I learned that very few people actually care about the truth/leaked materials themselves. The only thing most people care about are revelations that are bad for the person they don't like. As soon as something is published that sh

If it fosters civil discussion because everything is discussed through the same lens that you agree with, which is the exact same view point as 4000 other feminist subreddits, then I'm not sure how it would add anything.

America really needs a federal law so that the advertised price is the price you pay and not a cent more. That's really all it takes. When I look for a AirBnB here in Germany, the advertised price must include everything and I mean eve

The language here has changed quite a bit in recent times. There used to be a clear distinction between people who flee immediate danger and people who leave their home country for a better life elsewhere. The terms refugee, migrant, econom

Are we already at the point where we support insurgents who then - out of nowhere - turn out to be even worse than the previous ruler? History really does repeat itself.

The initial post is about speech and you replied, that's why I'm asking.

I don't remember the FDP ever introducing anything that would restrict speech. Do you have an example for this?

It's anecdotal, but the people I know who absolutely support this kind of speech and these "disrupptions" are the first in line to complain about the speech of others. They're the ones who have campaigned for years to ba

It is so ridiculous that the exact same discussion has to be repeated again and again. The arguments haven't changed. "Bad thing is happening and we need this to ensure it doesn't anymore". The bad thing changes to what&

People are rethinking China because the US is closer than ever to being #2 economically and that's somehow unacceptable.

Well, T-Mobile is just way too expensive anyway. I pay 25€ for unlimited with Vodafone. It's not the best network but it works surprisingly well where I live. I get ~500mbps at work and ~300mbps at home. Much better upgrade than the on

Am I the only one who loves the way Apple handles subscriptions and the fact that they manage them and make the rules? I don't know a single other store or offering where getting rid of a subscription is easy. Not one. Netflix, Amazo

As someone not from the US, it's a bit amusing to see Americans cry about something they do on a daily basis, scrambling to find some excuse as to why it's okay when they do it but not okay when others do it. Their biggest fear is

But the US support for dictatorships hasn't changed between Obama and Trump (or Biden). The US will support any dictatorship that furthers US interests and will oppose any dictatorship that does the opposite. Thus it's perfectly v

The reason why the US doesn't like China is because the US dislikes the idea of being the #2 economy and losing control. The US has absolutely no "morals" so to say and is allied with/provides literal military support to

Well, that's just my opinion. Germany's infrastructure was attacked, Sweden said "We're not gonna share our findings with German intelligence". Not sure how there's any situation in which Germany should go to a

I'm very happy that Finland is part of the team now. Sweden can stay out of Nato for all I care unless they finally cooperate with Germany when it comes to the Nord Stream bombings instead of hiding their findings.

I still don't understand what you're getting at? If you get into a speed trap they also contact the person who registered the car, not the person driving. I don't see how this is any indication of hypocrisy here.

"I got caught doing illegal things" is not really an argument. You can argue that piracy shouldn't be illegal but the fact that you got caught doing it isn't at all an argument against anything.
