Comments by "Golag Is watching you" (@golagiswatchingyou2966) on "Into Europe" channel.

the main problem I'm seeing with the issue of refugees and migration in general is that it's unsustainable, regardless on who takes care of them or who houses them, the reality is that people will keep coming due to climate change, due to wars (sometimes caused by the USA, France, UK or internal conflicts) and Europe being closest to these danger zones (Africa, the Middle east, Central Asia) it will remain a major issue that neither side can realy solve. No migration side is wrong not for not wanting migrants but for not realising just how difficult it is to house and maintain such amount of people who either just want to survive or want to get ahead in life (we all do, that's what humans do), however the open migration side is also wrong because of the problems and costs it brings with it to western nations as well as spark the flames of resentment and nationalism which is not good for a European level solution which is what's actually needed. I would then propose a different solution, one that is unpopular and will set a new geopolitical reality that some of it's big players aren't welcoming of, EU Military peacekeeping missions, what this would mean is the creation of a legitimate EU level military force, to be placed or engage near the entry points of migration flows and outside of EU countries like Morroco, Turkey, Tunnisia, Libya, so on where they would be tasked with maintaining order, help screen refugees and host refugee camps where they can then be transported to host nations or be able to integrate into the local societies, economies or develop skills needed later in life to rebuild their country of origin if possible. the reason why this solution is unlikely to be taken is that the EU does not have the power or right to use such a military force, that it would be a more federated EU type of solution and that it would project an image of neo-collonialism to the rest of the world, as well as agitate certain geopolitical players by seeing a modern EU wide military force near their borders potentially but untill such a long term solution if implemented this will continue to be an issue and it's going to become much, much worse compared to 2015, as we move into the 2030s and 2040s, better to get to work with it now for when it's needed than the scramble later when shit inevitably hits the fan.

You don't have to be racist to see the problems with islam, racists have just been ahead by decades on the rest.

@glif1360 it's a policy from the 90s that's outdated as hell, when GMO'S first came into the market it was uncertain how safe they were and for what purpose they would be used, also certain lawsuits could be made if GMO crops got pulinated by non-gmo crops so to not have to deal with the legal complications which in Europe are much more complicated than the US they simply banned GMO's and never changed that policy, though it has loosened it's policies on GMO crops being used in food products like Soy and what not.

Adam Somethings loves to blame the ''far right'' for all problems facing Europe but rarely does he look into his own sides actions that allowed for it, remember it was Angela Merkels actions that promoted and encouraged millions of migrants to try their luck coming to Europe, Orban simply responded like many European nations did by blocking his own borders while sending the refugees to other nations around him to be their problem, Adam simply blames Orbans response to Merkels actions and ignores the response from the rest of Europe, Hungary is a tiny country, Greece, Spain, Turkey are all far more guilty of allowing and promoting refugees from going further into Europe and Merkel is the main cause of it. blaming Orban is not a solution, the real, mature solution would have been for the EU and it's main leaders like Merkel and Macron not to be fucking idiots and actually using their militaries and influence as well as ask for money from the EU and other nations to host refugees outside of EU or close to hot spot centers, which they actually did do after months of problems, terrorist attacks and sexual attacks, if I could see this coming around the age of 19 years old, how come Merkel and friends were this stupid? things to think about.

@sm3675 not realy, what we realy need to stop is aging and invest in automation, you don't need a massive population but having a young population with stable birthrates and high education in new fields with few old people would be best. Many economists today only look at consumption as marker of economic growth, while they should be looking at value added growth, technological development and stable government policies and property rights. Many migrants today in the west are a burden not a benefit as most of them are low skilled labor, what we should be doing is have immigration based on merit and ability as well as invest in means to raise birthrates like in France and Sweden. The worst thing we could do is raise taxes, promote mass migration of low skilled labor, while ignoring the aging problem, lucky for us old people tend to die off first with disease outbreaks, sadly our governments issue lockdowns for all instead of just the elderly. Our governments are quite incompetent when compared to the rest of the world.

 @Leunenkoenig more like the right side has been right for decades and people should listen to them if they want actually solutions and stop being boomers with no balls.
14
@ResearchingTheFuture I don't think any political party in Germany could be considered rightwing by any standard.
14
what has she done that's positive? she's been quite a disaster, though not as bad as some other leaders like in sweden or the UK still that's not much to be proud of.
12
I don't remember waves of migrants coming during colonialism, it only realy started to come when colonialism ended and most of these regions fell back into communist, fascistic, dictatorial or just simply authoritarian governments. though to be fair the USA and some allies like France and the UK did cause some of the problems in the region there but while they like to cause problems with selling of arms or backing rebels and what not, few are willing or able to take the hard steps to send military forces to try and rebuild and bring order to these war ravaged countries, in the case of the USA they tried making democracies in places they have to reason to exist in, while bringing down dictatorships that were actually quite stable for the region, the west is naive yet at the same time unwilling to make the hard choices nessisary by great power status, China is more than willing to fill that roll and they don't care about human rights abuses.

how? how is nationalism going to destroy Europe when Europe is made up of nationalist states to begin with? if anything Merkel's policies and falures led to brexit and a rise in nationalism because her international policies and multiculti agenda has caused so much damage and shame for everyone not just the german people. in fact a proper goal of the EU is to replace nationalism with pan-european nationalism, so the issue is not with nationalism itself but the policies that go against both these view points, hell even the nationalists have started to realise that Brexit ain't that great so now they want to make a more united front against policies from the EU that undermine their nations well being, see Salvini's plan in the EU.

