  • In Britain "Asian" means you're from India, Bangladesh or Pakistan. Not from Japan etc. Then you're from the Far East.

  • It's literally a fascist government, what do you expect. They were fairly moderate until Trump's election basically gave them permission to go nuts.

  • And white men. They detained a German guy and dragged him all over the country.

  • You do realise they've also been disappearing white people, right?

  • They'll merrily send you to El Salvador for looking at someone funny, though. Some disgraced sheriff didn't like a gay makeup artist and claimed he was a Venezuelan gang member. He was picked up and has disappeared in the system in El Salvador somewhere.

    Welcome back to the Stasi.

  • In the Netherlands you don't need to signal when you pull back in after overtaking in the middle lane.

  • The protests against segregation worked, though. As did the protests against nuclear energy in the Netherlands, protests against all kinds of shit in France, protests for womens votes, etc.

    Defeatism never works, though.

  • If he's got dementia, he'll probably die within 10 years of his first symptoms, and that's been a while. It'll still be too long, obviously.

  • Highly unlikely. The arms dealers are on his side.

  • Yeah, because in Germany it's normal to require 3 months' notice.

  • He was never cool, but he used to be considered a mildly amusing rich guy. He actually seemed to have a sense of humour at some point.

  • It is normal. But it goes something like this: The Incredible Tale of the Tiny Red Dog.

    Words like of, the, are, is etc. don't get a capital.

    Sauce: MA in English Language, and voluntary journalist.

  • Indeedy. Hitler didn't want to destroy the country, didn't defund scientific research, had advisors who knew what they were doing, didn't sell state secrets to the USSR, didn't want to destroy nature... I can't believe I'm defending Hitler.

  • I love that Romania declared its elections invalid because the winner had obviously been put there by Russia. Which is exactly what the US and the Netherlands should have done.

  • The Colosseum was never abandoned (apart from initially, obvs). The reason its still standing is that people (including popes) kept paying for it to be maintained.

  • They've picked trans people as a "danger" so people don't realise what the true dangers are (like having a fascist president, for example).
