Rules (2024-08-30)
- This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don't overly distort the content.
- No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
- Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don't post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don't troll nor incite hatred. Don't look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia's List of fallacies.
- No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism. We follow German law; don't question the statehood of Israel.
- Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add "/s" when you're being sarcastic (and don't use it to break rule no. 3).
- If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
- Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in other communities.
- Don't evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
- No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
- Always provide context with posts: Don't post uncontextualized images or videos, and don't start discussions without giving some context first.
(This list may get expanded as necessary.)
Posts that link to the following sources will be removed
- on any topic: Al Mayadeen, brusselssignal:eu, citjourno:com, europesays:com, Breitbart, Daily Caller, Fox, GB News, geo-trends:eu, news-pravda:com, OAN, RT, sociable:co, any AI slop sites (when in doubt please look for a credible imprint/about page), change:org (for privacy reasons)
- on Middle-East topics: Al Jazeera
- on Hungary: Euronews
Unless they're the only sources, please also avoid The Sun, Daily Mail, any "thinktank" type organization, and non-Lemmy social media. Don't link to Twitter directly, instead use xcancel.com. For Reddit, use old:reddit:com
(Lists may get expanded as necessary.)
Ban lengths, etc.
We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.
If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 7 or 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don't show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.
If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the primary mod account @EuroMod@feddit.org

The usual way dumbass. Immigrants are also workers and consumers. They create more jobs than your crony nazi politicians
That is, Nobel Prize winner ?
BTW, typical response from someone who suggests something without any fucking idea of how to do it.
Public investment. I mean you're a retard who think immigrants steal jobs. Guess what, idiot, an immigrant with a job will re-inject the money in the real economy, unlike the crony politicians and rich people you're simping for
Oh yes, the magic word that in your idea solve everything. And how exactly do you plan to fund them ? Taxing the people who cannot move out of the contry/city/whatever ?
But yes, public investments can create a number of new jobs, but they cannot keep doing it forever. You need a better plan.
To a certain degree yes, because I saw it happen, especially in situations where unscrupulous people can pay in illegal immigrant paid under the table.
Is it wrong ? Absolutely, but it is not that calling me a retard for saying it will solve the problem.
That is what you like to think.
Every immigrants I know say that they are sending money home. True, they spend something in the real economy, they need to live after all. And that are immigrants that live and work here for 20/30 years, with all the permits and so on. I would imagine that an illegal immigrant paid under the table would do the same thing.
BTW, the explanation given by them is that with the amount of money they send home, they will live way better than here when they will retire.
And how is this different from all the Germans and Brits moving to Spain retard?
Anyway your Nazi kind is demultiplicating these days but don't worry the purge will come
Oh yes, purge will come. But I am sure either of us will not like it...
You're talking about great replacement bullcrap. I'm talking about Nuremberg trials
