Europe is a fucking joke

This is the place to debate politics, global warming, and yes, even the origin of man, whatever. Simply put, if you want to argue about off topic stuff, you've found the right board. Have fun!

Europe is a fucking joke

Germany is now arresting and jaiking people for insulting others? Orwellian pussy nightmare. Aside from cheaper tickets in the Alps who would want to be there?

I won't speak for MCA but there was a very high profile piece by 60 minutes on the issue. We aren't far from this in Canada, it's coming

This is not, of course, happening in Europe.

Another angle at this (a link a few years old) which presents a bit of context.

No, Germany is in Europe.

As am I.

I am in Europe. I am in Copenhagen.

I am looking out of my window right now, at a European street.

Europe is not an 'Orewllian pussy nightmare'.

Please stop this. Come back to reality. Or come to Europe, you can get here on an aeroplane, and get on a train, and look around.

Europe is not an 'Orwellian pussy nightmare'.

Please get your news from somewhere that reflects basic reality.

I have no idea why you resorted straight to insults.

Here is the World Freedom Index.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/count ... by-country

Thirteen of the 20 freest countries in the world are European.

I live in Europe.

You have taken one instance of Germany's laws prohibiting very specific things after Germany killed some 6,000,000 Jews and maybe 1,000,000 others, and tried to tell me, a European, living in Europe, that I live in an 'Orwellian pussy nightmare'.

And you must come back to reality, and get your news from a source that reflects the way the world actually is.
