The minimum wage for 18-21s is different to the one for the rest?

It’s the age of stinginess

So they read the transatlantic cables, and this is what they come up with?

Don’t forget the (relatively) new protest laws

The Tories talking about human rights? That’s a good one

Of course it’s nuts, but also pretty hilarious that they chose that guy for their king experiment.

Interesting watch, good conclusion: tax the rich!

yeah, the generation blame game is getting kinda old

Have you read the study?

Because: I still only get the names of the authors when I click the link to the study. In the article on the other hand there is a link to the “study that will be published” and it goes to the same rather blank archive url that you provided.

If the study has already been published, maybe you got another source?

Edit:

I managed to get it:

But yeah, I won’t read it now, cause it’s massive. That’s also why I replied to your quotes in the first place.

Also, I think we know each other from some time ago, right?

Can‘t find the pdf of the study under the address. Then again, is it really worth reading it: They found that there isn‘t more pro-ccp stuff on TikTok than on the American platforms but less anti-ccp content on it. I mean they tried real hard finding something, looking for the decisive keywords, yet this is the outcome? There is more anti-ccp content on American platforms that on a Chinese one! Does that tell us something about Chinese or about American propaganda?

In Germany the ministry of economy led by the Green party just abandoned plans to ban those chemicals. Just a year after suggesting to ban them at the EU level.

Which instrument did you torture yourself with?

How has it been a day and no one mentioned musical instruments? Harmonising body and mind to achieve immaterial bliss.

How can we trust people that say dumb shit like that?

more expensive? Jesus

It’s all about the language I guess. Fucking off the nanny state or sensing a culture war against vapes, really?, is the language currently used by the aforementioned press.

It seems the government is going to consult about extending a vape ban, while the disposable ban and the smoking ban is what is coming now.

Vaping used to be a cool thing for quitting cigs, but it’s become a zombie and is making a lot of kids addicted to nicotine.

Nice try to derail the conversation.

This is about smoking tobacco in children playgrounds, outside hospitals and schools. Explaining it again, because there’s also the chance you’re just a bit thick.

Concerning vaping: Disposable vapes will be banned. That’s it. Wanna rage against that?

Probably you do so because you got your fodder in the Murdoch papers and just need to regurgitate your breakfast. Judging by the lingo.

So I had this idea:

Not long ago there was talk about this research that showed that colonialism wasn’t profitable for the countries undertaking it.

What was omitted though was that somebody did profit. Private citizens. Companies.

So what I thought is: they’re still around. The ones who did profit and their families and companies. And lately it seems they kinda own us all.

So how about reparations for all the ones who lost out in the gold rush. Who own no land, have no property, no capital. From all nations.

I am sure you guys are capable of doing it yourself, innit?

And I don‘t know what‘s going on with them. There weren’t any updates for years, now there is a design overhaul, no new features and suddenly they want me to register. Duck