 @NiloNova yes, remigration.
9
So you want those people to remain poor forever? It's an unrealistic delusion to think that's fair or going to happen. You have to come up with a better solution.

well I would say she also made Germany much more Authoritarian and oppressive, she's not exactly a bastion of free speech or liberty which is quite lacking in germany, she also kinda messed up nord stream 2, not just the refugee crisis but also her own social policies, and she has done nothing for the high level of corruption with some of her finance ministers which makes hungary or polish corruption look like a joke. only good thing i can realy say about her is how she handled the greek debt crisis which made major reforms to greek economy, it's not that great but making the best from a bad situation. her policies and during the refugee crisis directly led to Brexit so you can't say she kept the EU together as a whole, perhaps it's being harsh but other leaders with worse economies and more problems did better than she did while being in charge of Europe's biggest economy and has realy hurt the pride and self respect of most Europeans and germans. hope her replacement learns from her mistakes, below avarage leadership i would say.
8
@Primotef I agree, though in the short term we have to look for our own security first and improve the situation in those regions long term, though that's easier said than done, only time will tell if it can be done or not.

You don't want to be as poorly made or biased as Vox or Bloomberg, it's not bad but it's also not perfect, I find Caspian Report to be far more accurate

Not fast enough.

@RoScFan you just keep telling yourself that while not understanding anything of Brazil, how it's government works or how economics in general works. if you want them to stay out of the amazon rainforrest you have to make them an offer of compensation (that being in the billions if not trillions) while also offering a government solution to give them more alternatives. I love to hear your ideas but unless you imagine invading the country, overthrowing it's government, creating a huge reservation zone where no humans are allowed in and basically enslave the population to be idk serfs who aren't allowed to move off their little plot of land while working the fields or something then I doubt it's going give any long term solution.
6
Enlightened European societies? What's that?
6
Angela Merkel has to be one of the worst leaders of Germany ever, I can't realy recall anything she did went well, perhaps the greek debt crisis but that was still very costly and not realy solved. it's great that she is finaly going away, though not any real leader in germany exists to fix the mess she left behind, though to be fair, the german people themselves seem to be the problem, they kept voting for her so clearly something is wrong in the country.
6
did she not also throw a journalist in germany in prison and romanian guest workers isolated, had to give up their pasports and we worked so much they tried to flee to then be taken by the gesta- I mean the german police? the more things change, the more they stay the same. support human rights? yeah the right to be abused, like the new years sexual attacks on woman, as well as a bunch of terrorist attacks, it's not a good look for her in any metric.

 @jasonhaven7170 crisis will continue as long as weakness and cowards rule.

@Genexperiment100 please watch the video i posted and the concept of molten salt reactors, there is no reason for you to spread false information, nuclear energy is very safe and already kills way less people compared to coal and nations like France produce over 70% of their energy with nuclear power. not to mention far futuristic things such as fusion. nations like Germany are moving backwards, while France already has embraced the future, France has met their co2 reduction quota, while germany has not and has reopened coal plants, which actually kill people. please don´t spread misinformation, it´s actually very harmfull for everyone, esspecially the planet.
5
It's never over, this is just another dark chapter in European history.

@zeke2408 indeed because it's less biased and more accurate than his video.

@Janoip I think she is still one of the worst leaders of Germany, no real long term vision for people to believe in, basicaly abandoned the youth of Germany and enforcing policies that will have long term ripple effects that will tear apart the german society and position in the world. The next leaders of Germany will be mostly busy trying to fix the mess she left behind, with new crisis in the near future, few will be able to do much of anything. She in many ways mirrors Tony Blair in enforcing policies that will effect and ruine the country she was suppose to govern, Germany did not even meet their co2 reduction quota's, phased out nuclear energy, I expect a lot of political instability and dread in the german society as they deal with how things were left. Her only saving grace is that she could have been much worse. Now it's easy to just look down on her mistakes and what she could have done better but how about this point that few people bring up, why has she not attempted to push for basic liberal rights? Why has she empowered the authoritarians? Antagonized the nationalists, divided the country, done away with clean forms of energy in favor of mob rule and gas pipelines with another authoritarian state called Russia? Why do all this if she is a liberal and focused on western values? She barely has any, all Merkel realy seemed to care about is power and her actions made major problems worse. I could go on but it's just sad to see this woman be seen as some model politician, while I would describe her more as cunning, cold and calculating, without vision or long term plans. The AFD might have some bad policies here and there but I rather give them a shot compared to Merkel, it's sad to see what Germany has become, esspecialy remembering the optimism of the early 2000s, making way for the sad state of Europe today.

@abdiabdi3225 you do realise nothing is stopping those countries from, idk changing their borders or moving around? The main issue has nothing to do with collonialism at all but basic economics like property rights, law and order and outside investments, african nations that fell to communism became poor, while nations that embraced some form of capitalism thrived, before they were under western administration, laws with some level of investments, slavery was outlawed which came back when the western powers left, along with many people fleeing towards the west along with them. Truth is people don't want to hold african nations to the same standards as the rest of the world and aid to africa, corporations and governments love to exploit their situation, like all things they have to solve their issues themselves, nobody is going to solve it for them.
4
it won't solve anything and in fact will destabalize the EU, nor is the no migrants what so ever a viable solution, the only true solution is a middle ground in which only people that will benefit Europe's economies should be allowed in and be allowed to work and perhaps become full citizens and everyone else has to be kept out or tolorated voluntary by nations willing to take them and provide for them but Europe is under no obligation to have to host them or even provide for them, we do so because it is in our best interest not to have desperate and hungry refugees close to European borders but our obligation is towards the people of Europe first, everything else is second, that's the only way this works long term.

