  1. Turkey shouldn't ever be considered for the EU, and should probably be thrown out of NATO.
    451
  2. These monsters do not deserve to pass by natural causes.
    357
  3. The army chief having to retire at the age of 65 explains a whole lot. All of those limits are expelled when you become president, I presume. This narrative is barely mentioned in the international news.
    270
  4.  @cosuinofdeath  Watch the video.
    233
  5. Based France. This is what every civilized country ought to do if they want to preserve their values and stability. Limitless tolerance never works.
    217
  6. Macron-deporting islamists, strengthening the police, and unifying the nation. Proud of this guy's recent actions.
    210
  7. The man is clinically insane. Just look at his incomprehensibly labile foreign policy. His threats issued against the rest of the world. His acts of extortion. Destabilization. No wonder why his support is decreasing.
    187
  8. PROPS to Macron for fiercely putting his foot down against these unwanted radicals. This is how a leader responds.
    179
  9. Has Indian media even reported on this? I watch WION daily and haven't heard it. How controlled or pressured is the Indian media sphere?
    168
  10. As long as there's competent officials running the plant in a secure manner and that the energy produced replaces dirty energy sources, using nuclear power is the way to go. Even the nuclear waste can be used to generate electricity if the capacity is there. But the waste has to be stored safely, and the nuclear plant can't be positioned in a place prone to natural disasters.
    150
  11. Macron's recent nationalist and pro-security standpoints couldn't have come any sooner. It's very much needed for France and for Europe's future. Glad that he's putting his foot down against individuals and values that don't belong there. Against potent high-risk threats.
    123
  12. Disgraceful that there's so many people in this comment section justifying the terrorist attacks by pointing fingers at perceived injustices and transgressions in the past by France or its allies. When these sort of people exist, sustained peace and stability will never be reached.
    112
  13. I feel so bad for the innocent people having to live in these unstable geographical locations where landslides, tsunamis, intense storms and cataclysms is the norm. I hope assistance is delivered rapidly so the affects residents and places can recover ASAP. God bless you Philliphines
    111
  14. Much respect to Lee Hsien Loong and his beautiful country of Singapore. The world would be a much better place if more countries adjusted their societal model to Singapore.
    110
  15. Nawww, innocent little cats don't deserve ending up in the trash. Glad that it got saved and a warm home to stay at.
    93
  16. Months of continued mask use and restrictions even though most of the population is vaccinated? Wow, not sure how anyone can buy into that.
    84
  17. Preventing foreign individuals from voting is a smart scheme. It prevents radical or drastic changes in the political system, ensures that the citizens who've over generations lived and deeply taken part of Swiss culture can make political changes, and prevents destabilization. Every country should do this. Switzerland are in many ways conservative in areas where it matters.
    76
  18. Such a humble and respectable man with a great political platform. We need this type of PM here in Sweden, desperately.
    71
  19. In California, of course. The Democratic sanctuary has never had a good track record in dealing with crime, extremists or people with poor conduct.
    71
  20. Swede here. I wish we could be a little more like the Swiss. Direct democracy and referendums on every important issue would most definitely ensure that stability, unification and peace is upheld while politicians work to serve the people rather than the opposite. Sadly, we've gone a different route.
    71
  21. New Zealand has dominated the news cycle the past year though. The NZ terrorist shooting back last year, the ban on assault rifles and gun control laws, and their commendable response to the coronavirus. NZ are far from forgotten :')
    70
  22. Erdogan is a madman and needs to be removed from the global discourse and political scene. He's a threat to stability and peace.
    64
  23. His parents probably heard about some European dictators and thought Hitler sounded cool, so they thought that they should adopt the name. I'd guess that's the level of logic and analysis that we're dealing with.
    62
  24. And who are the losers? Well, apart from Iran and Saudi Arabia wasting money and sanity on pointless conflicts, Europe tends to have to deal with the massive refugee streams from many of these sponsored conflicts.
    60
  25. Give him another nobel peace prize, as in tradition 😂
    60
  26. Good on the Swiss people. Adopting religious symbols that opposes one's cultural values, oppresses women and is used to cater to men without self-control, is irrational. Good that they're banning the usage of it. But I'm sure backwards EU courts and NGOs will claim that the legislation is illegal and a HR violation. I hope Switzerland doesn't back down though.
    60
  27. Yep. Or just take the Chinese approach and adopt their strict assimilation policy..and we wouldn't be having this discussion! ;)
    59
  28. He keeps talking about the government and their partners of crime without acknowledging his own party's and movement's crimes which led to the crackdown in the first place
    58
  29. Germany are backtracking now after having opened up their borders to individuals who've raped young German girls, formed terror cells, and plundered the state. That's controversial to say, but undisputably true. Good that the German state are taking these dangers seriously. We need this approach to be applied in every European country.
