Now the thing I wonder is, how many of the people you consider respectable have used the argument "tendency to blame anyone but themsekves" with you. And how is it that you don't consider admitting this embarrassing?

It feels like a metaphor for the EPP adding Poland to the authoritarian mix because it was worried that Hungary was getting lonely.

Its grimly amusing that one of the goals of the eu was to stop nazis to rise again in germany but instead its one of the contributing factors for nazis rising everywhere else. *checks notes* oh,and in germany too.cool.coolcoolcoolcool.

AceOfFlames posted:I'm serious. No, the EU won't collapse. At least not as a direct consequence of Orban winning the elections. Hungary doesn't want out of the EU and the EU can't force them out or do much about Orban's politics. https://www.washingtonpost.com/worl...m=.30dbf3227b15 Long term, it's anyone's guess. Orban's victory shows that you can succeed with "<our nation> stronk, no refugees, stable economy" platform so we may unfortunately see even more leaders like him.

I just want know if I should for example avoid buying a house in the Netherlands in case I get kicked out in 10 years due to every country going into full nacionalist lockdown mode. EDIT: And before anyone says so, I don't think the fact that I am white will save me for long. Pretty sure this country still hasn't forgotten the "lazy southerner" stereotype. At the most that just gives me more time after they get rid of all the brown people and the country isn't magically better. AceOfFlames fucked around with this message at 10:51 on Apr 9, 2018 |

Ah yes you're the Portuguese programmer in Netherlands that every couple of months has this meltdown so other posters then have to hug you and assure you that your life isn't literally in danger. Let me point out that: - you're a EU citizen in another EU country - Netherlands is one of the most liberal, welcoming and healthy places in Europe, not to mention the world - as a software engineer you have extremely in-demand skills and great job options - the fact that you're considering buying a house in Netherlands shows that you have money too - all in all you have it better than 99.99% people on this planet, and better than most posters ITT So you're either a whiny attention-seeking poo poo or someone with genuine mental problems. If it's the latter then I apologize. I'm sure you can afford counseling though.

I am seeking counselling, actually. I will bring it up in my next session. Still in the beginning phases but hopefully it will help me deal with this sort of thing without me running here screaming (it's heavily focused on getting rid of maladaptive coping strategies). Thanks for the reassurance.

I was ready to dismiss this as a conspiracy theory but it as it turns out Blair's son seems to have links to the new party so, lol. (I'm still not convinced there isn't a significant strain of antisemitism in Labour though, because if I've learned one thing it's that Labour always disappoints me.) In other news it only took the Spanish government three years to put their newly-expanded definition of terrorism to work and charge someone with terrorism for organising a peaceful protest where a highway was temporarily blocked off.

The takeaway is that: society has an anti-Semitism problem, Labour included, but that it's bigger on the right. Here's Labour's biggest stan doing a podcast with three Jewish members of the Labour Party who talk about the real problems and the bullshittiness of the media furore. https://twitter.com/OwenJones84/status/983381792311992322 GaussianCopula posted:Well, looks like the Labour Party of Israel has a clear opinion on the matter. They spell it Labor, actually. And notice that is signed by Avi Gabbay, who if you're going to accuse Labour in the UK of racism, hooo boy might want to read up on Gabbay's views on Arabic people first.

According to Reuters (https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-britain-labour-antisemitism/british-jews-protest-against-corbyn-over-anti-semitism-idUKKBN1H21HD) the latest issue with Corbyn was this quote:The issue had flared up again last week after it came to light that in 2012 Corbyn questioned a decision by London local authorities to remove a street mural depicting men in suits with big noses playing Monopoly on the backs of naked people. A picture of the mural in question can be found in this Bloomberg report https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-03-23/u-k-labour-leader-says-he-was-wrong-to-back-anti-semitic-mural
