While I agree that socialism is a good ideology, we are definitely far away from actual socialism in Europe. We have social welfare states, yes. They have socialist elements, and many other elements that contradict it. They are not socialist. Whats the point in pretending they already are?

My point was, when you say things like "European Socialism", that would be interpreted as what countries like Romania, Poland, Czechoslowakia or East Germany were like until around 1990. It was catastrophic.

Im waiting for the time when "child labor laws" will stand for "laws forcing children to work" in the US.

Cant really agree to this. IT is full of pure english speaking projects. I even know some where everyone is German but talking in English. Without the proper connections, its gonna be hard to find something though. I agree that it would be much easier to move here first. I dont even really understand what youre gonna do with a EU job living in the US. Thats kind of the opposite of what I would do given the current situation.

Not sure what you mean by European socialism, but you do NOT want the socialism that was attempted in eastern European countries.

Kidnapped kids dont have any money

That would assume you dont have a grudge against the site for banning you.

So is Lemmy the dumping ground for people getting banned on reddit now?

Ja wirklich lustig wenn man am helligten Tag eine Entführung mitbekommt und die nächsten 5h damit verbringt mit der Polizei zu quatschen. Immer diese Spaßverderber😡

Opposite for me. I usually sit down but the last drops never come out unless I stand up and squeeze them out. Its definitely extra work to hold it while standing up, making sure it doesnt get on my pants.

Sure Donald

Yes, condoms do prevent STDs. Just like hard hats prevent head injuries. Thats a completely legitimate statement and not equivalent to "100% under no circumstance ever can you hurt your head when wearing a hard hat". If youre crushed by a 10t steel block, your head will be hurt. So would takeaway be "hard hats dont prevent head injuries"?

They didnt and I dont think you even believe that yourself. Just re-read the comment chain.

I misinterpreted parts of your comment and already edited it before you finished yours.

Nevertheless, Im a little confused about your stance. You literally wrote in your comment that it would make women uncomfortable by forcing them to share restrooms with men. It would solve the problem for (some, definitely not most) trans women and create the same problem for 100 times the number of cis women.

Its using huge amounts of tax money not solving a problem, but at least it wouldnt create one for millions of people.

Its important to note that maturity doesnt automatically come with the brain fully developing. The brain being developed is a requirement for maturity though.

Just because you didnt know about it doesnt mean it didnt exist

Touch all the CEOs I can get my hands on

So your solution to a problem affecting a small minority is to use huge amounts of tax money to extend the problem to everyone, fixing it for none?

What the actual fuck.

How do you deduce from a ridiculous mockery comment from a jealous outsider, that she isnt happy in her relationship? Could people please mind their own damn business?

This comment made me lose some brain cells. How can you not stop to think for one second before posting this?

"A car is not guaranteed to get you from A to B, it could break down on the way. So its basically useless"

"A jacket doesnt guarantee protection from rain, why would you think it can keep you warm?"

"A toothbrush doesnt get rid of all the bacteria in your mouth, waste of time"

The moment you realize the world isnt made up of 1 and 0.