    56
  30. Strange how this guy manages to stay alive for so long. He's essentially a walking balloon waiting to blow up.
    54
  31. Josh is such a great host. Stylish, eloquent and brilliant in explaining things. Smart diversification of the channel.
    52
  32. His wife sounds insane from the reports I've heard. No wonder why people are skeptical regarding her claims and irregularities. Also unfortunate to see that some prominent and well-respected actors having their life turned upside down like this.
    50
  33. Quite shameless indeed. Anything to protect the motherland and national image, no matter if lies and fabrications are required. Wonder where the source of inspiration comes from ;)
    45
  34. RIP. I hope this doesn't take too hard on the queen. She's very fragile and has a heavy heart.
    43
  35. At least conservatives have some form of decency intact and a sense for what's right or wrong, while liberals celebrates every form of depravity, act of murder and crime.
    42
  36. Saudi Arabians and the Arab world as a whole are very much in favor of sharia law and fundamentalist islam. However, the federal state/monarchs in these countries has opened up to tourism and foreign investments to attract cash and diversity because oil is running out. Its people are forced to like it, even if these measures infringes upon the uncompromised religious values.
    42
  37. Black Hitler would make Hitler turn in his grave. Or in the sky, he's cremated.
    41
  38. Yup. The people were brainwashed by most media institutions to vote him in. The popularity contest took precedent, while the irregularities and foreign interference in the election wasn't investigated. Now we see the consequences by this.
    40
  39. Thank you for your well-needed service, Dog.
    39
  40. I doubt Russian authorities would manage to poison an agent who managed to reveal classified details about the Navalny poisoning after being deceived by a randomized non-agent. Just listen to how laughable that sounds. If this level of incompetence prevails within the inner intelligence service circles in Russia, perhaps the country shouldn't be as feared as it is.
    38
  41. This is a disgusting practise. Waste of money, waste of beauty, and damage inflicted upon yourself. Many who've had plastic surgery will be seeing loose, saggy and damaged skin/lips in due time. Pain isn't uncommon either. Many regret it. Might as well ban the unnatural pseudo-intervention.
    38
  42. Iraq needs to drain the swamp, root out corruption, crush terrorism, and start to rebuild the country with the right monetary and fiscal policies. With a rule encouraging education and unification. Religious dogmatism is partially what led to its downfall. Pope's messaging may be peaceful, but it won't make a change for the better.
    38
  43. Venice hasn't been hitting that sweet spot the past years. They're either in a state of flooding or dry canals.
    37
  44. I'm no fan of China's foreign policy, militarism, expansionism and support of rogue socialist states such as North Korea, but you can't go in and sanction a leader and a country just because you disagree with their domestic politics. That's unacceptable and will just spark deeper and deeper conflicts, trade wars and possibly war.
    35
  45. Poverty still exists. Absolute poverty seems to have been eradicated, and is aligned with the fact that tens of millions of Chinese has been lifted from poverty the past decades. That's not to say that everything in the country works wonders and that everything is solved. Far from it. But this is a step in the right direction.
    35
  46. "Just following orders," hah, classic. Wondering why it takes to long to solve the disputes and problems in this area.
    35
  47. Russian authorities and their spies has a tendency to fail and make mistakes during their operations. Many have been exposed. Remember when Navalny pretended to work at FSB to receive details about the assassination attempt against him? The incompetence seem to run deep.
    35
  48. Many women are appointed through affirmative action, discriminatory policy and feminist preferences. That's unacceptable and should result in punishments. One's attributes and qualifications should be the only factors used for appointment. Does any honorable individual object to that? I doubt it.
    35
  49. I remember when Bangladeshi people went out to riot and scream when Macron said that he'd fight islamic terrorism in Europe a few months ago. Beheadings of fabricated Macron statues were staged. Actually insane. The country is very radicalized and focuses on all the wrong issues. I mean, the illiteracy and poverty rate is staggering in Bangladesh. Perhaps countering that should be prirotizied.
    34
  50. Imagine letting a flying mini-robot trespass into your sovereign nation without immediately destroying it.
    34
  51. 9:55 here's when the military parade is getting interesting. Lots of flashy and powerful weapons there.
    34
  52. I've always had such huge respect for Singapore. They're flawless in almost every single way. The world ought to adjust to their societal model. Congratulations, Singaporeans.
    34
  53. Qatar could afford it because it's one of the countries with the highest income per capita on earth.
    34
  54. He probably means that all of the natural gas imports to Romania are from Russia. Not that natural gas is their only source of energy.
    34
  55. You, arguably, have a right to apply for asylum in the first safe country that you enter. Travelling from safe country to safe country until you reach the UK, Sweden or other generous countries is not a right, and will therefore be prohibited in many cases. EU are actually breaking their own laws and conventions by accepting this type of migration. The Dublin convention, for example.
