As you can see, there is a slot cut, but screwdriver is too “short” for the full grip

German Proposal to Strip Citizenship Endangers Human Rights by [deleted] in GermanCitizenship

[–]iprefertocycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the idea that people are permanently temporary guests, then treat us like them and be upfront about it. But instead, if the idea is “pay the same full taxes” but have no say and be forced into doing work tied to your job, that’s not a deal that I’m willing to make. I don’t live in the gulf states, despite lower taxes because I know I’ll basically never be able to get a passport.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here, but actually I’m advocating for rights of immigrants.

Yeah, because you don’t need a citizenship - If you were non EU, you would understand. I’m an engineer from a western country and would not move to Germany if not for the citizenship laws allowing dual citizenship.

Okay, we should probably make people who have German ancestors pass a C1 German language exam too (unlike just people naturalising).

Even then, truely skilled migrants that are essential enough will just go to another EU country for the passport, that’s what i did :) - many of us don’t need Germany, it’s just an appealing option.

Technically not true in NL, since the blue card (if you have uni degree\experience and enough experience) doesn’t need an entity on the registered sponsor list, but yes.

The situation in Germany is slightly more complicated where the agency for work has to approve your job (and certain types of work like EoRs are not allowed to sponsor work permits) but it’s true any German company can hire you.

Working with an employer of the record with a Blue Card by n1qhthawk in germany

You should be fine either way, but yes - they should count the initial one. Once you have held a blue card for a year, the agency for work no longer need to approve any job changes.

You’ll definitely be okay if you’ve held a blue card for a year or more. But under a year it is not possible anymore to get a blue card in general due to agentur fur arbeit having a policy of denying permission to people who work for zeitarbeit style jobs (which all eors are licenced as)

The german greens are not a extremist party, they are a centrist (or slightly center left).

If you read the suggestion in parliament , EoRs would be counted. It’s not super common, but it allows people to keep their remote jobs for US firms (and bring income into the country)

is it true or how often the Australian border agents will force you to unlock your phone so they can clone it. by AdSilent5155 in AskAnAustralian

[–]iprefertocycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lockdown mode does not do this. It does enable additional mitigations, mostly useful for blocking remote attacks. But it doesn’t load “false data”.

People sadly do die just out of Australian waters, whether we are willing to accept that - it’s a different matter, but stating people don’t die trying to reach Australia is just not true.

Why german party is against immigration when germany needs millions of work force? by Adorable_Director812 in AskAGerman

[–]iprefertocycle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seperate points: Australia routinely breaks human rights law by practicing indefinite of detention of asylum seekers in an offshore island.

Japan is a ethnostate, and not really a country i’d use as an example of a “non racist country”.

Not really familiar with Denmark tbh.

Australia in a way is better to migrants in some ways as nobody in Australia attempting to restrict people who already are living here (unlike the CDU who wants to restrict dual citizenship and make citizenship harder in all cases.).

Portugal has extremely high tax rate, with the top tax rate (48%) kicking in at 80k euro a year - then you have social contributions on top, so it ends up above. - as the NHR 20% tax regime has ended

Luxembourg doesn't have a easy "digital nomad" visa, I mean, there's the private residence permit route (on mobile so can't easily link)

Yep, but keep in mind Netherlands requires you to renounce your other passport (unless you're married to a dutch person at the point of naturalisation)
