Why the Fuck would i get butthurt?

I am Swiss, Nemo won this Contest for us. And i am Liberal. If it doesn't hurt me, everyone is allowed to feel exactly the way they're allowed to.

I am annoyed by this filling my feeds for 2 days and now someone feels the need to post it yet another time

The lemmy.ml guy would think freedom means the freedom to roll with tanks over peaceful Protestors demanding Freedom and Democracy.

See? Prejudice isn't nice, right?

That's absolutely not what it means

In the very closest definition, liberal means "if there isn't a law against it, you're allowed to do it"

liberal more broadly is just as simple: "if it doesn't hurt me, you're free to do it"

I mean, what do you think a "liberal democracy" is? The majority of Europe is made up of liberal democracies while also being social-democratic. France is a liberal democracy despite being heavily unionized and having huge welfare. How does that work?

It works because that's not what liberal means.

Socially-Liberal, for example, is when you are liberal (freedom-loving / diversity-loving) in social aspects. You support gay marriages, you support freedom of religion, you support cultural diversity. Other Examples include religiously-liberal, culturally-liberal, or even politically liberal (you support the right to different political opinions than yours)

What comes closest to what you think it is is economically-liberal. Which essentially says that "as long as it doesn't hurt me, you're free to do what you want economically". But even that isn't what you mean. Is Pollution and accelerating Climate change harming me and therefore not protected under liberalism? yes, says the absolute majority of liberals.

Is lobbying harming me by making my Voice less weighted? Yes, say a lot of us.

So not even economically-liberal is a good term to describe what you mean.

I don't know, what a good term for it is. But it isn't Liberal. So please, for the love of god, stop misusing it. Words have meaning. Invent a new one if you have to, they all began that way anyways.

How big is the Chance i get a Koala? And am i allowed to keep it?

If it was because of political favours it would have either been Ukraine, Israel, Italy or Greece. (Maybe also the Netherlands if they were allowed to participate because their song (Europapa) would have gotten a lot of votes from european federalists)

We swiss are more neutral in europes perception. They don't hate us, but they also don't really love us. At least not as much as they love other Countries that are less.... "complicated"

Don't know why you're being downvoted.

Liberal literally means free. As in "If it doesn't harm me, you're allowed to do it". So yes, openminded, permissive, tolerant.

Don't know why a lot of the US-Americans had to twist the meaning of it.

what levels are you refering to?

I do recall Jews digging tunnels under New York City though. Are we sure this tunnel theory isn’t merely projection by Israel?

someone please explain to me how this is not antisemitic

Nemo won May 12th, The Article came May 13th and was posted here May 14th

pretty save to say everyone already learned from faster news sources

fuck and marry, kill, kill

That's why we use GOG and download the Installers!

Fuck off, Terrorist

look. you can't write out one number and then not write out the other. you have to decide yourself. either "seven out of ten" or "7 out of 10"

*collective Punishment. Speech to text does funny things sometimes.

So if a worker somewhere breaks something, every single employee should be held responsible for that?

Why should the police union be held responsible?

if a steel-worker breaks a machine, do you also wanna hold the union responsible?

no, this was this single specific person. He should be held reliable, noone else. Collective punishment is not a good thing, you know?

That is illogical to claim that NATO is keeping Russia at bay, then claiming that they are a threat

If i am using a spear to keep a Wolf at bay, is that Wolf not a threat anymore?

If someone wants to rob me and i point a gun at them go keep them at bay, are they not a threat anymore?

I rest my case, your honour.

why is russia fascist?

idk, wanting to conquer your neighbours and ethnically cleanse them isn't good enough for you? Not having any elections, political voilence and assasinations, no deviation from party-line, force-conscripting young men, absolutely no regard for human live (ukrainian or russian), dreams of a greater russian Reich

You want me to go on?

Which Countries Meet NATO’s 2% Spending Target?

It's on their own Website. Open the PDF. https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/news_197050.htm

Israel is pretty closely tied to the EU. Their Universities are all part of the Horizon-Program and they are part of the ESC (as is Austraila)

So angering the EU could be a pretty bad move.

The EU has so far stayed pretty silent because

1. the free-gaza movement has been largely hijacked by radicalist hamas-supporters and terrorists
2. The EU also has a history with Islamist Terror-Attacks so we pretty much understand the Situation Israel is in

But it sees that the rather careless approach of Nettanyahus Government in regards to Civilians has now pushed the EU over the Edge.

we should first talk about sugar and junk food

Absolutely not. Cigarettes are way way way more dangerous than sugar and junk-food

Women choosing bear over any man is okay, but man choosing bear over women is not according to the Downvotes.

kinda Telling tbh
