i say swears online posted:what's the fur market like in 2022 anyway? i don't think i've seen a fur coat for sale in a department store since the 90s profits had been dropping for 5 years or so. for example, in 2019 each farm lost on average 100k usd they basically lucked out majorly by getting massive damages

PERPETUAL IDIOT posted:Congratulations to the Social Democrats on their great victory. What do you mean, exterminating the mink? They all had COVID and the fear was they'd breed a vaccine escape variant just as those were rolled out. They were culled en masse, buried, exhumed because they hadn't been buried deep enough and were popping out of the ground due to decomposition gasses, and could also contaminate the water table, then ultimately incinerated. Denmark was the largest producer of mink in the world, something like 13 million mink were culled. It was absolutely the right decision, but the expropriation was technically illegal.

re: the minimum wage stuff, the scandinavian labour movement has been extremely wary of anything which takes wages out of the bargaining table, for pretty good reason. they don't want people to have less of a reason to join a union, which transferring a good chunk of wage negotiations from the parties to the political scene would effectively do.

Yes yes, but have you considered that the Nordic Model is dead? Government is also abolishing the job centers apparently. I can't imagine how they'll come up with something even worse, but I'm confident they will, since they intend to cut spending by 3 billion kroner, or 1/4 of the budget allocated to employment. Also promising "more dignified" programs for long-term unemployed, which is amazing considering Mette Frederiksen is directly responsible for most of the misery in the first place, like people doing work ability assessment from a loving hospital bed and other atrocities.

They're literally calling the planned reforms "Welfare 2.0". Regarde Aduck posted:They're just going to copy the UK model What Carthag said. The hospital bed thing wasn't an exaggeration and has happened more than once. Do yours also hire doctors to supersede diagnoses by specialists? Do they also deny disability to people who've done heroin for decades, have brain abscesses, HIV, hep C, MRSA, severe anemia, brain damage, and tuberculosis (same individual)? How about forcing people into make-work who have just had surgery for their terminal brain cancer? We can probably match any horror story coming out of the UK.

Gripweed posted:The Soviets killed all the nazis on their side of Germany. Hahahahahahahahha no. The DDR recruited literal SS people into their security apparatus, same as the other Germany, while the USSR hoovered up all the Nazi scientists that hadn't been taken by the US already. But it sure is a convenient lie that one side cared more about the ideological background of their thugs and rocket scientists.

what's the point of calling out one obviously untrue overgeneralization by just making up another of course the DDR didn't execute every single former Nazi party member, but I don't know what to tell you if you think that means denazification in the DDR was identical to the BRD

SplitSoul posted:As expected, the new Danish government will be powered by turbocharged neoliberalism. Massive tax cuts for the rich, abolition of a holiday (likely Great Prayer Day), probably further gutting of the welfare state TBD, but Mette Frederiksen avoids getting impeached for exterminating the mink, probably the only undeniably good thing she's done in her life. The last time the Social Democrats and the Liberals tried to govern together it lasted only 14 months, so here's hoping. who the gently caress gets rid of a holiday. that's beyond evil
