The US invaded and occupied 2 countries on the pretext of terrorism and “weapons of mass destruction”.
Russia is seen as an invading force for attempting to protect Russian population in a country that borders its own.
If you’d asked me in 2012 if I supported dissolving NATO, I’d have called you crazy.
Ask me now…
As Ann Richards so succinctly put it: born on 3rd base, thought he hit a triple.
They could, but they won't.
Finland has a history of fascism.
Many countries worried about declining populations could just.. allow more immigrants. But most of them won't, at least not voluntarily.
I wish we could stop seeing memes about a fascist.
This could be a good thing. The monopoly Microsoft and the x86 architecture have had on computing has hampered new development for decades.
China is experimenting with different architectures and open source OS’s. It’ll be very interesting to see where this leads.
The vast majority of the population lives within 100 miles of the US border.
It's bloody cold up there.

They're neo-liberaling just as hard, if not harder than us. The only real difference is, some guy managed to get universal health care passed in the 50s, or they'd frankly be much worse off than they are now.

And slavery. Don't forget the slavery.

It isn’t that nuanced. The colonized, subjugated population is rising up rather than laying down to continue getting slaughtered.
Liberate Palestine.
It’s almost like those companies are headed by a spoiled rich white kid from South Africa who grew up with apartheid…
Not an ounce of sympathy. He’s an awful human and has done immeasurable harm.
Back when there were "mom and pop" AirBnb, maybe this was a bad thing. Now, a huge number of rentals are owned by companies with big portfolios specializing in short term rentals.
It's become a really big problem in certain cities.
I don't see this as a bad thing.
