  1. Your welfare state isn’t sustainable. Either people work more or you slash benefits. In reality, it’s probably going to be both and it is going to be forced on you by material conditions. I can’t see Germans actually voting away their welfare state

  2. Gazans live completely off of aid. They have literally made their entire existence as "We wont admit we lost a war we started in 1948" and somehow Western people think a functional country will ever come from this? These people have been radicalized from day one, and they draw in the entire islamic world. Such a sad existence, all for some misplaced hatred and pride.

  3.  @vornamenachname1572 - Childish insults like that is pretty par for course for people on the left now that the world sees their ideology doesn’t work.

  4. Europe has completely missed the tech wave, and this has contributed to them falling way behind the US economy.

  5.  @listener8228 - They complain all the time. They aren’t capable of building a prosperous society so they act like victims 24/7. No wonder progressives love them, sickening

  6.  @algernonsidney8746  - It was a response to the war, the Arab states said they were going to crush the Israelis and Arabs thought they would be able to return. Some of them were forced out but for the vast majority it was a result of neighboring states refusing to recognize Israel’s existence. Time and time again those countries try something, fail, and then go crying to the West about being oppressed. It is comical how this cycle keeps repeating. No wonder it is only the young and naive in the West who buy it. They will learn like everyone else has learned as they get older

  7. I noticed in the last interview, the woman never once mentioned the history of Palestinians starting civil wars in literally every single country they have been refugees in. Why is that?

  8.  @dave_sic1365 - You guys have far too many leftists to make the necessary reform. Your whole social security system is going to collapse before you guys realize your welfare state is unsustainable

  9. It is actually crazy the entitlement people have to come here illegally. It’s all emotion, no logic. They just say you’re a bad person if you don’t have open borders. It’s insanity. I am sick to death of progressives and their complete lack of intelligence

  10. @whitewinter4066  - Boston College. But there isn't that much to really know. There was no large scale displacement of Palestinians until after Arab countries attacked the nascent Israel. It's been a war Palestinians have refused to stop since that day.

  11.  @gaborrajnai6213 - Lol, it’s funny seeing Europeans act all nationalistic the second the US doesn’t do what they want.

  12. This isn’t true at all. The science is very clear, women have less kids because they don’t want to be a mom to a lot of kids. It’s a lifestyle choice. No government program is going to change that

  13.  @nadal1275 - No one takes Germany seriously when they call them far right. Deporting illegal immigrants is far right to many of the uber left Germans

  14. They have high taxes, regulations, and union membership. They have basically paralyzed their economy. They won’t change until their welfare system collapses around them

  15.  @kevinh7597 - are you guys children with no responsibility of your own? Quite an immature comment

  16. It’s funny how the guy basically passed over the real reasons. High taxes, high regulation, too much union power. He acted like those are afterthoughts when they are the reason Germany is in this mess. Germans haven’t realized yet that they can’t afford their welfare state. They don’t have the demographics nor the economy for it

  17. A cease fire is literally planned for by Hamas, it would be directly aiding their war strategy. What liberal democracy with any morals would deliberately aid a group like Hamas? War has causalities, but it is war, and suggesting Israel must do nothing for defense is insanity. I am glad my country is resolutely backing up Israel.

  18.  @vikramk6592  - You are already getting into skirmishes where the Chinese brought baseball bats wrapped in barb wire. No idea what reality you are living in

  19. You guys need 401k’s but you love your welfare state. You could have chosen to create a system like the US but you guys thought you were smarter and mocked Americans for worshipping capitalism. Now you get the results

  20. If that happens, the whole world is going down in nuclear fire.

  21.  @yves2932  - Just an FYI, that study was one team's version of how a nuclear winter would unfold, and many scientist have questioned its validity. A small scale nuclear exchange would very likely not kill a lot of people outside of the blast zone. Some radiation would be sprayed about, but it wouldn't cause a world ending nuclear winter.

  23. Germans are absolutely coddled, are you kidding? They have some of the most restrictive labor laws in the world. If you can’t hack it in Germany, you won’t make it anywhere

  24. ​ @invictus4431 - Israelis and Arabs both offered lands where there was no country before. Arabs try to destroy Israel from day one. They try again and again. They refuse to admit defeat and now rely on gullible Westerners for their strategy. It is pretty simple.