Lula literally did jail time for corruption, why would the Brazilian people elect such an idiot? It's also not in western Europe's favor. The best case situation would be for Bolsonaro to compremise to the EU-Mer deal or find someone within his own party or opposition to try and help elect, Lula is a joke in my view but some nations seem to like being seen as jokes I think, same in western Europe.
3
@johnpijano4786 yeah stupid socialists do, it's the same reason why the germans keep voting for the greens despite them not actually reaching their climate goals and needing to keep coal plants open because their policies suck so much, likewise a big part of brazilian people just love and want more corruption, crime and crooks in power. but again the majority of the people will continue to follow Bolsonaro, the leftist will likely try and kill him again though, so him winning again depends more on how well armed and how good they can aim at Bolsonaro, otherwise I can't see him losing but who knows for sure?

@deniz3029 Dutch person here, he sounds very dutch to me but I assume he must have spend some time with other languages.

@trthib most people in the EU don't even know GMO's are banned in the EU and it's mostly a policy that's been enforced since the 90s that's never been changed because of course it's not, it's the EU. perhaps in the future that might change but right now very unlikely, not because of any actual scientific or economic reason, it's just government policy that nobody cares about to protest for or vote over, so they don't care.

@lynn4062 yes, I do know, you don't, that's the problem. What happened was that European powers left due to the USA withholding funds from the Marshall plan if they did not abandon their colonies, many of these colonies fell into dictatorships, local warlords or turned to communism, the borders drawn by the Europeans and then local leaders taking them over left a very unstable situation, many of the investments into the colonial economy vanished and were not maintained by the local leaders. You have to understand how much these places benefited by western rule for a long time compared to the state they were in before, you also have to take into account if the colonial economy was settler based or exploitative based, the Congo is a good example of the later while south africa is a good example of the former. Western powers did very little to fuck up the situation and in fact allowed massive population growth due to improved farming and connection with the rest of the world, Zimbabwe used to be the breadbasket of Africa before communist Mugabe came into power, the only two things the western powers did that was very bad was 1. Leave and 2. Kept the borders as they were instead of dividing the lands to local leaders based on ethnic, language and vital resources lines. Though regardless the situation was bound to decline and stagnate due to the vastness of Africa itself, the massive populations there and the lack of modern nation states and institutions there, why this myth then of the west becoming rich due to colonialism? Because it's easy and takes responsability away from the natives and blames the west, even though the west was already rich before the scramble for africa, did not make up a big part of their economies and after decolonisation the western powers thrived economically while the former colonies stagnated. Whatifalthist has some video's on the subject if your interested.

 @jasonhaven7170 the UK is a third world country, close to fourth world country.
3
Bolsonaro will likely win relection anyways, killing the deal would be rather stupid and pointless for both sides, they have much to gain and simply pretending like populism is going to stop such treaties is bizzar, perhaps the EU green new deal is the treatie that needs reform.
3
@Svensk_Person how would you call a regime that lockd up prisoners, empowers sanitary fascism, has little to no free speech and openly talks with Mark Zuckerberg on how to censor and silence her own people and opposition. Also forcing millions of migrants on her own people, paid for by her own people, many of whom then die in terrorist and knife attacks by said people being brought in by her. If that's not the rule of an authoritarian, then I don't know what is.
3
Pretty much yeah and often times hurting their own causes, many of them being against nuclear energy, planting windmiles that cost a lot, kill local animals like birds and still not meet their co2 reduction quota's. You know the saying, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Man most comments here are years behind of the far right, you people are so out of touch and on a losing streak. I just hope our corrupt leaders don't ban democracy when they inevitably lose to the far right, the only sane and forward thinking side of European politics today. We will be free from tyranny and stop being slaves to globalism and our corrupt leaders. Remember islam is but a pawn of the elites who hate their own citizens, our own leaders and fellow citizens (mostly boomers) are the real enemies of civilization.
2
@kosa9662 yeah because they were trying to make a democracy there, the missions were all over the place and not very clear, there are realistic goals and there are fairytail goals, the USA went for the later one for 20 years in Afghanistan and we saw how quickly that fell apart.

@gozden123 your comments got censored I think. Here is a link to Caspian report in case that's what you wanted. https://youtu.be/eNG4t3xNK44

@henkpost3379 I prefer Sea-German though swamp german has a nice ring to it. ''what are you doing in my swamp!'' - me to Mark Rutte
2
@Aesandar they are just authoritarians, most likely any counter political movement will be just as authoritarian, it takes great wisdom and skill to please everyone and pick the right side at the right time, Merkel picked badly, multiple times and it shows.
2
@trthib let me ask you this, when was the last time you saw a protest anywhere in Europe in favor of GMO's? And when was the last time you saw a political parties platform be about introducing GMO's? If the people don't demand it and it can't bring votes to political parties it's a non issue and if it's a non issue then most people aren't aware of the potential benefits. You can say that's a biased observation but I think it's a pretty accurate observation. Also yes I live in Europe, the Netherlands to be exact, most Europeans care more about football (or soccer if your american) than politics
2
@Dear_Mr._Isaiah_Deringer GMO in food products or GMO crops grown in the EU? Because the former has been there for a very long time, the later would be new to my understanding.
2
You really think the USA will invade us again if we reject their globalist leaders?
2
@unnanointedonesufi globalism is tyranical for most nations not just Europe, globalisation is not the same as globalism, globalism is the agenda of the elites, against the people for the benefit of the elites, burdening the poor and working classes, it's closer to neo-feudalism more than anything else.
2
@Tommi414 by lending them money because they had stupid policies and corruption in the country? Not to mention poor tax collection? Greece destroyed Greece, Germany and the rest of the EU had to try and fix the situation, it's not like Germany invaded or caused the economic crisis. You could argue she could have done things better but honestly I can't think of any good solutions for greece, it was the least worst choice she made I would say.
2
@juanfvt1000 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1QmB5bW_WQ&t=211s you might find this video interesting to dispel some of the common myths people believe of nuclear energy, most of those myths are based off things like simpsons cartoons, green peace or other activist groups.
2
6:10 this part is total bullshit, he is very popular and has dealt with the covid-19 hysteria very well, compared to western Europe, countries like Brazil are very poor compared to western Europe, they can't pay for such economic decline and if Bolzanaro had done this he would have been ousted already. I think you base this of what western media is "reporting" on while Bolzanaro himself and his party are organising meetings with thousands of people to cheer his party on, he's not going to lose, unless some crazy leftist tries to kill him again.
2
@Angel24Marin Hahaha sure, because a 99,8% survival rate which Bolsonaro also had gotten is clearly going to effect the election results, not say the extremist lockdowns that made millions poor, created mass hysteria and psychological damage, clearly. Man it's been over a year and some people actualy still think like this, it's a good laugh il tell you that much.
2
@Janoip look into her finance ministers, it's in the billions and that's just one very well known sector, let alone what we will find out later after she is gone. Hungary is also corrupt but there it's not as bad in terms of amount being stolen, though it's the same methodes for the most part.

