I think this perfectly illustrates the problem with the gun laws in the US. In every other country, something like you described would be the norm. The problem in the US is that each side has to think of the possibility the other one has a gun which by itself already escalates these situations tremendously.

Of course there still was political music. But it was the rise or high point of the apolitical bland commercial pop culture. I am thinking of Britney Spears and the countless boy bands

Hmm gab es sowas nicht schonmal nur mit einem "Miet-" am Anfang und wurde von der CDU verteufelt und schließlich vom Verfassungsgericht kassiert?

That's a very US-centric view

Wird der Begriff "bergen" nicht nur bei Leichen benutzt eigentlich?

I wasn't talking about peace. I was talking about euphoria and apoliticalness in culture

I blame the 90s. I guess because of the sudden end of the cold war everything was more or less euphoric and apolitical for a while and people got used to it.

Come on. They literally state "love does not pay for childcare" instead of advocating free childcare. And the subtext is falsely trying to reframe it, which was my whole point.

The point here is NOT that poor people shouldn't have kids, it's that no one should be having kids without having the basics of childcare covered

That's just false. It's literaly what the last sentence says. Otherwise they would advocate for child welfare instead.

 

Morgen sogar fast -40ct/kWh! Nach Steuern und Abgaben.

Musste ich einfach mal los werden.

 

Spannender geht's fast nicht
