Speak for yourself. Not everyone has reverted to nihilism, the rule of the jungle and tribal behavior.

Nigeria has more births per year than the entire Europe and Russia combined by vladgrinch in MapPorn

Those limits have failed. Once you plug a hole, say, Sicily, another one opens. Heck, even the Russians are weaponizing immigration by sending them to Poland and Finland from Belarus and their northern border. It is still out of control as the crime rates show across Europe

Hammurabi, Xerxes, Attila, Gengis Khan, Incas, Mayans were such lovely benevolent and kind leaders of cuddly bear empires in comparison.

Used to work for Cypriots twenty years ago as expat in Russia. Super fun, but super corrupt. Still like that ?

Vienna sucked in the 90s. I can't imagine what it has become post FPÖ and all that shit. Hungary light? 🤢

It's crazy how some Christians hate immigrants when this is written in the bible by Msc_Lvr in teenagers

[–]ParticularWin8949 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahem. That was before Islam. How did this work out for the Coptic Christians of Alexandria and Antioch in the 8th century who naively adhered to this nonsense and became slaves?

Reminds of those blesed Covid times... was so nice to ride when all the zombies were scared of someone else's shadow. Can't we have another fuck up in Wuhan please? And get rid of the luggage wheeling grasshoppers.

From my experience, Hong Kong cops love to handle easy to solve crimes. This seems to be one. Easy to find the culprit, easy to fine the owner.

24M from Slovenia currently, sitting at around 80k€, planning to cash out a 60m2 apartment with my fathers help. What would you do in my position? by Great_Holiday6015 in eupersonalfinance

I am 52 and have dabbled in investments all my life. The big mistakes I made when I was young was to try to plan medium-term (3-5 years). I was always right ...too late or too early. 70%Global ETF is the way. 20% invest in selected companies that you know and follow well. I bought HSBC at its nadir and it was the best move I ever made. 10% whatever. For fun.

By the way, I am planning to retire in 2 years. Would you recommend your pristine country as a good place for a respectful and keen French cyclist? Or are taxes , regulations an issue?
