I don’t have an answer but I have wondered the same. Serbia, Georgia and Türkiye have currently some very large pro-democracy demonstrations, but the USA hasn’t. What there is seems to be pretty small scale.

Maybe pro-democrat Americans don’t feel like their actions matter? Perhaps the opposition just isn’t that popular? Maybe the USA just didn’t have all that strong traditions of civil action to to begin with. At least when compared to countries lile Georgia or Serbia.

ALL planes land. The question is, whether or not there is someone left to clap afterwards.

It’s really not that the Canadian government is necessarily any good or even better than the one in the USA. But in case of an invasion there would be a war going on and violent deaths would be expected. Although the part with penises in mouths would most likely constitute a warcrime.

Thats assuming that the current states are able to keep their voting rights.

Care to share whitch book did you borrow?

While I might make similar choices, it still sound like a horror story. My immortal soul stuck eternally among the empty make-believe-people of GTA or the solitary existence of Minecraft?

I might still prefer the peace of non-existance.

I watched similar thing happen in my own country. It was just one decision (so far) and made with a very comfortable parlamentary majority. The problem was that it was supposed to be unconstitutional according to wast majority of constitutional experts. That turned out to be absolutely no problem for the parlament and the administration.

It’s not even that I am too much against what they decided, but it did change my views on the nature of law. Any law or constitution is just a paper if it isnt enforced and will carry no weight, when it is simply ignored.

Amazing! I’m happy for you. Life isn’t often great, but if you can be happy for your gf and seeing Sonic then it could be worse.

Olen parin viimevuoden aikana opiskellut saksankieltä ja seurannut täkäläistä mediaa. Siellä on hyvin voimakas jako eri kouluihin oppilaiden koulumenestyksen mukaan ja minun silmääni ainakin vaikuttaa, että järjestelmä on kauhea. Ihmisistä tehdään nuorella iällä eli yhdeksänvuotiaana ratkaisu senhetkisen pärjäämisen perusteella. Tuo ratkaisu sitten voimakkaasti rajaa yksilön mahdollisuuksia opinnoissa ja uralla läpi elämän. Tätä kannatetaan kuitenkin hyvin samankaltaisin perustein, kuin miksi persut nyt haluaisivat tasoryhmiä.

Omasta mielestäni varsinkin nuorten lasten jakamista tällaisiin ryhmiin tulisi varsin pitkälle välttää.

Tuntuu et ajat huononevat päivä päivältä. Ei sillä, että kaikki tarjolla olleet uutislähteet ennenkään hyviä olivat, mutta pahaltahan tää näyttää.

“Betrayal” might be a wrong word for it, but I find this disappointing because the current events are the reason I have tried using Proton instead of Gmail. A tweet wont ruin the functionality of Proton, but it goes against my personal rationale for making the switch.