  25. I guess it’s everyone’s fault except the people themselves. And then they wonder why they don’t advance

  26.  @mychannel3774  - No, you are talking about nebulous and vague concepts which, according to you, are the cause of all these problems. It would be like the US blaming Afghanistan for all its actions post 9/11 because they attacked. It is an immature viewpoint more worried about absolving people of responsibility rather than looking at reality

  27. @ - That’s the same misinformation from the famous Austrian painter. He thought growth meant taking part of a fixed pie, but that isn’t what economic growth is. Europeans make so many excuses for their bad economy it’s crazy. They are so nationalistic it blinds them

  28. Lebanon is already a failed state, it really can’t get more broken than it is. Also, why do you guys always throw around buzzwords instead of intelligent arguments? Well, we all know why, because you have been brainwashed and aren’t that intelligent, but could you at least be quiet and stop embarrassing the west?

  29. The model of social democracy isn’t looking so hot right now. It doesn’t work with a rock bottom fertility rate. Ironic that feminists are all about a welfare state while also encouraging behavior which destroyed it.

  30. Germany won’t be able to afford its welfare state. Pensions, unemployment benefits, something is going to need to be slashed to the bone. They have bad demographics, high regulation, and high taxes. Not a bright future ahead

  31. I'm surprised people don't think capitalism can handle this. It will just channel human effort into service sectors. It will be very efficient.

  32.  @AverageDoomer69  - Jesus, the Egyptian guy I know says the same thing as you. He is a RAGING anti-semite. I dont think people from the ME understand how batshit crazy they look to Westerners.

  33. Yep. Germans are so spineless when it comes to this issue

  34. @theboom - Why would people be bothered in the first place?

  35.  @guleiro - You guys always take about minerals as if they power the economy. Africa still hasn’t learned it is about people and institutions, not natural resources.

  36. I would say we should just bomb them, but that wouldn't accomplish anything. Iran knows we can flatten them, but it won't happen as long as they don't get too out of line. This was bad, but not too far out of line.

  37.  @willcerf757 - No, Biden made an app to call illegal immigrants legal and simpletons fall for it

  38.  @darylwilliams7883 - Haha, no it can’t. Europe has declined a lot compared to the US abd china. It is a bloc addicted to welfare and lax working conditi js with a demographic time bomb. You guys are finished

  39.  @WillEede - Sorry dude, you don’t have any other options. You guys have been trying to come up with miracle schemes which don’t touch your massive welfare state for years now. There are none. You have to cut expenses and get a lot of people off the government tit. If you don’t, it will just make everyone poorer. You are letting your lower class ruin your country because they emotionally blackmail you. There are no other options, either Argentina becomes leaner or you should prepare for an entire lifetime of economic crisis

  40.  @henli-rw5dw - Wealth disparity means nothing if the overall economy gets better. The alternative is everyone getting poorer equally. If you let the lower class hold the country hostage, that means you have your worst minds and worst workers driving the bulk of your country’s future. That is a horrible idea and one of the big reasons Argentina sucks so bad now

  44. The world is turning multi polar and you want to be the weak third bloc? Seems like a rather short sighted foreign policy idea. With climate change countries are only going to get more belligerent.

  45. ​ @blitcut9712 - You realize that just because there aren't clear boundaries doesn't mean races don't exist, right? How do you even think DNA ancestry sites work? Haplogroups are whats usually used to determine different phenotypes. It is the social scientists who say it's all a social construct. They say that about everything l. And they are wrong on just about everything

  46.  @samhartford8677 - You guys tariff Chinese EVS because you can’t compete. Now you are mad other countries use tariffs? The hypocrisy is astounding

  48. It’s hilarious how some Europeans act like Hezbollah was attacking for Palestine and just being rational. They attacked before Israel even responded, their motivation has been the destruction of Israel the whole time. They don’t react logically, they take any opportunity they can get to try and destroy Israel. What has happened to the intelligence in Europe? So many Europeans are making fools of themselves these days

  49.  @pedroroque8681 - Blaming the west feels good because it absolves one of personal responsibility. You’ll notice failing countries tend to do that a lot.
