I suspect many wanted a kleptocracy but hoped to share in the plunder.

He’s a fascist painted with a faded red star, but even the Nazi flag used a bit of red. For the well informed, it’s actually a classic.

It has been approved, it seems that democracy is dead in the EU.

Because they’re trying to suppress the public reaction.

You won’t hear about this on prime-time TV news, and it’s even censored on some more popular parts of the internet, like Reddit.

The primary purpose of AI systems is mass surveillance.

In a Christian state, kissing in public is also prohibited. People in the West have forgotten this because, here, countries are secular, even though Christianity is the dominant religion.

For example, in my country, Portugal, before the Carnation Revolution of April 25, 1974, which introduced secularism, kissing in public or even holding hands was prohibited. The penalty could range from a simple fine to imprisonment. There was even a crime of “vadiagem” if you were caught in public, say, in a park, doing nothing during standard weekly working hours.

The previous regime in Portugal, the Salazarist Estado Novo, is generally described by historians as a quasi-fascist, Christian-Nationalist regime.

Even North Korea doesn’t need to be that extreme, and they are currently the most mono-ethnic country on Earth. These guys just want to be cruel, the rest is just an excuse.

And then they are surprised to be called controlled opposition.

Do not plant eucalyptus either.

Yes. I’m much more interested in the new The Witcher 3 DLC than in this, for example.

The liberal democracy is dead.

The Ineffectives give Maniacs the chance to stay in power and persist in their madness. I want neither.

We can start with the abolition of the stupid first-past-the-post system.

What are you talking about? They’re great at their job, they’re great at being the controlled opposition of the Epstein class.

I also heard that Christopher Columbus tried to secure funding for his expedition, aiming to reach India without sailing around Africa, from the Portuguese Crown before approaching the Spanish one, but he did not obtain the funding.

Some take this as possible evidence that the Portuguese were already aware of a potential territory to the West that would block or complicate the voyage to India via that route.

It’s port-port actually. One in latin, the other in celtic.

This was never about protecting the children. That’s just an excuse to further promote mass surveillance and to exempt companies from responsibility for the additive design of their products and services. It’s easier and more rewarding to penalize the users.

The game rules were written using the long scale, so the guy is actually becoming the first billionaire.

Hegseth is a wicked and despicable drunkard, but let’s be honest, Mormons were never Christians, and if people started to consider them as such, they might as well consider Muslims and Jews as Christians too. I am more surprised that Jehovah’s Witnesses are considered Christians on that list.

Yes, but on average what is the minimum percentage of support needed for an authoritarian regime to remain in power? 30%, 20%, 10%, 5%? Currently, less than 30% of Americans seem to support MAGA. Will that be enough to break this tyrannical trend?

She’s a grifter. If “Trump and Co.” were to give her another opportunity at MAGA today, she would gladly accept it without hesitation.

There was no change of heart in MTG, the boss fired her.
