In 2022 it also just happened that russia was hosting possibly the largest military excercise in recent memory right on Ukraine's border when the situation turned too menacing. Good they happened to have all those cruise missiles ready as if they hadn't acted, russia would have been wiped out or something...
Occam's razor cuts well on the two "possible" viewpoints of this war.
First is that big country sees an opportunity to capture land from a smaller one. In multiple stages between 2014 and 2022. A very limited amount of assumptions that can explain what is happening...
Second presumes that all the occupied areas secretly wanted to be a part of russia, nato is threatening russian territory while not being present, non affiliated soldiers with russian (but not russian) equipment occupy areas, a jewish president turns out to be in charge of a genocidial nazi regime that just has to be replaced with a peaceful one, and finally all of this is best achieved by a 3 day (actually 476) special military operation that has a goal of achieving something, but nobody actually knows what.
I view nazi germany and china quite a bit different from real capitalist societies. Simply having a stock market doesn't mean the markets are free to function as they please.
I also tend to disagree with canada and usa being genocidial at this point in time. For sure they did horrific things, but comparing usa to nazi germany or current day china is delusional, as the US country's government is not actively killing a part of their own population.
What rubs me the wrong way in these conversations is mentioning capitalism as a system that commits the genocide. Both germany and china are/were state driven, and as such the markets didn't really have anything to do with the actions. Instead the genocide is driven by the government that is/was authoritarian, and as such the markets aren't driving the killing.
The one country I agree with being a free market and genocidial is Israel.
Killing millions and being dysfunctional are in a different realm of terrible. I'm sorry, but how did you come to the conclusion that they are even comparable?
Oli pakko poimia nää, koska tää on aina hauskaa luettavaa.
Ilmeisesti CBD:n myynti on laillista, jos sitä ei myydä lääkeaineena tai elintarvikkeena. Eli poliisia ei kai kiinnosta, koska mitään "laitonta" ei sinänsä tapahdu. Jos kiinnostaisi, niin se olisi resurssien tuhlaamista, ja oikeiden rikosten tutkinnasta pois.
Tullin toimintaa vertaisin siihen, että aloitettaisiin tutkinta myyjästä, joka myisi alaikäisille simaa, jossa olisi esim 0.2% alkoholia. Ymmärtääkseni on vaikeaa löytää kannabislajiketta, jossa ei olisi lainkaan THC:tä. Ihan kuten täysin alkoholitonta simaakaan. Onneksi suomessa on fiksu lainsäädäntö, joka ottaa huomioon tällaiset rajatapaukset...
TBH this is nothing new. They already randomly restrict you from viewing any type of nsfw content on the mobile browser version. It prompts you to download the app with no option to close the prompt.
