sure, somehow.
Couldn’t agree more.
Holy shit am I really reading an argument about using bets to forecast an election?
The part of my brain doing math just spontaneously combusted.
Because we only have a relative majority and now Macron is teaming up with the hard right (not the far right, the other right right that is not center right… Yeah, too much right is wrong) to deprive us of any path to government. Shit sucks. But it could have sucked way harder.
Yet another reason why people shouldn’t be using Brave.
Pretty sure the OP was a troll, actually.
Anyhow, if you want specifics, we currently have 90 far right MPs in Congress and even our “centrist” government and the “classic right” seem to have decided muslims are to blame for everything. This includes and is not limited to :
I’m sure I’m forgetting a lot of things. But also, I can see everyday around me how hard muslim people, but also any arab looking person, have it in the public eye. The far right is on the rise politically but also socially. Anything that “does not belong”, be it LGBTQ, non white people, etc is increasingly targeted by pressure groups of "concerned citizens ", “protector of the peace,”, “defender of children” and so on. It worries me. A lot.
Because Muslims are increasingly marginalised, disenfranchised and used as a scapegoat for everything that goes bad?
So much this. Our rightwing is hellbent on importing every single moral panic from the US to detract from their blunders and authoritarianism.
Yeah you’re right, as long as they only victimise and kill their own people it’s JUST FINE.
God, the shit people write sometimes…
I think cirrhosis is afraid of getting Kavanaugh.
I had a student write me a chatgpt canned answer, prompt included.
Communism is a political philosophy which in and of itself does not advocate for oppression. There is indeed nothing wrong with it, at least if you advocate for freedom of thought.
The Stalinist version of authoritarianism has been conflated with communism by american (mostly) media during the cold war. It is however a very specific ideology.
Apologists for authoritarian regimes, whatever their political leaning, deserve no platform or tolerance. Plurality of thought however is needed and essential.
She’ll probably do it herself at this rate.
Nah, that is actually a slang for sex workers, who do not deserve to be associated with Putin.
Yep, especially when they come from different alphabets. But we used to do it for English names too (mostly medieval ones though).
Side note, this is also the French spelling of Putin. So you can eat Poutine while being mad at Poutine (I’ll let you guess which is which, unless you’re a cannibal then everything goes TBF).
The fact that this is actually legal makes me glad to live in the EU. Damn, this shit is bleak.
We have very little discussion about German politics here. A little bit about afd lately and whenever the EU comes up but not as much as US or UK politics. The cultural hegemony is no joke…
Fuck l’Académie Française as well.
