HowRu68 OP , an Europe in Jordan Bardella, far-right poster boy to aspiring statesman

"The son of Italian immigrants with Algerian roots on the father's side, Bardella was born and raised in the diverse, largely working-class Parisian suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis.

"I came from elsewhere, but I became who I am here. I married French history," is the way he describes his background on Tiktok, a social media platform popular with a young demographic, where he boasts 1.8 million followers. "

His dad is a wealthy corporate owner, and his former girlfriend is the niece of Marine LePen. There is nothing about his upbringing and his fairly recent rise that's working class.

whisk4s OP , an Deutschland - Nachrichten, Diskussionen, was auch immer in Studie: Ohne Reichensteuer fehlen 380 Milliarden Euro – DW – 02.07.2024

Heute lernte ich:

Einfach den persönlichen Wohnsitz ins Ausland zu verlegen, ist für Reiche seit der Einführung der Wegzugsteuer 1972 teuer. Sie führe dazu, "dass Steuerflüchtlinge etwa ein Drittel ihres gesamten in Deutschland aufgebauten Vermögens an der Grenze abgeben müssen", heißt es in der Studie.

Auch die Verlagerung von Unternehmen oder Unternehmensteilen ins Ausland könne teuer werden. In der Öffentlichkeit wenig bekannte Steuerarten wie die Entstrickungsbesteuerung und die Besteuerung von Funktionsverlagerungen sorgten dafür, dass Eigentümer bei der Verlagerung "knapp die Hälfte ihres in Deutschland aufgebauten Vermögens abgeben müssen".

Steuern, die eigentlich ziemlich toll klingen.

Isn't that place still run by a shitbag dictator currently in the process of building a new capitol in the middle of the desert? Doesn't sound like a sound investment.

Great, i like that its getting better. Faster Passport as the goal of integration will be a positive for the integration of immigrants in Germany. And i also like that you have to accept our cultural values such as equality and the ban for antisemitic people.

zweieuro ,

Ithink it's an outright incredible sign that it is stated as a hard requirement ti accept equal rights.

Yes and i hope it works, the crimes against LGBT and Woman are on the rise again, especially discrimination. Its not acceptable to have that sort of people vote here. We already have enough people of our own with that mindset, and we cannot take the passport away again ever if someone violates our laws, cultural standards or Values as society.

And here’s why Germany is ranked among the worst countries for expats. You desperately need people. Both the dirty work like cleaning and blue collar work and high skilled jobs that most Germans aren’t qualified enough for, mainly in tech.

You still treat the Indian, Turkish, Vietnamese immigrant like they’re here to make your food and the Eastern European immigrant like they’re gonna steal your bike if they’re not alcoholics. Yet these are nowadays the people that pay the highest taxes in Germany and other countries with a tech sector.

Who’s gonna pay for your retirement? Who’s gonna take care of you when you’re old and your family dumps you at a nursing home? Germany is still doing well but SMEs aren’t as relevant as building software products, the 80s are over. This attitude is already hurting Germany and it’s only getting worse. Not gonna be my problem but people like you really need a reality check.

death_to_carrots ,

Regardless that we need more working age people, those coming to us have to follow our liberal-democratic basic order (freiheitlich-demokratische Grundordnung).
We can't get rid of anti-democrats born here, but we must be able to chose who is coming into Europe.

footoro ,

I am familiar with the concept, I find it ridiculous to assume that the default is that foreign people would not follow the law.

I don’t agree with you that „we must be able to choose“ because I don’t believe it is our achievement that we were born here and we have contributed nothing to how things are in Europe.

The thing that has contributed most to how rich Europe is is colonial exploitation of the global south. As of now our European borders are a deeply racist construct aimed at keeping the consequences of hundred of years of exploitation away from us, and don’t get me started with climate change.

Just because fascism has become popular in Europe again, there’s no need to parrot their brainrot uncritically. I am very worried about the future of Europe due to the rise of fascism. I believe if we continue going down this route we will become economically irrelevant, all humanitarian aspects left aside.

Business and qualified people go rather somewhere stable and predictable than to Germany or France where a new Nazi Reich is a possibility. Europeans are just still too stuck in their colonial mindset to realize that. If you don’t believe me then just look over to the UK, this could be us.

autotldr Bot , an Europe in Germany's new citizenship reform takes effect – DW – 06/27/2024

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The liberalization means Germany will, for the first time, allow multiple citizenship on principle — rather than as an exception for EU and Swiss nationals and those who can prove "special hardships."

"Finally, our law is doing justice to our diverse society," Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said in a recent statement.

That number is set to increase substantially in the coming year: State governments across Germany have already reported a rise in applications.

The opposition parties, the Alternative for Germany (AfD), which is partly made up of right-wing extremists, and the conservative Christian Democrats (CDU), claim that the German passport will become cheapened.

The so-called guest worker generation — mainly Turkish people who moved to West Germany in the 1960s to work — will no longer have to take a naturalization test.

Those who reject equal rights for men and women or live in polygamous marriages are also not eligible for a German passport.

Won't stuff like this just cause competent work force to bleed outside Greece and make the problem worse, or is this just for the uneducated low level employees who are easily replaced and have no choice?

crispy_kilt ,

Yes to both

Fuck me. Now billionaires are coming for the surplus value of our days off.

theacharnian , an Europe in Greece introduces the six-day work week

What's actually fucked is that this kind of move only brings above board practices that have already been happening in the down low for large sectors of the economy.

The "Greek recovery" is being built on cheap labour, without any kind of productivity gains, technology development, or real diversification of the economy.

collapse_already , an Europe in Greece introduces the six-day work week

Coming soon to the U.S., we need the seven-day work week to outcompete our foreign rivals. Don't you want to be rich? It will trickle down. No that is not Reagan's ghost laughing out loud at how gullible his constituents are, why do you think that?

That’s what you get when you vote conservative-right.

SuddenDownpour ,

It is also what you get when people vote left, and the reaction of the rest of the EU is to punish the whole country by imposing upon them even worse creditor conditions, lest people in other countries get funny ideas and a Conservative government gets put in check. Greeks have turned into this direction because the alternative got shot dead, and the people who had hope for it no longer have any.

crispy_kilt ,

Greece is getting degraded not be the EU but by banks in the EU. Big difference.

SuddenDownpour ,

The Central European Bank is governed by the EU. During their debt restructuring negotiations from around a decade ago, Greece's government negotiated with the other EU governments, not with private banks.

crispy_kilt ,

On paper yes. In reality it's governed by the largest banks. Which also have undue influence over national governments.

Guys you’re going the wrong way σταμάτα το

Usually when there’s a labor shortage wages go up. This sounds like there’s no labor shortage, just a bunch of people eager to extract additional value for free.

SuddenDownpour , an Europe in Greece introduces the six-day work week

Increasing working hours means reducing the efficiency of the economy.

No it doesnt.
