No country has so far officially recognized the Taliban as Afghanistan's government due to their hard-line policies. The drastic erosion of women's rights continues.

Well Russia actually received a delegation in Moscow recently, iirc
- China officially welcomed a Taliban diplomat recently.
The guy in the picture is giving me "what kind of ~~american~~ Afghan are you?" vibes, e g. Jesse Plemons' character in Civil War
Don't worry, plenty of online leftists will still tell you how sweet and wholesome the Taliban is, or play "Whatabout" games.
Interesting how the article fails to mention the $7 billion that the US looted from the Afghan central bank when they pulled out.
- Probably because it was the USAs money in the first place. You can't loot your own checking account.
  
  It's weird that you would assume something incorrect like that, when you can just google it and find that the money was
  the reserves of Afghanistan’s commercial banks and ordinary people’s savings
  It's literally the business and personal savings of the Afghani people, inaccessible to them for over 2 years now.
  
  Man, do you automatically spit lies like that? I bet you're a zionist.

- DW being regarded left-center is so utterly ridiculous, it defies comprehension. According to this, basically anyone who is not a foaming at the mouth QAnon freak is left wing. This crap should really be banned from Lemmy. Nothing but disinformation.
  
  No but you see, telling the truth is leftist.
  
  That's the fun part. To be right wing with the amount of information and data we have is to reject reality altogether for the one you want, not the one you have. It's not really the fault of the fact checker that right wing has become "insane person". That's good ol humanity and right wing becoming an outdated idea no longer worth having.
- Can you stop with this crap?
  
  Just block them if you dont want to see it
