This. By a spoon straight out of jar

What we could give from army stockpiles we gave 3 years ago, so maybe little less money for UA refugees, which is abhorrent but not a game changer. Ammo initiative is organized by CZ, but funded mostly by others and no one is going to cancel orders to Czech (or other) ammo factories 🤷‍♂️

He's not exactly pro-trump anything more than he just wants a photo of himself with current master of the oval office. Essentially just a money embezzling populist with no real political agenda of his own. Sucks for us, buf no big deal for the rest of the world.

Babiš is not right-wing. He is a populist EU-subsidies sucking agriculture tycoon with no opinion of his own. And also a former commie secret service agent.

And Americans love it. They don't even do some kind of mass protests, meaningful civil movement or, gods forbid, general strike. Even students rather spend their time scrolling algorithmically presented bullshit for cheap dopamine instead of organizing 🥰

the most important thing to remember when you see eugenicists who don’t believe that autistic people should exist rambling about “the autism epidemic” is not that they’re wrong about the “cause” (although they are absolutely wrong about it); it’s that they are eugenicists

Some people think you should give special pass to some thoughts or thought systems it they have idea of gods in them...

Yep that's him. He's also consistently pro-trump, from what i saw.

All of these three people are assholes I despise but keep beating that straw man

Secularism explained Equal treatment and freedom of belief for all.

This encapsulates it the best for the context of this discussion...

But the Wikipedia article is also guide good.

Lot of people in this thread seem to not distinguish between not being secular and being religious. Being religious is normal and perfectly ok, being secular means you are not imposing your religious beliefs on others. That is not ok and is a big part of why USA is in such a deep shit right now.

Theres a lot of Palestinian Christians and atheists, too! But I wasn't talking about religious people or Muslims or whatever else. I was talking about secularism, that is not imposing your personal religious beliefs on others. If somebody is doing that, he's a bad person

For me it's refreshing to kind of not have racists in my life or give them free pass for their racism just because the might be related to me.

People who are not secular are making the world worse by not being secular. That is by imposing their personal religious beliefs on the society as a whole. You can see this for example in the USA, if you look close enough.

I don't care. Issue is not being christian, atheist or whatever else one pleases. I talked about being secular which means you are not imposing your beliefs on others.

People of faith is not the same as not being secular aka imposing your religious beliefs on others.

Quite a diverse and big bunch of people

No you don't.its very humane and beneficial to society to hate Nazis, homophobes and others. These people don't believe in reason, you cannot talk them out of being etc. Nazi. But you, as a society, can make being a Nazi or homophobe too costly to be feasible for most people. That's ostracization

... And it ends up with people, who deserve the worst (homophobes, misogynists, racists, those who are not strictly secular and other assholes in general) not receiving enough hate just because they are related to someone. They deserve hate and ostracization, not free pass for their iliberal bs.

How? You simply tell them to fuck if they are homophobic, transphobic or aren't secular. It's easy and refreshing.

Also a system where the ultimate arbiters are lifetime appointees generated by deeply partisan system is not democratic by its very nature

And where were the rest of Americans? Paris. Athens, Kiyv or any of dozens more European capitals would literally burn if someone tried to do like 1% of what GOP is doing. You still don't have even a general strike.or some other peaceful coordinated action.

ICE attack a protestor in LA

Orwell hated the theatre of moral absolutes that let people excuse cruelty as duty.

“They are only doing their duty” was his warning about bureaucratised violence of the kind being carried about by ICE in the USA and often cheered on by Musk.

My granddad's cousin went to Spain in early '37 to fight the fascists and kept a diary of his experience. One entry read that he'd been shown how to clean his rifle by another, more experienced, Englishman by the name of Eric Blair. So yeah, I think we all know what Orwell would think.

If there was any meaning to this obsolete undemocratic and generally terrible concept of monarchy, it would be the king stepping up now and saying that all Nazis should jump of the Dover cliffs and then human rights respecting liberal democracy is the only way forward.

One would expect RO to call up article 5 and let NATO hunt the drones over the sea or even strike some launch infrastructure instead of letting RU violate their territory. But I'm from country that let Russia blow up ammo depot with some civs without any meaningful response, so whatever

Lol just say you happy the asshole got what he deserved

And why are the Americans ok with it? Why aren't the streets and town squares blocked by demonstrations and riot? Imagine what would happen in France, Greece, Ukraine or anywhere else in Europe if someone tried to impose this retarded inhumane system on people there.
