It’s also a legitimate question: what constitutes politics in the eyes of the moderators? That question cannot be answered without bringing one’s own politics into the discussion. Is queer people existing political? Bigots would claim so. Besides, war is just politics though violent means, and satire should also always be political. So being strict on the “no politics” rule is next to impossible, and selective enforcement is often worse than none at all.

I’m gonna second French and Arabic for sheer amount of speakers (native or as secondary language), as well as geographic variety.

Other than that, I would’ve said that Russian would serve you well in the post-soviet sphere of influence, but that changed recently for obvious reasons. You very likely don’t want to travel to Russia, and her neighbors don’t look to kindly on Russian either, now. Will still do in a pinch

okay, and one joke answer: Japanese, you’ll find weebs to talk to in every country

Inflation is the derivative, it’s a rate of change. It doesn’t say anything about absolute purchasing power. Past inflation contributed to raising prices massively. Currently, inflation is very low, so prices have stabelized to the new, higher level. To get them back down to pre-covid levels, you would need negative inflation (deflation), which most economists agree is a really bad thing. Instead, the goal must be to increase consumer purchasing power, by raising wages.

Fun fact, 2n + 2 = 2(n + 1)

The bullet train is wholly irrelevant here. It does not transport cargo now, does it? Build a fucking freight train line. Every time some tech bro suggests a solution involving pods, a civil engineer has a stroke

Build a god damn train

Nice

Most people are boring

Most of her policies seem to be social democratic. And I find the suggestion that European politics are nothing but a US puppetshow pretty insulting.

Wasn’t aware there was an anti-capitalist candidate running, but that’s beside the point. Why do you accuse other countries’ parties of controlled opposition? This doesn’t make any sense. Are you saying they’re propping up Kamala. Many European greens are more left than Stein

Why would European Greens be worried about the Greens getting more than 5%

ngl, good job

but

why?

why?
