Yeah but that’s an example of tyranny by the majority. Just because a majority of people want something doesn’t make it right. In theory I like the idea od banning the AFD, but I’m scared of the potential backlash it could cause and what the consequences could be. In the modern day when people are so segregated in their own bubbles, I feel like this could make them more extremist (“Look, I was right, they’re just trying to silence the truth")
Why does it matter to you?
Yeah they can exert a lot of influence
I didn’t even realise this comment was a joke and was confused at OPs question, until I realized they were thinking about the EU.
No, technically you just need to be “European”, which is never strictly defined anywhere. It was being considered that Algeria join after all, but it didn’t happen because of the civil war (from my understanding of the situation). Canada is one of the most European-like non Europe countries, so it would kinda fit.
Man is trolling about Rwanda and Uganda
Interesting that for Democrats Canada has had more “unfriendly” responses than the EU even before the sanctions. Maybe because the EU is less relevant to them since Canada directly borders the US?
Jesus fucking Christ how I hate every single word that Vance produces out of his mouth. One of the most spineless disgusting men I’ve ever seen. Guy doesn’t realise that the US massively benefits from the freedom of navigation and that European countries are bankrolling the US defense sector by buying massive amounts of equipment without which the prices would be much higher for the US as well.
I mean, that just sounds like the problem you would have with anyone radicalised by religion. If you had a hyper Christian or Jew I doubt it would be much different. Perhaps the problem there might be that many more Muslims are ardent believers than Christians, so the atmosphere makes people more inclined to be radical as well. Or maybe it’s just a case of correlation does not equal causation.
Whilst this in theory may hold, people are social animals that live in societies with rules and norms and that typically have only one partner. If half your male population dies, you’re not gonna have guys go around having sex with multiple women just to make up the difference, you’re just gonna have a lot of single women.
Possible, but I wouldn’t really see this as evidence of that in particular. Israel has been conducting subversive actions against Hamas and the Houthis for a long time and something like that pager attack was likely being planned far ahead.
