In Anbetracht seiner Forderungen und den Ergebnissen der Sondierungsgespräche wäre es vielleicht sinnvoll ihm Grundgesetze zuzusenden.

Even during the World Wars the defence industry wasn’t wholly nationalised.

37% of Rheinmetall’s shares are owned by NA investors, none individually control more than 6%. And no, Rheinmetall wasn’t founded by Nazis. It predates the Nazis by decades, the company was founded in the same year Hitler was born in. And even if it was, why would that matter today? The company is not owned by the people who founded it. It’s not even owned by their descendants (who still would not be the same people).

They are also NOT selling to both sides. I’m not even disputing that they wouldn’t, they might well want to, but they literally can’t. They’re not allowed to and that is enforced.

So what’s your alternative? Do nothing as Russia invades country after country and hope that they’ll stop before it’s our turn?

Okay, that’s bad UX. There should be an error message telling a user what happened and why the verification failed. “Verification link expired.” “This email address is already in use.” Etc.

ETA: I’m aware that you can’t really do anything about that directly, but this is still an issue that should be raised with the developers.

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

If they’d be willing renounce their claims to Taiwan and allow democracy in Hong Kong and Macau, maybe I could see that. Until then, same shit in more outwardly rational packaging.

Kommt auf die Definition von “Geschlecht” an. Biologisch? Nein. Sozial? Gegebenfalls durchaus ja.

Hair ties, hair clips, hair pins, those spiral thingies you twist in (no idea what they’re called in English) and hairspray to keep it from fluttering about. Lots of ways to keep your hair up and in shape, depends on what exactly you want to achieve.

That said, I don’t know anyone, like literally anyone, who thinks that keeping your hair up is more comfortable.

Das Fairphone als Alternative zu Apple anzubieten ist auch ziemlich optimistisch. Komplett andere Zielgruppe. Wenn das Ziel ist nicht amerikanisch zu kaufen, dann sollte man sich nicht komplett ideologisch auf “buy European” verbohren. Samsungs Galaxy S-Serie versucht zumindest die gleiche Zielgruppe anzusprechen wie das iPhone. Wie erfolgreich ist jetzt ne andere Frage aber auf jeden Fall deutlich näher dran was zb Design und Kameras angeht.

Why not?

Wenn’s nicht reicht werden sie sich, unabhängig von bisherigen Äußerungen, die Grünen mit ins Boot holen. Was für uns alle deutlich besser wäre als Schwarz-Rot, zusammen könnten SPD und Grüne deutlich mehr asoziale und rassistische Scheiße von der Union verhindern. Ich hoffe, da bewegt sich noch was.

Er hätte einfach nur nichts tun müssen. Stattdessen hat er der AfD ein Geschenk gemacht. Vollidiot.

You said that dual citizenship shouldn’t be allowed. Do you think that someone applying for German citizenship should be forced to renounce any other citizenship in order to receive a German one? Because that’s what the law used to be. And many people had and have reasons for not wanting to give up their original citizenship that went beyond the sentimental (not that pure sentimentality is not a valid reason).

What is Borderline Racist about my comments?

The old citizenship laws left millions of people who were born and raised in Germany, who went to school here and who pay their taxes here, and who have never had a home other than Germany without equal rights. So saying you oppose the reforms that finally allow these people to fully participate in our society isn’t a great look.

Yeah, and all that actually does is strengthen the AfD by making their talking points socially acceptable.

That’s not voter suppression, it’s a risk you take when moving outside of Germany. The German state can’t guarantee that you can easily vote if you move outside of its jurisdiction.

Well, I certainly do look at him in wonder.

Well, keep saying it because you’re right.

“Nicht ganz so bekloppt wie Sahra” ist keine Leistung. Ich erwarte ein klares Bekenntnis zur Ukraine, zu unseren anderen Verbündeten im Osten, und zur Aufrüstung der Bundeswehr um unsere Verbündeten im Zweifel auch ohne/gegen die USA verteidigen zu können.

They also won’t result in anything other than US disengagement. Ukraine won’t surrender just because Trump says so. And neither will Poland and the Baltic states, and because of that the EU as a whole won’t.

It won’t even end the war. It’ll just make America look weak.