@SuperLusername im pretty sure clean drinking water is a health and national security related issue not enviromental. except perhaps how it's gathered or created in the case of desalination plants.

@FOLIPE recently? did south america not have a war that one time over a football match? and before that they had the second biggest slave trade in the world, next to the Turks i think, the cartels run most rural areas and cities. seems like recently they started trying to be more like real nations, compared to the past but idk.
1
@r-t9266 seems to have worked after ww2, sure you can't go in doing stupid stuff like trying to make a democracy where it does not belong or try and hinder economic growth for the locals but you can have very cheap, easy to understand missions that help to maintain peace, a presence and have hard power projection in regions you know are explosive. Regime change is an easy objective, another one is support for local (puppet) governments, the USA has many military bases around the world who engage in training or peacekeeping missions with little to no threat to themselves with the exception of places like Iraq or before a few months ago Afganistan. The idea that military power and suppression of hostile forces does not create peace is very silly to me.
1
Egert Roos pretty much, same with africans in africa or americans in the USA.
1
@richardkister4507 doubt, population projections simply maintain current momentum and don't take into accounts variables and local conditions, if Nigeria gets 400 million people their nation would collapse into civil war.
1
@gozden123 if population growth was all that ever mattered, India and China would have been the world's superpowers long before Europe or the USA. The older populations will largely take care of themselves, the main issue is will they drag the youth down with them? Right now that is a big yes but can't go on forever. People in Europe have stupid leaders and stupid political ideologies, one part older generations stuck thinking in a bygone era and the other part delusional marxist and progressive goobaldy goo thinking that does not result in wealth or competent long term planning. The only plus side going for Europe is they realise they have to work together if they want to surivive in this new world and have functioning democracies which Nigeria and most of Africa is not, if you think they have a very bright future ahead of them then I have some bridges to sell to you.
1
@richardkister4507 we all do, most parts of the world are aging and others are rapidly expanding to the point of causing civil wars and massive humanitarian crisis.
1
@obrnenydrevokocur9344 you are correct, aid does not do much, it mostly goes into the pockets of corrupt leaders or only has minor effect when it's given to the right people. Using one's own armed forces and funds directly gives much more hard power as well as soft power influence in the region, it also allows the potential of regime change if progress becomes too slow or if a dictatorship becomes too authoritarian or genocidal, what's important is to have realistic expectations of such missions, you aren't going to create democracies out of thin air, it won't magically solve economic problems but what it can bring is stability and investments for long term economic growth which may lead to long term stability, sometimes it's going to work and sometimes it's going to fail but not trying or acting is always going to fail for your (pan)national interest.
1
@r-t9266 not sure what you mean, by those metrics everyone is which means the statement means nothing.
1
@pixelghostclyde8717 what peace keeping missions? The UN can't do shit and the USA is not really focused on keeping peace but nation building, at times when they did get involved like in the balkan wars they largely stabalized the region and prevented refugees crisis, it does not always work but it's better than doing nothing, the worst policy is arming terrorists and rebels which the USA did in the middle-east which caused much of the current refugees to come to Europe.
1
@JohnDoe-gf5he lol talk about missing the point.
1
@r-t9266 people stop fighting because one powerfull force stops them from fighting, is that not peace?
1
@gozden123 colonies actually cost a lot of money, Europe was already the richest continent before major colonialism and Germany became very powerfull because it did not have costly colonies. After ww2 and decolonisation Europe experienced an economic miracle while former colonies largely collapsed. Science, technology and new ideas of government is what made Europe so great, the only exception could be the discovery of america which gave Europe access to new resources and new plants like the patato to grow faster in population.
1
@gozden123 sure, whatever.
1
@gozden123 just there is so much bullshit in your ''arguments'' it's just not worth my time. try watching some video's by Caspian report and whatifalthistory about how the western world works and perhaps then we can have a conversation. gl
1
@gozden123 sure whatever, go watch those channels and then come back.
1
Nemusis 999 how to stop aging? Let them die off, we spend too much on the elderly and need to promote more childbirths of our own, aging is just an excuse used by the leftwing to justify unlimited immigration. Who do you think BMW bribes to get more migrants? Most of this is pushed by far leftwing extremists and some corporations, it's only a benefit to the political class and some corporations, everyone else loses big time.
1
@johnpijano4786 and you believed them? wow talk about out of touch and naive.
1
@johnpijano4786 all german parties are like Third way german parties, they all are authoritarian and don't have many rights or liberties. in essence they are a controled democracy and are very far left, the greens, the SDP, de linke, the ironic part is most of the ''far right'' parties seem to be the least totalitarian and more about being actually free as a nation.

