Ive never used WhatsApp. What niche does it really fill? Is it a conventional phone/text replacement for people?

How does doctor/patient confidentiality apply when your patients are admitting constant streams of war crimes to you?

All the guy wanted was to die a martyr. He said so at his sentencing. Not only is this not going to show serious consequences but encourage future terrorists like you pointed out.

That said, Hegseth would be all too happy to encourage more violence on US citizens if it means ramping up the security apparatus and eroding citizen rights. No better than Netanyahu allowing Oct 7th to be as murderous as possible.

You really have to ask yourself what was the point? The crime she did is beyond words, but what is gained by killing her now? She’s been on death row for over 30 years. If she was on a 25 year sentence she might have been up for parole. Is she really a danger to society? Ok, refuse her parole and move on.

Do you really think the 18 year old who did the horrendous crime gave a shit that the punishment was the death penalty? Will it stop the next 18 year old from killing? It doesn’t prevent crime at all, it’s just retribution. Is that really something necessary for the public good?

Establishing the premise that killing someone is ok if it’s because they did something wrong might be dangerous if your entire society is armed and has strong moral opinions.

I doubt she will recover fully. Her liver, kidneys and other organs will be fried. It’s very possible she might still die from this, just over a long period of time.

I think she will likely win a legal appeal for clemency and the state is unlikely to really fight over it because the family could claim damages for the unnecessary harm.

Its intentional cruelty. You hear it from death row inmates in Japan, where they’ll show up one morning and 5 minutes later its over. It just destroys people’s mind.

You’ll see government or political parties celebrate their prison system.

The farmers are using all kinds of growth hormones, pharmaceuticals, pesticides and GMO that are considered unsafe for human consumption in Canada, Mexico and the EU.

US food standards were a fucking joke before this administration that fired everyone enforcing anything.

You cant even drink the tap water in some places.

Isnt this one of the ones he admitted and bragged about on stream? He’s publicly confessed so many crimes.

Being outwardly celibate is a way lots of different people resist. That is now removed.

You can expect to be used against unmarried women, forcing them to get married. Likely also bound to stigmatize getting married at even a mildly later date than one might have.

It removes any protections LGBTQ folks may have had by staying “single” publicly.

Will likely also result in couples being unable to have children being otherwise persecuted.

Yeah, if he was actually able to say any of those lines, it’s probably heavily rehearsed. There’s 2-3 direct snippets associated to him and that’s it. Took no questions.

No, you just see him talking to some people inside the senate. Its sketch that the reports of what he said are only second hand accounts. Still reported by Associated Press, so hard to get more credible… overall suss still.

It’s inexplicable why they are currently and formerly so secretive about his condition. Makes no sense for any good faith reasoning.

Hehe, remembering the joys of Deadliest Warrior now. No clips found on youtube, but that spetsnaz dude doing all the tactical dodging and faffing about while shooting still gets to me. Especially when the US army guy responds that its just more efficient to raise your gun and shoot first. lol

They used Poland as a military governed area to deport people, then perform extrajudicial killings… then they started settling it with Germans.

They then started “evacuating” them to the east: Poland. There they had a military government outside of civilian oversight. Started with the ghettos, then work camps, then extermination camps. Evacuation became code for killing over time.

That doesnt even make sense lol

I mean… that’s why manufacturing moved oversees in the first place.

Good luck convincing all those Ontarian auto workers to stop buying “american” cars.

I don’t care myself, I don’t buy none of that shit. Just not helpful to target people who are probably on your side.

Most of that crap is just licensed American IP produced locally. Cutting it out isn’t even going to be as impactful as other things and will harm local manufacturers and suppliers.

Boycotts need to target direct things. People have been making those choices at the grocery store quite effectively. Liquor and oranges. Web services need to be the next target with government support. Tax Netflix and friends into paying into our culture as they always should have been.

Even with tariffs, employing Canadians remains cheaper as wages are lower overall, and you don’t need to pay for obscenely expensive medical insurance for your employees in Canada.

I don’t think Americans grasp how uncompetitive their labour market is specifically because they don’t have single payer healthcare.

As a rule of thumb, you want to give the least of your personal information to the country that will violate your country’s independence. Its a rational choice.
