We need to actually appeal to people sometimes, actually talk about difficult subjects that affect people
One side wants to talk about housing, public pensions, public healthcare, public education, salaries, discrimination against women and minorities, and work/life balance.
The other side wants to talk about immigrants being bad and evil, and about how trans people in films are turning their children gay
The most voted party in the wide front coalition is LFI, earning more votes than Macron's party. Macron is refusing so far to name a president from the LFI, for the first time in the history of the 5th republic of France.
Fully aware, that's why I reject blaming the individuals as opposed to the system
Pretty sure that if you can see Valencia and surroundings, you should be able to see Barcelona which is to its northeast, and that small central peak in the Iberian Peninsula looks to me to be close to Madrid, what is it then?
Madrid is gone, reduced to ashes? And so is Barcelona? Weird

Not how it works. Public transport isn't dying due to lack of demand, it's dying because of neoliberal policy and budget cuts in government spending are the norm for the past 30 years. As an example, in Tallinn public transport is free to use for all residents. 90% of residents agree that this is a good thing. Their government is going to drop it anyway.
Even taking into account a little traffic I'd still spend 2x times the amount of time going to work compared to going by car. Not to mention it'd cost about 20-30% of my net wage to do so daily.
So you agree that public transit is underfunded and shitty? That was exactly my point.
In most of the capitalist world, transit is getting increasingly defunded and low quality, except high speed rail in some countries (which idk if counts as transit)

The events that led to the conquest of northern Africa by Arabs took place what, 1000+ years ago? You can hardly argue that "Arabs are colonialists" in modern times by judging 1000+ years old historical events, in the same way you probably wouldn't judge modern Greek people as colonialists because they speak an Indo-European language and Indo-European languages are spoken all over the continent of Europe and much beyond.
