  • German football coach condemns 'racist' TV survey that asked participants if they wanted to see more white players on the national football team

    Jump

  • It can be. Great question from German media would have been if they asked the audience something to reflect on the treatment of Mesut Oezil in the past for example. It was a complete racist shitshow at that time and nobody was bothered.

  • Please don't excuse shitty journalism. These people earn good wages and have a standing in German media. They can speak (relatively) freely, but decide to do differently.

  • Not a football fan, but good answer to a stupid racist question. Journalism needs to reflect on how their reporting is enabling the far right and legitimising racist talking points in society. At least here in Germany the media plays a substantial role in the rise of the AFD and normalising right wing policies.

  • The world’s largest direct carbon capture plant just went online

    Jump

  • The problem is, projects like this turn our heads away from the real problems. Politicians and investors will justify not reducing greenhouse gas emissions because we have this new technology which will save us all. Fact is, climate change has already been solved, we know what we have to do since decades. It is not a problem which will be solved by technology, it is a political problem. In addition to that people will say that they are doing enough by investing in carbon capture but will not address the biodiversity crisis which can only be addressed by proposing real environmental policy change.

  • College protesters seek amnesty to keep arrests and suspensions from trailing them

    Jump

  • Spot on! Fuck Hamas and all the terroristic acts against Jews and innocent lives. But one should also be able to recognise the ongoing crimes and genocide of the right wing Israeli government. Do they really think this war will lead to the destruction of Hamas or antisemitism in the region? I bet we will se double the amount of antisemites/terrorists in the future and nothing will have changed. The west is losing its face and the region was never further away from peace. Hamas trapped the Israeli government into a war and the Israeli extremists were more than happy to use the opportunity for this genocide. Seems like nobody is honestly interested in peace and the victims will be the Palistinian people and some festival goers.

  • Swiss parliamentary committee backs plan to deport asylum seekers

    Jump

  • Sorting and processing them should be done efficiently

    Like we 'processed' certain people during WW2? You seem like a disgusting neoliberal who got fat and cruel from all the accumulated wealth you probably 'worked very hard for'.

  • Swiss parliamentary committee backs plan to deport asylum seekers

  • We stand to gain nothing like that.

    I guess you missed the massive gains from years of colonialism and ongoing resource drain from these countries. Now that refugees demand asylum from the ongoing wars, climate crisis and economic disaster which we left them in, Europe has 'nothing more to give' according to you. Ego centric hypocrisy.

  • USC cancels graduation ceremony and dozens are arrested on other campuses as anti-war protests grow

    Jump

  • I don't want to vote for anyone, because I am not a US citizen, but if I were, yes, I would say vote for Biden regardless. Why? Because even as a non US citizen I know enough about Project 2025 and this is not the future I want to see for this world. One good thing about Biden is that he will leave office when he loses. Last time Trump lost you nearly got a coup d'etat. But yeah, my comment wasn't exactly about Biden vs Trump but more about the hopelessness of the current situation where it seems to get worse irrelevant of the direction you go.

  • Watching the American democracy go down and the Palestinian people with it. So many young people losing hope and the alt right will elect a man even more opposed to the Palestinian cause than the current government of the United States. What a time so be alive.

  • How financially literate are Europeans? Not very - but who knows most?

    Jump

  • Even elected officials lack the basic understanding of inflation. Many think a declining inflation rate results in prices also declining and push policy according to that.

  • Germany legalises cannabis possession for personal use from April

    Jump

  • Of course the counter argument to legalisation was published in "Die Welt", the right leaning newspaper from the Springer media group. The group which also publishes the Bild Zeitung which plays a big role in the rise of the far right in Germany and has a history of reckless opinion journalism which even lead to the shooting of a member of the student uprising in the past (Rudy Dutschke if you want to look it up). Fuck everything Springer.

  • Hit by worker shortage, German city gets students to drive trams

  • Don't know why you are getting downvoted, at least this comment is spot on. Best regards, a German.

  • Israeli protesters block aid convoys bound for Gaza

    Jump

  • Here is what struck me recently about the Israeli people.

    They are genocidal because they are human trash. No other excuse.

    Quite frankly, fuck you for the words you have tried to put in my mouth.

    Nice discussion culture you are having here. Might mistake lemmy for reddit.

  • Israeli protesters block aid convoys bound for Gaza

    Jump

  • He called the Israeli people 'human trash' (Isreal considers itself state of the Jews). And he meant all of the Israeli people. What do you think this rhetoric leads to?

    And as I stated multiple times above I am all in on criticising the Israeli gevernment and no I am not doing exactly what the German government is doing. I would argue for a stopping of all delivery of arms via the the German government and for a ceasefire asap. I see a huge problem with the way the Israeli government walked into the trap planted by Hamas and is now part of a war which may be labeled as a genocide. So why should you call all of the Israeli people 'human trash' when you could specify your criticism? It's the same as calling all Palestinians Hamas.

  • How good is the translation via Deepl or other tools? This should be a broad overview, but it's German.

    You could also try English Wikipedia for more background.

    Otherwise I wanted to make the point that comparing the Jewish people to the Nazis is wrong and only ads more oil to the fire. Criticise Israeli government, IDF, violent settlers, stupid people blocking neccessary aid for Gaza but don't fall in the antisemitism trap where Jewish people even in other countries are held responsible for the actions of a right wing government.

  • Sorry, but Germans didn't turn into Nazis because oft the Depression. There was a lot that lead to to uprising of the Nazis. Read about the Peace of Versailles or in German "Schmach von Versailles". Also political culture in the Weimarer Republic which was massively focused on raw violence between the different groups. Read about deflation. Read about Franz von Papen and so on. Don't search for excuses for right wing extremism.

    Saying the Israeli people is on the same page or worse than Hitler adds nothing to the conversation and is, at best, just wrong. Best regards, a German.

    PS: Don't stop criticising the acts of the Israeli government and definitely the IDF, but stop generalising and making all Jews responsible. Otherwise you could also say that all Palestinians are Hamas.

  • Wolves win against farmers as Swiss cull put on hold

    Jump

  • In 2021 around 760 Million animals were killed for food in Germany. In the same year wolves killed just under 4000 sheeps and other livestock. Around two thirds of our grains are fed to livestock. We are looking in the wrong direction. Don't let the big farming lobby fool you.
