I’m not bragging about diversity just replying to someone calling switzerland an ethnostate. Jeez!

And I wouldn’t brag about most the US population being migrants from a couple centuries ago because that comes with the fact you practically wiped out the native population.

If you’d like to compare the US and Switzerland without using citizenship you could use percentage or forgein born population. 37% of the Swiss population vs 18% of the US population.

But I didn’t mean to start a US vs Switzerland contest, I just used US based statistics in my previous answer to illustrate how Switzerland is not currently an ethnostate. Especially since Switzerland contains 4 distinctive ethnicities since centuries. Schywzerdütsch have a very different culture than swiss romands or swiss italians etc. We don’t even speak the same language…

Agreed but that’s beside the point. I’m able to spend maybe 15-30 minutes a day on my phone. And apart from that I spend the rest of the day tubefed and unable to open my eyes.

If I “HAD” to work, I wouldn’t “force myself” because I cannot, I would die of starvation or whatever comes first when I run out of money.

Let’s make that an annual pilgrimage.

I’m mute, deaf, mostly paralysed and have strict cognitive limitations. I can’t work.

I voted for the ones who treat me like shit but let me stay alive and want to keep it that way.

Instead of the ones threatening to let me rot homeless in the streets until I die.

Yes that’s definitely a part. But we also score far higher than other european countries on percentage of forgien born population and a bunch of other metrics. You can’t deny Switzerland is extremely multicultural.

Though our diversity tends to be majoritarily european and western. I think we have a smaller black or arab population than our neighbours.

I’m Swiss too (dual citizen with US) haha. And yeah man it’s so much easier to just get the letter without even needing to register to vote or whatever. Automatically get it when you turn 18 and an election comes up.

switzerland? we’re 25% non-citizens which is the highest rate in europe (excluding microstates). Has caused some reactionary stuff though hence the rise of the racist far right party.

That’s compared to 7-8% of the US population for example. Or 12% of the German population (though getting german citizenship is easier than getting swiss citizenship).

can’t imagine spending my entire yearly salary on hard drives

Modern warfare seems to be very similar to world war two style warfare. Just with the things you listed added ontop. It’s not like they replaced the warfare.

For instance the war in ukraine includes Blitzkrieg combined arms type offensives, world war 1 type trench warfare, soviet type attrition warfare, and some of the most modern drone and missile warfare.

Reminds me of this racist poster by the local far right party (switzerland).

“Expel criminal foreigners. Achieve security.”

Extremely unsuprising

Picture doesn’t show unless you click the article on my UI.

In my culture we eat dinner more like 9pm.

Also “doing things” is usually not shopping. The abundant supermarkets next to the train stations let you do all needed errands on the way home from work.

They’ll still be jobs hiring. Like corner stores in my example.

But I’m willing to bet big money more people are forced to work night shifts they’d rather not work, than wish they were working night shifts.

Not to mention the societal costs and burden it brings on as it heavily impacts various health risks.

It’s a part of ownership of the means of production. Rich people buy a stake of the means of production there.

Buying there can take the form of gambling or more careful storage of money depending how it’s done. It’s a superficial structure that naturally evolves from capitalism.

how much does that kind of storage even cost. Like tens or hundrads of thousands no?

Eh, as someone who lived a large part of my life in the UK, I and my friendgroup there would definitely read this as Kamala Harris. The BBC is obsessed with US politics it’s always plastered all over their front page.

Seems like the title needs an edit here.

Good rule. Thanks for working for it.

Mostly aggregators make it more of a pain for humans trying to read and find out the source.
