Of course. There’s no need to place your trust in free press when you can just follow whatever you want! We all know authoritarians have the most accurate journalism.

Pakis might not be the best word to use

If I’m reading this correctly, it seems to suggest that Gérald has organised the trials mostly because the defendants are strongly left-wing. Given how much more of a threat fascists are throughout Europe- why? What is the point of creating trials against the groups that aren’t responsible?

This comment looks so scuffed on Lemmy

Pope Francis honestly seems like a well-intentioned fellow, and the anger he causes among the more extreme catholics is delightful.

It’s not as if religions have been peaceful in all that time, is it

Of course, crime is higher in a more unequal, less stable country. And guns are not the only means of committing crime. But the difference that guns make is noticeable when comparing to countries that share a similar HDI, that are stable and have lower reason to commit crime. That’s why I mentioned Britain earlier, as it’s one of the more similar countries to the US. I do concede that whilst gun deaths are higher in America relative to Western Europe, perchance a large proportion of the difference (but certainly not all) can be attributed to the more aggressive culture.

I get what you’re saying, but it doesn’t feel right to compare the US to places like Brazil over European countries. Given their vast wealth and semi-democratic institutions, there’s a lot more capability to change these kinds of things than in poorer and more corrupt countries. Also, no to comparing US states to countries. We don’t do that for any other country. Probably best to compare the states to Britain, given that they are the America of Europe.

It’s great that New Zealand is so dedicated to protecting their lovely birds, if only every country was like that.

More so unchecked authoritarianism in this case, one would hope that even in places like the US they wouldn’t just bulldoze cultural sites for ‘progress’. Keep in mind that this Egyptian fellow recently built the world’s tallest flagpole, and if you look at the list of record heights there’s a bit of a pattern

Estonia I believe

The level of ignorance around any nuclear related incident is astounding

lemm.ee best instance 100%

Taliban are cunts tbh

Remember Nauka?

Wouldn’t the Good Friday Agreement stop this from happening? The ECHR is incorporated into the law of Northern Ireland. I do hope they don’t muck it up again

What do you mean by “far right for Western Europe”. We had Hitler and Mussolini.

What’s that?

The counteroffensive has been dismissed as a failure by the pro-RUs for the last month so nothing new
