I think suburb in English can mean nearby cities, too. For example, Alexandria, Virginia is a suburb of Washington, DC.

Ukraine is not attacking civilian infrastructure, what you’re describing are war crimes. This is not what the debate over long range missiles is about.

Here is a recent video from William Spaniel about the debate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM0ZTEz7Bzc

19% interest rates is a crisis.

At the same time, you have many people on Lemmy that parrot Putin’s line that every pro-democracy protest in the world is just some plot by the CIA and should be suppressed.

As climate change ravages Europe, the cars will survive.

His coaching from his campaign is showing through. They desperately want him to be the law and order candidate, “weathering the storm from the militant left”, but he just can’t help but attack the left and encourage further violence. He will sabotage his own campaign and image if he starts encouraging violence here.

He’s implying that he thinks that someone should, but even the literal point he’s making is not true.

Ignoring tactical voting doesn’t work

This is not a drill!

I mean even before the war ends, 19% interest is not stable. Capital investment has fallen to a third of what it once was. (ignoring forced investments needed to workaround sanctions) The Russians will also run out of old Soviet stockpile weapons which will be a major hit to their GDP as Russia starts to go into recession.

This is worse than you think. Most countries don’t criminalize use, only possession. Criminalizing use like Sweden does likely means that even having cannabis in your system is illegal and could lead to fines, criminal record, and jail time. It’s insanely backwards.

Seems like a predjudice thing to me, like a slur for farmer.

Well I do, and I refuse to vote for politicians that support dictators. If everybody thinks like that, then even the most self-serving, jingoistic politicians have an interest in protecting human rights.

It would be great to have closer ties to Asia. The concern is the imperialist claims to Taiwan and the whole Xi dictatorship thing. We have already learned what trading with an imperialist dictator does to Europe after Putin. Just blindly jumping into a closer relationship with Xi without a carrot and stick and without building closer cultural ties to the Chinese, Tibetan, and Uighur people, will only backfire for Europe.

It’s not a cold war, a trade war, or any sort of economic competition thing, it’s just concern over the volatility and human rights issues of dictatorships.

As an aside, Sanchez is missing the fact that the EV tarriffs were implemented in response to excessive state aid by the PRC. It’s not good for him to promise to drop the tarriffs without committing to more negotiation regarding the EU’s concerns about state aid.

pretty sure Republicans care about counterpoints if their counterpoint to “Republicans are shutting down the govt” is “them illegals!”. The correct reply is “your kids!”

That’s the counterpoint. The data shows that it was already illegal for “illegals” to vote and there are no reported cases of it. However, there are hundreds of cases of republicans using this law to prevent (your) college students from voting. If you have a son or daughter away at college, do they have their birth certificate with them so they can register to vote?

The Republicans are trying to prevent college students from voting with this bill.
