Was away for a week visiting my parents. Don’t get to see them nearly enough, in no small part thanks to our lovely “European Values” meaning they have to jump through more hoops to come visit us in Ireland than they can manage at their age. You see, we don’t really see non-Europeans as human in Europe. They’re something less. A potential threat.
I may have an EU passport and pass for white but I never forget that. In fact, I think about it every time I miss my parents.

The amount of energy and thought that officialdom puts into designing rules that create a hostile environment for individuals - if only all that energy and thought instead went into designing radical climate crisis policies that could collectively improve all our lives.
