I asked which ones. Denmark has a surplus, but that’s accidental and no one’s trying to keep it that way.
And if you’re about to give Qatar as an example, the point is moot.

Which countries are running on a profit, exactly?
The Russian “justice” system has a conviction rate of 99.3%. It’s safe to say they’re giving large swathes of completely innocent people the death penalty here - people who are someone’s father, child, or friend.
Is that the system you see as exemplary for the west? Are these the Russian family values I’m always hearing so much about?
The system of integration for migrants failed in Sweden (as it was hardly even existent in the first place). That’s the systemic cause.
The acute symptom of this currently is gang violence. That said, the symptom is like a cancer that runs itself, the criminal systems underpinning gang violence are now established and you won’t get rid of them by being nice anymore.
So you have to fight both the symptoms and the causes… Which Sweden is beginning to do. Reinstating and hardening penalties for organized and violent crime to get rid of the acute symptoms, as well as stopping the inflow of non-European migrants to stop the cause.
The Swedish government didn’t say they’ll never take non-European migrants again, but it’s clear the whole system needs a huge overhaul.
Whataboutism be like
There is no migrant violence in Ba Sing Se
3 people in 12 hours in one city was their last record. Gang-related killings have been steadily rising for years and they’ve currently reached a boiling point where dozens of people die every month just in Stockholm.
Ah yes, it’s far right populists that caused this and not the gangs who killed two people in shootings and another in an explosion in Stockholm just two days ago… lmao
And yeah, these are unintegrated migrants imported from 2015 onwards, who failed to integrate and now run massively violent, warring gangs that are currently responsible for an unprecedented amount of violent deaths in Sweden’s largest cities. Putting our heads in the sand regarding real issues for fear of being racist is what got us here in the first place.
Look at the data, and act, just as Sweden’s LEFT-WING government is CURRENTLY doing because the situation has now become untenable.
Keeps out the new users we’ll need to keep this place alive, you mean
This is gonna be the death of democracy when political advertising comes into play (as it already has).
“Point this piece of fake news at uneducated 40 year old single parents in <area>” - "point this piece of scientific news reinforcing my party’s message at university students who are interested in " and on and on.
My mom gets fake news advertisements on Facebook all the time, occasionally they are political in nature. Platforms aren’t doing their due diligence at all, so government must act to restrict the information that can be collected and the specificity of the targeting that may be employed.
Our economies worked in TV times, with broad-stroke advertising - why couldn’t they now? We don’t need this.
At they very least, I think short-distance flights need to be made way more expensive. Like a 70€ minimum ticket price on all flights.
There’s no way in hell we’re getting through the climate crisis when a German can pay 20€ for a flight to Mallorca and back, but pays 200€ for a train to the other side of the country.
