I think you are still allowed to be that. Saying you are against facism (member of antifa) gets you on terrorist watch lists though.

she’s an absolutely terrible human being. But no one can say she was a prostitute, or you get sued. Definitely not a high priced prostitute.

Well as long as we still have enough money to buy weapons for that one particular filthy genocider country in the middle east, we’re fine.

So this is the terminator consciousness so many people are scared will kill us all…

They think the shooter was trans, but I’d bet real money that when the find the shooter its going to be a right winger. It almost always is. Dems draw the line at talking about being angry.

Look what you made me do, I’ve opened a bottle of very good pinot to ponder these things.

I expect the NRA will stage a gunshow at a nearby site someplace in the next few days, right? Its what they do for school shootings and this was at a school. So Kirk’s fam can stock up on cheap ammo.

Have you even sent your thoughts and prayers yet?

they always did, even back in college.

googles EMEA division is 29% of profits. So figure about 30B profits.

googles net profit is 115 billion/year. So while 3.5 is inconvenient, I imagine google feels that its just the cost of doing business in the EU.

2022-2024 were the most normal and stable years of my life.

Maybe stable for you, but the rest of the world wont leave your world alone. Defund and reallocate happened in those years. The genocide of Palestinians under a Dem president using your tax dollars started in 2023. And Ukraine was invaded in 2022.

2017-2021 was Trump, so I think it started earlier. Was it maybe more like US election season 2016 as the start of it? It’s hard to pinpoint. But yes. The old US seems gone now-- Our government went from covertly corrupt to very openly so. We’re becoming Russia, and its hard to imagine ever rolling it back to who we once were.

France, Britain, Germany. All as bad as the US.

No one can make a profit on people walking, so I dont understand how your point makes any sense.

edit: oh wait! footware and sports drink companies. OK, well, you’ve made some compelling points here. And we use small handed children to in America to make these shoes and sports drinks, right?

You can say the same thing about every region of the world. Why does Europe just ignore African and South American news?

You know you can start your own lemmy instance for EU centric topics right.

language barriers are a thing.

Hard agree. Its a non negotiable part of the job. I dont know that it would work to say absense of footage is evidence of wrongdoing, but its definitely enough to fire someone. Accountability would keep cops in line. Currently there is VERY little real systematic accountability for cops, in any situation.
