German football coach condemns 'racist' TV survey that asked participants if they wanted to see more white players on the national football team
  • The problem here is that it's a yes or no question. It's not "how do we solve problem x" but "should we just deal with x by doing y?" - which is a call for action in that exact line of thinking.

    This survey is not objective, it's subjective, with racism as part of the subjectivity.

  • Sorry to see you downvoted, but hear me out. If I create a survey, for example, asking: "do we need to carry out a ethnic cleaning on a certain ethnicity of this country?" It implies that:

    1. The survey creator and people who approve of it think that there is a substantial chunk of people who will say yes.

    2. That the idea is a valid one and if you don't agree with it, it is valid for others to think that it is reasonable.

    The idea of killing/kicking-out of people based on their race, is a part of what defines racism. The survey which validates such an idea, is racist.

  • It’s not just boomers, young people are voting far right too
  • Yes true, my perception is biased to a local housing problem where younger people can't afford apartments while old rich people own so many.

    Regardless, it's still sad that immigrants are being blamed. Even urbanisation means that they're citizens of that country, and they caused the problem themselves.

  • He's an idiot, true, and shouldn't drive at least until a fair assessment says otherwise. I was saying that there should be a better, less costly, and safe transportation for people who can't or don't want to drive to get around.

  • Delhi temperature hits 52.9C, shattering India’s national record
  • I'm from a third world country in the global South, of course I don't support any destruction. How is saying nuking a region a support to stop destruction?

    Also: I wasn't accusing them of being a bot, but I can't imagine anyone not being paid or manipulated to support nuking Europe as if it's a good idea.

  • As funny as it is, I also feel bad for the guy. This illustrates perfectly why we need a good public transport, to prevent people who don't have what it takes to drive off the road, while not preventing them from visiting their doctors.

  • It’s not just boomers, young people are voting far right too
  • They asked you if you're not racist, as if it's normal to be racist??

    It's sad to see how people get manipulated to the point that they can't understand that even a natural population growth without immigration can cause a housing crisis, if we don't build and maintain the houses. And immigrants come to work anyway, which provides a disproportionately high value to the economy compared to what most of them are paid.

  • It's because "打火機" is a noun, direct translation would be "the fire striking machine" which means the lighter. So the sentence is a shorthand to ask whether they have a lighter.
