Reply to comment by WhoaEazzzyTurbo in Orbán: The EU has abandoned the two goals it was created for: peace and prosperity by Hoihe
OP reeks of being a state-paid stooge, check out his word usage stats.. You don't get word usage counts like that unless you're working from a script or a very explicit set of instructions.

One can only speculate why putin is worth more for orban than the billions of euros of EU funding he could swindle into his pocket every year.

Because it is actually still the Japanese Navy flag. Do I think they should change it? Definite yes.

Obedience is not peace.
Authoritarianism is not prosperity.
Orban is a fool.
In order to have peace and prosperity sometimes peoples need to protect themselves from or kick the shit out of authoritarians.

Reply to comment by Old-Example-1023 in Indian Govt expresses interest in building Vladivostok Satellite City in Russia as part of PM Modi's Act Far East Policy by tatv_047
When India got its freedom it could have chosen the US over the USSR, but I guess the colonial taint was stronger in India than the mishandled breakup of Pakistan.

Yes. Because inflation is a measure of the rate of change of prices.

Reply to comment by Hudell in Huge Microsoft exploit allowed users to manipulate Bing search results and access Outlook email accounts by hillai
Some time ago I used Bing for a few days by accident and I was literally getting mad at how bad my google results were. Google itself has been getting worse and worse over time so I thought that was just the next level down until I realized I was on Bing.

This is how government should be. Instead of wars we send our leaders over to beat the crap out of each other until somebody yields and then that decision becomes policy. Don't like how we made out last time? Elect somebody stronger next time.

It's a terrible source, which is presumably why OP chose it; it's just a Qatari influence operation.

You may want to add novichok lined underpants or polonium tea as other things to avoid. Edit: you already added tea but not underpants.
You may just want to skip the underpants and have a chilly nilly willy.

Reply to comment by OraclesPath00 in China calls US debt trap accusation 'irresponsible' by BubsyFanboy
I agree with almost everything you say. I hate credit and credit cards, but I am almost forced to used them by my bank. I could go back to cash I guess, but in this world some companies don't even take that. My credit union charges me to use a debit card, but I can use a credit card unlimited with continued higher limits which we don't ask for. Debt slavery by no other terms.
On unions though, I have recently moved to Canada with my canadian wife. Never belonged to unions before. I work as a professional and I have to say, many people here think it is the utopia of work. It is so not in my experience. I have to start at the bottom again, because experience means nothing in these unions. It's all about seniority - who started at the company first. I have people half my age, with half my experience and knowledge who started 15 years ago earning three times as much as me. It doesn't matter how hard I work, I will never get ahead. The union is led by 'senior' employees who just look out for themselves. It is an old boys club, so if anyone else runs, they gang up on them and make their lives difficult.
I am now earning less than I was 30 years ago. The company can treat us like sh$t because they know we can't move anywhere else, because we will have to start at the bottom again.
Experience, knowledge and meritocracy mean nothing here.
In my experience, unions are the worst thing that ever happened to me and my family and for the first time in my life I can see myself working at walmart after retirement just to survive.
