Never seen it but think it came out in the 90s?

Not sure what you’re trying to say.

Those articles are archaic. Very strange to assume that everyone will have seen those and then use them as a vehicle of attack.

Asia was never brought up in the conversation. Unsure why you feel the need to misrepresent my words.

You deduce that I’m racist based on one single post that indicates that they may want to avoid future attacks from Russia?

This has always surprised me honestly. The global north seems to underestimate just what a huge market that India could be for any product or service based on population size alone.

I was also disappointed in the decision from India to start purchases after the war began, but I suspect that it was more of an economic than a political decision.

More like stopping that from ever happening again.

You, as ever, unable to provide a single idea of what the alternative is.

Yes. Why are you acting like a Republican?

I don’t tend to let people insult me then attempt to influence me. Learn a little about the art of persuasion and try again. Also, get a grip. This isn’t Facebook or Reddit. Try not to act like those people.

LOL what a narcissist.

You put down half a thought. So what are you going to do, vote for an actual fascist or not vote so that an actual fascist wins?

I’m now convinced that a lot of this is trolling. People who say “Well I’m Muslim and it bothers me that Biden supports Israel so I won’t vote for him” have to be completely out of touch with reality or are completely fake. Same thing here–not voting for Biden ensures that Trump wins, and your theoretical third-party person has no chance of doing anything except dilute the vote.

So? I’m really not buying this narrative or these polls anymore. The respondents are either morons or plants.

New Star Wars sucks for sure. The originals are much better.

Not sure what you mean. The economic system is separate from the state.

This is every bit a “kids these days” article. You hit it on the nose–it’s a generational shift and older people are clutching at pearls. For funsies, there’s a piece of ancient Roman writing I came across when studying classics (I’m sorry that I don’t recall who it was) that said essentially “young people don’t speak Latin right”. This is basically a thing as old as time.

Here’s the gigantic thing that is sticking out to me:

Senior PiS figures expressed their support for banning what they call “eugenic abortions”. In 2016, Kaczyński declared that he would “strive to ensure that even very difficult pregnancies, when the child is condemned to death, is severely deformed, will end in birth, so that the child can be christened, buried, given a name”.

They are doing this under the guise of protecting souls, as if that is something that government should concern itself with.

Basically every country, for the most part, wants to keep regular relations going with every other country. Doesn’t mean they agree with each other or really even engage in trade. They want to remain friendly and have open communications channels. Severing ties in this way means that there is no possible normal interactions between them again.