NGO'S are the enemy, they must be banned.

@Alaryk111 huh, interesting.

@henkpost3379 helaas weet ik niet wie hem goed zou kunnen vervangen, Geert Wilders? No way, Therry? Te jong. Nederland is een zooitje maar nog niet zo slecht als de UK of Duitsland. Nederland is een beetje half half, ene helft trots, andere helft op de knieën.
1
@henkpost3379 heb niet veel vertrouwen in D66, weet helaas niet veel van haar platform dus kan niet zeggen of ze het goed of slecht zou doen maar zelf ben ik meer van het andere spectrum en fan van Therry Boudet maar net als jou kandidaat ben ik niet altijd eens met zijn plannen, voornamelijk ben ik het eens met zijn plannen voor kern energie, belasting verlaging en meer nederlandse identiteit. ik heb eerder ander perspectief dat ik liever iemand wil die ervaring heeft en niet te jong is, vaak zijn mensen die erg jong zijn te idealistische en niet pragmatische beste van beiden zou ideal zijn maar niemand heeft echt die profiel op dit moment. voornamelijk vind ik dat nederland het rijkste maar vooral ook het meest innovatief en vrijste land van Europe zou kunnen worden, als we Franse Kern centrales hadden, Duitse wetenschap en Amerikaanse vrijheid hadden van menigsuiting en wapens dan zou ik erg blij zijn maar ik snap best dat de meeste nederlanders die visie niet echt delen volgens mij, het is wat het is.
1
@henkpost3379 Dat is Kraut die ken ik wel ja, hij is een beetje ....mmmmm hoe kan ik dit goed zeggen, hij is een beetje controversiële, lang verhaal waar ik liever niet in ga maar in het kort was hij erg links qua politiek, maakte vaak video's over de "far right" en "alt right" en vervolgens maakte hij een aantal vergissingen maar weigerde die toe te geven en vervolgens ging ie andere mensen in zijn eigen vrienden groep de schuld geven van zijn fouten, toen had hij zijn kanaal verwijderd en ging hij weg voor iets van 2 jaar, nu maakt hij video's over geschiedenis, vooral over Turkije, niet heel slecht maar nog steeds erg linkse oogpunt in mijn mening. Ik hou zelf niet van socialisme en haat communism maar snap ook wel dat er vele versies van zijn, in Zweden bijvoorbeeld hebben ze een erg sterke vrije markt maar vele sociale programma's, zelf zou ik meer dat soort programma's en geld gebruiken voor steun aan families en het leger (Zweden heeft vrijwel geen leger) maar dat soort socialism is nog soort van acceptabel. Helaas zoals je zelf zegt leven we in het tijdperk van progressive socialism, wat eerlijk gezegd het meeste op fascism lijkt, met knokploegen om mensen te intimideren, zaken in de fik zetten, normalizeren van "white privilage" en mensen verdelen over ras, culture, geslacht, derde golf feminisme en cencuurschap via big tech corporaties, het is echt verschrikkelijk allemaal. Ik was zelf in mijn tienerjaren links maar ben door dit soort zaken meer en meer naar extreem rechts gegaan en meer liberterisch geworden over dingen zoals vrijheid van meningsuiting, wapen wetten, identiteit, markten en versterken van familie waardes en militaire zaken, het enige waar ik met progressiven en linkse mensen in het algemeen eens mee ben is klimaat verandering, bescherming van dieren, natuur en Kern energie, maar helaas focussen vele nog op dingen zoals wind energie waar ik niet echt voorstander van ben. Hou ook niet van schuld naratief van onze verleden, ja het was niet altijd goed maar was ook niet altijd slecht, beste is om het achter ons te laten en kijken naar de toekomst, we kunnen vooreeuwig schuldig voelen en onze zondes omkopen door geld te geven maar dat lost niks op en worden beiden zwak en zielig van, het moet op een gegeven moment ophouden, hoe sneller hoe beter.
1
@henkpost3379 ik zou eerder pro Malcolm X zijn dan BLM, blm zijn zo zielig ken een zo half zwarte vent die in 2016 al hun uitschold omdat ze zo zielig zijn en aanstellen, terwijl ze bedelen voor geld en rasische dingen zeggen, de leiderschap boven op de top zijn ook zelf uitgesproken marxisten en krijgen miljarden van corporaties en leven in luxe terwijl ze niks terug geven aan de gemeenschap waar ze zogenaamd voor staan, sterker nog ze verdelen mensen om juist minder te geven aan de zwarte gemeenschap en branden delen van hun eigen samenleving naar de grond terwijl de elite en corporations klappen in hun handen, wat voor een neppen beweging is dit? Ik zou ze niet steunen ze zijn gewoon politieke marroneten van de democratische partij.

@henkpost3379 over de video, ja democraten verdiende te verliezen maar ze zijn niet veel beter geworden in 2020, sterker nog ze lijken nog meer in de autoritaire vorm gekomen te zijn, zonder covid-19 en hulp van de media en big tech zouden ze nooit gewonnen hebben denk ik, verwacht niet dat ze zullen winnen in de midterm of in 2024, Joe Biden is ook gewoon niet echt president waardig, zeg van Trump wat je wilt maar hij heeft een aura van superioriteit, eigen mening, doorzettingsvermogen en visie van Amerika die positief is, Biden komt over als een npc en tijdelijke figuur om uiteindelijk Kamala Harris als eerste zwarte vrouw op de troon te krijgen, alsof dat op zo manier zo geweldig is, best wel zielig vind ik en niet echt iets waar vrouwen trots op zouden moeten zijn als dat gebeurt.

