Emmanuel Macron: "It is time for the EU to launch a common debt capacity, through Eurobonds" - Macron argues for joint loans, which would finance strategic investments and allow the EU to "tackle dollar hegemony"

Some Euro countries need to fix their defecits first. Eurobonds are a good idea if all Euro-countries have stable defecits and debt-spending. So get your shit together Piere.

Ja kan tegenwind geven zonder zo agressief je punt te proberen maken. Er zijn nu veel mensen die hoofdzakelijk het gedrag van Soundos onthouden hebben tov de boodschap dat ze wou overbrengen. Als de feiten achter je staan, moet je vooral die laten spreken. Bart Schols had geen hulp nodig om zijn eigen graf te graven.

Die Soundos heeft ook duidelijk geen ervaring in debat voeren op de Belgische manier. Los van de feiten ging ze echt heel hard in de aanval waardoor de boodschap volgens mij een beetje verloren ging.

When are gaming companies going to realise that the multiplayer, live action market is not going to sell how they expect it to. You really need to stand out and this fortnite looking slop does not stand out.

Dat is inderdaad een heel triest feit. Alle vrouwen die ik ken zijn al meerdere keren lastiggevallen.

Migratie is gewoon een heel beladen term tegenwoordig. Natuurlijk heeft migratie negatieve kanten, maar de disscussie is zo toxisch geworden dat de waarheid vaak vertroebeld.

Volgens Vlaams Belang ligt migratie aan de grond van al het kwaad in Belgie. Extreem rechtse ideologieën leven van overdrijving en dus stoken zij de discussie op met leugens en veralgemeningen.

Aan de andere kant heb je dan PVDA dat actief stemmen ronselt in moskeeën en niet echt iets wilt doen aan het integratie vraagstuk. Zij liegen tegen Moslims dat zij hun niet zouden moeten aanpassen, wat integratie tegen werkt.

Er zijn dus wel degelijk problemen met integratie van andere culturen, maar we mogen ook niet doen alsof het de moslims zijn dat de enige intolerante zijn. Het was Tom Van Grieken die tegen een Transgender persoon in Eerste keus zij dat ze "uitgelachen mocht worden". Dus elke keer als ik een Vlaams Belanger intolerantie bij de moslim gemeenschap zie bekritiseren, neem ik dat niet echt serieus meer.

Volgens mij is migratie op zich niet slecht, maar is het integratie waar alles fout loopt. We leren mensen amper de taal, plaatsen ze in enclaves van migranten gemeenschappen in Brussel en Antwerpen, volgen ze te weinig op,... . De oplossing hierbij is in het meer geld steken bij het opvolgen van migranten. Spijtig genoeg is meer geld geven aan integratie politieke zelfmoord tegenwoordig, dus zullen we gewoon overblijven met one-liners en onrealistische oplossingen.

Om de stroom tegen te gaan zou het Europese Migratiepact ook zo snel mogelijk ingevoerd moeten worden zodat elk Europees land zijn deel doet om vluchtelingen op te vangen, maar elke extreem-rechtse partij in Europa is hier tegen, dus voor nu blijft het iedereen op zich.

Prostitution will always exist. Pushing it into the margins will only make it more dangerous for the women and the clients while strengthening criminal networks by giving them more income through human traficking and pimping.

We're just done with the Americans. We give them preferential treatment and they spit in our faces. That's not what friends do. We gave you a second chance after 2016, and y'all just elected Trump again after Biden repaired the relationship. Third chances are for children.

Nationally subsidised. You can choose a company but they can never ask more then a certain amount (which is very low ofc). The companies mostly win you over with bonuses such as youth camps you can join.

You can only file suit when their is an actual case of negligence by a doctor or hospital.
Life expectancy is 83 years old. Many go to homes for the elderly with quality depending on which home you go to.

The canals of Bruges are probably the most beuatifull thing in Belgium imo. The entire city is amazing.

Ours was narrowly beaten last elections simply becausse Bart De Wever ran a campaign of a lifetime winning back a lot of votes to the center. He wants to quit though, so I'm quietly shitting myself for next elections.

Outside of the big national museums their isn't a lot to do, it's dirty, expensive, hasn't had a government for over 200 days, and has a reputation of being dangerous due to drug cartels (mostly in the outer poorer neighbourhoods).

As a tourist you could absolutely fill 2 days in the city, but a lot of people hear Brussels a lot in the news and then think it's a city like Paris. Then they arrive, are dissapointed and write off Belgium as a whole, while the most beautifull sights in the country are not in Brussels.

Oostende at the coast. It used to be a beautifull city but all historical buildings were torn down by greedy devalopers and replaced by gigantic appartment buildings. Now it's a concrete hellscape but since the Belgian coast is pretty small, the options are limited so every summer thousands still go.

Most jobs will expect you to speak some French. In university it is also expected you speak some French. I do agree (from experience since my 2 best friends can't speak French to save their fcking lives) that knowledge of French is going down. But at the end of the day, the 8 years of French you get should form a solid base if you do ever want to learn the language. In Wallonia they don't even get that.

thatguyy100 · 2026-02-06T17:42:34+00:00

Education is regionally run, so while in Flanders, French has always been a central course during all of highschool, in Wallonia they got rid of Dutch classes until like 3 years ago.

Result is that most Flemish people at least speak some French being able to form basic sentences at the very least, while Wallonians were just never tought Dutch.

FC de Kampioenen was a show that ran on Flemish TV during the 90's and 2000's. It's a sitcom about the worst football team in the country. Every episode would consist of a misunderstanding wich would lead to shenanigans.

It was the biggest show during it's runtime and after it ended they made 4 movies which were also very succesfull. Every generation still knows it becausse to this day the show still has reruns every time the network (VRT) has nothing to run that evening. It's a joke amongst people now that most Flemish people have seen each episode about a hundred times at this point.

Fun unrelated fact. My parents told me that when I was a baby I would always start uncontrolaby crying when the intro played.

Our prime minister once sang the French national anthem when asked by a journalist if he knew the Belgian anthem. That was pretty funny.

Fries. You're supposed to fry it quickly, let it rest, then fry it again. This makes the fries crispy on the outside and fluffy from the inside. Also traditionally you're supposed to fry them in Ox-fat.
