Which topics would you like to discuss with us in 2023?
In 2022 we received a lot of valuable input and got involved in some great discussions with you. Among the most popular topics in our debates were assisted suicide, the future of Swiss neutrality, and how we can reduce our energy consumption. You can find an overview of our ongoing and archived debates here.
Which topics would you like to discuss with us next year? What feedback can you give us on our “debate” format? Let us know in the comments below!
In my understanding this means to educate children to think for themselves, to be critical and independent in order to build intelligent society. The opposite of sheep-like society.
Why is there more Pharma promotion and marketing than healthy habits?
Why is junk food is still produced and promoted, knowing that it causes death and chronic diseases?
On degrowth and the problem of lobbying within the PLR and the UDC in Switzerland
De la décroissance et du problème du lobbyisme au sein du PLR et de l'UDC en suisse
This is somewhat true. The great is the one whose mind has concluded that life is useless. Life is mortal. All of us will die as animals die rich or poor. Therefore, he does not involve himself in dialogues that lead to no result, but occupies himself with writing, drawing, or other things that the world will discover after his death and honor him as this veneration will not benefit him.
هذا صحيح بعض الشيء. فالعظيم هو ذاك الذي استنتج عقله أن لا فائدة فالحياة فانية، وكلنا سيموت كما تموت الحيوانات ثريا كان أم فقيرا، لذلك لا يزجّ نفسه في حوارات لا تؤدي الى نتيجة، لكنه يشغل نفسه بالكتابة أو بالرسم، أو بأشياء أخرى سيكتشفها العالم بعد موته فيبجله حيث لن يعود عليه هذا التبجيل بفائدة.
I would be fascinated if you would talk about the war in Yemen and the illegal trade in small arms in Africa. Because I would like to know what Switzerland thinks or does about this extremely dangerous situation.
Me fascinaría que hablaran de la guerra en Yemen y el comercio ilegal de pequeñas armas en África. Porque me gustaría saber qué opina o hace Suiza ante esta situación de sumo peligro.
It is always said that Switzerland is rich!
I know people who have to get by despite working less than the minimum wage.
Es heisst immer die reiche Schweiz!

I think it is urgent that we have a discussion about world peace. I would like to rethink what neutrality means.

Great topics. We have a debate about Swiss neutrality - we'd love to hear your input there! [url]https://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/what-is-the-future-for-neutrality-/47411934[/url]
I suggest we discuss the idea of building green cities in Switzerland with electric transportation, no alcohol, no smoke, and no pets.
Предлагаю обсудить идею строительства в Швейцарии зеленых городов с электротранспортом, без алкоголя, без табачного дыма и домашних животных.
Without pets? Why?
Ohne Haustiere? Warum?
Now that concerns that the Covid 'vaccines' are causing heart problems have finally made it into the mainstream. UK media (see Telegraph article : "Critics claim Covid jabs are causing heart problems – do they have any proof? ") are the people of Switzerland finally going to be allowed to have a debate on whether the government acted in their best interests by pushing the so-called 'vaccines' on to the public (vaxx passports / mandates etc,.) and the scientific basis on which this was done?
Was the mainstream media complicit in silencing those with valid concerns under the guise of "disinformation" and, if so, what steps will be taken in future to ensure it remains free and independent of government influence?
Hi HARLEQUIN-LAGGINHORN, thank you for your input.
The effectiveness of the Covid vaccines was scientifically proven. That said, looking at comments and feedback, there are many open questions and concerns regarding this topic and specifically around how a person's vaccination status has played a significant role in everyday life.
I'll pass on your input to our editorial team. Kind regards
The phrase "Swiss residents are allowed to hold debates" is shocking to me. So there was a ban before that? I must have missed something. Was this ban approved in a federal referendum?
Фраза " Жителям Швейцарии позволено провести дебаты" меня шокирует. Значит до этого действовал запрет? Я что-то упустил,видимо. Этот запрет был одобрен на федеральном референдуме?
I definately agree with the effectiveness scientifically proven regarding the Covid-19 vaccines and in particularly the mRNA ones!

How come we have record number of companies going bankrupt or closing but somehow the unemployment level does not change? Did anyone look closer to the data? In my opinion it is because people who loose jobs are not swiss and are too afraid to apply for unemployment.

How about NO CENSORSHIP? a Swiss newspaper... WITH CENSORSHIP! The voice of the people DOES NOT SPEAK HERE.
¿Qué tal que NO haya CENSURA? un periódico suizo... ¡CON CENSURA! La voz del pueblo NO HABLA AQUÍ.
How about a bit more diversity in subjects? Change of news items a bit more often?
Hi VERAGOTTLIEB, thank you for your input. We don't want to change the subjects too often to give a debate enough time to have the chance to turn into a good discussion.
But we can definitely strive to start more discussions this year.
What frequency would you prefer?
And what kinds of subjects would you like to discuss in debates this year?
Kind regards and a happy new year!
So many of SwissInfo articles are in the dock for weeks on end and...most of articles do not provide for comments. I don't care what subjects are broached - I participate in those of interest to me. As the saying goes...variety is the spice of life. Thanks for replying and a good year to you too.