@henkpost3379 Trump deed het eigenlijk heel goed, geen nieuwe oorlogen, vrijheid van meningsuiting beschermen, was tegenstander van de media voor 4 jaar, zijn staat schuld is pas erg omhoog gegaan door covid lockdowns, belasting verlaging van elke klassen rjjk of arm, deregulatie, veel meer mensen aan het werk gekregen en over Biden, Biden heeft niks veranderd van Trumps buitenlandse beleid richting China, betere relaties met Europa is ook niet echt verbeterd. Eerlijk gezegd de enige reden waarom Trump verloren had was door covid-19, 4 jaar lang media heksen jacht en verdere radicalisering van de linkse mensen daar, die politici daar waren pas schandelijk, oproepen tot geweld en intimidatie, hele zaken en huizen in de fik gegooid hele jaar door, de bestorming van congres was niks, sterker nog burgers die geen wapens hadden waren om het leven gebracht, mensen zitten nu voor lange tijd in de cel en de linkse hooligans en media gebruiken het als justificatie voor nog meer mensen onderdrukking, als je denkt dat Trump erg was ben ik bang dat in de VS je nog veel erger gaat krijgen als dit de norm is van linkse partijen zijn, de rechtse partijen lopen eigenlijk achter op radicalisering. Heb zelf ook weinig vertrouwen in de verkiezingen juist door de covid-19 verandering van stem gelding plus de media en big tech die zich inmengde met de verkiezingen, Rusland deed niks in 2016 maar deze andere groepen, verbittered door hun verlies in 2016 hebben alles op alles gezet om Trump te ondermijnen, zelfs zijn Twitter stop gezet, van de president! Dat is pas schandelijk en reden voor anti trust rechtszaken. Ik vind Biden echt een idiot, die weinig zal waar maken en hoogst waarschijnlijk een 1 term president zal worden, Trump kan nog terug komen in 2024 of iemand aanwijzen als zijn vervanging met een andere soort visie. De VS is sowieso een zooitje, Trump is eerder een gevolg daarvan dan de oorzaak en dat zal zeker nog terug komen als de innerlijke corruptie en incompetentie binnen de regering niet opgelost zal worden.

@henkpost3379 de enige sexism die ik zie zijn voornamelijk vrouwen die mannen haten of vrouwen die andere vrouwen haten, vrijwel niemand probeert vrouwen hun rechten af te namen en terug de keuken in te sturen, het is allemaal gebakken lucht en oppervlakte geluid van glazen plafond breken zonder eigenlijk iets te doen dat het bijzonder maakt, het is eigenlijk een beetje triest en creëert denk ik meer twijfel aan feminisme dan wordt gerealiseerd want duidelijk komen niet de beste vrouwelijke leiders naar boven in dit systeem, vrouw, man, hermafrodiet? Who cares? Wat belangrijk is is hoe ze regeren en op dit moment denkt vrijwel niemand daar aan.

@henkpost3379 Bernie Sanders is niet echt een Scandinavische model socialist en heeft in het verleden ook hele erge dingen gezegd over brood lijnen in communistsch landen geweldig vinden, ze moeten echt iemand anders vinden voor een wat praktische socialism, doe mij maar Andrew Yang dan, die heeft tenminste visie.

@doodie2025 yes, most of Eastern Europe is aware of that due to both Russia and Germany, not to mention the Ottomans.

@lynn4062 neo-colonialism is probably worse than actual colonialism due to not having to invest at all into the local economies and being mostly explotative based, settler colonies often had better laws, better economies and setting up institutions for locals to use. Most people don't understand anything of this continent and while the Europeans were racists for sure and did exploit the local population as cheap labor, we do the exact same thing today still, when labor costs are cheap you will find exploitation, the main focus should be if the people are getting enough wealth to get ahead and the education and government systems that lead to multigenerational wealth, if you fall into the hands of brutal warlords or communists those dreams go byebye. Lucky for some parts of Africa they are doing just that, places like Nigeria and Rowanda are improving, though south africa seems close to collapse. There is also the potential east african federation, that might shake things up.
1
@lynn4062 this is simply not true, the Europeans could barely survive in Africa due to the enviroment and diseases there, the continent is vast beyond any other continent, it has barely any shore or deep water shoreline that go into it, the Europeans were only able to supply themselves somewhat due to railroads which were the main investment to try and link african colonies together, there was no mass migration from Europe to africa, only minor settlers went to south africa, most went to north america or australia. as for the genocide and slavery subject, this simply did not happen at all, slaves were bought by europeans from other local african warlords, the slave trade was not as massive as the ottoman slave trade in the same region and was ended on a global scale by the british, something barely even attempted in most of human history. In fact many other african tribes like the Bantu commited genocide against the Koisam people's, the populations in africa exploded during colonialism and the entire concept of a nation like south africa only exists due to western style education and institutions that set it up. that being said there was widespread racism and often times resistances were brutally shut down but nothing like we saw in ww2. I think you like many other people in the west just can't accept that the african populations are as aggresive and unstable like Europe was centuries before, remember the west is the exception to most of human history and it's a miracle it even happened, most of the world is very brutal, unforgiving and harsh and their histories reflect this, this does not excuse any abuse or exploitation the Europeans did inflict on the local people but if you judge them on their bad actions you have to contemplate their positive actions as well which far outweigh their rule of africa, in fact all leaders during that time would have said ''we have to rule these lands or else another european nation might do it and that would make us look weak'' nobody was focused on exploitation or profits in this part of their empires, it was all about prestige and having a huge empire, at best the french, british and germans used colonial troops to add more manpower to their military but that's basically it and their use were very limited and often costed more than they were worth, this is why Germany is such a rich and powerfull nation both at that time and today, it has massive industry and non of these colonies that took resources, manpower and logistics for barely anything worth having. I don't blame you for not knowing, our educational systems don't paint a fair or deep understanding of history or the people there, the media we consume only ever speak of exploitation or racism instead of things like the abolision of slavery or the population explosion, they also don't focus on african history, they don't know anything about the rich and powerfull west and east african kingdoms, nubians, the Bantu people or how the communist Mugabe destroyed Zimbabwe or how Nelson Mandela was a terrorist or how south africa is falling apart due to racism from the majority african populations against the white minority populations. it's so much more complex than you think it is, it's not good or bad, it just is what it is.