    33
  56. Let's abolish religion altogether without going communist and we'd save ourselves a whole lot of trouble.
    33
  57. Want peace? Prepare for war. But let's not strive for peace by creating another nuclear arms race...
    33
  58.  @michaelrose2443  Eww. That's a depraved lie to peddle.
    32
  59. And BBC will probably focus on silencing the language used to accurately describe why this happened, what type of person this likely was, and what measures should be implemented to rectify our societal flaws. Wouldn't be surprising at least, since they censored a Faulty Towers episode recently, and never brings up certain contentious perspectives when these 'accidents' occurs.
    32
  60. Liberals loves welcoming in threats to signal how open they are. Welcoming in lions and tigers and acting surprised when the predators starts to use their sharpened claws and deadly teeth.
    32
  61. The arab spring completely failed. Goes to show how ineffective protests tend to be if the country is governed by a centralized authoritarian state, or if the people don't even know what they want. Just look at Tunisia. Sure, they got their beloved democracy, but the country is worse off than before when looking at economic growth, jobs available, and stability.
    31
  62. Cutting in line, risking your life, and committing a crime shouldn't be encouraged and won't ever solve the core of the issue in my opinion
    31
  63. 20 years of attempting to destroy the Taliban and its previous/future rule, to now giving concessions and letting a new generation of the Taliban start to rule once again. This is far from promising.
    31
  64. Exactly right. Abandon the weakness, sickness and virtue signalling...and PROTECT your people at all costs. Does Poland and Hungary have issues with indecency, crime and terrorism? No. That's why these countries proactive policies of nationalist migration policy, closed borders, a strong police force/law enforcement, deterring penalties and legislation that upholds the country's stability, is supported by the majority of the people. Yet EU and more of Europe demonizes this nations. It's pathetic.
    31
  65. Mixing a bunch of prescriptions, alcohol and related substances tend to result in neutralizing outcomes or amplified side-effects. Not surprising.
    30
  66. Turkey is an Islamic theocracy at this point, whipping up nationalist blindness. None of these corrupt and weird intervention by the state should be surprising.
    29
  67. And this is worth reporting on why?
    29
  68. If the Saudi coalition stops bombing Yemen, the Houthis will continue terrorizing the Yemeni population, destroy cities, hold people/ships/areas hostage to extort the rest of the world, and exacerbate the crisis. The government in Yemen is also threatened by the rebels. Strange that it takes so long to take them out.
    28
  69. Most countries has had enough of migration and needs to take care of their own business, people, and life. Building up these individuals broken home countries and sweeping away the ideologies/convictions that caused this mess in the first place should be the priority.
    28
  70. Very.
    28
  71. @L ? "M", lol. Good term to bypass the filters. It sounds like a ticking bomb, or TNT.
    28
  72. Alibaba lost like $8b this morning, on Christmas Eve, after the investigation into the company. What a present huh?
    28
  73. Would the world be safer and more peaceful without every nation being represented at a international organ such as the UN? Doubtful. It's sort of like a board for every country, to, mostly, strive for peace. That doesn't mean that you can intervene everywhere and do whatever a few countries wants.
    27
  74.  @kafkakos3618  You literally held a referendum a few years ago...
    27
  75. Biden doesn't mind. Although he's got camps in place to handle those trespassing into the country. But at the same time, he has stated that he'll open up the country to pretty much anyone. That's why we see a surge and long march of individuals from central america.
    27
  76. I mean, Iran managed to shoot down their own people travelling in a harmless commercial plane, they're sponsoring terrorism globally and are not exactly considered as a developed and advanced country. Wouldn't be surprising if these fires and irregularities due to sheer unprofessionalism.
    27
  77. Italy's got everything. Flooding, stormy weather, volcanoes, harsh corona outbreaks, economic crises resulting in assistance from the EU, but still a very dynamic and lively society. Hope they don't suffer too badly from this.
    27
  78. Never forget how the Pakistani populace responded to the 9/11 attacks: "A 2004 Pew poll found that 65% of Pakistanis viewed Osama Bin Laden favorably." Governments officials and politicians realized how horrible this looks for the country and their position internationally, so they try to align themselves slightly with Western consensus on terrorism and justice. But only to a limited degree. Many Islamists has big roles in the Pakistani government and the government appeals to radical extremists looking to strengthen blasphemy laws and condemn western leaders for deporting fundamentalist threats.
    27
  79. The trafficking, perversion, abuse and tacky behavior shown on these sites does probably justifies prohibition of pornography as a whole. The liberal world won't be willing to go that far though. But it probably should. The content may be inviting to some, but the long-term mental state, health effects, view of relationships, perverted interests, exposure to children, and shady industry around it, is far from inviting.
    27
  80. Finland is really not a bad country either though. The country tops most international lists along with Estonia, Switzerland, Norway, and some others.
