• can you also go after the rich Arabs who have Filipino slaves in their mansions in Europe

    maybe. If the Filipinos are in Switzerland. If there is a assumption of breach of basic human rights we can also go after them if the Filipinos are not in switzerland.

    But we would first need proof or at least reasonable suspicion that something is happening so we can start a investigation and get a search warrant.

      Okay, but could maybe you just go after the rich? For boo other reason than being rich? Because, in my experience , rich people tend to suck and that seems reason enough to investigate. Please?

      Pls Switzerland?

      • pretty sure that would be a massive breach of the Rechtsstaat(law state? rule-based state? constitutional state?) and even basic human rights.

        So no. Selective application of Rights is a really bad idea. That’s how you get fascism.

          I think that rechtstaat/Rechtsstaat (both the German and Dutch variety of the word) are supposed to be translated into English as “rule of law”. But I could be wrong.
