Trump can shove a stick up his backside. When your country is being turned into an active warzone by the army of a dictator, I sincerely doubt elections are the thing on peoples' minds. They want a competent and compassionate leader, and Zelensky is clearly that, no matter Trump's insidious seeding of doubt.
There was a time when a newspaper, especially one that was a local monopoly, might have seen it as a service to bring to the reader’s doorstep every morning a broad-based opinion section that sought to cover all views.
That's exactly what a journalistic organisation is meant to do Jeff, especially now when the world is increasingly being filled with mouthpieces that regurgitate what their owners want them to.
An organisation that puts out only one opinion, or is only allowed to put out one opinion, is nothing more than a mouthpiece.
Its a shame to see the Post becoming just another mouthpiece.
I wouldn't say it's just more important, I'd say it's a moral imperative to support Ukraine's fight for it's sovereign land over keeping buddy-buddy with a government running rampant with corruption and Russian puppetry
Terrorism, according to the United Nations General Assembly:
Criminal acts intended or calculated to provoke a state of terror in the general public, a group of persons or particular persons for political purposes are in any circumstance unjustifiable, whatever the considerations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial, ethnic, religious or any other nature that may be invoked to justify them.
Luigi certainly didn't bring the public into a state of terror, if anything quite the opposite - so I suppose the real question is do we class Health Insurance Executives politically as a group of people to incite terror onto?
I'd argue that a group of people who would happily sign away someone's life if it meant them getting richer don't deserve that kind of recognition, but I'd bet the courts will say yes because their rich friends want an example made of him.
It's the tried and tested Elon Musk method of performance evaluation. Fire all the workers, then be shocked when they don't want their old job back for a lower wage and worse contract terms
Well done to DOGE for absolutely tearing up the place scrounging up the US Government's metaphorical pennies, whilst ignoring actual budget inefficiencies, such as the infamously overzealous military budget
Well the simple answer is that doing that is the easiest way to divide the masses and turn them against one another, thus allowing the rich to maintain control and do what they want
This whole screenshot is basically one state's propaganda machine vs. another.
Just because the Chinese propaganda machine is acting the straight man in this particular interaction, doesn't mean they don't have skeletons in their own closet
In all fairness, the concept of owning things isn't unique to capitalism - it's Personal property vs. "Private" property.
Whether it's money or bartering, the things you bought you own via your own hard work, and that's your personal property.
Private property shouldn't be a thing. A corporation shouldn't own anything - there should always be a person on that contract that can be held to account.
If you want to profit from your enterprise, you should be prepared to go down with it.
Working in a field were I have to perform a lot of these types of tests, you'd be surprised how many look like Covid tests at a glance - always look at the labelling.
Also, in this form factor you'd pee into a container and pipette a very small amount into the test using the (usually) accompanying tiny pipette.
For her part, the chancellor told BBC News that she thought “sustainable aviation and economic growth go hand in hand"
As said in the article, the technology to reasonably decarbonise planes doesn't really exist yet - so the only path to "sustainable aviation" is to reduce it to the point it can be properly offset by other decarbonisation efforts.
That makes these two concepts almost entirely mutually exclusive without proper planning, and just slapping multiple airport expansions down then saying "It's fine, we'll plant a few trees at some point" doesn't fucking cut it.
Well to be fair, over a decade of Tories gutting public infrastructure to give out tax cuts for the rich will do that.
Will the population remember that, or just start blaming Starmer for not fixing everything inside of a year, who knows ¯(ツ)_/¯
On one hand, its nice that they actually responded, because even that can't be taken for granted nowadays.
On the other hand, they spent more text on telling you they're holding onto your data (and trying to milk you for more) than they did telling you the thing the email was about!!
While I absolutely agree with the sentiment here, I doubt it'd convince anyone remotely "pro-life" - because one's "just a chicken", and the other's human.
I mean Christ, if you can't get them to sympathise with the life carrying the fetus, you're not gonna succeed with a random chicken's.
I'd say I'm tech conservative/cynic with a bit of normie - as I've long accepted that forgoing big tech completely means losing the ability to talk to most of my friends and relatives (because there's zilch chance of me convincing them to move away)
Why do so many people only learn their lessons after it's already too late?
If we hadn't done Brexit in the first place, we wouldn't have to be dealing with this mess.
If the right-wing is good at one thing, its distraction. All this stuff about the Gulf of Mexico, Canada, and Greenland is just plain noise designed to detract from Trump fucking around with Trans right, pulling out of the Paris Agreement (again), and all the other insidious bullshit he and his cronies are working away at
Yeah... The petition directly goes against the government's manifesto, so I seriously doubt this'll do very much