    27
  81. Cmon, don't back down. Say it
    27
  82. Are 25% of indians not literate? That sounds like an insane figure for a country with over 1 billion individuals.
    27
  83. If nobody, not even the government, can protect you, self-defense is apt. Letting lawless militias steamroll you and your entire community isn't acceptable to any person looking to survive and live in peace.
    26
  84. Haven't heard from him in quite some time. But ye, when he strikes down on unwanted conduct/criminals/traitors, the world wakes up.
    26
  85.  @richardkent9275  The "great reset" isn't a thing. It's some foolish slogan expressed by those not caring about the pandemic. Even if there's a "reset", in order to adjust to handle flaws, that'd be positive.
    26
  86. Al Jazeera will be happy. Maybe that's why they haven't released a news piece for the past 14 hours for some reason. Celebrations!
    26
  87. Yup. Many are forced by their family or the state to wear garments to prevent 'provoking men's sexual desires' and to appear as decent as possible (the latter can be reached without wearing this clothing). Oppression and control is what the niqab and burqa symbolizes. How can anyone support that unless they're an indoctrinated fundamentalist or just a naive tolerance preacher?
    26
  88. There's many rogue states with completely deranged leaders out there. Turkey is definitely standing out though for their shameless self-centered adventures that jeopardizes global peace and prevents stability, especially in Europe.
    26
  89. Every terrorist. Every criminal. Every person that don't respect civilized values. Everyone should adopt their approach against the biggest threats to Europe. But it's a bit unfortunate that France dropped the bill that would've protected the police and prevented harassment/doxxing of officers and their families. That bill was needed, but France had to back down after pressure from french citizens and interests abroad. At least for now. Generally though, be like France.
    26
  90. We don't need emotionally manipulative media reports on migration crises. That may result in the public perception that we need to open up our borders again and repeat the massive mistake taken by Europe 2015, something that the continent still is suffering from today. What should be focused on instead is action to prevent destabilization on a global scale. Policies that results in thriving and livable conditions everywhere, rather than letting every country experience the root of the problem by the poverty and questionable values being proliferated everywhere.
    25
  91. Kyi and her colleagues are charged for sedition by the military. Pot calling the kettle black 🤣
    25
  92. So Bosnia is basically suffering from the same flaws that the majority of Africa (and many parts of the world) are suffering from. Corruption, mismanagement, poor economic policy and hostilities that may lead to border/ethnic disputes. A shame.
    25
  93. Interesting how quickly a country and its religious believers can abandon religious principles huh? I've never heard of anyone suggesting cremation for health- or safety concerns related to the pandemic. Is there any validity to these claims? Can't find any information online.
    25
  94. Most women are looking for comfort, security and protection by a strong partner that can ensure the family's welfare, provide financially, and deter threats. That's why it's difficult for women to fall in love and stay with individuals that on the surface appears as short gnomes or dwarves. It's unfortunate for those that obviously can't change the characteristics they were born with, but that's the biological fact of the matter and the tough reality.
    25
  95. Looked it up quickly: "Sea foam forms when dissolved organic matter in the ocean is churned up. Algal blooms are one common source of thick sea foams. When large blooms of algae decay offshore, great amounts of decaying algal matter often wash ashore. Foam forms as this organic matter is churned up by the surf." Stormy weather in combination of lots of waste/algae blooms were must've exacerbated the creation of foam in no time.
    25
  96. What psycho is contaminating letters, items and sources that other individuals may touch? What maniac is spitting on officers? These 'people' should be charged on biological terrorism charges. Disgraceful that these sort of individuals exists.
    25
  97. Incoming mass debt and defaulting on these debts.
    24
  98. EU has trusted and depended way too much on Turkey. Billions in aid has been sent. Millions of refugees are housed in Turkey. They're a NATO member, yet it behaves like a selfish brat, a rogue state that thinks that it can do whatever it wants without ramifications. Such countries are a danger to the globe.
    24
  99. Losing one's taste and sense of smell is almost like losing one's vision/hearing. So much is integrated around consuming tasty food products to enjoy ourselves. Another reason why the pandemic and its side-effects should be taken very seriously.
    24
  100. Side-note: These petty and pointless removals of characters, scenes and harmless depictions that nobodyin their right mind sees discriminatory will only result in an increase of "racism" and backlash from activists that sees the undesirable agenda behind these moves.
    24
  101. The Houthis were recently designated as terrorists by USA. Perhaps that'll have some effect. Houthis are those responsible, and Iran, for the insurgency and civil war in Yemen.
    23
  102. Djibouti ranks 16 of 54 when looking at GDP per capita per African country. High unemployment and widespread poverty seems to still be an issue even though it ranks quite high. Will a continuation of the current lead be enough to make a positive change? hmm.
    23
  103. This guy's supporters and beliefs seems extreme. Just look at what his supporters did a week ago, attacked a police station, burned down cars and acted aggressively. Gathered during a pandemic (typical for religious and indoctrinated people who thinks that praying the disease away works). Might be time to jail those involved?
