What’s funny is that even some liberals are condemning this statement, but it’s just the logical endpoint of everything else they believe. When you assimilate every piece of propaganda about places like China, Cuba, Venezuela, etc. that aren’t NATO-aligned, then the obvious conclusion is that only white Europeans are capable of building and maintaining civilization.

this is nothing new. he’s been brandishing this reform since 2019 and thankfully back then it got stopped by covid. also it’s an outright lie to say that social security is bankrupt. increasing the legal retirement age is mostly just a ploy to reduce pensions.

and it’s not going to be stopped by protests either this time. union led demonstrations are increasingly weak. people are legit afraid of protesting thanks to his brutal repression of the gilets jaunes. they’ve also largely been contaminated by terminal theresnopointitis. at this point the british (the loving british!) are better at striking and demonstrations than the french.

Yes. They previously sold control of the national energy grid to Goldman Sachs. They're also planning on shipping refugees to a concentration camp in Rwanda.

The nominally left-most party, the Unity List, made complete fools of themselves recently by refusing to consider the Rwanda camp plan a dealbreaker, they would only withdraw support from the government once a person was actually put on a plane. Then the Social Democrats proclaimed they would seek a coalition across the aisle anyway.

I briefly considered voting for the Free Greens, they've actually said some incredibly radical stuff lately, that we need to end private property and expropriate agricultural land, etc., and most of their candidates are non-white, but they're polling at 0.7% and unlikely to get in.

Ukrainians are exempted from all the terrible poo poo we do to non-white refugees, like confiscating all their cash and valuables at the border, paying them below-subsistence allowance, putting them in camps inside military training grounds, etc. What do you think?

The decline is pretty wild. Do you think they knew already in 2010 that they'd be standing up for small business owners, praising cops and lauding NATO's nuclear umbrella so soon? Like, if you beamed some of Dragsted's posts back in time two decades, and he got to read that poo poo while he was otherwise busy taking a chainsaw to the fence of a nazi fortress, would he be like :eyepop:?

Social Liberals who forced the election are getting loving crushed. :lmao:

Voters did not reward the Unity List for their "pragmatism", either. Oops.

The Liberal Alliance party looks to be almost quadrupled. A lot of first-time voters apparently liked the TikTok politician who goes by the moniker "Daddy".

The nazi parties who've replaced the Danish People's Party all did extremely well.
