Yeah. What’s their game here, basically? They’re hella brutal in most (all?) other ways.

Has he actually given up on the Metaverse thing at this point?

Oh, the second paragraph of my comment, not the article. Kyiv Independent is questionable as a source, basically.

Sorry for calling you a bot.

Clearly, you can speak English quite well, just not understand it.

I actually can respond to this, for the real people reading. KMT isn’t pro-China, just more confrontation averse with them. These are the guys that fought Mao, right? And, they lost the last election handily to the radical anti-Chinese candidate. Not sure WTF is up with the claim about the president.

But, we were never talking about Taiwan, and definitely not about the Uighur genocide.

Lol. In 2025 your propaganda bot should be able to scan conversations better than this one.

For Lemmings from other areas, it doesn’t read like a warning, exactly, but in the context of what the Alberta government literally this minster has been doing it kind of is.

Edit: Didn’t notice this is signed Devin Dreeshen.

This government has blown up one Calgary transport plan already (they’re literally building two halves that don’t enter downtown at all now), so that may or may not be wise. Cities don’t really have constitutional protections in Canada or Alberta.

Without checking the context, Iran and their proxies got hit a bunch and turned the other cheek, so in the game theoretic sense, yes, none of their threats will be credible now.

The conventional smart move would have been to start gradually blowing Isreali and American stuff up the moment Hazbollah was attacked. It sounds they might actually have some kind of twisted, theocratic idealism that got in the way of that.

The second paragraph added some important context, if you skimmed over it.

Before that, they had to be more moderate to get by. It was terrible! /s

Maybe.

To be clear this is an outlet for pro-Ukrainian propaganda with stories that have quite often never been verified or repeated. I get it, they’re fighting a war for survival, but I still will take it with a grain of salt especially when it sounds unlikely.

When Canada retaliated to Trump’s “liberation day” tariffs, she basically threw us under the bus and said we should have more respect.

I think Jacobin is seeing what they want to here.

As usual with BRICS projects, I’ll believe it when it’s both functioning and of any significant size.

I feel like Russian support is pretty much a rounding error when it comes to Chinese power.

If this is true, the EU better be figuring out how to change that price calculus for them.

Which makes me doubt an open admission actually did happen, since China would understand the possibility for blowback.

I’m guessing strict gender rules about who does the washing up and a very zealous interpretation of ritual purity rules has something to do with the preference for disposables, as well.

Whether that falls under self-righteously lazy, I’ll leave as an exercise for the reader.

I mean, did Starlink allow it? They got caught.

I’d have no problem if someone did me, for the record. Seems only incrementally different from mental imagery or writing a fanfic.

At this point I’m clearly in a minority, though.

These are all Eastern European software developers, per the article.

Even before I saw that guy preach, I thought he was the creepiest-looking person ever. His sermons and lifestyle don’t help.