    23
  104. Nobody but some self-serving capitalists benefits by speculating on these real estate markets. Purchasing a bunch of property and houses that you'll never use, decrease the supply/increase the demand, and inflate the prices, is such a counterproductive scheme. You don't want to intervene on the market, but there may be some exceptions where you must do so.
    23
  105. This strike isn't done by Yemen....Yemen's government are on the Saudis side. The terrorists in Yemen started the civil war by attempting to violently overthrow the government. The government received assistance by the Saudis and their allies to wipe out the insurgents.
    23
  106. Biden's foreign policy; Interference abroad where it fits and a 4 year continuation of global tensions. He's criticized Trump for pulling back troops. Trump's attempts of cancelling the endless wars. Lots to come.
    23
  107. People die all the time in Chad due to how violent the country is. The army is probably provided with many benefits and merits, so I doubt they'd need to shoot the president just to retrieve power. The rebels likely took him out instead. He's been a president for 30 years, I presume his army and associates would've taken him out long ago if they wished to do so.
    23
  108. Burning down one's own property and resources instead of working out this dispute...what a complete waste. Another meaningless conflict causing horrible consequences.
    23
  109. What's the point of a vaccine passport if you still can contract and transmit the virus even if you're vaccinated and "immune"? It seems like you'll be safe by vaccination due to not being able to develop symptoms. But those around you can still catch the virus from you, if you're infected. The transmission rate does decrease a little, however.
    23
  110. Making bank in a capitalist system by suggesting that we should abolish the capitalist system. Supporting criminals and blaming the law-abiding. These wine-sipping anarchists and socialists are so despicable.
    23
  111. Good. Were WION critical when Obama pardoned thousands of criminal thugs and addicts?
    23
  112. Hope it doesn't mutate to a point where the vaccines becomes moot.
    23
  113. You don't need to apologize to a rogue war criminal whom excuses terrorism and threatens Europe when he don't get his way, for referring to him by the improper name. Just a heads up ;)
    23
  114. Why are they not being deported? Why is migration routes open during the pandemic? Why isn't Eurupe closed?
    23
  115. Australia are looking for fairness and China to be held accountable for what they've done to the world (destabilizing the West, taking over self-governing countries territory, illegally extracting resources at sea next to Ecuador, and by negligence and censorship RELEASING the coronavirus). Why encourage a trade war and stand behind China in this case? Makes no sense.
    22
  116. I'm all for breaking up unhealthy monopolies, but I doubt the sports or football industry will improve by this greedy move. The teams will just become more split and potentially decrease the competitiveness because of the mixed leagues.
    22
  117. What a sweetie the female doctor is 😊 0:22
    22
  118. Well that's a fascinating view by the Tunisian populace. They're longing for the policies and structures that prevailed prior to the Arab spring, because at least security and some sort of hope could be seen back then. Tunisia, the only country that managed to change a leadership after the protests back in 2010, is in other words a failed country full of unemployment and chaos 10 years later. While in Libya, Syria and Yemen, the worst humanitarian crisis in modern times arose. Is protesting always the answer when you don't know what you want nor what you need? Something to think about.
    22
  119. We have a similar situation in Sweden. The politicians have downplayed the virus, not listened to the science, made fun of mask usage, and done all they could to avoid shutting things down. Our state epidemiologists and virologists has guessed their way through this pandemic like complete fraudsters. We have a per capita death rate equivalent to like ~3x as bad as the Nordic countries combined.
    22
  120. Heck that is cold. This is how leaders stay relatable, and in power. Pander to the people through your own action, and use the controlled medias as a propagandist megaphone. One reason as to why Putin is so popular in Russia.
    22
  121. This is a test. Taking the temperature of the Biden administration and how they'll respond to these military drills.
    22
  122. A centrist doesn't call moderate republicans "Voldemort & vampires". Good that she was voted down.
    22
  123. Ignorance, desperation, lack of education and a failed state. There's many factors that breeds communists.
    22
  124. Private arms manufacturers, security providers, and companies providing mercenaries abroad shouldn't be permitted in a way that could jeopardize a country's own foreign policy or hinder global peace. I don't see why a company like Blackwater has this amount of influence.
    22
  125. Perhaps the country should stop promoting religion and revolutionary tendencies, along with creating more a stable state of affairs by creating societal stability, economic stability, and rooting out corruption. One thing's for sure, something drastic has to be done to counter the alarming trend of innocent schoolchildren being abducted and mass casualties occurring by the frequent acts of terror by radicalized religious rebels.
    21
  126. Rest in peace to the fallen patriots 😢
    21
  127.  @Crescent-IV  Well, this man isn't just all talk. He leads and has built up a powerful country where the people are safe and satisfied.
    21
  128. Did Trudeau struggle as much as the viewers to hear what Boris Johnson was saying?
    21
  129. "A coup" "Sent armed goons" >Blames Trump >Endorses tech censorship What's wrong with WION's journalists?
