Even if crime wasn’t a problem, we should be allowed to protect our culture. Not every country needs to be like USA.
Culture always changes. The culture of your country has not been like this since the dawn of time. There is no good reason, why it should stay just the way it is right now, only because “that’s the way it always has been” in your memory. Also if the newly arriving people make all of your felloelw countrypeople abandon their old ways, maybe their was something wrong with those traditions to begin with. If you are only worried because the new people will bring their own culture and stick to it, that just adds to the culture and doesn’t take yours away.
And I’m not even sure why I have to defend myself.
I personally think one needs really good reasons if one chooses to defend xenophobic policies and puts millions of people under the general suspicion of spreading crime and violence while nearly all of them are just trying to get away from the war and violence in the countries where they are coming from.
To add to your last two paragraphs: even if the elected parties enact the more environmentally friendly policies, many voters will be unsatisfied with that because they imagined a solution would pop up where they themselves would not be required to make sacrifices. I imagine memes like this could be a reason for that as they imply that corporations emit greenhouse gases totally decoupled from the people’s consumption. I fully demand that corporations take more actions to reduce emissions although it will lower their profits, but I also ask (mainly) the privileged people who live in the global north to accept necessary reductions in lifestyle and consumption as a necessary consequence.
I have recently gone to replay Dishonored. It worked great, so now I’m continuing with Dishonored 2, which I had abandoned after like three missions the last time. It’s loads of fun although D2 crashes from time to time for me. No big problem with the frequent saving I do anyway.
Der Jokus überzeugt mich nicht vollends, aber die Kuh ist verdammt süß <3
Zumal weniger Schwimmbäder ja auch bedeuten, dass es schwieriger wird schwimmen zu lernen. Und gut schwimmen zu können ist immer noch die effektivste Methode nicht zu ertrinken oder Ertrinkenden helfen zu können.
Btw, woher stammt dein Zitat? Nicht aus dem pfostierten Artikel, oder?
What does “petting” mean in this context?
I do not think so, the LED lights are just really bright. The human eye is most sensitive to green light. And according to the following graph similarly much to reddish and bluish tones (maybe even more sensitive to the yellow stuff rather than blue) https://www.researchgate.net/figure/The-eye-sensitivity-function-7_fig17_343319896
Supposedly car manufacturers even brag about their stupid bright lights, so I do think they put effort into making their lights more and more bright, even if they try containing the beams to the street. I couldn’t find Mercedes’ original ad to this picture though: https://knowyourmeme.com/photos/2556223
Die FDP verteidigte den Emissionshandel als maßgebliches Instrument ihrer Klimapolitik. Der am Markt gebildete CO2-Preis würde realistisch darstellen, was die Einsparung einer Tonne CO2 koste. „Spätestens durch den CO2-Preis wird es zum ureigensten Interesse von Unternehmen und Verbraucherinnen und Verbrauchern, ihren CO2-Fußabdruck zu reduzieren“, meint die Partei.
Aber ist denn nicht offensichtlich, dass das total am Ziel vorbeiläuft? Selbst wenn der Preis realistisch die Kosten abbildet, wird damit ja nur erreicht, dass meine Firma rausblasen darf, was eine andere einspart und damit bleibt die Gesamtemission bestenfalls gleich, obwohl sie sinken müsste. Zumindest müsste man ja gucken, dass es teurer ist zu emittieren als einzusparen, damit auch ein Anreiz gesetzt ist.
