I admire your commitment to your principles, as I most definitely would have jumped out of the way. The driver is absolutely hammered and has little idea what he is doing. I'm not getting injured, crippled or worse to make a point. I'm not sure what the law is like in Scotland but where I'm from, drivers who kill people with their car basically get a slap on the wrist. It would be kind of pointless.

I don't know what that is. Am I in danger?

En passant, obviously.

Ah, so your point is that becoming the AfD is defeating the AfD. I guess we have to wait and see.

Sure, they try that for a couple of years now. The only support they undermine is the one they get. They're in steady decline. Good riddance.

Well, they will form a coalition with the conservatives in the future so let's see what degree of xenophobia they will reach.

I'm afraid they're turning into dogs as well...

Sure, mine away until your position is indistinguishable from theirs. That'll show them.

It can already. It's not because it's not always profitable and we live in capitalism. There are countless studies to support this. Degrowth is kind of a cringe theory as well.

What are you talking about regarding behavior? Do you think frontex will do a test at the border?

I don't think a crisis at the border justifies further fortifying Fortress Europe. And just because people are unhappy with how a crisis is handled doesn't mean they reject a more humane migration policy.

As for the article, of course Islamist homophobia is a problem. But voting AfD over it seems pretty short-sighted to me. The AfD is happy to use gay rights as a tool against migrants but that doesn't mean they actually care about protecting queer people. There's a very real possibility that once migrants are no longer the main target, queer people will be back in the firing line.

I think you're giving Russia too much credit here. The EU is making its own choices and expanding Frontex's powers to facilitate deportations through third countries is another step towards fortifying Fortress Europe. People fleeing war or poverty shouldn't have to prove they're the right kind of migrants to deserve humane treatment.

The idea that adopting right-wing policies will weaken the far right is a wild theory. It just legitimizes their positions.