    21
  130. Most people (~95%) becomes fully immunized by the vaccine. The side-effects of the vaccine are negligible and uncomparable to the side-effects of the pandemic itself. But the conspiracy theorists can't think that far.
    21
  131. Uh oh..expect people to be forced to stay inside at gunpoint and under 24/7 surveillance.
    21
  132. The moral of this story is to avoid any airline controlled by Indonesian authorities or private entrepreneurs from the country. The country has a flawed history when it comes to aircraft maintenance, security and oversight. The weather can be tricky to handle as well. More deaths has been recorded in Indonesia's airspace the past decade than any other airspace on earth. Don't need an online tracker to conclude this ;)
    20
  133. Seems a little sketchy that the Chinese controlled the flow of information and where the analytical team could visit. But we all know that WHO are represented by the Chinese themselves, to a large extent.
    20
  134. Every country would be able to hold these concerts, performances and celebrations if they early on enforced disciplinary and thorough measures to prevent the spread of the virus. A weak and slow response results in a prolonged challenge of having to deal with this pandemic.
    20
  135. >talks about people not understanding the political compass >conflates fascism with authoritarian socialism/communism. Belarus' dictator is closer to being a socialist/communist dictator than anything else. Sure, he may have "fascist" elements, but fascism is a political ideology with a traditional policy on social issues, and is positioned to the right on most issues. Why publish misleading characterizations?

  136.  @EoRdE6  You'd think that there'd exist technology that could mitigate or prevent icy roads from establishing itself in the 21st century, to decrease the number of crashes.
    20
  137. 300 virgin rebels were slaughtered by the army full of Chads yesterday. The Chad president decided to showcase that he indeed is Chad on the battlefield, but was downgraded to a virgin accordingly. A risk which wasn't worth taking. Jokes aside, RIP!
    20
  138. India has a huge pharma industry. Investments during a pandemic are therefore in order, more than every before.
    20
  139. A rape in the Australian parliament? How the heck could that happen and who in their right mind could even think of that? Seems so improbable. Are there no surveillance cameras in the chamber?
    20
  140. Yep. Biden campaigned on bringing an end to the Trump migration policy. Biden managed to complete that goal. The result? The worst border crisis in decades. The result of that? Biden started to reimplement Trump-era policies again. What a joke
    20
  141. I wonder how many doctors are doing all they can right now to prolong Kim's life. He's a heavy smoker, eats a ton and barely exercises. Like a ticking bomb ready to explode and accordingly die. Will his doctors as in tradition be tortured once he dies?
    20
  142.  @damiankomputerowiec8630  So is your solution to socialdemocratic and the welfare state Spain's economic problem is an increase in socialism? Punishing capitalists, the innovative and those that adds jobs/skills to the market will only worsen the economic situation. Do you as many other spaniards and spanish politicians see Venezuela as a success by any chance?
    20
  143.  @drunkensailor3736  Taiwan is protected by the US and a bunch of Western allies. China wouldn't intervene there, at least not during the current state of affairs.
    20
  144. Indians: Mass dislikes the video whenever valid criticism of India or its limited military capabilities are raised by data, stats and explanations
    20
  145. This is how you optimally handle conflicts and migration streams in Africa. Provide assistance to the continent, build up health/educational/residence facilities, and let these people slowly but surely solve their own problems and build up their own country. Rather than bringing the problems to another continent, causing division.
    19
  146. Don't make the same mistake that Northern Europe has done by accepting a ton of migrants from incompatible cultures. Deportation and safeguarding the interests for your country, tourists and employees is the only humane approach. If you want, contribute to building up stable regimes and countries at these migrants own homes instead.
    19
  147. Why? Palestine rejects every single attempt of normalization and every peace deal. What's the point in continuously fighting and bashing each other then? To satisfy depraved primitive instincts?
    19
  148. At least she isn't a socialist, and has a plan to establish stability in Europe and Moldova. That's promising, and preferred over the alternatives.
    19
  149. It's in these sort of areas where workers rights', labor laws and market conditions should be improved. Nobody should be left in the dark like this, fearing for their future and not cared for.
    19
  150. Isn't Russia supposed to be strong, in favor of law & order? Why aren't the state sending cops or military officials to eliminate these problematic thugs?
    19
  151. This is literally a corresponding version of the replacement theory that some people use in order to advocate for the preservation of certain races and demographics. But it's fine because this group is near extinction, right?
    19
  152. Why should Australian news companies receive special privileges by Google and Facebook? These news bureaus already receive traction and advertisement by existing on Google and Facebook. Why force the hosts to pay for content that they don't really need?
    19
  153. The intelligence and knowledge that the person seems to have had is too advanced for him to have been a basic religion of peace lover. He managed to stay hidden for decades and deceive the world. Uneducated extremists/jihadists wouldn't have managed such a task.
