LochNessMonster posted:Ftfy. It's possible the concept of leaving the EU is, in a vacuum, a perfectly valid choice. But it is not good for the UK at this exact moment. The educated forces (the ones not just screaming because of instinctual racism) behind leave are in this for direct power (Boris will end up PM if leave wins) and deregulation. They will dismantle what is left of worker rights and very likely enter into a terrible deal with the US that removes food standards and further privitises the NHS. Brexit under a benign Labour government, or even a passive minority Conservative one, would be bearable. Under the current situation, a rampant unstable Tory government seeking a lurch to the right and the removal of social safeguards ensured by the EU, it is terrible for everyone other than the rich who won't be affected either way.

GaussianCopula posted:As if NATO really needs the 2% defense spending. As long as the nuclear deterrent is still there, you don't need tanks or planes to defend against another nation state and as long as the USA doesn't go full Russia w.r.t. supporting autocratic regimes the war on terror will certainly not be won by military interventions, who are often not even covered by the NATO treaty but instead just use NATO facilities as support infrastructure. Nuclear deterrent didn't stop Russia from going into Ukraine. They're playing the creeping game. The final stage of which is invading a "lesser" NATO member and receiving no response. Russia realises America won't commit and then it gobbles up Eastern Europe. Not saying that's going to happen. I'm saying I think that's Russia's optimum projection for its expansionism.

drilldo squirt posted:I agree Trump is bad. Do you agree European nations passing laws targeting religious minorities are also bad and indicative of racial and xenophobic undercurrent in European society There is no easy solution to the problem of European xenophobia/racism. The state of the world is fanning the flames. We have mass austerity in an era where western nations are in limited but constant war in the Middle East, we have the resulting refugees which some westerners are literally too stupid to realise their governments are responsible for them in the first place and we have this new wave of terrorism by what amounts to a nihilistic death cult pretending to be Islamic. In this environment you are not going to able to remove the racism from the already racist. It would take decades of reeducation. Which means if Europes descent into fascism is to be stopped it won't be via direct appeal to populations. It will be via economic revival and a reduction in world chaos. The poo poo in Syria has to stop and never happen again. An entire country allowed to crumble with the resulting diaspora because, whoops, seems it lay directly in between two spheres of influence. Awkward! But we also have to accept that during economic turmoil and times of mass movement of refugees that racist sentiment is going to increase. Yes the racists are loving dumbasses and yes not everyone becomes racists during these times meaning no one HAS to lose their mind every time things get tough. But some do and there is nothing to be done about that. Preventing media from basically becoming corporate run hate propaganda would be a start. Especially in the UK. But that raises its own problems. I'm certainly not in favour of heavy state control of media like in Russia. State run stuff is fine until your "side" is no longer in power and that state run apparatus is now being used against you. Still, preventing media from running hate pieces simply because they know it'll increase profits would be a start. I'd say there are signs the UK is becoming a mediacracy and I wonder if this is also the case in other European nations. We can bemoan the racists hoardes all we like but there is an entire machine behind it. Some of it is human directed and some is just chaos working itself out much like our current system of capitalism. A beast we think we control and yet plunges us into recessions cycle after cycle. Easily manipulatable dumb people are always going to be a thing. The machinery behind the manipulation is something we can change.

Alt right is made up of people the nazis would murder but they hate blacks and jews and the welfare state and women. Also they don't really give a gently caress about their country and are all about personal freedom. I think actual WW II nazis would really loving hate alt righters for being decadent fat smell untermesnch scum. Can you imagine trying to mobilise an army of either fat neckbearded youtube personalities or skinny pony-tailed tech trolls? The two archtypes of alt right.

Geriatric Pirate posted:Actually Finland just returned to growth after about 8 years of doing nothing with unemployment falling almost 1 percentage point since the government gained power (and that's even with the left-wing throwing a hissy fit and going on strike). Things that changed: 3 center-right to right parties are in charge now. Isn't that weird? It's always charming when right wing cunts like you describe the attempts to protect workers as "hissy fits". If the center right can lower unemployment by 1% maybe the far right can manage 2%? Time to practice unique styles of saluting. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Now the centre-right will take his place and enact exactly the same policies but with the ability to be more openly racist. You're a dickhead.

GaussianCopula posted:No. Which is fine until you get an obvious imbalance like in the UK. We have about 8 right wing papers, 1 centrist but has shifted to the right because it doesn't like Corbyn (Guardian), and 1 left (Mirror) and one actual good newspaper (Independent). And boy is it affecting society. Like I don't understand why i'm one of the few people that thinks this is dangerous. Everyone you see picking up a newspaper in the UK is statistically likely to be picking up a right wing hate piece full of lies that they systematically "correct" the day after on page 2 by which time the lie has done it's work. It's like clockwork. Say something terrible and untrue, then next day put "correction" in and avoid punishment. At least on the tv side of things it's a little better. Most people watch BBC news which is just bland and not biased either way. Freedom of the press is essentially tearing this country apart at the cultural seams. I guess we just have to wait for Murdoch to die and hope things start to crumble.

I'd of thought the obvious answer was the UK. Unless something changes our society is on a crash course for horrible patriotic tinged nationalism not seen since Nazi Germany. Accept Nazi Germany actually had a big army and industry to be proud of and we're just a bunch of ill educated inbred dipshits but whatever. God save the queen.

The F-22 lines are gone and they're starting to have to cannibilise planes to keep the others working. I guess you can take it as a sign that beyond all the political circus no one in America is expecting a proper war anytime soon or they'd be panicking about the fact that we're now in the era of the west's front line fighter being a giant joke.

Fabulous Knight posted:I'm not French, but from what I understand he ran on a sort of left-ish platform that he has since completely abandoned during his five years in office. Basically promising more leftist policies but just being "more of the same"? Apparently the disappointment has been so severe that the Socialists now have no chance of winning with anyone, even someone else than Hollande. What I don't quite understand is why people who normally vote socialist are voting for right wing candidates. How is that the solution to an underperforming socialist? Or are great portions of french society just not voting this election?
