So the top exports are: medicines and medicines. Got it

They are not equivalent situations. More like:

Person A promises to kill 10 people. Person B promises to kill 20 people.

Only one of them will do it, and you choose who. If you refuse to choose, person B will do it. What do you do?

My comment only mentions me and all women. How exactly am I giving cover to men that rape? I raped nobody. The question I’m asking is what I’ve done wrong.

I don’t know what trump and racism has anything to do with this.

So how exactly am I complicit for some dude raping someone? Just because I have a penis? And are all women completely exempt or are all women also complicit?

So they should conquer the entirety of Asia in one turn, to get an extra 7 units per turn in order to afford their war with Europe?

I was totally ready for “green energy is good graphics and oil is good mechanics”. But then the comment ended. I’m so lost

Fold it twice, still free

I poo almost daily at work. It’s almost impossible to hold it in for 8:30 continuous hours.

If someone tells me off for it, they will find out how much my productivity drops when I have to focus on holding the shit instead of doing my work.

Poo in work. Not only is it a nice break, but it also is more productive than not pooing. Win-win for everyone.

Of course younger generations are more likely to believe in pseudo science, they haven’t yet learned that they are bullshit. Once they get older and have more experience with detecting bullshit, it’s popularity should decline.

Vscode too

Do you want north Korea itself to report these news? Of course reporting them is those that are interested in reporting these news.

It doesn’t mean that the news are real, but it doesn’t mean that they’re fake either.

Yeah because Winnie the Pooh is an American propaganda machine. Show me a quote of xi jumping saying that it is because he doesn’t like being compared to a cartoon bear!

(I’m cosplaying as a lemmy.ml)

Ah yes. Surely if you give Russia the land it wants, it will never again invade. Surely. Just like they agreed to never invade Ukraine if they gave up their nukes.

Pro tip: if Russia invades your country, just give them your land! That way noone will die! Except those that died at the start of the invasion. And those that will die in the next invasion when Russia wants more free land.

I have looked across the whole thread and see no justification of death in flying squid’s comments.

But since you mentioned it, I don’t understand your reasoning of “sending weapons to Ukraine results in spilling Ukrainian and Russian blood”. Ukraine is defending itself from a Russian invasion. The only one capable of stopping the war is Russia. It’s how invasions work. There is an invader and an invaded. The invaded has no choice but to defend themselves. The invader has 2 choices: keep invading ir stop invading.

Sending weapons to Ukraine means Ukraine is able to defend itself, signaling to Russia that they can’t invade other countries for free, which means Russia will be less capable to invade other countries. Which in turn means less blood spilled overall.

If you want the least amount of blood spilled, you should be advocating to send weapons to Ukraine.

I don’t understand. Who here is justifying death in Ukraine? I thought this post was about Russian penal colonies (in Russia, not Ukraine).

Amazon for me is just a search engine. A shit one at that, because the actual search function sucks. I have to search for a product related to what I want and then keep clicking on “products you might want”. And after finding what I want just go to the manufacturer’s website and buy it for 10€ less.

The US lifted sanctions in exchange of Venezuela having fair elections. That was the deal.

Then why would the US be as interested in the fairness of the election.

The fairness of the venezuelan one was literally a condition of the deal.

Ocamm’s razor.

If they didn’t want to lift sanctions, they would just not lift them. If they did lift them, it’s because the US actually wanted fair elections. There’s not more to it.

Lots of Americans say they preferred trump to any other president. I don’t know what point you’re trying to make.