    19
  154. Taiwan is virus-free, managed the coronavirus pandemic well, and produces products that are of higher quality than most of China's. No wonder why China would accuse Taiwan of spreading a plague or not meeting safety standards on food produce when China has it out for Taiwan. When a military takeover of the island is on the horizon, within the CCP's plans.
    19
  155. The greatest corrupt, obese and unhealthy leader out there. The greatest power abuser.
    19
  156. Egypt's cultural heritage and all their ancient creations is truly amazing. So many impressive structures and historical stories from the country.
    18
  157. Free speech and freedom is only tolerated when it comes to the Putin regime and his cohorts. Outside of that circle, a quasi-dictatorship is applied.
    18
  158. "I'm no longer afraid of the coronavirus, just look around, there's people on the beach living healthily" This is why we need better education and stronger authorities that picks up these backwards people to rectify their flawed way of thinking.
    18
  159. Lol why...? Be proud. They're cherishing good moral values and every life is being protected. The abortion laws are a little too strict, but at least they're on the right track as opposed to almost every single Western country who don't mind murder.
    18
  160. Yep, kinda insensitive considering that China's negligence and state censorship resulted in the rapid spread. That they're out partying now and making fun of the bleeding world as if it's one big harmless joke. Tacky. But it's difficult to deny that China managed the pandemic well once the leadership took it seriously.
    18
  161. What's the requirement to be a good leader? Bashing Pakistan on Indian news channels? 😏
    18
  162. Good. We don't need painful ritualistic slaughter that hurts animals for no reason other than satisfying a twisted tradition. If that isn't liked, move back to a country that you're able to resort to these questionable traditions.
    18
  163. This is why it's hard to take some of this coronavirus data seriously. A 60%+ increase from Mexico out of the blue. Insane.
    18
  164.  赵杨利Yang lee Zhao  Japan are allied with countries that have the most powerful militaries on earth. China wouldn't dare challenging that, which is why the country still is in check.
    18
  165. We all know that US are hypocrites. Many countries are. But human rights shouldn't and don't apply to criminals, those threatening the police, and those engaging in grave misconduct in the public, as we saw here. Look into the situation before commenting. The police did, as per usual, the right thing here.
    18
  166. Does the Somalian government have so little control over these rebel militias? Are untraceable terror cells conducting these horrible operations? It keeps on happening in this part of the world, with mass casualties and the blood from innocent individuals pouring down...
    18
  167. Lol. Somalia is one of the most illiterate, backwards, undeveloped and poor countries on earth with a bunch of cultural issues that you wouldn't want to hear about, engraved into the system. The advanced world only "fears" this nation in that they're afraid of their countries being dragged down to a similar stagnated level if they cooperate or open up towards Somalia. Hilarious that people buy into the propaganda that tries to idealize a broken country like Somalia. Deluded.
    17
  168. Another despicable crime committed in the name of religion.
    17
  169. Every tech giant that stifles innovation/competition and that prevents the important existence of free speech should be sanctioned harshly.
    17
  170. Good. Scary full-covered garnments signalling opression/control, schools where religious radicalization is the norm, and the acceptance of doctrines that don't belong in the modern world, should be restricted by the state. Props to Sri lanka for doing what it takes to protect their population and cherish prosperous values.
    17
  171. What else are you expecting, an air strike against Saudi oil facilities? Nah, that's the type of illegal tactics that the Houthis are up to. USA wouldn't sink that low. The response by USA has to be somewhat proportional.
    17
  172. Much respect to the Cuban people trying to overthrow communism and create a sensible, thriving society for everyone. I wish them the best. Nobody should have to live under these poor and oppressive conditions that the corrupt Cuban leadership imposes on their own people, just to defend an old, broken and counterproductive ideology cherished by Guevara and Castro.
    17
  173.  @mdsabahuddin8251  How about stop being naive?
    17
  174. I think that's the argument that Putin may be making. "The palace was created by its tax exempt status, state funds and funds from my billionaire and does technically not belong to me." Although I haven't done much research into this building project and who the palace belongs to, so I'm not certain. But Putin isn't precisely a flawless or an honest guy.
    17
  175. Seems more like WION are being humiliated here for having a Chinese official walk out during a live session. Especially since WION itself has used the phrase for so long. Maybe that's why this happened.
    17
  176. Yeah...it's hard to trust Turkey when they've been labile, militant and hostile to everyone in their way. Drilled in the Meditterarian without taking into account that the maritime rules applies to Turkey as well. Taken over northern Syria with the Turkish military to serve their own interests. Extorted EU by sending migrants to Europe, to force EU to stand behind Turkey's expansionism and to send more aid. Turkey needs the EU more than the EU needs Turkey. NATO should kick them out and EU should continuously make sure that Turkey don't starts to further exploit their northern "partners" in Europe. No one should become dependent or let Turkey succeed in their foul ploys...unless the country and Erdogan change their mind.
