Cyberpunk is a great choice in my opinion, especially nowadays where most of the initial shortcomings are fixed and ironed out.

They could just use random names that conform to their beliefs.

That's an insane statement. Think about this in a legal context, wtf?

She's a feminist and animal rights activist, yes. She is also pretty islamophobic and racist, also noted on the wiki page.

I could imagine they would be bonding, yeah. The Afrikaners are probably also able to speak english, and then you have a bunch of white people wanting to live in a racist system with them as the ruling class and the only real difference being their dialect.

Remember that being white didn't include many races we consider white today, the most absurd example being the Irish who are on average even more white than the anglogermanic "original" ones.

When push comes to shove they are still white people and ideologically very similar and will band together against the liberal scourge

You sure you don't know why trump wants to take in the remnants of the apartheid regime's constituents?

South Africa used to be what american southerners dream of when they fly the confederate flag.

Why don't we split that shit up? Russia is so large and has so few people in comparison they might as well be a bunch of smaller states who can't threaten their neighbors like that.

Not taking in swathes of immigrants isn't the same thing as sending undesirables into gas chambers, surprisingly

Interesting, I hadn't thought of that.

Although I would argue that such "unrealized" profits would still count as being given overseas, since the money is not available to the european economy any more, no?

They just keep it parked in some kind of inflation proof financial construct until needed (at which point they *might* have to pay taxes on however much of it they need to withdraw, but still).

Well okay but where do the *profits* go? That's right, overseas

My Sparkasse is pushing WERO, which is supposedly a European PayPal substitute.

In the most technical sense of the word, all but die linke and *maaaybe* the greens are neoliberals. They make neoliberal policy in a capitalist system.

4m can certainly change a life, I'll give you that. But when you're already a powerful politician you will most certainly have a fantastic 6-7 digit income already anyway.

Yeah I'm always so stumped when someone taking bribes or other gifts is caught and they ruined their career for a five digit sum. I mean, what the fuck. At least have the dignity to sell yourself for a sum that actually changes your life

Fair point, although NATO without america would essentially be EU and friends. So it makes sense to build up that infrastructure locally.

The idea isn't really for everyone to give up their militaries, at least in the short to mid term, but to integrate that army with a central command. There are already various integrated divisions and battalions serving with other member's armies, iirc for example the dutch have attached a pioneer battalion to the german forces that essentially operates as one of theirs, pretty sure the Scandinavian countries have done similar things as well.
