[00:00] IsambardPrince Blowing up the EU and starting over without Hungary would be more desirable. [00:01] IsambardPrince They should start drafting new treaties to join a different organization (the EU with reforms basically), and agree that when all the other members agree to that treaty, the EU ceases to exist and the new treaty goes into effect. [00:01] MinceR too bad the EU members are too gutless to even do that [00:01] IsambardPrince They don't even have to change the Euro because Hungary isn't using it. [00:01] MinceR they could create an EU2 with better rules, the states that take this thing seriously could join that and leave the current EU [00:02] MinceR or what you said, yeah [00:02] MinceR though i suspect the gypsy king could veto the dissolution of the EU [00:02] IsambardPrince It neatly works around the "Can't expel Hungary." problem, because when the other members all agree to the new treaty, they keep using the Euro (or change to something that will be exchanged 1:1) and all withdraw from the EU at once. [00:02] IsambardPrince Leaving Hungary as the only member of the "EU". [00:03] IsambardPrince MinceR, That's the thing. [00:03] IsambardPrince He can veto the dissolution, but he can't stop everyone else from leaving and a replacement existing immediately. [00:03] IsambardPrince So Hungary would be the only member of the EU. [00:03] MinceR then i guess we're talking about the same thing [00:03] MinceR maybe slovakia would also be a member of the EU [00:04] IsambardPrince Yeah, it's a neat way of expeling him and taking away his veto. [00:04] IsambardPrince He can't veto members leaving at once and starting a new organization without him. [00:06] IsambardPrince MinceR, Maybe I thought of this so easily because I'm always used to dealing with my own government. [00:06] IsambardPrince "You can't do this." [00:06] IsambardPrince "Yeah, but I can do that, that, that, and then this." [00:14] *x-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)

During World Wars I and II, it was used to justify detentions and expulsions of German, Austro-Hungarian, Italian and Japanese immigrants. The law played a role in the infamous US policy of Japanese internment during World War II, according to the non-partisan law and policy institute." [01:35] IsambardPrince Removing Hungarians.

[01:39] IsambardPrince Having the other country revoke citizenship doesn't necessarily stop deportation.

[02:12] IsambardPrince They "falsely list the sale price of the vehicle, assuming that you will save gas money, and deduct it at a stated amount at a stated price from the list price of the vehicle, without compensating for the cost of charging the vehicle." and "They have also deducted federal tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act, that many consumers do not qualify for, or may not get the full amount from, and which the Trump Administration is [02:12] IsambardPrince attempting to repeal."

And how do you justify the hiring of more H1B via holders from India but not US based Americans. Isn't that discrimination ? How are these activities fostering an inclusive culture at IBM ? where is the equal opportunity for US employees ? Sounds like nothing more than the typical IBM Hypocrisy in practice.

His stated reason was "because the wife is pregnant". [21:14] IsambardPrince I said, "He doesn't fix it. He's gone as soon as they find him. Welcome to single motherhood." [21:15] IsambardPrince They got an order of final removal in absentia. [21:15] IsambardPrince He could always appeal, but they're very unlikely to entertain that. [21:16] IsambardPrince They're more likely to come pick him up and accuse him of being in tren de aragua like they're saying about everyone else from venezuela. [21:24] IsambardPrince Someone asked me which countries you could get into on a Mexican passport that a US passport would not work on: [21:24] IsambardPrince "I believe 185 countries allow US passports. 186 for UK. The additional one for UK is Belarus, which is on the State Department's travel advisory list under "Extreme Danger" for Americans, because it's a satellite state of Russia. [21:24] IsambardPrince You might get into Belarus on a Mexican passport. [21:24] IsambardPrince The US State Department forbids Americans from traveling to Cuba and North Korea. Cuba mostly, and North Korea for any reason that is not granted a waiver by the Secretary of State, personally. [21:24] IsambardPrince But if you go to North Korea, you could end up like Otto Warmbier. Accused of "stealing a propaganda poster" and sentenced to 15 years hard labor, and returned to the US in a vegetative state and died 3 days later. The NK regime is infamous for kidnapping Americans, they have a very harsh legal system, and other Americans have been kidnapped for having a bible in their possession which was deemed "Imperialist Propaganda". [21:24] IsambardPrince They also tend to accuse every American they run into of being spies, even if it's not true. Most Americans are not US spies and couldn't care less what the American government wants with regards to foreign relations. [21:24] IsambardPrince Most countries that don't accept a US passport are countries you would NEVER EVER want to go to, they're unstable, they're dangerous. [21:25] IsambardPrince What is more likely is you'd want to visit a country who is on bad terms with another country and not want them to see the visa stamp. [21:25] IsambardPrince Sometimes you can get around this by getting....a second US passport. You can explain that the countries you want to visit won't let you in if they see a stamp from the other country." [21:27] IsambardPrince Edit: Most countries that don't accept a US passport are countries you would NEVER EVER want to go to, they're unstable, they're dangerous. Sometimes the government has collapsed and wild bandits are roaming the streets, like Haiti. [21:28] MinceR nazi america is also dangerous [21:32] IsambardPrince Not quite that dangerous, yet. [21:32] IsambardPrince We voted today. [21:32] IsambardPrince Just the locals. [21:33] IsambardPrince It's a six way election with 8 or 9% turnout. [21:33] MinceR yeah, the ICE is only slightly likely to kill you for being a foreigner in nazi america [21:33] IsambardPrince So whoever becomes the next mayor could become the mayor with as little as 17% or so of the vote. [21:33] IsambardPrince And that would be less than 1.5% of the town. [21:34] MinceR more likely if you have the "wrong" skin color ● Mar 14 [22:00] IsambardPrince MinceR, Voting in the local elections does help. [22:01] IsambardPrince In jurisdictions that don't cooperate with ICE, ICE becomes 70% less effective. [22:01] IsambardPrince So by voting for local government that won't work with them, you take 70% of their capability away from them. [22:02] IsambardPrince I want them to get stripped of the local resources so they have to focus on the worst. ● Mar 14 [23:05] IsambardPrince MinceR, Trump wants to use a law passed by men in wigs, silk stockings, and makeup, to increase deportations.
