Except the players with the biggest headstart get to make up the rules of the game.

What's her motivation in this?

Did she realise how incredibly corrupt this is and wanted to call it out?

Did she want to shout out how fantastic the system is, that just by voting for the right candidate she earned a million?

Is she just stupid, and thought this was a brag?

What in the world could make this person admit to selling their vote to a fascist?

I've never used those apps myself, but I think a factor is, how do you meet other people when you start working most of the day? Most of my friends who use dating apps, do so because meeting someone at the job is unrealistic, and in some fields, super dumb. So instead they'd have to hope to meet someone at an event or something, but after working a full week, they don't want to go to events all over the city in the hope that they meet someone, especially not when datings apps are so readily available and easy to use.

I'm not sure when the shift happened, but I had many friends using dating apps mid 2010's when they started working after highschool, for lack of a better option.

He was inside you all along

And how do you determine who raped who if it's a question about how drunk you were? I have had a lot of nights out in my teens (european), where I have no clue what happened after midnight, but didn't get home until 05:00. If I had sex with someone pretty much equally as drunk, who did the raping?

The prick is a fucking nazi, and needs to face the 1945 consequenses of being the nazi minister of propaganda. He doesn't just get to pull back a bit and sit in his cosy Tesla office, acting like he isn't the most deplorable waste of oxygen the world has ever seen.

My computer is always in the mood for whatever activity I wanna do. My wife is usually too busy with her computer.

Nothing surprising really. Hopefully when people start to die at a high rate from completely preventable diseases and start getting sick from poor food quality, they realise what has to happen to fix it.

I suppose a percentage based on multiple factors could work. Like, just spitballing numbers here.

  • 50% would be based off of ownership. If the ownership is completely european, the product gets 50%
  • 50% would be based off of manufacturing location. If 80% of the product is from Europe, then the product gets 80% of 50%, so 40%.
  • Final score, 90% european. Label the product with this percentage, and you'll possibly have an advantage over your competitor if your percentage is higher.

It would however be quite expensive to make the documentation for every single product sold, but Denmark already requires something more convoluted and detailed with construction materials and environmental impact, so I suppose it wouldn't be impossible to implement. Just a matter of will.

Edit. Fucked up the percentage stuff a bit, made it make sense.

Some of them are, sure, but the people working and producing the products in a different country will also pay taxes to that country.

Even if we ignore the workers' taxes, if I was to buy an ingredient for my product from an american company, they will pay taxes from the money I paid them. This is why what Salling is doing is at best a bit useless and at worst completely misleading. I will have no clue wether or not something has been imported and repackaged, had ingredients imported, or is 100% european produced with the labeling. In essense all it tells me, is that the person who sold the final product is situated in Europe in some capacity.

may very well be, but my point was more that even with labelling euro products this way, you're still not guarenteed not to support american corporations.

It's a bit of "the enemy of good is perfect", or however that goes, but it's still worth taking into account.
