Let’s be real, it’s probably because Ukrainian became one of the most popular languages when the war started

I’d be abjectly shocked if NATO ever decided to host or transport Nukes via Finland, it’d be a blindingly stupid escelation for seemingly no good reason.

HA! TAKE THAT MAMAN FÚTBALL!

Weren’t those revolutions prompted by famines inducing mass starvation?

The theory probably revolves around there not being a transfer of the file as much as a copy paste of it.

Physical media can be copied but you need blank physical media to copy it to, in a purely digital eco system both the buyer and seller end up being able to have copies of the sold product, which effectively treats the seller as if they are a vendor of the product being sold.

Basically in a world built on copyright law, being able to buy and sell digital media the same as physical media looks a lot like someone scalping the original product to cut into the maker’s bottom line. Megacorps eating it is pretty dope but it significantly diminishes an individual developer’s ability to profit off their own work as well, especially when software development already encourages so much copy pasting to make software that should be working into software that is working.

I’m pretty sure Hungary said they were only still doing it because Turkey still was

That would mean criticizing Lebensraum is anti german racism.

“They just want their historical homeland!”

“Why won’t those poles just stop attacking germany if they want peace so badly‽”

The flying spaghetti monster of course!

As much as I agree, Chomsky is no trustworthy source on what is or isn’t a genocide

The man has bent himself in so many knots denying what happened in the yugoslav wars that I’m pretty sure Bosnia would actively refuse to prosecute if someone shot the bastard in broad daylight in the middle of Sarajevo.

The only reason Gaza isn’t being called a concentration camp with a theoretical government at this point is because the west largely aren’t aware that Israel subjects holocaust survivor families to abject poverty and being called Soap People.

They were literally caught stealing the reparation payments intended for the victims and their families, so much so that a NGO is now the responsible party for distributing the remaining survivor payments.

They openly cooperate with neo nazi and neo nazi associated movements in the west because the more hostile westerners are to jews the more settlers they can claim need to he housed by evicting and killing Palestinians.

These guys sure are doing a fucking lot of nazi shit for how offensive everyone seems to think pointing out they’re doing stuff the Nazis did is.

“Free speech is when you’re not allowed to say mean things about Bibi, it hurts his feelings!”

I feel like every time I look back over my shoulder at Germany the AfD has achieved some new level of Mask Off

It’s like the institutional-racism-supporter version of shooting your load before the other one’s even finished getting their pants off, like bro you’re still in an official quarantine by literally all the other parties, like they’re not even considered for grand coalition.

Surprised Gab isn’t the record holder, it was the big deal example the fediverse advocates held up as how awesome the fediverse is at moderating itself, especially the “defed if federated with” rule instances started using to actually quarantine the users from Gab

You just infected us all by turning racism into “I just lost the game.”

Because otherwise you run into the problem of having to get additional revenue from somewhere else.

The current problem is that there aren’t enough young people working well paying enough jobs to fund pensions, because if they aren’t funding them it’s just an account you throw money into and then draw out of later.

You can either provide an alternative source of additional funds or tell grandma it’s not your fault she put her money into a box instead of an investment vehicle to fund her retirement.

Well then it’s basically losing money against inflation

I think a better solution would be to fund pensions out of a sovereign wealth fund that’s not necessarily tied to youth productivity.

Stops youngins from feeling like they’re living in a geroncleptocracy, while also not tossing grandma out to live in the underpass

It doesn’t necessarily stem from an anti-american thing, it just so happens that a lot of anti-americans just so happen to have picked up that particular linguistic quirk.

Their flair for supporting LatAm anti-american groups has caused them to pick up the LatAm chip on the shoulder that nobody else uses “America” to refer to the whole of North and South America like they do, and instead use it to specifically denote the US.
