Well I for one have never heard about anybody doing anything creative without being paid for it.

If a transsexual can’t have proper healthcare, it can in fact result in death, that is very real.
Another thing that’s real is that they are treated so poorly in general that they have the highest suicide rate by far of any minority.
Finally many choose not to live as the gender they wish they could, because it’s too problematic even dangerous. Even if this isn’t a physical death, it is killing the existence of people that can live their life as transgender.

Much the same way as the Iranian president when he visited New York some years ago, claimed that Iran did not have homosexuals, so there was no oppression of them.
A completely ridiculous claim we know is biologically impossible, and we know is false because they seek refuge in the west.
And we know Iran executes people for being homosexual, which of course is the ultimate genocide of homosexuals.

Or will you deny that too?

Iranian president says country has no gays

How is lack of healthcare = Not being represented?
You are making a strawman argument, there is much more to it than not being represented.

Lack of healthcare and lack of rights and protections that are common for other minorities, together with a huge deal of oppression, often violence and sometimes murder, is absolutely a kind of genocide, and in no way disrespectful to other forms of genocide.

Good question, but not in these shoes me think.
I have been further though, and looked way more like, but that was with Adidas.

At a minimum immigrants should be required to declare they respect basic norms and requirements in our societies, and breach of them could result in expulsion.
I’m thinking norms like respecting equal rights for women, respect our democracy, and respect other minorities, and respect that their religion is not more important than our laws.

I think to some degree the extreme right is rising because this lack of respect results in lack of respect the other way too. Which is harmful both ways, both to our democracy, and to the many immigrants that actually make an effort.

Nope there was a survey recently, that showed a clear majority among Republican voters support Ukraine.
Unfortunately that is not the case for Trump and the crazy MAGA crowd. And they are the ones running the show.
Some of them are probably also delusional enough to believe Trump will help Ukraine with the peace plan Trump claims to have. Despite every sane person knows Trump will just demand Ukraine to yield, because they are not getting any more help.

Of course the support for Ukraine is bigger among Democrat voters, but that doesn’t change that there also is a clear majority among Republican voters.

“Essence of Whispered Dreams.”
That actually sounds crazy cool, I would definitely buy that for my wife if it was available. Also the color is absolutely perfect.

In the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s West Germany was a poster-child for Denazification and democracy, and Nazi propaganda was and is illegal in Germany.
Even Scandinavian country Sweden, hailed for their liberal policies, had more Nazis than Germany.

But after reunification the weed began to grow back. AfD popularity is very much driven by the old Communist east Germany, which was also totalitarian.

Maybe it would have been better if East and West Germany hadn’t been reunited?

Thanks for posting the table, much more informative than the article.
IDK if I have a browser problem? But that table was not visible to me reading the article.

Negotiations can mean many things.
The only acceptable outcome is that Ukraine gets all its territories back including Crimea.
Then we can negotiate on maybe lifting some of the sanctions. There will probably also be negotiations on reparation for Ukraine.

Even in case of a total Russian defeat, there will probably be negotiations regarding many issues.

We (Denmark) have 0.9 homicides per 100,000 capita, UK has 1.1 USA has 6.3.
Of course there are other factors, but overall regulation definitely and very evidently helps.

The handle is just 4cm or about 1.5 inches, so a grown man can’t even hold it in his hand properly, it is clearly a kids toy. He may have used for role playing, although he called it a fidget toy?

MASTER SWORD = 22 cm or 8.6 inches including handle and holster.
We also have very strict knife regulation here (Denmark), but I think if it is a first time offense, he would have gotten off with a fine, since it’s obviously a toy.

Seems like a perfect place for role playing games!

Yes, this is scary, the media are basically all working for Trump, even those who claim the opposite. But they are falling for the Trump foghorn, just as much as any average Joe, where the media are supposed to be professionals and above that.

There would be 2 fewer extreme MAGA judges in supreme court.
The same level of MAGA corruption and disinformation would not have been possible.
January 6 would never have happened.
Trump would not have the same legitimacy and platform to constantly scream his MAGA hate message.
Trump would likely have been judged much sooner for the crimes that were revealed during his first campaign. So he might actually have been in prison by now.
The widespread MAGA treasonous behavior to favor Putin and Russia and undermine USA would probably not be a thing.

So since Trump has been THEE major driver of extremism and treason in USA for the past 8 years, I’d say no. USA would not be nearly as divided as it is now.

American aligned because of China getting ever more aggressive. Even Vietnam is now looking more to USA because they don’t trust China anymore!
There used to be good progress before XI Jinping, but XI is an old school hardliner and wants everybody to yield to the party, and foreigners to China, because they’ve become a super power.
Chinese political threats extend also towards EU countries, and are becoming extremely tiresome. China is becoming a bully.

No it’s because the headline is pandering a lie.

Removed by mod

I didn’t say he changed it, but he links these kinds of misinforming stories all the time.
I originally wrote the article was misleading, but since they correct the misleading headline already in the first sentence, that wasn’t really true.
So I changed it to the headline which is what is actually misleading.
But since this is misunderstood, I have now changed it back.

The fact of the matter is that u/return2ozma is flooding lemmy.world with misleading stories with misleading headlines, no matter how much they are the original headlines, they remain misleading. Those are often stories that in no way deserve to be spread.
