There are good reasons to go to Germany, like relatively high salaries (it always depends on where you’re comparing. At least in the fields I’m about to work in you earn significantly more in Germany than in Austria), high security, good schools and universities, … (similar to Austria in that regard, maybe slightly worse).

The only reason against Europe in general is that you pay a lot for mandatory purchases (a home (doesn’t matter if rented or bought), groceries, …). Personally I still prefer that over cheaper costs of living but less security, worse child- and healthcare etc. but something has to change, because it’s only getting more extreme.

If the development of 50 years ago to today will continue for the next 50 years something like a civil war is inevitable.

Sustainable energy is heavily subsidised in Europe. Thanks to that we have 80% renewable energy production in Austria (and buy some non-renewable energy from other countries but still, we’re on a good way).

It’s not like antisemitism prevented people from supporting the NSDAP (in many cases the opposite). Sure, when they were elected they didn’t know what to do with Jews yet, but antisemitism was one of the pillars of their philosophy (if the people are unhappy you have to take responsibility or simply point at someone and say “they are responsible, it’s their fault”) and antisemitism has existed since forever. (Of course there were not only Jews in concentration camps but they were initially made for them).

And sadly antisemitism still exists today in many areas of the world.

That’s fundamentally different from steel. We don’t really have an alternative currently. You could use something like aluminium but that’s not environmentally friendly either (in the initial production, for recycling it’s great).

Coal is required for steel, electricty-based heat would only work to lower carbon emissions (especially when recycling steel since you don’t need coal there), but you couldn’t prevent them.

No, it obviously is a family activity to get drunk together.

I’ll assume they mean the countries that currently support Ukraine

Oh, I thought the Google camera app lost the pixel-specific fine tuning. Nice to know, thanks.
