Great so then China is a US problem, go ahead we are neutral in that regard then. Ah also how about we don’t help each other anymore at all pls, that’s our respective problems.

You are highlighting how little you understand about diplomacy and most importantly alliances and friends.

Sincerely, apparently not a friend nor ally

How can you draw a conclusion to a comparison when one part is theoretical?

Pushed you closer to the EU? He put import Tarifs on our goods, there had never been a wider gap between Europa and the USA than under Trump. Most EU countries have made contingency plans for when Trump gets elected. His presidency is going to cost Europe likely in the high billions.

So sincerely fuck Trump and our relations right along with it. The amount of effort Biden hat to pour in just to mend the cracks was ridiculous. I am not sure that the upcoming cracks can be mended in one turn

Well of the day comes that fascism once against rules my country, then I will not back down. I’d rather die fighting and struggling against them my head held high than to bend my back and obey them. Fuck that, I’d rather not be remembered at all than to be remembered as a collaborator or neutral party.

I just ask you to remember every proud Trump vote until then. Rub it under their noses, ravel in their misery for that may be the only thing you can do. Since we, Europe, will probably suffer quite harshly under Trumps “diplomacy” I ask you to pick up our torch of redemption. At least make us feel better when laughing at their plight.

There’s an easy solution for that, you pay only fee of sum x for any surgery, the rest is paid by your insurance. They have the money, power and leverage to actually realise competition in the medical field

So even the fascist/ authotarian voters wouldn’t vote for the turd

Are you aware how much a printed newspaper costs nowadays? Are you also aware how few have a newspaper subscription or buy them at a stand?

Right? I was about to lose my mind because no one commentend that. This looks worse than the overlay of tele-shopping channels

There is a difference though, and that is that while babies tend to be in the vicinity of adults, that could potentially be terrorists, you cannot make the same assumption (if you were to actually be make it in the former case) about uniformed and distinctly marked UN-peacekeepers that have their own bases. Attacking that letter can not be collateral damage or be an attack on potential terrorists, while the former could with a lot of mental gymnastics be legitimised (though not morally justified).

And let’s be real, international diplomacy is the art of mental gymnastics at olympic level.

Who cares about evidence of voting, you work enough days of the year, just take it for heavens sake. If I add up all days there are federal holidays in my country I get nearly 2 months worth and that is without paid or unpaid leave days you get from the employer

Ok yeah that’s a different story, also the prices for passport and passport ID for first issues are ridiculous, that is twice as much as I’d have to pay to have my passport-issuing expedited, which I already find ridiculous. First issuing is done when you are mandated to be able to present an ID, i.e. at 14, and it’s free of charge as far as I can remember, everything after is a renewal. Having to register to vote is in and of itself, the self-proclaimed origin and beacon of democracy is an opt-in democracy which throws logs in your way to hinder you from voting apparently.

Voting by mail is also much simpler here, you just apply, a few weeks later you get the forms, no reason required - it is your constitutional right to vote after all.

And in any case, voting is always on a Sunday, which is always a mandatory holiday, most of the population doesn’t work that day. Hours are the same though. And I believe that all the IDs you have listed besides an actual ID and a passport are not enough to vote here. I am not sure if election papers are translated, but since the communal elections are the only ones open to non-Germans i.e. EU-citizens that live here, and speaking German is mandatory to get a citizenship, that is not that mich of an issue. Frankly speaking, while I see the point you raise, nowadays with camera translations, that is generally not that much of a hurdle.

Polling stations reflect the election areas, whereas each one represents one distinct area. They are directly linked to the population density.

The thing I tried pointing out is that there’s barely any difference between Germany and USA when it comes to IDs, they may have a different name but do the same thing, except for air travel, you’ll need an actual ID or passport for that. And you have to pay for most of them.

The only thing that is different is that you don’t habe a voter’s ID here, you vote by showing your voting invitation that is sent to registered Adress automatically and verifying your identity by presenting your ID or passport. The idea that you have to pay for voting is inherently idiotic, it is counter-logical

That is exactly the same as an I.D. in Germany for example

Not bad, has a few problems though, I would never want to be a banker, even worse an investment banker, yet those fuckers earn way more than I want them to

Let then then, it’s nice and cool in the morgue and with some luck you can become an undead

Frankly the easiest way to translate this is to use 2014 google translate. It won’t make sense, but the original didn’t either and AI-based or human translation would try to make sense of it and therefore be untruthful to the original

Also keep in mind that the normative number of people voting as women is drastically lower thereby significantly manipulating the actual ratio. This is, even when everyone would actually answer truthfully, by no means a factual representation

It’s actually called hebephilia when it’s about the sexual attraction to pubescent children between 11 and 16

It’s hebephilia not pedophilia, though the immorality doesn’t change
