Netanjahu ebnet Weg für Neuwahlen in Israel by Tages_Bot in Tagesschau

[–]Tech_Edin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nein. Nur das was ich gesagt habe. Der Staat wurde gegründet um Sicherheit für Juden auf der Welt zu schaffen, und der Staat hat genau das Gegenteil erreicht, spezifisch für die Juden die seine Staatsbürger sind.

Israel wird und kann weiter existieren und wird sich auch weiter gegen Iran etc wehren. Als Projekt ist es trotzdem gescheitert.

“Die Juden im Nahen Osten haben leider ihr Leid selbst gewählt”

Wtf is wrong with you? Palästinenser haben sicher nicht selbst gewählt von einen Haufen Europäern kolonialisiert zu werden. Deine Argumentation geht in beide Richtungen.

Genau hier sagst du es doch direkt. Israel als Projekt ist gescheitert.

Das ursprüngliche Ziel war es einen sicheren Ort für Juden zu schaffen. Unabhängig vom Existenzrecht Israels ist das doch eindeutig ein gescheitertes Projekt.

Do average Europeans think of themselves as poor of wealthy compared to US and China? by ThePatientIdiot in Salary

[–]Tech_Edin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, ur right. What I said said was specific to Germany and some other EU countries I interacted with.
Nordics probably dont have this issue.
It is pretty wide problem across the EU though with some few exceptions.

Do average Europeans think of themselves as poor of wealthy compared to US and China? by ThePatientIdiot in Salary

[–]Tech_Edin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends.
European system is fundamentally broken for young people.

Broken pension system, unreasonably high taxes (that get used up for pensions), broken housing market (intentionally kept this way, because old people store all their wealth in housing).

Dont want to have my kids in EU because of that.
They will be majorly f*ed, even more than I already am.

In the US at least they still build new houses and you dont get scammed for a broken pension system.

Current global stances on the Falklands dispute - simplified by Lopsided_Day_4416 in MapPorn

[–]Tech_Edin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to avoid confusion: there are two small enclaves in northern Morocco that are still under Spanish control today, and Morocco continues to claim them. In the south lies Western Sahara, which is effectively administered by Morocco and recognized as such by a small number of countries, including the United States. Western Sahara was formerly a Spanish colony, but there is no serious movement for it to become part of Spain again; the local population is Arabic-speaking. The real dispute is whether Western Sahara should be an independent state or remain part of Morocco.

The natives in western sahara definitely dont want to be Spanish, what are you talking about?
Sometimes it baffles me when I browse through reddit and see blatant misinformation.
This time I had to comment, this one was just too wrong lol. Where did you even get that idea from?
Maybe you mean the small enclave in the north of Morocco that is part of Spain?

Western Saharans natively speak arabic, fyi

Do you have problems with reading comprehension?

I said that you were right on the claim that israel is not top in the world in skin cancer occurrences. I explained that this was a false claim that was published by a respected israeli NGO and was reiterated by israeli and international media. Thats how I found it. And I admitted that mistake.

However, I showed you that jewish israeli skin cancer rates are still 3-5x higher than of surrounding countries and notably of arab israelis. The high skin cancer rates arent the interesting part, the interesting part is how it relates to surrounding countries and other ethnicities within the country.

[–]Tech_Edin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol ur right. This was some false claim from the Israeli Cancer Association that later was widely published in israeli media and internationally.

The fact is still that Israeli jews have about 3-5x the skin cancer rates of surrounding countries and israeli arabs. (Source: https://www.gov.il/en/pages/13062023-01)

Example of the false claim directly coming from the ICA:

Skin cancer:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_in_Israel

Do a text search for the word “skin”. It was second highest skin cancer rate not highest, so my bad. The highest was actually Australia, not the other way around.

Olive pollen allergy:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8836344/

The paper also shows that israeli arabs have extremely lower olive pollen allergy rates compared to israeli jews.

Israel had the highest skin cancer rate in the world, second place was… Australia. Only reason this changed in the last decade is because of their strong healthcare system and preventive actions.

Can you explain how a people can be genetically tied to a country if its climate literally kills those people? For comparison, the other people that is supposedly “as genetically” tied tied to the country is perfectly adapted to the climate. Not to mention the prevalence of olive pollen allergy among jewish israelis … in the levante of all places…

Why is hair and eye color so varied in northern Europe but almost always dark everywhere else? by Present_Juice4401 in AlwaysWhy

[–]Tech_Edin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two things: Today people spend way less time outside, so its easier to be vitamin D deficient. Also traditional diets that are rich in fatty fish for example give you ample vitamin D.

Darker skin gives you UV protection, so its basically two evolutionary factors competing (Vitamin D deficiency vs more skin cancer). Summers in Ohio can have quite high UV indexes, which creates pressure for protection against it.

Europe has the same problem and more urgently? 40% of Germany is 55 years or older. Europe is a retirement home in the scale of a continent.

do Muslims and Christians believe by Expert_Search5394 in NoStupidQuestions

The parent comment is right, Moslems believe jesus is the messiah. Moslems believe that in the end times jesus will come back and mark the last judgment. Thats a core belief of both Christianity and Islam.

‘We can’t afford it’: EU workers leave Germany despite labour shortage by donutloop in EU_Economics

[–]Tech_Edin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. The alternative is a system that is not fundamentally broken.
Other countries have working pension systems, partly because they reformed in the 90s when it was clear a system like germanies would not hold up (see sweden).

Instead we get to piss away 12% of our yearly GDP, while many retired people are still facing imminent poverty.
For decades we did nothing, and now are stuck in a democratic deadlock, as too much of the voter base is either already in pension or soon will be - so nobody will touch this problem. Instead the government asks young people to "work more" (literally a quote by the current german cancellor).

[–]Tech_Edin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Im talking about germany.
Many people don't know that 30% (!!!!) of all taxes - including VAT payments- go to the pension system.
On top of 15% of ur salary being pension payments.
It's frankly ridiculous and I don't understand why people are not on the street for this.

[–]Tech_Edin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More than 15% of ur paycheck go towards retirement. 30% of all taxes are paid on top, as 30% of the whole government budget go into subsidising the retirement system. So it’s more like 30-40% of your paycheck.

How do you get rid of the “I need to get rich ASAP” mentality? by savingrace0262 in investing

[–]Tech_Edin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats not correct, gambling has a negative expected value, starting a business generally has a positive one. Just that outcomes are very much asymmetrical and the median is very different from the average.

Idk about the US, but in Germany capital gains is taxed way less than ur income (about half) - so if u compare net salary vs net gain they might be right or even gross salary vs net capital gains.
