I remember and will never forget the media, politic and the following "french frog white flag bashing" when we told you the reasons invoked for this war were bullshit...
But more important, I will always remember the deadly attacks we got in our country following the global destabilisation you created in the world. They couldn’t access USA so they targeted the Europe instead... Charlie Hebdo, the Bataclan and many more...
I have participated to a retrospective meeting leaded by the colonel in charge of Paris when several sites and the Bataclan were attacked. And how he had to choose where to send the help and how many vehicules he could afford, trying to know if another attack will happens in another site. In this meeting I’ve also heard the phone call of people crying for help and being executed by these fanatics...
Knowing that 6 days before I was in this same fucking place listening Nobuo Uematsu playing final fantasy music... I’m sure you understand why I will never forget that.
I’m lucky this concert was not on the same day of the football/soccer game they initialy targeted but couldn’t due to the enhanced security this day (a minister was there with my company boss and some others colleagues). So they started to travel in the city, shooting at random (like bars) before entering in the concert room and massacre everybody inside...
All of that for the $ of your dear GOP members... The fucking $ you put in all conversations like it’s the ultimate goal of a life. More important than a life... A child life in a school for example...
Please USA, clean your shit, i’m sick seeing the world being impacted by your politics...
When does it started ? Do you have law prohibiting smoking in public place like restaurant, transports, nigth club, office, etc ?
Because, while it’s true we see less smokers in movies, it’s the first time i hear US having a anti-smoking culture... Note that I include drugs like weed in the smoking culture and we heard a lot from it recently. And only from US.
On my country, since the 90’, it’s forbiden to smoke in public place, in the office, etc. They also increased a lot it’s price bia taxes, put labels on the packaging and the amount of smokers reduced a lot since. But hollywood still represent us as smoker ^^
It has always been like that and it’s a reason a war should be avoided when you don’t have the power to maintain your military and economic force...
And it’s exactly why main leaders of the worlds warned russia months before the invasion until the first day of the invasion: "Are you sure? You should not move so many troops near ukraine border for your ’exercice’ Because you have more too loose as a super-power country"
The frozen assets will be given back AFTER the war reparations costs have been assessed and paid in full by Russia... So they won’t see them before a long time...
I see so many people not grasping how serious the situation is (or just saying: he’s jockiiiing) that my blood boil. Also because last summer, I saw my grandmother cry while she was remembering how she lost her sister during the first days of the WWII (killed in her house due to the bombing of the train station nearby). She was 5~6 yo and her sister 10yo. All of that because people didn’t react strongly enough to stop a party and a crazy man.
When we should start to worry? When it’s too late?
Young, I couldn’t comprehend how Hitler was elected, disgraced then could come back and how the people let that happening.
Decades later, i really understand: complacency.
Someone bringing the presidency position just casually say in front of the press that he want to hurt its opponent... In public.
Imagine what he say in private, with all his yes men and psycho writer of project 2025 for example... And we know it’s not an accident, he reference hitler more than once... He is in admiration with dictators... he want to be one of them...
Yeah, please "don’t exaggerate".
Don’t learn from the history. You’re lucky he is also stupid and old...
Make sure to click on "show all" button (or equivalent button of your app) once in the messages tab. Once visible, mark them as read so they won’t remain as "active" unread message.
I had this behavior with my app that was considering the messages read (so hidding them by default when going to the messages tab) once i opened it while not marking it read on lemmy side (hence the 7 unread messages displayed)
I don’t think it’s the right place for this kind of message (or you just open a pandora box of totally not related world news from everybody for everything). .
But good luck for your recovery! You should have watched Die Hard and learnt from John McClane than going barefoot around glass and metal is not a good idea...
Nop. In your head only.
