  • His statement is unfortunately untrue and part of the Russian narrative (although probably the poster is unaware).

    Russia is deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure to freeze out Ukrainian civilians in the hopes they will force their government to capitulate. This is the modern version of carpet bombing cities. Their ballistic missiles are plenty accurate and the only types of weapons that can properly damage hard targets like powerplants.

    Ukraine is cold now, and will be colder in a few weeks. By products of power generation is heat, and used for heating homes.

    Russians target hospitals, universities, cultural centres and locations with a lot of citizens. They even do double tap attacks (hitting a civilian target like a coffee shop and then 7 minutes later… once first responders arrived hit the exact same place again).

    A random housing block far behind the front might be deviated ordenance… hitting powerplants with a kinzal missile is not.



  • Such a rubbish stance. People want to be usefull. So if the basics are met companies will need to make sure they are not exploitative shitholes like they are now.

    Absolutely there is a risk, but this risk is created not by inherent lazyness of people but the shitty/dangerous/ unfulfilling/soul crushing jobs, shitty middle management, asshole atmosphere and the hustle required. You have the effect right but the cause wrong.

    This would in practice mean that shitty jobs need to pay a hell of a lot more… which is good. Then the MBAs can figure out if making the job less of a hellish place can cause them to pay less and where break-even is.















  • The 1st generation… the actual migrants where never integrated… as the views of the time (by everyone) where that this was not needed. Since then the issues first festered and grew… once it became politically divisive the left and right parties started to both try and solve it with policy that can almost be subscribes as a pendulum swinging.

    One side blaming everything on the class inequality and refusing to acknowledge that there might be cultural/religious issues at play next to the class issues. While the right refuses to acknowledge the class issues, only thumping on the cultural/religious issues.



  • Daily more stuff comes out. Like the fans against the taxi drivers, turns out the taxi drivers instigated, maybe because of the flag incident the day before… who knows yet. The investigation is in full swing. But then no need for truth when there is a narrative to be sold… By both sides!

    Regardless of what specifically happened, the tension in Dutch society surrounding marrokan youths might have gotten the final nudge by the last few days. This is the thing our current government has probably been waiting on to use it as a cudgel to enact some harsh laws.

    We’re talking people who are 3rd and 4th generation after migration to the Netherlands who might get their passports revoked and deported. The fact that the marrokan law states you are always Marokkan and have a passport makes this possible.

    Regardless of how you feel about the whole string of incidents, fanning the flames from the outside will make things a lot worse. And I don’t mean for the Maccabi supporters.
