Check the civilian casualties in Iraq war and report back

“Did king Arthur come a lot?”

I didn’t know Hitler was from the land down under

Being not familiar with Mexican culture, I thought the joke was about the fifith of whisky

There are many people who think the Soviet Union did just the same (ask the Baltics). This is all about picking sides again, not looking at the root of the problem. If you believe US propaganda, China is much worse than the US, with facts to prove (not saying they’re correct or justified). Saying stuff like “your nation is the plague of the world” is just repeating the same fascist logic

Now, this is just silly. I’d think the US have capability to destroy a school in one strike if they wanted to. What you’re saying is the US specifically have to strike twice, because they don’t have a means to reduce a civilian building to rubble. And what’s the point, anyway? Now with all the whiplash, they couldn’t predict this beforehand? Or, if it was intentional, they would have a specific goal in mind?

I’m as much outraged as you are, don’t get me wrong. I just think it was a terrible mistake on the US part on par with starting this conflict all together

As much as I appreciate this community, I wish there was more thoughtful discussion than this. As much as I agree with you, I’d hope there was a follow up with a deeper look at the problem. The US are doing this not because of an innate evilness, but because they can. They have the money and the mass media coverage to justify their deeds. Every country (or every leader) is protecting their interests in the way they see fit. If Iran was a superpower (whose leader thought they were invincible), they would do the same.

But they told me I could be anything

You also mentioned Finland and hinted that it’s culturally very different to Russia. You also said Finland is close to Norway and Russia has nothing in common with Norway. I’m discussing the general idea you expressed, even if not a direct quote from you, I hope you can understand

I’ve been to Finland and I never felt alien there. Of course, it’s a bit different, but “nothing in common” is a bit of an overstretch to me

It’s an expat thing. People moving from their country usually have more negative connotations about it and are more likely fo justify their choice by joining the negative propaganda. I’ve seen people moving to my country praise things that they thought were great and different from their previous experience, but having lived here all my life I know it’s not that simple. So, don’t believe everything an expat is telling you, that’s what I mean

I know it’s a running gag on the internet but I unironically think there’s someone who actually does this

I had an HP laptop at work where the keyboard went haywire. I saw a replacement keyboard online and thought “hey, why not, I’ll just replace it”. I didn’t even look up any videos or anything because I’d never think there would be a problem. So after needing to disassemble everything to get to the front plate, I was very happy to find out that the keyboard is riveted to it (about 20 or so rivets). I looked up a video and they suggested drilling out every rivet and then replacing them. I had never been so frustrated with a piece of technology before. Luckily, a can of contact cleaner solved the problem

Taliban: banning musical instruments

I remember Reddit celebrating Milei as “the new face of democracy and freedom” in Europe

There’s already been a trend of moving all the government chats (schools, hospitals, etc) to MAX. So, many people who need access to these services (especially parents of school children) have it already installed. So now blocking telegram isn’t seen as much of an issue for the majority of people. So I guess the government has already won the battle, which is a shame

Orthodoxy is part of christianity. It’s the same belief, just in a different wrapper
