I guess there’s a bit of a difference between some EU states and US in this. In Finland, rising unemployment level has been entirely due to immigrants and we are not yet throwing them out due to this.
Most of the recent new immigrants are from Ukraine, so I guess that’d be a bit too evil even for an austerity government.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that reading scores have plummeted in school districts around the U.S.English
41·5 days agoThe inconvenient truth for us old shits is that the parents are at fault mostly. Mostly we were powerless to stop it as a megatrend of course, but also many of us used our own money and our own free will (if there’s such a thing) to buy our kids those devices and then let them use them freely.
Literally every ancestor of yours disagreed

3·8 days agoSenility and not giving a fuck is a bad combination.
It’s nothing short of impressive that he was able to stick to his values and reverse the damage at the same time.
Was he able to do that? How do we know that at this point?

6·8 days agoSadly no. There are only 11 countries that have official relations with Taiwan. Almost all other countries either clearly think it’s a part of China, or have an ambiguous position towards it. Most western countries are in that last group.
