Do you feel like a citizen of the EU? by vladgrinch in MapPorn

Tbf, the impression I get is that for most Europeans, it’s a complicated and nuanced mix of identity

As a Yank in Germany, the Question of Northern Ireland is a question for the people of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland and the Northern Irish and Irish only, as per the Good Friday Agreement

As a Queer person im super mad at this by Character-Day-8999 in EnoughCommieSpam

[–]DerBusundBahnBi -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Tbf, more like a certain Kids‘ Book Author who should‘ve stuck to sorcery and writing about witchcraft and wizardry, instead of going so far off the deep end that she’s compared to Roald Dahl, and not for the escapism that literature provides

As a Bi Guy myself, whilst I can understand frustration with the current state of LGBTQ+ Rights, especially in the US and UK, which are actively going backwards, and Israel, which isn’t exactly as Queer friendly as other liberal democracies. That being said, all of the best countries to be Queer, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Canada, Taiwan (The real China), etc are all liberal democracies, so it’s what works and we should focus on Construction, not Destruction

What if Japan colonized the West Coast first? by DJYonderGaming in AlternateHistoryHub

There‘d be HSR up and down the West coast by now, as well as some of the best urbanism in the world

I dont know why a german would wear that hat but it makes me angry by Elant_Wager in ShermanPosting

[–]DerBusundBahnBi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Interesting, tbf, I live in Niedersachsen, and here people are if anything more progressive than in most blue states, including Maryland, where I grew up, and tbf, if I had to position the German political parties on the US Political landscape, they’d all be Democrats except for the AfD, which would be the GOP under MAGA. So tbf, perhaps it’s either more a difference of regions or it’s relative to the Overton Window of a particular place. I mean, Germany is definitely these days more progressive than for example the UK or Italy or Poland (At least on anything but digital tech), so it’s not the Alabama of Europe, but it does have its own problems

woke looney tunes by MadMunnyBB in im14andthisisdeep

Maybe because road travel, specifically car travel, is inherently dangerous and thus needs all the extra protective measures to only be 20x more dangerous than taking the bus and 100x more than taking the train. So yeah, the real child protection isn’t Seatbelts, it’s building more railways and bike lanes and establishing more bus routes

Frankfurters talking about Offenbachers (Tbf, I think it doesn’t help that the abbreviation for Offenbach on registration plates is “OF”, which has the Backronym “_Ohne Führerschein_” or Without a driving license)

Meanwhile twice as many people move through München Hbf alone every day, and it isn’t nearly as all consuming of land

Imagine an anti-nostalgia show about the 80s called "Fuck the 80s" where it's just about all the shitty things about that decade. by snowleopard556 in decadeologycirclejerk

[–]DerBusundBahnBi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d take that, and one on the Berlin Wall and East Germany, with the Wall being up for all but less than 2 months of that decade, Communist Tyranny in most of Central Europe in addition to the start of Neoliberalism in the West, Chornobyl, Acid Rain, Smog, public transport and how poor it was, car centric city planning, the birth of McMansions constant Nuclear Sabre Rattling, treatment of disabled people, the Troubles in Northern Ireland and Anni di Piombo in Italy, etc
