So, the war in Ukraine is a proxy war between North Korea and USA?

A lot looks like we and champignons share a common ancestor that had already separated from plants. But, it’s not sure.

No unclarity regarding that, don’t worry :)

What is this the decisive factor you’re talking about? You can have several.

Good luck finding a presidential candidate with good policies in USA.

Uh… If the misogyny was enough to remove enough votes from them to allow the worse candidate to win, then obviously it was a decisive factor. Being a decisive factor does not equal being the only factor.

You’re not supposed to question the victory of a presidential election when done in free and democratic elections. Doing anything like that would be horribly anti-democratic.

It would be horrible if Harris had challenged Trump’s victory. That would just make her another Causescu/Trump/Mussolini.

Were there other problems in Clinton and Harris than the gender, then? (Except them “lying” that Trump would use the army against US civilians, of course)

Breaking anti-bribery laws of a country is illegal, no matter whether they are enforced in some other country or not. Of course Microsoft can break the law and then keep paying large fines until they decide to no longer break the law.

I think this post would do good having a small text telling what it’s point is. It is apparently here to tell that its map shows Crimea as part of the Russia?

They are the locals. They are indigenous New Zealanders and they are doing something that is customary in their culture in the kind of situation they were in during that session.

The New Zealand lawmakers were trying to pass a bill that would have severely reduced the rights of the locals, and this reaction is part of how the local culture demands people to act.

True that. And I understand it was impolite of me to not correct this.

I would still like to remind that the claim “he has Parkinson’s” is not by me. What is known is that he has tremors, and people jump the gun and assume that’s Parkinson’s. No, it is not necessarily Parkinson’s.

It can also be just some other – strong – drugs having tremor as a side effect. And then what those medications might be (partially?) healing is more relevant than whether one can live long with Parkinson’s or not.

I added a bit of text to my comment above, so that people won’t be misled. Thank you for the correction!

Okay, true, technically not Parkinsons. But medicines can cause symptoms that are the same as those of the most visible symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Hands shaking, difficulty in walking, mind not working completely. No idea of the pharmacology behind it. All I know that I’ve seen it happen.

But many kinds of medicine can induce symptoms that look like Parkinson’s. And there’s no real indicator that Putin’s tremor is caused specifically by Parkinson’s disease.

Most importantly, it takes rewriting their school books… The Russian school books on mathematics and on Russian language rant about Russian supremacy.

Not me. Probably nobody? 🤷

😇🤠

It’s not nice having to wish for anyone’s death. Goes against the human nature.

But something not feeling nice tells nothing about whether something is okay or not. Sometimes you need to do things that are not nice.

Have you never heard of bolševiks and menševiks? What you’re explaining is what menševiks wanted, but what happened was what bolševiks aimed for.

And that was inhumane horror.

Well… There was this thing called Soviet Union. They decided to try to speed up the transition to communism by using repression and violence. And ended up being a totalitarian state, a direct opposite of what a communist state is supposed to be like.

Of course you can argue that Soviet Union was not communist, it was just a state that had chosen to call itself communist for propaganda reasons… But still, Soviet Union is an example of a communist country that was unsuccessful as a communist project already by itself. Then came outsiders and helped make it even worse, but bad doesn’t become good by some people wanting it to be even worse. Burma is another example. I’d say they hacked away their own leg before anyone else, such as CIA, had time to interfere in their business.
