> from the germans who have this reputation of great engineering culture

This was more than 30 years ago. Now we have a great culture of overregulation.


Yes. It really makes no sense to take a screwdriver instead of a knife.

The west could easily start to sink ships and stop global trade. It would likely be the start of WWIII.

And another mistake (sorry). The F-22 is more advanced even if it is older.

The F-35 was developed because the US didn't want to export the F-22 tech to other countries.


If you don't fight for your rights you lose them.

Quite shocking to see the downvotes I'm getting - and you're right, I have been fighting for them, but I am only one person. But it definitely seems like most people would much rather do what they were told than risk anything.

It distresses me a bit.


Do I have the right to give my citizenship away if I don't want it anymore?

At some point you need to be nice to your children or they'll not help you when you get old and senile.

> The last time Germany had that much of a majority, it was under Bundeskanzler Kohl and Schroeder if I remember correctly. So like ~25 years ago.

This is not true. After the last election the old parliament made a deal to change the grundgesetz with 2/3rd majority to allow the new parliament to take more debt.


Some things align politically, some things don't. Who would have thought?

I would bet my money on asian societies.

I don't know. A lot of countries in East Asia seem to struggle demographically just as much as Western countries do, if not more.

But at least it seems they didn't go for the easy solutions that is mass immigration, so hopefully their children's "seats" won't be taken when they finally wake up.

On the other hand, as someone living in Central Europe, it's obvious our society is heading towards a radical change. I don't know what will happen, but I don't recall ever reading about a indigenous population becoming a minority being a good thing for them.


I think its more about a rotten ideology and mass migration is only a symptom. Also it could make sense if you would actually care about taking people that are educated and willing to work.

Working on it.
