Elaborate because hoo diggity And the end goal of the “forced integration” is what, exactly?

“We don’t want Black people around” Priors confirmed!

This should about do it for Ukraine too since the right loves Russia so much, for some reason. A shame. We get it, you don’t like Black people.

Let’s keep it that way!

Yep! Labour is almost guaranteed to take over. The Socialist party appears to have won a healthy majority in Denmark, too. Meanwhile, Sinn Fein is getting stomped in Ireland. France did an atrocious job with assimilating immigrants. European countries don’t have the institutions like we do to assimilate them. I will fully agree to that.

I saw that. I saw Macron called a parliamentary election too, which will be interesting. He’s going to need to form a stronger coalition with Parti Socialiste if he wants to keep going.

IMO, right wing populism is more appealing than left wing populism because it’s easy to understand - “I don’t like you, so I will put this person in power that will stomp you out” whereas left wing populism requires you to read 97 different texts from people who died 200 years ago to have the slightest understanding of their goals. Not entirely thrilled about the amount of votes that nazi Czech Republic guy guy though!

Cool. What’s the population density?

Not surprising. Centrism always wins. Populism bounces between left and right wings every so often, it’s nothing new.

Other costs of living are rooted in costs of housing. We have the highest incarceration rates in the world. More prisons ain't the answer. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/incarceration-rates-by-country

I think many Democrats would like to cut the military/police budgets.

There are only increased costs because there is scarcity of housing. Austin, Texas, did a phenomenal job of encouraging housing development. As a result, rents plummeted. https://www.austinmonitor.com/stories/2024/02/austin-apartments-boomed-and-rents-went-down-now-some-builders-are-dismantling-the-cranes/

False! City centers will still be desirable places for recreation and relaxation, and they are going to be necessary to address the housing crisis in America. Single-family sprawl is both financially and environmentally unsustainable.

"It's inconceivable that these protestors went to walmart together to get cheap tents" -Republicans

"Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps" doesn't work, has never worked, and will never work in the future. Why do you desire that minorities stay in poverty? Weird. We are still rebuilding our inner cities and it will take substantial investment. Taking this away will bring us back to square one.

A bunch of his supporters died from Covid while mainlining ivermectin, so there's that.

This is the same side that salavates at the thought of removing welfare and investment money into inner cities, they think that everyone lives in 1950s suburbia where jobs grow on trees and there's a Ford in every driveway, so there's no reason people can't succeed.

Sounds like someone needs some grift money!

Im actually surprised the lolbertarians aren’t there

Doesn’t work if there aren’t inclusive socioeconomic institutions equally throughout the country. You’re running against the wind.

We knew that’s what Trump wants. His followers are the equivalent of the middle school bully who can’t match his opponent mentally so he has to throw hands on the playground. Its terrifying stuff but we have to be strong, continue to get the vote out, and continue to suppress and exterminate the far right ideology.

It’s cope from the right. Happens every so often. Until the GOP proves they have any kind of policy to improve the lives of minorities in poverty, especially in inner cities, the democrats will continue to draw Black votes.

Still waiting on the Republican plan to improve the lives of minorities living in poverty. Anytime.

Ha, I wish my wife did yoga. She just does these ridiculous core workout classes that make me feel like I’ve been sawed in half by the time I’m done

Any bets on which forum posters will be signing up? I have a hunch.
