Considering that OP’s teachers apparently beat their students (or at least stand idly by while their colleagues do), I’d argue that they do not deserve one ounce of respect.

Agreed. China is openly hostile towards Taiwan, but it has not committed any actual acts of aggression and none of China’s actions warrant a military response.

As evidenced by all those NATO troops on Russian territory. Oh, wait. There’s none.

It’s not open to interpretation, it’s plain as fucking day. Do you even bother reading Russian media? Because they openly admitted to it.

Then the rest of the world ought to read Putin’s own essay on what he thinks of Ukraine, I can’t be bothered to link it right now but it’s on the Kremlin’s official website if you want to read it yourself. This invasion is a blatant, imperialist landgrab.

Hate to break it to you but China is a dictatorship. They don’t even pretend otherwise, the primacy of the Communist Party is literally part of their constitution.

Nazi Germany had elections. North Korea has elections. As long as there’s no actual opposition on the ballot, just having elections means nothing.

So you claim that China is a democracy based on… having absolutely no knowledge of Chinese politics?

If only there was a country that could easily end the war by simply withdrawing back behind its borders…

But do keep cheering for a fascist dictator – everything to oppose evil America, right? No matter how many innocents die.

PiS is a bunch of self-serving wannabe fascists. And in other news shocking truth unveiled: water is wet!

I did. Explicitly cheering for Ukrainian deaths or not, they support the invasion, which means they support murdering Ukrainians by default. You can’t have it both ways, if you support Russia, you support the murder of Ukrainians.

You’ve just described Hexbear. :b

The current system is entirely sustainable. It does need reforms, but a regulated market economy combined with strong social welfare programmes is the best economic system we’ve come up with so far, by a very large margin. Planned economies were attempted, they universally failed.

Correct, all diminutives are neuter in German. In this instance the base word is die Magd (historically the maiden, nowadays the maid), which is grammatically female.

Which they technically didn’t. I’m sure Nvidia has a legal team that vetted their solution, they certainly have the money for it. At this point the “protection” against the proprietary driver is just anti-consumer.

31, Germany, I can’t drive at all. City kid.

If by “do your own research” you mean “read the studies” then by all means, go ahead. If, and I guess that’ll be the case for 99% of people without related degrees, you can’t understand them you should accept that you’re in no way equipped to do your own research.

Unlike Russia, Ukraine is not ruled by fascists and no provinces that want to secede from Ukraine either.

You know, it’s fascinating how some people on the left are willing to side with fascism just because it happens to oppose “the West”. Talk about ideological inconsistencies.

So we’re in agreement then. Russia needs to withdraw from Ukraine immediately so that peace talks can take place.
