Is the girl in question the one blurred out? And is he not touching her? How is that appropriate? It’s not JUST the inappropriate sexual comment, but also TOUCHING of a minor, during a public meeting.

What’s going on Melbs? Enjoying your spring time there?

Better title would be “politician publicly admits being abusive to wife”.

Might be a sign fediverse isn’t gaining momentum.

Good gawd. You can’t make this shit up.

geez not true at all! I love the world!!! I just hate fascists!

The whole world needs to de risk from US companies. The right wing authoritarianism is here to stay.

I am a liberal. But I have none left for these morons. Since I don’t understand them, I must be out of touch too. But I live in Canada, and I don’t have any poor black american friends.

And for the Arabs who voted for Trump thinking he’s going to help with Palestinians. How stupid do you have to be?

I have zero sympathies for these morons.

These people CAN’T BE SERIOUS!!!

Good good! Let the exodus to Lemmy begin!

Falling birth rates are bad news for economies and billionaires, but good news for the planet.

Thai PM has warned Burmese over illegal entry as per this post here. Historically, Thailand is where Burmese exiles have always escaped to during political strife. During British occupation of Burma, hundreds of thousands of Burmese refugees lived in Thailand and formed a guerilla army that successfully participated in the liberation of Burma. Soon after independence different political and ethnic factions within the Burmese army that was created from merging the Burmese guerilla army with the British-trained colonial army mutinied into a civil war, refugees have streamed into Thailand on an annual basis. UN and international humanitarian agencies have long operated on the Thai-Burmese border for decades providing economic boost in those marginal regions to Thailand. Finally Thailand has <1% unemployment and has long welcomed and recruited Burmese expat workers currently estimated to be around 4 million, half of them believed to be illegal. This additional influx is a somewhat of a welcome boost.
