Start? We're 5+ years in, mate
To be fair, the current Russian government is more on a trend towards fascism than towards liberalism. Then again, as a European, I wish I couldn't say the same about the EU
I hope this is sarcastic. I don't speak Chinese, but I'm very confident this is a mistranslation, probably purposeful.
And preceded**
Ouch. From the third source, americans originally 65% supported "it's worth it going to war with Iraq".
End of history proponents in late 20th century: "LIBERAL DEMOCRACIES AND CAPITALIST MARKETS WILL BRING PEACE AND STABILITY BRO I SWEAR JUST GIVE IT TIME"
Lenin rolling in his grave looking at the growing tensions in the entire world as a consequence of Imperialist tensions in the 2020s as he predicted it inevitably happens in his 1916 essay "Imperialism: the highest stage of capitalism"
Watching live camera footage of different cities over the world seems like a relaxing activity to me. Can't recommend any particular website, earthcam.com just pops up when you Google it up so I tend to use that one (redirects you to places).
Also, learning some geography by looking at interesting relief features in en-gb.topographic-map.com -> The World, and finding those features in Wikipedia to learn more about them. Bonus points if you check on satellite imagery or pictures taken by visitors of places through stuff like Google Earth. As a Spaniard, I'll never get tired of dissing on the Great European Plain
Of course interviews are few and anonymous, and information is scarce
Funny how in the age of information we get daily videos of Palestinian children being bombed, but after seven years there's not much in the way of actual demonstrable evidence other than anonymous reports. Fucking hell, what's the racial divide in imprisoned population in the USA, with actually demonstrable systematic racially motivated police murders, and where's the UN report on that.
The extent of arbitrary and discriminatory detention...
Nice of you not following with the part where it says that the extent is unknown, and the report on forced medical treatment, poor conditions of detention and violations of reproductive rights, is based on anonymous interviews to a few tens of people, as is literally any source that makes these claims because there's no other evidence to support those claims, despite it being 7 years since the beginning of the supposed atrocities. It brings nothing new to the table compared to the old Amnesty International report, based on the same methodology, proving further that no real findings have been made.
Also, your comment of "genocide being a fashionable term these days" is absolutely crazy.
You guys should try the Milei approach: "if people literally don't have the money to buy food, food prices won't go up!!!!"
Seconded!
Damn, had to look if it's still up, and it most certainly is... That's bullshit tbh
So no mention of the word genocide, and just concerns about possibly arbitrary detentions in 2017-2019, gotcha. Thanks a lot for the source. I wonder how people react to this when they can now see a patently open genocide on social media anytime they want.
Can you link that please?
Just yesterday I was taking with a friend of mine, and she told me that ever since she started wearing earplugs (as in the soft things you put in your ears to block sound), she's enjoying concerts and loud environments a lot more without getting irrationally anxious. You might wanna try to grab yourself a pair of earplugs and to try them out next time you're in a loud environment!
or
I think you meant "i.e."
All I gotta say is "Nice caulk!"
Please, if you're gonna listen to Elton John, give a try to "Funeral for a friend / love lies bleeding", an 11-minute masterpiece
