Regarding Ukraine, there could be nothing further than truth https://youtu.be/7gxssycoxz0

As for Israel the problem is more that it isn’t a lapdog, it looks like US is Israel’s lapdog. As it looks like Israel does whatever it wants even if it is against US interests, and US still supports it.

Sure it wasn’t out of altruism. If Ukraine loses, more things will happen (remember, this didn’t start with Ukraine, we had Chechen, we had Georgians, we had Ukrainian Crimea and now Ukraine)

1. Ultimately we’ll have war in Europe which will force US to be involved (as mentioned Ukraine is not first and not last)
2. More likely invasion of Taiwan (if US couldn’t help Ukraine, how will they help Taiwan?)
3. We will get a nuclear proliferation, a bunch of other countries (Japan, South Korea, Poland, Germany and others) will be interested to obtain nukes, as that will be the only guarantee to not get invaded

I saw reports that it was an elderly customer but another report that it was an employee.

Ok so 124 victims of gun violence in Minnesota in 2023 without any context. It could be gang violence, shot by police, suicide etc. When you say somebody didn’t comment about someone else’s death you would know the victim name and some background story what happened.

He sent this tweet two hours after the incident. No one knew at the time what were the motivations behind it. All they knew at the time was that CEO of subsidary headquartered in Minnesota was shot (by accident or otherwise) and that was it. We later learned the rest.

What were the gun related deaths that weren’t tweeted about?

By all means I don’t feel sorry for this guy, I agree with the sentiment, but I don’t want politicians to be the ones asking to murder someone. I want them to regulate, so killing people this way is not possible.

Meanwhile the other party selects billionaires as cabinet members.

He and Kobluchar responded, because the guy was from their state, so they felt they should say something. The fact that they are attacked solely because they weren’t making death threats is mind blowing. Their job as politicians is to put regulations to thwart these practices, not kill people.

You can have your own opinion about the CEO, but you don’t want politicians resolve problems by killing people. We saw this in Germany in 30s and 40s.

Off topic, but where does this picture originates from?

That’s because people put resistance https://snyder.substack.com/p/dictators-for-a-day

Dictators will only succeed if people comply in advance.

Also a general strike started demanding him to step down.

Schizophrenia

Yes, but you should wait until you can hammer a nail with it.

It’s fucking in 2 ways.

One is to deport, which will cause labor shortages.

Second are the tariffs, will make imported food (and we import a lot of it from Mexico) more expensive.

It looks like the deportation will force us to import more and at higher prices due to tariffs.

And he supposedly won, because price of eggs was high last year due to flu.

Thanks, that explains it.

From people close the me, the ones that are MAGA/religious all were actually the most depraved ones when they were younger.

I don’t know if they think of they have to make it up for those years to still be able to get to heaven or something.

I’m Polish, I played it a while ago, and might be forgetting details, but I don’t remember those chants being in Polish.

What actually happened? I know nothing about it except the name. Why it is considered dead by others?

LOL I thought of Witcher too.

Is there a way to switch UI without switching the server. I do not like the web UI, I got used to old Reddit + RES.

What is “No need YT ads” and the “Ctrl+P”?

Isn’t Ghostery made by an ads company?

I agree what you wrote, but I have problem with this paragraph:

It doesn’t really matter to the US, we produce a ton of oil domestically and have been switching over our refineries to process it. Europe, China and India will be the ones to really feel the squeeze when Russian oil goes offline.

While it is true that US produces enough oil domestically to have enough for itself the price for oil is global.

US has option to of course close its exports and not be affected by it, but in the process it will lose its allies who will suffer even more by that (this sounds more like that trump would do, as it would piss off allies which we need and it could be sold internally as protecting Americans)

The other option would be to keep market open, but then the price hike would affect us but it would be smaller, because it would be shared among everyone.
