They sure could if they want to.

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.

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.

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

How do you manage all the hair growth??

They sure are, and they didnt went there as football hooligans. Point is there was an organised effort to instigated violence by a group that is different fromt the group that organised a peaceful protest - even though both groups have similar political views.

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.

Edit because i wrote my comment in the wrong place, but i totally agree with this.

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

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.

If they only sold mri machines it’d make much less sense, but they sell a lot of stuff and their name on a healthcare machine increases trust. When you sell stuff like this brand perception can go a very long way. That aside execs and designers might feel very proud to have produced this machine. But carry on with your scepticism, it’s good practice.

They have one of the smallest brain to body ratios of any mammal, […] they have the largest hind gut to body ratio of any mammal
