Cycling in the cold really is no problem.

Being tolerant of genocide is a very silly thing.

No not silly, evil.

That’s really not going to happen at this rate.

You’re right, but two things can be true at the same time: Europe is slipping to the right, but it still has a lot more civil engagement.

But as long as neoliberalism is maintained while it withers, the course here will be the same as the US: Fascism.

I am from the Netherlands, born and raised, and let me just say: the lack of civil resistance against Trump’s regime is shocking to me and my Dutch peers.

Butter the toast. Eat the toast. Shit the toast.

God, life’s relentless.

No the regime killed far, far more:

Just stop it man… Touch grass and talk to Syrians instead of using their plight as pawns in your imaginary game of geopolitics

Assad killed 201,290 citizens. Not supporting that has nothing to do with anything else.

Caitin is an Assad supporting Putin apologist and has no place in progressive politics.

It’s not ethnic cleansing in your book, but who cares? It is according to the ICC, which is why there’s an arrest warrant for Putin for ethnic cleansing.

In the past nights Russia fired thousands of rockets and drones at civilian targets. The only reason Ukraine doesn’t entirely look like Gaza (and some parts do) is because of the population density and the air defense systems.

Ah, that’s why Israel bombed the fuck out of his military in day one! Because he’s their agent! And Assad wasn’t, because they never bombed him. Riiight!

So did the UK. Are we going to eradicate Dickens as much as Tolstoy?

People in Egypt are dirt poor and can hardly stay afloat themselves. Why expect them to take the burden for a crisis that they didn’t cause and don’t support? (Is Egypt corrupt as fuck and is are the people running the state rich as fuck? – yes.)

Santoku, maybe?

Here’s a tiny shred of evidence from this somewhat credible organisation called the UN/OHCHR: https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2022/08/un-human-rights-office-issues-assessment-human-rights-concerns-xinjiang

Would you now present me with ‘evidence’ that an entire ethnicity is primarily Nazi? Because that sounds awfully racist to me, but what do I know?

I love France and all, but let’s not pretend they have good coffee culture. What passes for cappuccino there… The horrors I’ve seen.

Considering the gravity of the situation, those numbers are devastatingly low.

Two weeks ago in Munich 250000 people protested against a fascist party – before elections even started. Just to put things into perspective.

It’s telling that nowhere in this thread there’s mention of the US demolishing it’s relationship with its most important ally, Europe.

The US is a lost cause, nationally and globally. It might save it’s state, but repairing a (already wobbly) international reputation will take decades.
