61·11 months agoStop immigration as a mean of increasing population and keeping wages down.
Sure, it is immigration that is keeping the wages down… I have no idea which country you originate from, but immigration is probably necessary to keep your population balance in check. So they are not the reason that wages are down; that would be the few determining the wages and exploiting you and those immigrants together.
Fact is that boomers made good headway, they started unions, health and safety, human resources… Stuff that was basically unheard of before that…
That was all started by the generation before the boomers. The boomers have only gotten only the benefits of those systems. And then started and supported the dismantling of those systems.
81·1 year agoNews about the moon always gives me a big what-if sense. Like the series “For All Mankind”. It is always with a big regret that I think of what could have been. But excitement about what will be in terms of space exploration. Is there any other explanation besides money and public support for why the moon and space stopped being interesting for governments?

I think they meant “with only my skin colour matters” that Belgium has a higher rate of racism against other skin colour than just black people. As a lot of the bigotry is also cultural, so more against where you from specifically, instead of which colour is your skin. As it is in most of Europe. The North African and Arab community has got it bad since they are Muslim and brown and the biggest group of immigrants. So he definitely didn’t ignore it. He only pointed out that there are some policies in place, so that the actions of racist cops at least cannot lead to the slaughter of innocent people.
Pointing out the differences is not as bad as you think. It high lights what policies and changes can at least minimize the effect of racism. Just saying everything and everyone is racist, independent of the impact of bad and good policies, will just create a hyper cynisme that it is all shit and any change doesn’t matter.
