In other words, they’re only interested in punishing the ones that get caught, and they’ll only process it well after it’s happened so they can just deliver a slap on the wrist.

By definition, you can only punish the ones that get caught.

I don’t.

I’m a bit clumsy (ADHD) and having a cable attached to my body attached to a €1000 device is asking for trouble. I hate the cable getting tangled up, caught on things etc.

I’m not sure which countries don’t - the UK doesn’t. Germany does.

But German police seem to be eminently better trained than the US cops.

None of the icons in this meme are classed as “unskilled labour”.

A farmer? a bricklayer? are you fucking joking?

Do you have any idea how much a bricky gets paid. Probably more than you.

Another classic case of arrogant internet socialists with zero real world experience letting the mask slip.

OK, but why do you think you’re paying teenagers to work in McDonalds and not courting the best neuro-surgeons and rocket scientists?

What is it about their relative skillsets?

Except there are plenty of jobs where ten years of experience doesn’t equate to ten years better at the job.

There’s an upper limit to how efficient you can become at say - cleaning offices or picking up litter, or picking apples.

The cost of a new hire versus someone with ten years worth of experience just isn’t worth it.

What about if instead of giving police a free reign to commit brutality, he said something like “we’re going to vastly increase the funding that goes towards quality training; we’re going to reduce reliance on old military weapons and tactics; there will be less lawsuits because our police will be given a quality education.”

How about wanting the police to be the best at their jobs, rather than the most brutal?

Good. We should be in the nuclear age now with an electric infrastructure already in place and looking forward fusion and renewables.

Trying to go from fossil fuels to renewables is too difficult a step.

Why would they need to declare anything? They already are pivoting away from fossil fuels as hard as they can.

It’s weird that he thinks of it as “blackmail” though, and a thing that’s happening to “him”.

Blackmail is when someone has damning evidence against you and they threaten to release it unless you do what they want.

We saw the damning evidence. It’s been released. This is the reaction.

Mastadon is chock a block with far left crazies.

Jesus fucking christ mate turn it in.

He did a comedy show where he repeatedly professed respect fir trans people but criticised the way some people behave, and you’re acting like he “isn’t fond or minorities getting rights”

It’s just fucking psychopathic gibberish with you lot.

If this guy was white he’d be racist against blacks.

What the fuck does that even mean?

He’s black.

Calm the fuck down.

I don’t think they are all the same, and not all of them cause “offence”.

“using the wrong tone” is by definition wrong, so of course it will cause confusion and irritation.

Wouldn’t it be aautistic or non-autistic anyway?

If you can’t think of any geopolitical issues more important than some ancient statues then I can’t take you seriously as an adult.

So this is your first time looking into this topic, and yet you feel confident to give out a strong opinion and feel smug about it?

Guess what you didn’t do and modicum or research into? All the other more important topics.

N95 was my phone when my friend got the iPhone One. I remember uselessly arguing that my N95 also played videos and music and all that iPhone stuff as well… Except, it was so fucking slow to take videos.

I remember standing in the street and seeing a massive huge brawl outside of a pub, loads of people doing all sorts of crazy shit and I was standing there desperately trying to record a video while the shitty, sluggish N95 missed it all.

That experience really scarred me because now I’m obsessed with the absolute quick-draw features of modern phones - like the Google Pixel.

I don’t even know if this is true, but I’d love to know more.

Maybe we’re worth £4 a month, but they just decided to pull a higher price out of their ass to dissuade everyone from paying.

I suspect the small amount of people who decide to pay will cost more in infrastructure, and causes more headaches to meta anyway.

Welp, looks like Mitsokakis squandered an opportunity for serious discussion for some domestic points-scoring.

Just what the worlds needs now.

Pung.
