Did he try curtains or window blinds as well? Southern Europeans say it works.

You’re the one advocating for cheap labour without restrictions, how am I the one carrying the flame for the rich? The rich love cheap labour! But yeah, with that dominant ideology among left parties, no wonder the popular classes vote far-right…

No region of the world can receive millions of people without disruptions. Some thousands and you have a housing crisis already, shitty apartments in Lisbon are more expensive than good ones in Brussels. And the total of the population barely changed…

Also, migration without controls is a neoliberal agenda, not a left one. Controlled economy doesn’t work with uncontrolled migration. It’s weird to me that it’s always the left carrying the defense of migration when it’s something of a free market ideology. Socialist countries are always extremely controlling of their borders.

The problem of the debate on migration is that it’s always black and white, it’s difficult to have nuance, and this is a complex topic where nuance is essential to achieve a reasonable policy, one that allows needed workers from outside Europe to work in Europe, but one that also addresses the safety and demographic concerns of Europeans. The debate is clearly being won by the far-right, although they easily reverse their own policies when they see a negative impact on their businesses.

But the left won’t win this if their position is always and only of defense of current policies against far-right attacks. Europe needs migration, but Europeans also need assurances that that migration doesn’t put in question their social contract and their way of life. And these are indeed being put to test in several places around Europe. Easy cheap labour makes everyone’s jobs more precarious, especially among the less qualified ones. Muslim migration is indeed changing the way of life in many neighborhoods and cities around Europe, in a way that doesn’t please the locals. There are real issues with real consequences in the real world, lefty university professors praising diversity while living in gentrified areas and having the most secure jobs in the country won’t be the ones winning the debate.

She could simply boycott like many artists did, but she doesn’t want to pay that price, she prefers instead to try to profit from the situation. Quite lame actually.

Third world countries getting contaminated by woke speech and consequently screwed… the woke professors in the West are not the ones getting worse living standards out of the silly policies they inspire. Lower French investment in Algeria has real consequences for people in Algeria. The woke guys in the West will continue to afford and consume French wine.

Nobody was expecting the Spanish inquisition.

He’s being wanted by German police.

Very hard to predict, but the more the war lasts, the least people will fly via the Gulf, which will increase prices for all connections from Europe to Asia and Australia… But I would say that now is too early to buy for October… As a general rule in life.

I still haven’t found what I’m looking for…

Hungary is a terrorist state. This can’t be tolerated, with or without elections. Everyone is just waiting for the elections… but nothing is assured, and I don’t really have much hope on a transparent process there. Time to act, if this “plays into Orban’s hands” well too bad, that’s the price of decades of stupidity among Hungarian voters. But Hungary must be stopped.

Twitter always had a fraction of Facebook or Instagram users. It was/is popular with certain niches, more or less popular in certain countries, but not the network to find your family or friends.

Politicians and reporters using it should be ashamed of sharing a platform with Nazis and pedophiles.

I see your point, but still, that’s no excuse for X, it was never the network of the people, it’s used by politicians, reporters and news junkies. Most people never used it. Politicians and reporters are just addicted to it and too lazy to move anywhere else…

They’re still mostly on X, including left wing ones… so… there’s that.
