Apparently Biden does not want to win. He will rather attend a fundraiser in California, than represent US in a meeting for achieving peace in Ukraine like a world leader.

Congrats America, you convicted #trump and have shown there’s still #ruleoflaw in place: The politically affluent aren’t excepted from having to follow the same laws as everyone else.

But! Don’t get comfortable now! This is only the beginning!

#MAGA by and large doesn’t seem to subscribe to the principle of rule of law, and there will be plenty of popular support to overturn the ruling coming your way next.

Were you prepared fo winning this, America? Can you hold back the backlash?

This image has now made the rounds. My conclusion made from comments seen on social medias around the world is that quite the many people are in fact on board with burning books.

”Terrorist books” is what makes the difference, apparently.

Oh, how quickly does the thin veil of civilisation erode. And was it really there to begin with?

People playing civilised, being brutes. This is the true story of modernity.

If I wanted to avoid escalation by militant Islam in the #middleeast, I wouldn’t start by making a quarter million able-bodied men homeless & motherless with nothing to lose.

In a groundbreaking study from 2017, Chatard et al found social comparison to be subliminal.

In the study women were shown images of thin women or heavy women at sub-conscious threshold viewing times of less than 20 milliseconds.

Even when they consciously didn’t register seeing them and weren’t able to make the comparison, the study found feeling good or bad about their bodies still consistently affected.

Good comment on #Ukraine by Timothy Snyder:

”This isn’t 1939, this is 1938 but Czechoslovakia has chosen to fight.” …

”In that world where Czechoslovakia resists, there is no second world war.” ..

”There would have been a conflict, but there would not have been a second world war.”

We are in 1938, and we can prevent World War Two by helping Ukraine win!

I guess I’ll start preparing for a Trump victory. Not because I think the donald is doing good, but because what Biden is saying about #israel may cost him the election.

This latest dismissal of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in particular.

Liberals understand the importance of #ruleoflaw. And undermining that just out of hand with broad strokes and bravado.. Is just digging dirt from under everyone’s feet.

LOL #tiktok measures retention BY THE SECOND.

I mean ”Show me the incentives and I’ll show you the results” has never been clearer.

I bet even now at least ten thousand 12-year old kids are studying their retention metrics underneath the blanket, hiding from their parents, trying to figure out how to squueze out an extra second from their next content.

Oh my. As much as I don’t agree with mr. Fico’s pro-Russian politics, I definitely wouldn’t want to give him any extra sympathies.

Which is sure to happen, because I hope he survives the attempt on his life.

This is also perfect for radicalising the far right among his supporters. Show them a threat and they’ll organise street patrols ”to keep the peace”.

It’s the perfect storm, really. Really wish this didn’t happen!

Edelleen on kyllä aika lähellä 100% mahikset, että jos vanhempaa väkeä on paikalla ja tulet sähköautolla, niin joku sieltä avaa suunsa että: "Tiedätkö että toi sun #sahkoauto sitä ja tätä?"

Ja siitä keskustelusta ei pääse eroon ennenkuin ne on todistaneet että niiden 6000 romu on ekologisempi kuin mun 60000 sähkövatkain. Ihan sama mitä sanoo "faktoja" vastaan jotka on yleensä väärin.

Oon vaan ruvennu sanoo että: "Inhoan kovia ääniä ja tää on hiljainen", että pääsee vaihtaa aihetta.

gimulnautti, 30 days ago to Russia

#Russia is now at peak #military-industrial capacity, practically zero unemployment, pay hikes because not enough labour force to man the weapons factories. 35% of government spending go to military. 7.1% of GDP. All of it to go up in smoke in #Ukraine

However, if we look at the numbers, this output only matches current EU military spending. Countries which are on avg spending less than 2% on it currently.

Tell me again how Ukraine supported only by Europe can’t possibly win?

Image uploads for Mastodon servers seem to be really intolerant for packet loss, which was plenty from where I was over the weekend.

Journalists in the west now seem to finally be admitting that our media environment has seen a radical shift towards anti-democratic forces.

Yet. This didn’t come out of nowhere.

Remember those same people posting RT clips daily back in 2015?

As far as my home country goes, we have pretty solid evidence that even if we have only ourselves to blame for supporting these people, #Russia had an #influence and provided a lot of the #disinformation ammo they shot with.

When I write: ”Palestine shall be free, from the river to the sea”, am I an antisemite?

My view is I am not. Actually I don’t even even have a quarrel with with Israel existing.

The UN resolution that founded Israel didn’t say the Palestinians should leave. Israel made that decision all by themselves.

Having made that choice, one is fully responsible for the consequences. Including millions of people singing to have their homes back, and the sympathy for them.

Article in Finnish, but very important in current #russia conflict

Kreml uses ”traditional Russian heritage” as reasons to setup paramilitary training abroad. These ”cossacks” are not ethnic #cossacks, but are paid by Russian state to conduct training with live weapons as ”heritage”

Of these Kremlin-funded cossacks around the world, 27000 have already fought in #ukraine

Needless to say, Cossacks are not originally Russian either, but from south Ukraine 🇺🇦
