Sweden’s party is bad, but not AfD-bad. They are also already in the coalition as a supporting party, but not actually in the government. Though I dread the day they will be in the government.

Right now though, polls point to a center-left coalition next year…

No he does not. You need well formulated questions if you want good answers in a poll. If you asked “would you prefer we give up fortified front line territory and forcibly halved our army in exchange for ceasefire?” you would not get that percentage.

They are sick and tired of this war, no question about that. But this war is existential. Russia does not acknowledge Ukrainian as a real language and culture. Everyone knows Russia would attack again. Ukraine has no choice but to defend themselves.

These polls are so bad. It’s like asking “would you like peace?”. Ukranians know perfectly well what would happen to them and their relatives if they lost the war. Fighting a war SUCKS but it was not their choice to go to war. It was not their choice to get terror-bombed every single night.

It was not Ukraine’s idea to go to war.

Finally one single comment nuancing this instead of just going “wtf censorship!!!”. Women are literally feeling pressured to get choked during sex because we have a sick porn industry thriving on depicting women as an object you can treat in any way you want. This is a fucking disgusting cultural development and moat people here (99% men obviously) are defending it. What you do at home in consent is up to you, but you guys must realize that the way we depict women in porn will shape the culture of how men expects women to behave, and what obscure shit women feel they are expected to put up with.

Vaccine and hygene, sure. But pasteurization is not something that prevents an extinction, at least not currently. It prevents unnecessary death and illness for many.

We can take milk for example. If everyone drank unpasteurized milk, most people would be fine. But every now and then, you’d get nasty e-coli outbreaks here and there. Most would survive it after a really really shitty time, but some would die. This is really why some people are lead to believe pasteurization is unnecessary, because you don’t realize how important it actually is through anecdotes - you need statistics.

But of course, skepticism towards health science in general is a huge problem and most antipasteurizationers are antivaxxers as well.

It’s always black and white and clear who’s the good guy and who’s the bad guy, right?

Sad people can’t think a nation can be the lesser evil in one war and the greater evil in another war…

Billionaires? Sure. Millionaires though… Someone getting their company successful through a good idea, hard work and a great ton of luck can become a millionaire. People with a million € or $ are not the main problem really. There will always be richer and poorer people. The problem is that we have people with 1000+ million, and that these people are yet getting even richer by simply just having that wealth. The difference between a million and a billion is enourmous.

I think we’re seeing the same reaction as when Russia invaded Georgia in 2008. Basically “oh no this is not okay. anyway…”.

Stalin is literally the closest thing we have to Adolf Hitler that isn’t Adolf Hitler. You realize Stalin did mass-scale ethnic cleansing? You also realize Stalin was ALLIED with the Nazis in the beginning?

Thing is, even devoutly Christians in Europe can’t relate to their US equivalents. They’re way different.

Canada is also a member of the Commonwealth, so the UK would pretty much be forced to go to war against the US if Canada was invaded.

Capitalism-lover hates competition. Interesting.

If the US wants to be involved or not is up to you guys, that’s fair. It’s our cause, first and foremost. But what Trump is doing now is not “not getting involved”. He is actively sabotaging and siding with Russia. I’d be fine if he just shut up and minded his own business, but he is very much involved right now and even says Europe should not take part in negotiations. So on the one hand, he says it’s Europe’s cause, but on the other, he acts like it’s his his own cause. It’s once again Trump being Trump.

This is false, the EU donated more than the US. Trump says otherwise, yes, but he is lying.

Nuclear war is exactly what Trump is risking right now. Russia will go to war again if Trump gives them “peace”. Only next time, they will attack a NATO country.

Because Russia did not want peace. “Why are Russia interested in a peace deal now then?”, you might ask. Because Trump is not going to negotiate them a peace “deal”. He is going to give them victory.

Exactly this
