  1. The video wasn't about the why, but about the what now.

  2.  @Danne1886  He doesn't work for you, and that isn't the focus of his thoughts. Make your own video.

  3.  @gagamba9198  I didn't say it wasn't important. It just isn't the focus of this video.

  4.  @Danne1886  You are right, and you are wrong. I am defending my point of view.

  5. A lot of people objecting to Peter's packing whilst creating the video. Wow. Feels like high school all over again.

  6.  @joecomyns5120  Drop the snark and we can talk. Otherwise close the bath door. We don't want to watch a solo routine.

  7. Peter said IF the National Party doesn't do well in France's upcoming parliamentary elections, THEN it would demonstrate the swing to the right in the EU Parliament is a flash in the pan.

  8.  @SyntaxErr19287  He has already mentioned he doesn't read the comments - for that very reason.

  9. And, on the flip side, there is the issue of the native populations treating migrants as second class citizens, contrary to Western values.

  10.  @BlackbirdArtandDesign  Neither is turning a blind eye to their plight. Or even a wide open eye.

  11.  @BlackbirdArtandDesign  The economies of all western nations are suffering from an acute and chronic labor shortage that is decades in the making and will last decades. That causes higher inflation.

  15.  @LordRykard9376  Nope. Wrong on all counts, especially the first, but you needed a platform to launch from, eh?

  18.  @RadiusG60  You started off making some good points, and then went for the snark. I'd love to respond, but only when you drop it. 👎

  19.  @poplar2065  If you want to talk about immigration, start talking about it. All I see is stonethrowing at the man who said that is not what he is talking about.

  20. Biden isn't in Europe. This is a video on Europe.

  21.  @LordRykard9376  Drop the snark, dude, or stop participating.

  22. Given that the hard right often used physical stereotypes, I gotta ask: are you?

  23.  @PWMoze  Fair enough, except when he said 'flash in the pan', he was referring to the context of this particular election. And he said, IF subsequent national elections do not confirm this regional election, THEN it would be a mere flash in the pan, politically speaking. Your statement was a flat contradiction of what he said. I agree the larger movement is not a flash in the pan, nor even an aberration. And I believe he has even said that in other videos, but those videos, again, were a different context.

  24.  @fortyninehike  No they aren't. In most western countries, accosting and subverting someone because of prejudice is a violation of their civil rights. In the US, that is a federal felony charge.

  25.  @LordRykard9376  citizens in the generic sense. All western countries extend basic human rights to all people.

  26.  @LordRykard9376  Actually, both does. Find an economist.

  27.  @LordRykard9376  For example, product A costs $10 to make, from wholesale to retail the markeup is 20%. Retail is $12.00. Labor represents 50% of the cost. Labor shortages empower labor, who get a 10% increase. The cost of manufacture is now $10.50, with markup the retail cost is $12.60. That is a $.60 increase. Define inflation.

  34.  @MS-ii1sv  Swing and a miss, Casey. Strike duo.

  35. Given the actual demographics, that makes no sense. Are you saying there are vastly more 16-18 year olds than Boomers and Gen Xers?

  36. Demographics also explains the labor shortage you say doesn't exist.

  37.  @asdasdasddgdgdfgdg  Nothing is absolutely certain until it is in the past. As described in the video, the point is Macron wins either way.

  38. Your rhetoric sounds a lot like the class warfare rhetoric of the left a hundred years ago.

  42.  @poplar2065  Yep. And Zeihan's video is not about the green curtain, as specified in the description of the video.

  43.  @RadiusG60  So I am guessing rational discourse is not your intent?

  44.  @Danne1886  Critical thinking is good; expressing critical thinking is good. But even there, you season it with what you call salt. Remember what Marx said?

  45.  @Danne1886  Dude. Bottom line. This isn't about critical thinking, because you aren't doing it. Complaining no one is talking about the topic you want to talk about, but not actually talking about it yourself, is the point we keep throwing your way.

  46.  @Danne1886  Because we are responding to your comments and you are a one-note song.

  47.  @Danne1886  If you want to have a conversation about immigration being a major factor in the elections, then take the initiative and start that conversation.

  48.  @Danne1886  And leave the salt on the table.

  49.  @BobTheTrueCactus  For those people, what was it about? Thanks.

  52. Why would it be foolish to say after working for 40 years, one can retire to enjoy 20 years of life?

  59.  @LordRykard9376  Brexit isn't far right; Thatcher was borderline, though, with some of her social policies. But Trump. Dude. Violent protests and attempted insurrections are what define extremist movements.

  60.  @matthewgaudet8001  No. Anarchy is not on the same spectrum as left-right. Just like fascism. "left" is about change, about opposing the status quo. It does not require government intervention.

  61.  @spenndoolie  That's funny. Since when has Mahers ever been right?
