  • Yeah no. We already see various forms of direct government censorship and indirect censorship through private entities holding key social media platforms.

    The last thing we need is a full embracement of shutting down and censoring. Also it is entirely impractical, as you have overlaps as two nations at odds with each other might both be on good terms with a third nation.

    Finally, what happens when you go on holiday? Do you want special government approved agents to be the only ones eligble to purchase a plane ticket from and book a hotel with? Prepare to pay triple and end up with a system even more ripened with corruption than the current economy.

    Finally it is naive to think that this would stop competing disinformation. Just have a satelite interface and maybe some private network as bridge and voilá.

    All this does is fuck over the people more, while the elites get to continue their shit.














  • You realize that it takes money and workers to upkeep, repair, rebuild plants? Staying with nuclear costs money that instead is better invested in renewables. And you realize that maintaining that share against newly build renewables requires new plants right?

    You understand that 20% of 100 are 20 and 20% of 200 are 40 right? Like when you look at the charts, you see that the total production capacity doubled, because of the exponential growth of renewables. So it would need new plants to maintain the share.

    So unless the plants you demanded were already in planning in 1990, there is no way they would have been there in 2010. Seriously, with how bad at math and physics the proponents of nuclear power are it is all the more important to keep them away from such a dangerous technology.




  • Yeah, 20 years ago. If you build more renewables the share of all other power sources goes down.

    If you look at the total values in your source, you’ll see nuclear to decline since 2006. And from 2021-2023 then the full phase out happened. But the only plants that hypothetically could have ran a bit longer were only left to produce 2%.

    To revert now, Germany first would need to invest billions to modernize the plants, which would take years to scale back into it. Also it would likely need to buy their fuel rods from Russia, defeating the whole purpose of sanctioning Russian Oil and Gas.



  • As someone from Germany, i strongly advise against moving to Germany. You get shit services, massive racism and shit weather. If you decide to come nonetheless, prepare to deal with no cell-phone coverage as you go by train or car across the country. Also the Trains are notoriously late and the highways are crumbling. It only takes some triple digit billions to catch up with the deficit in infrastructure investment.

    Prepare to wait for up to a year for specialist doctors appointments. That is if the doctors you tried to visit didn’t all turn you down, because they are either overbooked or said that you look fine and southerners are just always dramatic.

    And if you look like you could be from the Middle East, so if you are Spanish, Italian, from the Balkans, Latin America or any other place where people aren’t pale as fuck, prepare to be insulted, threatened and sometimes violently attacked in the streets.


  • Inside their countries they used to be. Italian migrant workers faced racist backlash in Germany at first. Then it shifted to Turkish migrant workers, then to Jugoslawian refugees, now to Arabs but also back to Turkish people as they are perceived as Muslim. Of course all minorities, European or not are facing racism, only the focus shifted.

    Now we have a Nazis cooperating across Europe on two notions. The first being “Whites vs. Muslims” the other being that supposedly only ethnically homogenous countries could work, so Czech Republic for Czechs, Germany for Germans, Hungary for Hungarians, Netherlands for Dutch…


  • Biden and Harris want the annihilation of Palestine. They could put an end to it now. Everyone who claims that the parties have any sliver of difference in regards to their actions on Israels genocide was proven wrong once again. Trump just speaks the quiet part out loud. But this was the most clear “red-line” It was specifically measured, none of this “its not a large invasion of Rafah, only a small one” bullshit. The US made an explicit demand. It was not even remotely reached.

    This was yet another insulting move against the muslim, black and other minority communities in the US by the Democrats. it said “we believe you are this stupid to fall for it.”

    Guess what, the people said “we are tired of your genocidal bullshit”.
