How much of a risk is it for naturalized US Citizens (or those with Derivative Citizenship) to protest against the US government, compared to the risks of natural-born US Citizens doing the same?

  • Oh Lord. It's amazing how many people are still complacent.

  • Marrying someone means nothing. They're taking people with green cards who are married to Americans and are making them disappear.

    • If we need a common enemy for people to get along then society has already failed

  • I quit after y2k. I worked nights for months and after it was over, my baby threw up on me one morning, I was 10 minutes late because I had to change, and my boss literally screamed at me.

  • And now people are saying climate change is like the Y2K bug and "it will fix itself" 🙄

    • Five years ago The Freedom Convoy formed to protest the government taking away peoples rights. Today peoples rights are actually being taken away and there's not even a whimper.

  • Gates and Saunders could fund them. Maybe they're not as liberal as people think, eh.

  • There is plenty of housing. There is not enough affordable housing. And I'm not talking about giant penthouses, I'm talking about ordinary apartments that are rented out for obscene amounts of money (or rather not rented out because nobody can afford them).

  • Why do you want to build monstrosities?

    • Nederlandse wetenschappers ontvangen per e-mail indringende vragenlijst van Amerikaanse overheid

    Jump

  • De Nederlandse overheid zal inderdaad geen geld voorschieten voor wetenschappelijke projecten. Ze hebben heel veel op de wetenschap bezuinigd. Er zijn mensen die al decennialang een permanente baan hebben als onderzoeker die plotseling geen geld meer krijgen. De regering heeft zelfs contracten die nog liepen opgezegd.

    Wilders en Co "geloven" niet in de wetenschap. Net als de Amerikaanse regering.

  • Nah. It fell apart when Pratchett died.

  • Ah, like the cities in The Parable of the Sower.

  • There's a difference between banning fascists and banning people who say we should be nice to each other. The paradox of intolerance.

    • Why don't carts have a little handheld scanner, then you pay at a scale?

  • Our Edeka has a system like that too.

    • I have never once have I had to descale my showerhead or faucets due to my city's water quality

  • I have to descale my kettle twice a week. It's so fucking bad.

    • Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable about many Americans constantly calling people "black" and "white" and making such a big thing about it?

  • Uganda.

    There are 6 Muslim countries that have clear laws that state gay men should be executed, but only 3 have actually done so (including Saudi Arabia, of course, because fuck Saudi Arabia in general).

    Yanno, like extremist Christians.

  • The Germans refuse to admit they're treating Muslims the way they used to treat the Jews.

  • The Jews have been discriminated against and slaughtered for CENTURIES. Herr Hitler was just one of the many, many leaders who committed genocide. They've been segregated since forever. This wasn't just 15-year booboo.

    And don't get me started on Leopold II and the Dutch and British empires.
