In Germany the state collects church tax if you are catholic or protestant. Half the healthcare system belongs to the church and is pumped full of money by the federal budget so they (the church) don’t have to pay much and still get all of the publicity. And due to being managed by the church many hospitals don’t offer abortions and it is harder for people who arent members of the church to get a job there. Dont even get me started on the separate work laws in christian institutions which forbid striking and pay different than non church jobs.

I go around the problem by barely having to use a Computer at work. Pretty much the only thing I do with it is feed data into an online databank over a browser

I speak English and German mostly fluent, and although I can’t speak it per se I also had Latin and ancient Greek in school. And I am meaning to but constantly forgetting to start learning Lower German and Arabic.

Would you find it okay if a 15 year old had sex with a 25 year old?

Lemmy is full of white men in their 40s to 50s. People this age love to shit on everything younger than them especially when it comes to pop culture or women

I didn’t know that Brazil and Argentina were so bad with the whole tradwife thing

He is hypocritical, claiming that he wants liberation and rights for all and then continuing to pay people to torture animals to death so he can get a little pleasure from it.

I don’t unterstand why people are so hung up on the whole ‘did he schock the dog or not’ thing when they mostly pay for way worse stuff to be done to animals.

The Nazis also had many out groups. Jews were by far not the only people discriminated against under the laws of the third reich.

He should follow through on his name amd get quartered

Am I the only person that uses KISS launcher on this site? Once I got used to how it functions switching to something different will be hard.

Do you mean the same Mamdani that gets hindered by establishment Dems at every chance possible? The Democrats want to maintain the economic status quo, the only time the party shows socially progressive views is when they think it profits them.

But if the guy that hates trans and homeless people becomes president do you really think that the Dems would ever again platform someone that doesn’t want a genocide in their own country? And why do people have to support the piece of shit before he gets legitimised in any way through a primary anyways?

Force people to vote against their rights, why dont you?

The guy that currently gets hyped up as a possible next democratic presidential candidate, Gavin Newsom, is a transphobic neoliberal that would gladly sell queer people out if he thought that this would help him at the polls.

I don’t know where they live but in my country the liberal party is one of the most right wing parties that ever got into the parliament.

I feel so happy to not live in the US where apparently the only choices are between a guy who wants to put me in a concentration camp and a guy that has no qualms about putting me in a concentration camp if it got him a few additional percents of votes.

Bismarck only enacted those welfare laws to take the wind out of the sails of leftist labourer movements

I never said that no man ever is affected by violence but when nine out of ten women got sexually assaulted or harassed and that startimg from a young age, all the while the majority of men don’t seem to have problems being friends with these abusers it should be no surprise that many women will try to stay safe.

I have friends that get read as women who can’t do stuff that would be completely normal for any cis male (like going to a festival alone) because there is a real possibility of them being assaulted, murdered or at the very least getting harassed. And even if it is only one in a hundred men that would do such things it doesn’t matter if the other 99 do nothing to stop it.

There is a massive underreporting of sexual abuse against men because men get taught from childhood that having sex is always something good and that they never should show weakness. Who is it that gratulates 15 year old boys when they get raped by a female teacher?
