  • What's the problem with the gecko engine?

  • They are completely lying about the situation in France. They are talking about the propaganda of the previous government (Attal, under directions of Macron), but it's all lies debunked by the president of the institue in charge of controlling and evaluating pensions budgets.

  • These are lies. It's literally disinformation. The president of the organisation whose job is litteraly to assess how sustainable retirement funding is explained that the government estimates for their reform was the worst possible scenario first, and second it was demonstrated that there are many other solutions to fund retirement plans in France than shitting on the new generations.

    One parameter of this disaster in France is that a good part or the missing funding comes from the government refusing to increase public workers salary, or to pay them with primes that are not taxed, and thus don't fund retirement, or to decrease the number of public agents.

    Another parameter is that the system is not under any risk on the long term. Only the next 10 to 15 years are planned to be difficult.

    I can understand that liberal assholes want to enslave workers as long as they can possibly get away with, but spreading lies when the truth is that the government is litteraly sabotaging the system for it to happen is akin to what dictatorships do.

  • So as long as the litteral nazis are not in charge genociding people it's fine and there's nothing to worry about? Syndicalistes and ecoactivists being arrested for terrorism is fine already?

  • That's politics: one side tries to do the right thing and manage to get law written. The other side then hire lawyers to find a way to bypass this law. A judge get to choose who wins until the next law is voted. It means the first law wasn't well written in the first place.

  • That is totally right. I'm french. Laws protect renters, but not that much, and landlords don't hesitate to threaten with false pretense. And if you mention anything illegal they're doing, you simply won't have the apartment. They ask documents they have no right to see, but if you don't provide them they won't even look at your application. Obviously people of colour do have a harder time finding an apartment, but even for engineers it's hard to find one in a city.

  • In France you need to earn 3 times the price of the lawn, and you need warrants (garants) : people who will be forced to pay if you ever don't. To prove you can pay, you need 3 months of salary sheets. You need to prove your job is not a CDD (short determined time). You need to show insurances and prove your identity too of course. Half of those are not legal, but landlords don't care because you're in competition : you visit the apartment with a dozen of other people who want a place to sleep too. And the landlord will choose the chosen one as he pleases.

    It depends on the place, but Lyon is absolute madness to find an apartment.

  • And yet most of the political forces in France are advocating to remove all these rights. Sindicalists are arrested under terrorist laws, as are eco-activists. And maires trying to enforce price ceiling for lawns in cities are considered like Staline.

  • Borderland 2 has excellent characters and story. It just doesn't slap it to your face.

    The game hides the serious stuff behind humour. It's part of the universe : everything is so fucked up that people become crazy to overcome it.

    It wasn't as good in the first game, but borderland 2 is a masterpiece. And the movie understand nothing of it.

  • It depends. There are riots in England currently because some racists don't want anymore immigration. I'm pretty sure you can easily have a very heated debate with these guys. You may talk with a jew about Israel these days too.

    If you avoid hit topic with the wrong person, you won't find strong opinions. But Internet bring people together, especially when they want to fight eachother.

  • Well, there's Hitler who did exactly the same: publish a book, try not one but several coups, still get named chancelier legally. In France we like them too: we have 2 Napoléon who did the same thing. It almost happened another time in 1958, but the man they put in power was reasonable for once.

  • While this is not worthy of ww3, defending nato member space is something nato can and should do. Whether the strike is intended or not, nato is legitimate to defend the area to prevent a strike. More than legitimate in fact.

  • She's a woman, and she's black, of course there will be opposition.

  • The description presented for corporatism is partial in this article. Corporatism doesn't prevent free market. In fact it doesn't care about free market. It's an organisation for the people of the field to organise themselves.

    It's used since the middle ages at least. It is indeed often used by the central government to get some controle on the field (to prevent a technology from going in an enemy kingdom for example, at a time when patent didn't exist).

    It is not free market in the sense that someone can't come into the business without the corporation allowance first. But many markets are just as bad anyway ; when companies have a monopoly or close enough from it, it's arguably even worse.

  • The article states that the State having power is a problem to solve. I don't agree with that statement, and it is a basis for the argumentation that follows.

  • Well, maybe explain my confusion then, instead of being an ass.

  • This is very much biased with a liberal or anarchist mindset.
