They arent protesting the tourists, but the industry. There is a lot of things wrong with the tourism industry, but a big is them buying up houses to rent out to tourists, which increases the value of houses. Youre comment is like telling many people live in houses after a protest against abusive landlords.

The EU really needs to make a decision: act like you’re the good guys while fooling no one because you are buying weapons from the bad guys or actually be the good guys and not fund genocide.

Whats the part next to bangladesh called and why is there no electrified rail there??

It’s a representation

Yet to date, there has been no explanation as to who is responsible for spying on these journalists. The attacks occurred in early 2025.

AP mentions the Italian government might be behind it, they don’t offer any proof but can’t imagine they’d make such aligation without reason.

ROME (AP) — Spyware from a U.S.-backed Israeli company was used to target the phones of at least three prominent journalists in Europe, two of whom are editors at an investigative news site in Italy, according to digital researchers at Citizen Lab, citing new forensic evidence of the attacks.

The findings come amid a growing questions about what role the government of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni may have played in spying on journalists and civil society activists critical of her leadership, and raised new concerns about the potential for abuse of commercial spyware, even in democratic countries.

In the republics of Sakha and Dagestan, sewage systems are absent from as many as 41% of all school buildings; in Tyva, that is true for more than half of all schools.

A good reminder of how little Russian rulers care about the dirt poor people in their ‘colonies’.

Well nato soldiers do a lot of shit, sometimes with permission of or even ordered by their superiors, there are numerous war crimes that have not been put to justice. But that doesn’t mean that it would be willing to bomb civilians as a means when it comes to a war against russia. Nato and putin adhere to very different principles, not just moral ones.

Similar is scope, but a lot more voluntary though

Maybe next time read the article instead of just looking at a image.

Police are investigating the damaging of property in Ballymena as racially-motivated hate crimes.

He might not be dumb, but he has been badly informed before. We can’t know what he thinks is true and what he thinks is not. But i agree it would be a dumb move if he went on waging war somewhere else too.

We also shouldn’t forget Russian command will be willing to do things Nato won’t, like bombing civilians or forcing people to join the army. They might for example threaten to execute a pow or retaliate by using chemical weapons. If two parties are not fighting by the same rules, it won’t be all about who has the biggest military power. I think you’re right on their losses not being sustainable, although I think they’ll be more likely to choose more desperate measures than they’d consider retreating.

You don’t need 100% of the population, just the people in power to make a decision and some people enforcing that. Even if 75% of Germans wouldn’t want to fight, you just need the one in charge to give orders to the next in line and it will travel all the way down the chain of command. No way there will be mass desertion because Russia attacked Nato somewhere.

2024 was a very different time it seems

I realised I had a lot of the recommended stuff laying around already, except for bottled water. I usually only drink tap water, but I feel a lot more prepared now I got some.

Netanyahu fits that list no doubt

I agree, but their journey has been a lot more influential than your average protest (we need both).

In real life i try to give people the benefit of the doubt, try to stand up for the underdog, give people second chances etc but in my life i’ve come to see that, unlike in real life, there are actors who want to come across like regular people but are not really a regular guy with just another opinion. I have no clue about this user in particular, but i tend to be extra sceptical when it’s about a controversial topic - especially if a country, community or company involved who has in other cases hired people to influence opinions via social media. Isreal is one of those, so something like them never responding is more sus than when it’s some unimportant topic. Still think it’s good to be a positive person, but you might lend someone a hand you wouldn’t if you knew their true intention (though again, i dont know what this guys intention is).

Maybe with an all-star cast lol jk
