5 month old account celebrating terrorism and the rule of violence. Lemmygrad must be leaking again.

Norway is a powerhouse by its own rights and its good that they can choose this path if that’s what suits their country best. It’s also good that the EU was setup to accommodate arrangements like this.

And pivot.

You understand you are still to coward to say what you mean, and you are now pointing towards a fringe militia group that when they ran for political power got 0 seats in Parlaiment in order to justify Russians carving swastikas into people.

Every country has extrimist groups diametrically opposed to the side you want to be on. So pointing at one of those to excuse whatever inhumane thing you want to find acceptable just again emphasises the type of person you are. You madam are a troll, I bid you farewell.

And they are part of the unified European market. So they have all the obligations of being an EU member without any of the voting rights. Plus they pay to be member as well.

Autonomy has its price I guess.

No, a very small subset of the Ukranian military was wearing them, being the Azov battalion and some other members of right wing extremist groups that where already paramilitary before the war.

Azov is former militia founded by a right wing nut job that did not even get enough votes in the last election to get any seats in Parliament.

Then Russia invaded, and these Azov folks turned out to be formidable fighters. Also martial law rolled up all military age men and women, so they where now formal military and beggers can’t be choosers. Similar to Wagner and Utkin.

Indicative of the horribly complicated history there.

Many Jews come to Israel from other parts of the world where they where a minority and mistreated. Now they are in a place where the Palestinians act towards jews as they are accustomed to, but Jews are no longer a weak minority and do t have to take it. So they don’t and thus vote for someone that doesn’t. (Not approving, just understandable).

It makes me sad that there does not seem to be an end to this spiral of hatred between Palestinians and Jews as this just keeps the blood flowing in the streets.

Good, part of the Union, mutual defense pacts… there is plenty of reasons to think this is a good step.

Well you are but you aren’t. You seem to be implying it and I was wondering if you had the guts to actually write it out. I guess not.

You are defending or sympathyzing with carving swastikas into people, that kind of shows what kind of a person you are.

Because “what you gonna do about it”.

But then, the gulf war was fought over Iraq getting control over Kuwaiti oil capacity and thus getting too much control.

Now with the gigantic oil fields found in south America, the US having the shale production up and running and Russia (opec+ not opec) being embargoed everything is becoming hard for some of the gulf states.

You mean the Ukranians are committing warcrimes?

87 percent of the troops committed at the start of the invasion. After the cluster fuck became apparent the Orcs did a partial mobilization of primarily the undesirables (ethic minorities) and they have been emptying out their prison systems Putin himself indicated that currently around 600k troops are involved in the conflict. If you do the math on all the numbers the Kremlin has been throwing out over the past year, the 300k Russian casualties that western analysts where reporting seems to be correct.

The highest commander of the Ukranian army has been open that he needs more troops and that the military needs to innovate as the old doctrines are no longer viable.

The Orcs just use penal battalions of people that cost their society money and instead of imprisonment they use them to soak up bullets and bombs for the regular troops. Preventing casualties under trained soldiers and getting rid of undesirables. The DPR and LPR serve a similar role.

Identify who? Ukranian POWs?

Wow… nice post. Thanks for your writeup.

You are horrible, I just spent the last half hour in a Rabbit Hole about star voting and other methods and will probably be reading more.

I don’t know who the random YouTuber is but indeed several large voting organizations seem to favor star (score then automatic runoff) over RCV. As modern systems make counting/processing the votes much easier.

Thanks for the links and info!

You da man!

Maybe remove the name of the gunman from your post. It is definately informative what you posted, but no need to give people like him any notoriety. His name is best forgotten.

Downvoting would mean that in a 2 party system one Team upvotes their guy and downvotes the other.

Ranked choice voting works better. I believe CGP grey has a cool YouTube series on the voting options. He explains it based on voting in animal kingdom.

Rofl… Fine we’ll make our own EU with blackjack and hookers.

In the Netherlands we also see a return of mandated dutch classes because universeties cannot cope with the influx of students and have no legal way to stop students from other EU countries. So they will limit the influx by switching part of the curriculum back to Dutch. This seems similar.
