Not paying your enforcers well enough to make sure they are loyal would probably be the dumbest mistake anyone with wealth and/or power can make.
Not saying it cant be done of course, but it seems a bit more involved than climbing over a fence after giving the guard some cigarettes.
According to the quote they have taken precautions, the peasantry is not allowed on the island. And to make sure they dont try, they have armed guards and security systems in plaxs.
She’s a feminist and animal rights activist, yes. She is also pretty islamophobic and racist, also noted on the wiki page.
These guys exist on lemmy as well. I’m not sure what sort of people are attracted to that doomer ideology but I fucking hate that defeatist mentality.
Oh I didn’t ask to be born, we have too many people anyway, you’re so irresponsible to have kids with climate change and fascism and all, entirely ignoring the fact that this is at best a niche ideology amongst the educated part of western societies and will have zero bearing on the future aside from diminishing that specific demographic.
If anything those people, the educated and skilled, should be reproducing more, not less, because ensuring a liveable tomorrow needs these kids. Your psy ops idea has some merit as well, it really seems odd that only western “liberal elites” are buying into this insanity.
E: your boos mean nothing I have seen what makes you people cheer
I could imagine they would be bonding, yeah. The Afrikaners are probably also able to speak english, and then you have a bunch of white people wanting to live in a racist system with them as the ruling class and the only real difference being their dialect.
Remember that being white didn’t include many races we consider white today, the most absurd example being the Irish who are on average even more white than the anglogermanic “original” ones.
When push comes to shove they are still white people and ideologically very similar and will band together against the liberal scourge
You sure you don’t know why trump wants to take in the remnants of the apartheid regime’s constituents?
South Africa used to be what american southerners dream of when they fly the confederate flag.
Why don’t we split that shit up? Russia is so large and has so few people in comparison they might as well be a bunch of smaller states who can’t threaten their neighbors like that.
Oh I don’t believe it will work out for him either, but I’m willing to think he’s just naïve instead of an idiot asshole until proven otherwise lol
Might also be smart enough to play uncle tom for the media in the hope of getting the turd in charge to decide to keep him as one of the good ones.
Interesting, I hadn’t thought of that.
Although I would argue that such “unrealized” profits would still count as being given overseas, since the money is not available to the european economy any more, no?
They just keep it parked in some kind of inflation proof financial construct until needed (at which point they might have to pay taxes on however much of it they need to withdraw, but still).
I think the education needs to go further. Being billionaire rich is in itself a huge red flag; and people having this much money should immediately cause people to distrust them on every level because nobody gets that rich from honest work, from paying their employees fairly, from caring about the environment and general wellbeing of mankind.
Being a billionaire should disqualify people from owning and/or having shares in any economical sector deemed essential to societal wellbeing, not to mention from holding any kind of public office or even from exercising any kind of political agenda at all. They’re rich, they don’t need representation. They actually can take care of themselves.
Well okay but where do the profits go? That’s right, overseas
Insert homer and pantsless ashamed Bart meme: "Greatest depression so far ☝️
Don’t forget that they don’t give a shit.
Not an american but personally I think thats too low a bar for the leader of a country. Why shouldn’t we ask of the people we give ultimate power to that they be better than the average dipshit?
Because of their skin color
True, though I was mostly asking from a “how will it be spun” perspective. But yeah I agree, the most interesting part of these terror attacks is that most of them seem to be car based.
Well that doesnt count for much in this matter. The actual question is, was he white/german?
You know who else said exactly that? The people who made Hitler chancellor.
They could just use random names that conform to their beliefs.
