“The bourgeoisie are a social class of business owners, merchants and wealthy people, in general, which emerged in the Late Middle Ages, originally as a “middle class” between the peasantry and aristocracy. They are traditionally contrasted with the proletariat by their wealth, political power, and education, as well as their access to and control of cultural, social, and financial capital.” - from Wikipedia

This is not the Musks, Thiels and Trumps of the world. This is better off, educated people, including the so-called liberal elites, including business owners and traders, including some pretty rich people… but universes apart from the obscene and unimaginable wealth of the real enemy.

It suits these people very well that most people cannot really fathom the difference between owning one million and one billion and one trillion dollars.

What is the difference between a millionaire, a billionaire and a trillionaire?

The bourgeois are not the enemy – it’s the hyper capitalists that set the working classes against the middle classes while draining all value and wealth out of society.

Germany isn’t single payer. It has a complicated dual system with public and private insurance allowing the highest earners and civil servants to go private, i.e. outside the solidarity system which causes the whole structure to collapse.

“The ruthless exposure of the private lives of public figures drives far too much talent away from government service.” – someone is very sore about the Epstein reveals.

I’m sorry. That really sucks. I hope you can move out soon and to a place that you can keep clean and safe.

I know your question was about germs and you got plenty of feedback already. For what it’s worth I agree with the tenor that you are right to be bothered.

However, am far more concerned by the water leak. It looks like you have hoisted wooden ceilings. You need to get the leak fixed ASAP and have someone check the joists are still ok. Water damage like this can rot the wood and a full bathtub can be heavy enough to break through the ceiling. This almost happened in my parents house.

Thanks. Done.

The children were five and seven years old. The seven year old was a blind special needs child. The surviving two children, the oldest of which is eleven, had to watch their parents and brothers get murdered before being pulled out of the car and beaten and taunted by the attackers. They also prevented ambulances from reaching the scene.

Can this please be the final straw at last? How can any country continue to stand by and support this racist regime.

Not quite the answer to your question but did you consider installing e/os/ instead of graphene? I recently switched to e and it has a good tracker blocker built in and you can use it completely without any Google account. If you want apps that only work with Google you can use the preinstalled microG service to minimise your exposure. It also has a very friendly and helpful community.
