I could try to weasel myself out of this by saying I was emulating Trumps knowledge and attention to detail… but yeah, didn’t know that, thanks for correcting!

Art Deco and Art Nouveau both are great in my eyes. (Neo-)Gothic cathedrals and churches are also wonderful.

But one more regional thing: I really like the Brick Gothic style. It is robust against wear and tear and still looks great.

Ok yes, then I agree. But deciding to stop a mass murderer has often a possible life ending consequence and I think most agree that it would still be the right way to act.

Thanks!

Refusing lawful orders comes with life-ending consequences.

Not even close to real? As far as I’m aware, death punishment is not what happened to any of those that refused during Vietnam or Afghanistan.

And also for a certain value of lawful I might add. Last I heard congress didn’t say the USA is going to war with Iran. Making it not exactly a war situation. Hey, now that you say it, suspiciously close to the last time a Republican president decided to play little dictator and fucked up the middle east. Strange how that keeps on happening.

You need to explain that “China” part in there for me. I understand the Stockholm part of the joke, but not the other one.

Yeah, now that the USA attacked in (yet another) UN violating war, those Swedish nerds really have to give it to him. Or his feelings will be hurt.

That’s my current state as well: if I kill myself just like that, the ones in power won. So I’m not letting them win. Either by surviving or… your option.

We laughed at the Republican party maybe 10 years ago, nowadays there are a lot of far right parties getting strong all over Europe =(

What rebounding are you talking about? The Dow Jones is at a currently stable 10% lower than 1 last month. I don’t exactly see a rebound there, except the short high some high hours ago, which then decreased again.

Thank you for explaining my point in more detail. They charge more because they can, correct.

That would only be true if you ignore every other part of the price calculation. For example because the numbers of sold consoles are much higher than in the past, more people are buying the games, leading to more income for the game development cost, leading to the same prize.

See? By ignoring every other influencing factor I can also argue the complete opposite of you.

They obviously meant the Chinese add-on, which recently was released for the Remaster. The original Chinese add-on was only released 2016, so not even 10 years ago.

Agreed, but that wasn’t what the other comment demanded. If we treat other people like Nazis treat their victims, you are a Nazi yourself.

That Nazis do not get the benefit of the doubt or a public soapbox or platform is something I agree with and hopefully what the other commentator meant instead of executions and ovens. But it is important to not dehumanise Nazis and not stoop to their level. They are all too human, that is the problem.

No idea about your specific legal situation, as it heavily depends on where on earth you are.

But what sprang immediately to my mind is that it sounds highly illegal if the manager is indeed right. They knowingly let you do things, which apparently they know you are not allowed to do. In a health care environment, which normally have some kind of control instances.

So regarding the “benefiting you”: have a talk with your old manager about somebody telling the control instances of your profession. Orrrr maybe they could help making the transition easier for you… For example by paying the training for you.

Fair, fully agree there.

Everywhere?

The whole idea of leftism is to deconstruct hierarchical power structures.

mega corps are the current incarnation of exactly that.

Aahh, see? Now that is more problematic than the article about a folkloric world theme park I read.

But it’s also not exactly new, company towns were already a sad part of our reality. Luckily we got over it, but rich people of course always want to get back to it.

Never heard of EPCOT before, quickly scanned over the Wikipedia article:

what’s the problem of that theme park?

Again, I’m not denying verifiable reality, you are not reading correctly.

The article mentions the sentence in the following paragraphs

Indeed, from the campaign trail in the east Berlin district of Lichtenberg, von Storch told Drop Site that “‘From the river to the sea’ means kill all Jews—I don’t think we should have that free speech, I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

Dayan had provocatively uttered the phrase, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” on social media in response to an article in November 2023 saying that the slogan should be prosecuted.

-> not illegal, just some idiots calling for it to be illegal

Here, just for you, from me who lives in Germany, where it’s not illegal to say it: “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”

And I mean it, because what Israel is doing is simply a genocide. But that doesn’t mean you can just change reality to what you think it is.

And honestly, if you read and understood the article, it shouldn’t take much time to search for the terms you know and then copy that into a comment to prove me wrong.

… Because that is exactly what I did with this comment, proving you wrong that the sentence you wrote is in fact not illegal.

Edit: after checking Wikipedia, I have to partially retract my statement about the legality. The ministry of inner affairs ordered Hamas as terrorist organization and the saying as its slogan and forbid it. However, multiple courts have already overturned that decision and stated that the saying is not illegal in itself, only if its meant as direct support for Hamas. So I was wrong, but the Wikipedia article explained it much better than the posted article.
