I don’t get the Finland flag holder at the end?

I’m sorry, but russia is in fact real.

Ah, thanks for this.

Which the reason afaik they have such a weird name is:

Wierdly, when I click on the link I get a ‘server cannot handle the request error’.

Regardless, I agree that it ‘acts’ like a legit account, but still think it’s sus as hell. That entry in the modlog is from today, but I’ve definitely handled similar accounts in the past, and seen others do so elsewhere.

I understand the sentiment behind this, but FTR, the Hippocratic Oath is specifically towards patients: to treat them equally with the sole goal of improving their condition(s).

Hating on one particular doctor fulfilling their oath is misguided unless you want proving you’re worthy of treatment before any doctor will help you to become the norm.

The Irish Mirror also posted this, and gets a mostly factual rating from MBFC.

Honestly, he’s right. Data cable and infrastructure sabotage, assassinations, satellite communications jamming, and constant disinformation campaigns to spur a far right resurgence.

EU needs to start Tatting for russian tits. I would even go so far as to say they need to escalate until russia backs down before it is too late. The problem is civilians are too unwilling to support hostile responses. Happy to keep the peace no matter the cost until it is their turn to get invaded.

Yeah ‘food shortage not rising to full blown famine’ would probably be more accurate. There have been several severe droughts in the USSR/Russia since WWII that impacted food availability.

This chart shows the age distribution:

By your logic, Canada has twice the population of the US. This is obviously not the case.

Land area has little to do with population as you yourself eloquently show with the examples in your statement. The area’s culture, history, and environment are all more relevant factors for demographics. The USSR’s population was the hardest hit by WWII and their population ‘catch up’ hindered by frequent famines.

FYI if you use the link flag and place an ! in front we will see the image here without clicking.

it’s called tit for tat

Refusing to answer questions. Edit: trolling would probably be a better word.

It’s a fair point. I agree they would have attacked Zelensky no matter what, but IMO when Zelensky handed them their ass they fell back to core principles and so unsurprisingly resulted to classist insults.

Regardless, I’m really not that invested in the topic. My issue was the OP was hiding behind quotation marks instead of saying what they wanted to say and sealioning instead of explaining when people asked for clarification. My interpretation being so off mark itself shows an explaination was warranted.

If you don’t understand how criticizing not wearing a suit relates to working class I don’t think I can help you.

Going after someone for not wearing the right colour suit is similar in nature: ‘you are not one of us’.

Thank you for at least trying to answer the question. In the future it is polite to clarify your post when someone says they don’t get it, and rude to ignore them. @tisktisk@piefed.social

Last chance: What are YOU trying to say?

So secret it is in the news.

That’s my point: you are flinging shit at the wall and shrugging. What are YOU trying to say?

A blowhard obfuscating a very simple and commonly understood message: clothes matter. They communicate your status, ideology, and alignments. The recent fiasco in the White House where Zelenskyy was criticized for not wearing a suit coupled with the protest image depicted above strongly suggests a commonly heard refrain around these parts:

This is a war between classes. Oligarchs/Plutocrats vs Workers.

And consequently Zelenskyy identifying with the working class is the real reason Trump is withdrawing support.

There’s more to it I’m sure, but frankly, I can’t be bothered when people vomit word salads instead of just saying what they mean. It is more important for them to ‘sound’ intelligent, than communicate their message so I give them what they want :P