@lynn4062 I write a whole article about history and explain the actual history of african kingdoms and colonialism in detail and your response "So your a racist, good luck with that"? That says more about you than it does about me buddy, you don't seem to understand that you look like a simpleton who has no understanding of these topics at all, while I do, yet im somehow the racist? That unironically makes people who are racists look objective and intelectual which most of them (of all colours) tend not to be. If anything it looks like a coping mechanism for you to use when you are confronted with new information, ironically that's most often what racists and religeus fanatics do when you try and explain how their view of the world is inaccurate or outright fabricated fantasy. I do hope you grow out of this line of thinking, it's not healthy for you.

@lynn4062 what's most sad about your reaction is that it gives no benefit to the african people themselves, who had to suffer through great hardships during decolonisation and the african wars that followed, nobody is saying collonialism was perfect or ideal but many of these places were slowly modernising, they were getting beter and like many other nations before could have become strong nations, linked to the global economy more than just resource extraction, south africa is prove of that, as well as Zimbabwe before Mugabe took power, today places like Nigeria are getting ahead due to investments from both the West and China and embrace of western capitalism which they could have gotten sooner. It's like the nationalists vs the communists in China, the communists won and when Mao died it was one of the poorest nations on earth, they injected some market forces and capitalism into their system and now they are almost at superpower status, imagine if that happened 60 years earlier with the nationalists? The same could have been true for many former african colonies.

@am_that_guy I've seen Vox a few times and it's all bias, spin and bullshit, if you want to say it's good because of pretty colors and some special effects then even that is medicore in my opinion but to each his own I suppose. still does not make it good Journalism, in fact it's in my top 10 of least trustworthy channels out there. last time they did any good reporting was with the Azov Batalion that everyone on the left was ignoring for some reason, think that was 2016 or something, even then it was only impressive because everyone else did not even mention it.

I doubt Russia will allow Belarus to become part/close to the west, Lukashenko's regime is coming to an end the moment he dies, the government just does not have the support of the people. but make no mistake Belarus will not become part of Europe unless the EU and NATO take drastic measures and by drastic i mean putting troops on the border between Belarus and waiting for the regime to fall and then the second the new regime says ''we are pro EU'' send in the troops, if the timing is right and Russia does the same then a small scale conflict is inevitable but NATO is stronger than Russia and Russia has other issues to deal with so they might back down. now is the EU and NATO going to do that? unlikely, it would be a political risk and the western states just don't understand the nessesity of war anymore but that's the only way to change the current state of Belarus the alternative is annexation of Belarus by Russia.

@tomasvrabec1845 in the case of the USA, it is very much a bad thing since it had lead to certain dividing and polorizing ideologies being formed, which is tearing apart the fabric of american life, rule of law, culture and identity, it's not even so much about people being of a different color or background but the lack of intergration, assimulation and americanisation of people coming to the USA and this is by design by the government and policies enforced by the government, the USA has to realy force adoption of american values on people somehow and reduce immigration to a certain degree if it wants to remain stable. as for Europe, Europe is much worse and the very idea of assimulation is a rather new and imported american value which does not realy match these cultures. lets try and wind back time a little, Europe the continent that went into multiple world wars over nationalism and different ethnic groups fighting for their national right to rule, are now allowing million of people to come from all over the world, to settle and change the nature of those countries, who thinks this is going to have a good ending? if the EU can't even agree for the most part on policies made between Europeans, how bad are things going to be once migrant populations settle in for multiple generations? it's just silly to think this is going to work. what's likely going to happen is a series of stagnating and humiliating decline of european nations as well as doubts in it's institutions and a disinterested USA is going to lead to major unstable governments, add to it financial crisis and humanitarian and refugee crisis that makes 2015 look like a joke and you will likely see the rise of extreme political parties, both left and right with radical solutions. it's not pretty or great but it's very predictable to expect that to happen, the best outcome I see going forward is new technologies and rise in wealth in 3rd world countries, limits waves of migrants, and reverses some migrant waves and a more sane and revival of older nationalist and pan-european nationalist ideas will rise and hopefully restore some order and sense of self in a civilized manner, otherwise well we know how nasty history can be, now imagine that with robots and nukes just to add to the spice.

