Reply to comment by Alarmed-Accident-716 in Russia detains WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich on espionage charges by jack_lafouine

Let's count the times in your previous comment that you were talking about the oil (drug) itself and not the cartridge

>Yeah, but she still knowingly brought drugs into a country

>The decision making process that goes into bringing drugs on an airplane is different than buying a cart from an average drug dealer

>As a smoker myself I have anxiety about just a bit of weed in my pocket when I’m going to the airport.

>Let alone having the courage to bring cartridges on the plane.

>or even got the stuff over there

Five times in that comment you were talking about the product in the cartridge

Only once did you mention the actual pen

It's almost as if you realize you were talking out of your ass because I told you you were talking out of your ass and now you're shifting the goal post. Almost

Reply to comment by IwishIcouldBeWitty in Four bankers who helped Putin’s friend set up Swiss bank account convicted by BezugssystemCH1903

> I’m not trying to solve any problem or even insinuate that I’m solving a problem.

If you’re not trying to do these things then what’s the purpose of your comments?

>I am simply pointing out concepts.

Which, without the eventual lead-in to a proposed solution, is as relevant to the debate as pointing out the concept of gravity or time- not at all.

Reply to The Catholic Church took a fresh step Thursday in acknowledging abuse endured by Indigenous peoples with the Vatican formally rejecting 15th-century papal edicts that empowered Europeans to colonize non-Christian lands by DoremusJessup

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 80%. (I'm a bot)

> Vatican City - The Catholic Church took a fresh step Thursday in acknowledging abuse endured by Indigenous peoples with the Vatican formally rejecting 15th-century papal edicts that empowered Europeans to colonise non-Christian lands.

> During a trip to Canada last July, Pope Francis faced repeated calls to rescind the so-called Doctrine of Discovery, which was used to justify abuses against Indigenous peoples, mostly in the Americas, who were viewed as inferior.

> In Canada, campaigners drew a direct link between the doctrine and decades of 20th-century abuse of the country's First Nations, Metis and Inuit people at Catholic-run schools - described by Francis as "Genocide".

Reply to Dmitry Muratov: Nuclear warning from Russia's Nobel-winning journalist by TheRealBunkerJohn

Muratov:

"We see how state propaganda is preparing people to think that nuclear war isn't a bad thing," he says. "On TV channels here, nuclear war and nuclear weapons are promoted as if they're advertising pet food."

"They announce: 'We've got this missile, that missile, another kind of missile.' They talk about targeting Britain and France; about sparking a nuclear tsunami that washes away America. Why do they say this? So that people here are ready."

Screw acknowledgement, stopping protecting pedophiles. Stop shuffling them around. Stop insisting that they be dealt with internally and START reporting them to law enforcement.

Show, don't tell, you evil bastards.

Not really

Only if you consider 'rest of world' to be the 13% of the global population that consists of EU/America/European Colony/American Vassal states.

The global south, BRICS, including the two largest countries in the world by population - all support Russia. Given BRICS has a large economy that EU + US now, economic support also leans on SA's side.

A more correct thing to say is that they are now an enemy of the established world order.
