can europe offer refugee status to people that don't want to live in the US anymore?

[–] the_wise_wolf@feddit.org 21 points 5 days ago

Yes. Let's trade!

listen, it works out for both of us. I get a country that values human lives and privacy a little more than my current one, and you get some good mexican food. you ever had a taco before? it's gonna change your entire world.

[–] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

We don't need tacos, we have tacos at home.

The tacos at home:

Is there anything tacos can't solve??

[–] foggy@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Medicinal tacos, check mate.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

We have Mexicans and taco trucks too.
And I can cook, so looks like you have nothing to offer.
The best thing you can do is give back the land you stole from Mexico.
You don't even need to move if you're in the south.

When the nazis invaded our countries, we didn't just move...

In Europe alone it is estimated as many as 65 million people were forced from their homes by the war including those used as slave labour by the Nazis, ex-Prisoners of War, and the millions of citizens whose homes had been bombed and shelled and who had fled advancing armies.

read until the end of the quote

and the millions of citizens whose homes had been bombed and shelled and who had fled advancing armies.

[–] danekrae@lemmy.world -1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

fled

Who am I kidding, laconic phrases won't work here...

whose homes had been bombed and shelled

[–] kazerniel@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You're acting deliberately obtuse. Millions of people fled from the war, also known as "moving", to reference your original comment.

[–] danekrae@lemmy.world -1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I'M the obtuse one? You're acting like fleeing from your bombed home, is the same as choosing to move away from idiocy...

"refugee and migrant is the same thing"...

[–] TheDoozer@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

Leaving before the rush?

[–] _cryptagion@anarchist.nexus 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

there's a lot more wrong with the US than just the nazis in power.

True, quite a lot of you welcome them with open arms instead. 🤮

Those people are buried in an unmarked grave pretty close to where I live.

here is a danish wiki article

The execution shed at Christianshavn (also called the shooting shed) was one of the two places where the death sentences in the Danish court battle after the occupation were consummated in 1946-50. The second place of execution was in Undallslund plantation at Viborg.

The execution shed was an architect-designed boardhouse with concrete floor built in one of the more distant parts of Holmen, at 2. Redan of Enveloppen at Margretheholm. The original drawing, which can be found in the National Archives, is referred to as "Pistol Shooting Space. Shed to Skiver" (i.e. target slices) but the place was only listed for the executions. 1]

The concrete floor with drain grate can still be seen. Enveloppen is part of Fristaden Christiania (Bådsmandsstrædes Kaserne) under the name Dyssen, and the historical powder magazine at 2. Redan is called Airconditionair conditioning. The concrete foundation lies at the end of the building's angle, right on the eastern side of the path. A wooden shed, which is based on the same drawings, but built 1980, stands by the building The cosmic flower on Syddyssen, which is the historical gunpowder magazine at 5. Redan.[[2]

30 death row inmates were executed by firing here. The most recent was Ib Birkedal Hansen on 20 July 1950 at 9pm. 01:00, which was also the last to be executed in Denmark. 16 others were executed in Undallslund.[ 3] [[4]
