I'm sorry you fell victim to the powerful madman image Russia is so desperate to project, when (misguided) rational cowardrice is all it does.

They wrote "they were asked about [their views]... those who were moronic enough not to lie, were deported", which reads as "not lied => deported" to me. Let's break it down:

Pro-Kremlin, lied = no claims; not deported, I guess.

Pro-Kremlin, not lied = claims they are deported; understandable.

Pro-Ukrainian, lied = no claims; wtf tho.

Pro-Ukrainian, not lied = claims they are deported; that'd be stupid.

Am I clear enough now?

There's a voting system. That should give you an idea of whether they're considered good or bad and of their visibility in general.

Sure, videocalling with one right now. That's not what I've been discussing, I was highlighting the suboptimal wording that suggested there were none.

Good luck finding a median life expectancy for my country.

facepalm There are pro-Ukrainian ones there, lots of them.

Now I want a TV show where they actually summon a dozen people from remote villages of sane countries who actually have zero idea who Trump is and retell them all he did with a straight face.

Instant gratification?? How about instant, decisive and meaningful support? Day 1, tanks have crossed the border and are advancing towards Kiyv? Close all borders, halt all trade, threaten to nuke Moscow unless they leave by Day 3, nuke Moscow on day 3.

Instead, the western world offers thoughts, prayers and excuses, with only occasional tanks here and there in between, months and years too late, making it worse for literally everyone. So when people that are watching Ukraine been helped just enough to save the helpers' faces, suffering through the bloodshed unfolding for a year+, and said people are not willing to normalize the shameful history page they're living through... I think it's neither fair nor productive to accuse them of seeking instant gratification.

Damn, if everybody really demanded instant gratification, democracies worked and politicians complied, we would've been talking about the war in past tense.

If there were a wire tied to the back of it, it wouldn't even reach it.

Of course. There's just one pitfall: there's no turning back, once you grasp it, the inferior ways of the past become unbearable.

You make it sound like they all have just one opinion, but some lie and some don't.

its definetly the way to go but i havent seen something this outrageous in a while..

ROM spies on you --- I sleep

ROM doesn't allow gestures with 3rd party launchers --- real shit

Wait, your retirement age is less than the average lifespan?

Making it an excellent choice for a programming beginner --sarcasm

Jelly 2 has a headphones jack and is way smaller than iPhone SE. I don't understand your message.

I (evidently) didn't say "stop banking", I said "stop banking with asshole banks that require safetynet".

My first smart pocket device had two SD slots, a full-sized one and a mini- one, accessible at all time with no bullshit attached. I remember using it to share photos between people's cards right at the end of parties. I thought it can only get better from there.

Now I'm typing it from the phone that's twice the size and if I were to attempt ejecting my microSD card / SIM tray, it'll shutdown.

Easy, don't rely on banking apps and other stuffs that require safetynets. I've been a client of, like, 6 banks in 2 different countries and never ever encountered one that cared. If one day I will, I'll just leave that bank.

What are you talking about, my https://www.unihertz.com/products/jelly-2 even has a headphone jack.
