So, he’s Xitler now?

I agree with both, actually. However, most people do agree over abortion rights. A recent survey found that more than 80% of people agree with abortion rights.

Oh, we’ve got some shitheads taking every culture war talking point from you guys. On of them tried to import the abortion debate, thinking it would spark outrage despite pretty much everyone over here agreeing with abortion rights - as any sane person would. And this shithead probably gets voted into one of the highest positions of government early next year.

That honestly wasn’t a good idea from the get-go. Don’t get me wrong, I’m really glad to be in Germany instead of the US, but there are several reasons I’d be open to leave for years now. It’s been obvious we’ve been running into major future problems nobody does anything about. But then again, once you actually look into it, pretty much every country has gone to shit or never has been anything but.

A small list of problems in Germany: political shift to the far right; reliance on a dying industry; avoiding debt at all costs; no investment in infrastructure or any modernization; the inevitable collapse of our pension system; degrading health care; pretty much missing workers in all fields and still hating on immigrants; a crippling bureaucracy overhead for everything; a society dead-set on both complaining about everything and wanting to change nothing.

That’s so much smarter than voting for far right shitstains to ‘protest’. Would love to see this all over Europe instead of the rise of fascism.

Maybe, but I think it will remain more popular than before. Let’s say there are 10% of people in any given group who would theoretically believe bullshit - the number is chosen randomly. Thanks to stuff like TikTok they are way more likely to come into contact with lots of different bullshit to believe in than ever before.

Kind of like how Republicans would be more popular if everyone would watch Fox News every day.

Kind of? I remember a statistic about pseudo-science being more popular with younger generations. Energy healing, healing stones and all that other homeopathic bullshit. Assuming that is indeed correct, Flat Earth is likely more popular too.

It probably does okay simply by virtue of being so stupid, there aren’t many people in their right mind producing videos about the earth being round to drown them out.

It’s quite logical even. Right-wing answers are short, simple and spoken with certainty. That’s great for a half-minute clip. Answers grounded in reality are complex, require proof and have some uncertainty. That’s not gonna fit in there, or, at the very least, you need an outstanding communicator.

No matter the age, most people stick just with what they hear most often.

Also, each satelite that burns up upon re-entry isn’t just gone - it still introduces vaporized materials into the upper atmosphere.

Iirc they are harming the ozone layer.

As always, you guys are way too fixated on size.
