I heard Russia, Iran, China and north-korea also follow this trend, great thinking of the boss.

For the people on the streets it doesn’t change anything, but it’s weird how little blame Erdogan is getting here.

No matter how much I dislike Musk, I don’t think he’s giving that much choice. Erdogan is a dictator who has the power to block X altogether. A real free speech advocate would not succcumb to the pressure of a repressive government, but the article does imply Musk is not the initiator of these bans: “Musk himself said that “the choice is have Twitter throttled in its entirety or limit access to some tweets.” He said X would publicly post the Turkish government’s requests.”

Not saying we shouldn’t put Tesla’s on fire tho.

What if the plot isn’t about locking up the opposition leader, but about luring out his most vocal supporters? It is much easier to keep anonymous civilians in jail, as opposed to the leader of a movement. I feel like just locking up Imoglu is just too stupid a move to make.

Sometimes now before i finished reading the headline I assume it must be from the onion or some other satire source, and until a second later i see it is just real news. The world got so unpredictable lately.

O right, there is a massive amount of Kazachstan in between them :x

So many comments about them starting a new political party and I don’t want to disagree but if democrats already have less votes than republicans now, wouldn’t that make it even harder to win an election?

I’m thinking if there would come an end to the war in Ukraine soon, other countries bordering Russia better have their shit together.

Quick poll: if your country would become inhabitable because of climate change, where’d you prefer to go?

I want the EU to support the protesters, but I can also see this validating Vucics rhetoric of there being a ‘hostile takeover’ organised by foreign powers.

I know you’re being ironic because that is for sure the real solution, but we’re in a too dire a situation to just focus on fossil fuels.

That’d be true if both parties would actually want what they say they want, not if either party is untrustworthy and has a record of breaking agreements.

I agree Zelensky should be wearing whatever he wants, but he was meeting Trump not Netanyahu and came in as a representative of state and not as some influencer.

I’ve heard people say that cars are like computers on wheels now, and I guess that is more true for the swastitruck than any other EV. They should have hired car designers to design it. Can’t wait for the swasticab lol.

Was Arkansas always that conservative or this a recent thing?

Heil the land of the free!

you confuse capitalism in general with the concept of a capitalistic nation-state, history has proven over and over that people with almost infinite money will use that money to the buy violent means to not only protect their capital but also to enforce their rule. The purest form of capitalism was never invented or made-up by mankind, it acts as a force of nature like water finding the path of least resistance. The thing is, that in history there have always been multiple owners of wealth (in our times organised in nation-states) competing against each other for power and resources. Because of that it might not seem like this capital is self-organising, but there is definitely a ‘law’ that makes it so that the person with all the money wins. We should be happy that not all those with wealth (and power) persue wealth (and power) at all costs. In other words, thank god most people care about other things beside money (and power).

or they did have stand up since we clearly weren’t bored to extinction?

It’s a bit morbid, but Al Jazeera keeps a live tracker (https://aje.io/pnauxp), there are over 30 times more Palestinians killed than Israeli. The odds must be even more extreme if you compare Palestinians starving or Palestinians made homeless to Israeli. It’s crazy how unbalanced the scales are.