@unnanointedonesufi that's silly, esspecially in this age, nationalism is different for each country around the world, some forms of nationalism is against tyrany from an oppresive government, others are expressed with a focus on individual rights and a strong sense of community and connection to the land, family, culture, religion and identity. the only thing that would lead to war within Europe right now, is if Russia invades eastern Europe, at that point you would want nationalists willing to fight to defend the nation. likewise the EU is not against nationalism, in fact it is nationalistic to a degree but it's rules, policies and mechanism for rule does not represent the majority of the people and so you have a democratic, nationalistic and populistic backlash, ironically the fact that those people are often oppressed, makes nationalism stronger and more radical. if the EU wants to curb the potential of nationalism leading to war of any kind be it civil or foreign, then it needs to act and be seen as legitimate in fixing and having solid long term policies that people can believe in and not sow doubt, distrust and resentment, because those things actually lead to nationalism and so called ''far right'' politics. how did fascism and national socialism and communism rise to power? because a lack of unity with the people, a loss of legitimacy and a rising sense of dispear and resentment which then empowers authoritarian leaders with the promise of ''returning to the good old days and making it better than ever'' even if the EU fell apart their main enemies would likely not be eachother but more so minority groups and factions they consider their enemies, mostly the elites, corporations and those deemed to be hostile forces for way of life and/or existence. as someone who knows a lot of nationalists, non of them want to wage war between other europeans but almost all of them hate the current EU leadership, the heads of state, corporations, the media and outsiders of their native countries.
1
@unnanointedonesufi you sound brainwashed into thinking all nationalists are fascists, one form of nationalism in Iceland is pacifism. The USA is very liberty based on individual rights. Most forms of nationalism outside of the west is ethnic based or religion, so your basically saying all forms of civilization is fascism, when it's clearly not.
1
it's interesting how many people in the early 2000s said the ''far right'' was too extreme and a danger to western society and now in 2021 basically the center has moved to the ''far right'' while the ''far right'' has become more centrist, the big losers in this seem to be the far left and the socialists who have lost on many fronts in many countries and when they ruled for a brief moment they were such a disaster that many of those policies implemented are still hurting countries today, like the UK when Tony Blair was elected Prime minister. while it's not the ideal state I was hoping for and still a lot of things have gone wrong, I am somewhat glad that both the ''far right'' and centrist parties are moving more towards sanity. Now the media needs to catch up to this new reality.

@juanmola2000 honestly the style of phrases and use of words, makes me think this guy is a troll but in the case that he is for real, we should still just try and explain it to him, most people don´t know anything about nuclear power or how it works, they just look at the simpsons and go ´´nuclear energy is scary is bad´´ which is just not true.

Yes! The invaders admit what they are doing, immigration is colonialism! Spread the word! The sooner the west understand this truth the better! Immigration = colonialism

@FOLIPE you just keep telling yourself that, If I were Bolsonaro I worry more about another assasination attempt, seems to be the way forward for socialists when they keep losing.

@FOLIPE I agree, being a socialist is a mental illness. crimes? what crimes? the crime of being a non-corrupt leader in Brazil? that would be quite the radical in south america.

@muriloleite7194 you just keep telling yourself that, unless the cowardly leftists sharpen their rusty knives again to try and stab and kill him he will most likely win reelection. Im sorry but you had decades of government corruption under lula and the country went no-where now you got a leader that takes action and suddenly you he's the shame of the country? Realy? Honestly get someone new to run against bolsonaro, have him/her copy some of his retoric while being slightly less anti enviromentalism don't push forward the same idiot who did jail time for corruption, that's what would make Brazil look like a joke to the world.

@Angel24Marin you don't think it's because they are poor and have bigger issues to deal with? like idk murder rate? drug crimes? corruption? you might feel so high and might in your ivory tower but in the favelas for millions of people it's a struggle for survival everyday, most people that die of covid-19 are older people and people with unhealthy lifestyles, so why should the poor care? of course I reject the covid-19 vaccine they are mostly useless, won't lift any lockdowns, won't magically make the economic damage go away and won't give any protection when the virus mutates, it's not like Ebola which kills about 80% of it's hosts and is horrible as hell, it's a coof like any bad flu season, just because the media and the ''experts'' like to fearmonger does not make it true. most of those nations would love some more tourism, otherwise it's back into prostitution, crime or drugs for many people in those communities.

while there are some migrants that will no doubt have some skills for a modern economy which could then be integrated into Europe rather easily there is no denying that the vast majority of people coming into Europe today and tomorrow aren't in that group and likewise would be equally if not more needed in their own countries once they stabalize if that ever happens of course.
1
@Janoip basicaly what that means is Germany will become weaker as a nation and on the world stage, probably France and Poland will take it's position, esspecialy with how Germany's population is aging. Then there is also the alternative for Germany party which others don't want to work with but due to the bad policies of the greens and SPD might be tempted to sideline those older parties in favor of something new. But yeah for the coming election cycle the Germans just aren't ready or sane enough for a positive change, it would be nice if they did but they don't seem to care much about the future of their nation or the EU, sad realy.
1
@seb0rn739 by German standards perhaps, for most sane and liberal countries she's almost a dictator and has been in power for way too long. Censorship, locking up of journalists, dominating german politics, forcing oppresive conditions on the german people, shutting down protests, does this seem like the actions of a western leader? I live in the Netherlands and we have non of these things that she does to germany in the extreme.
1
@seb0rn739 yeah the sanitary fascism of Germany is realy bad, it realy shows just how authoritarian Germany is. How about that time a german dude on life stream got his house kicked in by gesta- I mean swat team because he dared to speak out in his own home against the covid measures? How about all the censorship of people on the right or who disagree with Merkels immigration and refugee policy? Can't mention the rapes and gropes of german woman. Or what about the german minister who praised that Germany was not having many children and that this is a good thing, even comparing most germans to nazi's. Or how about the journalist that got locked up for reporting on government policy? You are delusional if you think Germany is a democracy or a free country, I live in the Netherlands an actual free country compared to Germany and I can speak out against my government whenever I like, we have more press freedom than Germany, our democratic system has more room for many kinds of parties, though like Germany the cabal of elites in power of politics don't like working with non establishment parties, so called Cardon Sanitary. Germany is not a free country, not by a long shot and it's realy sad too, you would think after everything they be more liberal and less insane authoritarian.
