@cszabla The article doesn't mention it but the increase in net transfers to the EU would probably give them pause. Norway is the richest country in the EEA by far...
@Mister_Knish@aceniederhoff It really depends on where you are in the state. An Italian American colleague of mine was house hunting in Darien and he said he really felt like he was from an ethnic minority there...
@karolkarpinski It has a good claim to be one of the best run urban subdivisions in the English speaking world. I wonder how much of that has to do with its unique and ancient corporatist setup...
@toozewhatnot@BillTheKid1603 I think if you put it in that context, Austria's response is perfectly legitimate by today's standards. If Mexico or any other state for that matter brazenly assassinated a senior American official, all hell would break loose.
@parresianz@batatalal This man was not a nobody. And yes the British committed heinous crimes but the Axis powers committed 1000s of Jallianwala Baghs and that's not counting the death camps. They would have done the same in India with Bose being another sad puppet Puyi.
@metr0politics Cities aren't really progressive in Eastern Europe, the divide is better understood as centrist, liberal, pro European vs populist, reactionary, anti European. The cities elect more fiscally conservative parties for example (because they pay all the taxes).
@PJ11819211 Even that debate is pretty overdone at this point. There is clearly a pan subcontinental identity, South Asian is less of a mouthful than subcontinental but if someone prefers the latter so be it, but it seems absurd to me to deny it.
