Yeah, stopping people who openly say "Jews have to be eliminated!" from coming to Germany is definitely oppression... Why don't we also get rid of prisons and allow any criminal to live freely? After all, restricting someone&

In Germany a healthy young migrant coming from a country that is not at war gets more money per month in welfare help than retired teachers get in Romania. What is their incentive to work?

Funny, I perceive work in tech as having too much interaction! It definitely depends on your personality, but I have yet to encounter the magical "no interaction" software engineer job. Just when you get in a good zone, there&#x27

Must be a US-centric cultural thing -- I always thought this was just a random sequence of words the creators thought would be memorable and / or cute!

Especially 1 and 5! These are also a big part of my daily worries.

Well, that's what the common people in Germany are also asking themselves, but our beloved leaders (Merkel) are pushing the immigration over our heads for "humanitarian" reasons. And when I say "humanitarian", I mea

And yet, it will come to that: Europe just cannot take in tens of millions of people in a couple of years. Once the social systems start collapsing, even the unthinkable (armed borders and the like) will become an option. Nice? No. But wha

"Romania should not feel responsible and should not do as Germany dictates." Yes, I agree, and that should be the case for the rest of Europe. The problem is, when the rest of Europe does not do what Merkel wants (=accept tons of

"Perhaps Germany should instead focus on the pensioners in their country who have worked hard for 45 years and now live on the minimum pension." Yeah, I agree -- that's exactly what should be done! :-) A great part of the Ger

If all refugees behaved like that, with a willingness to integrate and understand our ways, I think there would be much less fear going around. The people start being afraid when they see that some of the so-called refugees are violent, loo

So what now: people are not allowed anymore to be afraid of something they have not experienced themselves? Haven't been hit by a car / experienced a nuclear strike / had cancer, but I am not allowed to fear them on principle

If they want to be treated as people, maybe they should not try to forcefully and violently break through borders, throw away food they are offered by volunteers because it's "not halal", or set fires to their own camps. To b

"Because they are human beings" is a naive answer. My parents have worked 45 years as teachers in Romania, and now they get the equivalent of 300$ monthly combined in pension money. Romania is also not such a cheap country as yo

This is often not about labels (though for some people it might be) and self-fulfilling prophecies. I am not afraid of human contact, I do it well, I even enjoy it, but I don't always want to do it. Plus, what I do in my free time is
