Gerard Depardieu has been found guilty of a crime recently, and unless the appeal goes through, he will then automatically be stripped of his Legion d’Honneur

Posthumous exclusion of the Legion is straight up not a thing, so there is no point in talking about Abbé Pierre

Well yes I agree, still the reason for them sending missiles is to disable Israel’s defense so that they’re not so comfortable bullying Iran

Well yeah that’s exactly the point of Iran’s attacks

I have much less of a problem with natives saying they should exterminate colonialists than I do the other way around.

Why?

Lmao

Taiwan is a region of the ROC. The ROC is a country.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan_Area

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan

You can check the territorial claims of the Republic of China (“Taiwan”) under the selector “Show map of Taiwan (dark green) with ROC Mainland Area and historical claims (light green)”

The map is not quite up to date as it still shows the ROC as claiming Taiwan, despite formally granting independance in 2002 (source)

Because that’s a history question. “Taiwan” is not a country, it’s a province of the Republic of China (ROC), which was the government of China before the communist revolution. They fled to Taiwan but their constitution etc still define them as the Republic Of China, with territorial claims over all of China

Here is an article specifically on that exact topic

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan_Area

Edit: The main “Taiwan” wikipedia article also has a map that can be selected under the label “Show map of Taiwan (dark green) with ROC Mainland Area and historical claims (light green)”

They have their own singular drawback with being a stain on the environment.

Seriously, just get a bidet

It’s not what I meant. I’m not criticizing people for voting liberal on that one – I’m criticizing, on one hand, the lax attitude people have towards fascism before elections happen, and the unwillingness of both the prosecutors and leaders to do anything about fascism.

The attitude of the latter is why the former is so lax about fascism (imo), and they should be pressured to take actual action against fascism, as well as actually addressing popular issues. Because simple posturing is how thing don’t get better for the average voter, and why that average voter might end up thinking fascism might be the actual solution

The only civil war that could possibly happen is between netanyahu and people thinking he’s not genociding hard enough.

I see way too many people thinking israel is somehow a dictatorship and the fault for the genocide is with the government, when the most widespread criticism of israel’s government by israelis is that the government is not “doing enough”. The country is rotten to the core, as are all ethnostates

These kind of posts will, sometime in the future, be referenced in a memorial of some sort as complacency in the face of crimes against humanity.

History will not look kindly at you.

If it’s truly just a lesser evil, as opposed to “good”, then voters will be disillusioned and the next election will result in fascism. Liberals failing to do good is the sole reason fascism is escalating worldwide.

It’s sprouting BTW, it’s not dead 😄 though it will take a while for it to be more than a sprout, and it will never have its iconic shape again

This is from 2014 in the donbass region, which russia didn’t approach until 2022.

It may take 200 years, but it will happen. Not only because every empire falls, but also because you can’t just get away with bullying your neighbors forever. Someday the wind will turn
