Ending? Only now? COVID has shown that we a) have precious little capacity left in Europe and b) are mostly reliant on base materials from China and India to keep said capacities running.
Just a corn on the internet.

Sure and the incident was a suicide, no question about it.
Former girlfriend of mine had a patient jump out of a window after his late stage cancer diagnose.


Unfortunately it’s necessary in a place where people regularly receive life changing or ending news.
You shouldn’t kill something just because it annoys you.
Use some incense like this one to keep insects at bay.
Now you made me curious …
Anyone has an authentic raspeballer recipe at hand?
Let’s be generous and say we are 15. Saw a new person somewhere over here. *vaguely gestures into distance*


“bonus”
It has been proven time and time again that women, immigrants and disabled are less likely to be hired even when they have the same level of qualification. So the real people having a “bonus” are white males. If we can’t break this bias the easy way, the hard way with quotas it is then.
All are bad it nothing else because you cannot be sure that for that specific job there are enough qualified candidates
Have you taken a look at those quotas? They are always worded “When candidates have the same qualifications, X will be given preference in hiring”. Nobody is given a job just for who they are.
Eliminating disadvantages means that everyone has the opportunity to try
A common misconception. Take the article I linked previously: Everyone can apply for a rental apartment. However people with foreign sounding names are not given equal chance of receiving said rental. It’s in fact the whole premise of the Civil Rights Movement in the US: Yes, slavary and even segregation was abolished but people still were and are discriminated against on the basis of who they are.
An immigrant has disadvantages ? Maybe, but to eliminate them you need to work on the causes and this need years
“You have problems now? Too bad, maybe in a couple years we can help.” Do I really have to comment on this?
you only closed your eyes on the causes, simply ignoring them without resolving them
Coupled with the last paragraph: Have you considered doing both? Helping people in the here and now and also working on long term solutions? Kind of like when breaking a bone a doctor gives you painkillers for the immediate relief and a cast to support the long term healing process?
And stupidity cannot be solved by law.
No, but you can prevent a good chunk of stupid people from doing stupid stuff by outlawing the stupid stuff.


Immigrant is also a “verified” category. We have a whole federal ministry dealing with immigration related topics.
This is not about giving bonuses but eliminating disadvantages. Prejudice and outright xenophobia is a very real thing here still.


Not the hero we need but the hero we deserve.
Your definition of censorship is off then. Censorship would mean the content is not accessible at all. I.e. bars above genitals in Japanese hentai.
No, it just means people have to actively make a single click to disable the blur.


So, preferential hiring for women and disabled is going out the window next? Would be on brand for her party.


Well, let’s start with the obvious: Why is the second Chinese bar not burgundry?
Next: Why are specific projects listed against an average for China? That’s the cheapest trick in the book for skewing statistics. Compare specific instances against averages.
Finally: Sources? Trust us, bro!


The woman approached a wild animal that was in a visibly confused state.
Doesn’t matter the species or size: Don’t do that unless you know exactly what you are doing or can deal with being attacked. She did neither.
Of course idiots are going to use this as excuse for their “wolf bad” nonsense.
Edit: Oh and have fun with the vaccine against rabies that’s administered preemptively in such cases. Side effects can be brutal but better than dying with 100% certainty.


Guess he still shits on the analysis of people with first-hand knowledge of the situation in Syria (German article).


Ok, that’s a good argument, however I’m throwing a new one into the ring myself: I think the “LocationX War” naming schema should not be used.
Compare it to naming diseases after (supposed) places of origins such as the Spanish flue. In contrast, Coronavirus disease 2019 was explicitly named after the virus to avoid mixing cause and location. Which of course didn’t stop people like Trump to call it China flue anyway, but we digress …
Partially this schema is used already. I.e. “The American War for Independence” is a war initiated by the people of the soon-to-be USA against their colonial sovereign Great Britain caused by a wish for independence. So IMO same as with diseases the name should derive from the cause, not from the location. Therefore, better alternatives to “the Iran war” are:


No, because that’s not what DW used as headline.
It’s a sign of their bias, yes, but removing it is “editing” the article in a sense.


Well, we are not at the Autonomous-Refueling-From-Biomatter-Stage, yet.
Bit of nitpicking here, but that would have been the job of the Gestapo.