    17
  177. Don't visit regimes that holds polar opposite values to you. Don't expect clemency by radical regimes. Stay neutral, stay out of trouble.
    16
  178. No, the death penalty is useful. It eliminates recidivism rates, serves justice, deters wrongdoing, and makes sure that the society is safe while valuing the victims of crime. Just make sure that no innocent people are executed.
    16
  179. Based Senegal. Keep doing what it takes to root out evil.
    16
  180. Build it for t_D and to preserve America!

  181. There'll always be inevitable contact between people if you don't place out any restrictions or quarantien measures. While shopping, practising activities, hobbies, etc.
    16
  182. The civilized world are laughing at us for punishing our own guardians and protectors.
    16
  183.  @neptune4212  He's insinuating that the authorities should've caught her ages ago if she "hid" in her own house..it's not precisely a good hideout spot if you're trying to avoid getting caught. Perhaps no attempts of arrest or raids were initiated, which is strange.
    16
  184. Communist states doing whatever they wish out of the blue for reasons that barely enrich the people, is expected.
    16
  185. Iran, the mini North Korea with stronger capacities that Joe Biden will turn a blind eye to by starting up negotiations full of concessions. Not a promising future.
    16
  186. It's already happening, figuratively. Pakistan are basically screaming, complaining, and berating countries for fighting domestic terrorism. Sending back non-existent envoys from countries fighting domestic terrorism. Implementing tariffs/suspending trade for the same reason. Letting a deranged militant movement dictate societal policy in Pakistan, etc.
    16
  187. I don't really like Google, but Australia is the country that started this whole dispute. Why should Australian news corporations receive special treatment and revenue by Google because Google hosts their content in a way that actually benefits these news corporations? Makes no sense.
    15
  188. South Africa and its state has literally expropriated property and farmland from white farmers, forced them out of the country and attacked them in many cases based on race as "payback" for apartheid. Yet black students allegedly not being invited to certain meetings (does educational results and grades perhaps have to do with it rather than race) is of highest concern, and the main priority by many of these protesters. Weird.
    15
  189. Imagine protesting like a desperate creature to legalize industrialized murder. These instincts is a defect within humanity and should be forbidden. Dehumanization and removal of innocent babies shouldn't be tolerated.
    15
  190. US senators hates rising taxes for their favorite donors and corporations. They hate holding those who should be held accountable, accountable.
    15
  191. Good start huh, Biden.
    15
  192. Nigeria needs to apply Myanmar's and China's approaches against terrorism. No tolerance& uncompromising crackdowns against the areas ruled by or where these militants are mobilized. Expect the ICC, EU, NA, and NGOs to call you out for neutralizing terrorists, but that's a 'price' that you have to pay.
    15
  193. We're all aware of Duterte's zero tolerance platform. Has it been effective? Are there any better candidates?

  194. kidnaps and pays for the kidnapping of a Rwandan dissident Rwandan president: The flight was flawless Attorney general: I think the Rwandan president meant that the flight was flawless Oh god.. 😂
    15
  195. Nobody should have to change religion to enter marriage. IF such a threshold have to be met, you know that there's undesired and dangerous values involved that governments ought to restrict. Good on India here, I say. But, no innocent person should be targeted, of course.
    15
  196.  @zlonewolf  Biden banned deportations. Changed the direction in the immigration department. Signalled that he'd open up the border, let more people in, and provide asylum/citizenship to millions. That resulted in this crisis. Do some research.
    15
  197. One of the few policies that Xi Jinping has gotten right is the security law imposed in Hong Kong to uphold order, remove vandals and punish those that can't behave in a legal manner. If you've followed the anti-government movement, you'll be aware that it's irrational, especially the demands, and that the destruction caused by the movement is completely unacceptable by anyone's standards. Something had to be done, and the move is supported by the majority of Hong Kongers.
    15
  198. In actuality, I think everyone wants a system of absolute monarchy if the monarch enforced the exact ideals that one personally agrees with. The right values would be incorporated, things would be dealt with immediately rather than waiting months for all the checks and balances to check out, and division would be rare. Corruption and abuse of power are of course always tangible risks with these political systems though.
    15
  199. Hopefully communist party officials.
    14
  200. If you purchase unverified and randomized medical prescriptions or vaccines on the black market from some shady salesman/network, you've got yourself to blame. Sure, the authorities can and will crackdown on these markets, but people have to think for themselves when making these dangerous decisions.
    14
  201. That's what happens when a regressive and violent political group has had too much influence over a country. Afghanistan may take several steps back again if the Taliban manages to retake control the incoming years. We'll see.
    14
  202. They deserve it because they responded effectively and swiftly to the pandemic, and adjusted to the crisis in one of the best ways possible.
    14
  203. Individuals such as yourself is a reason why coercion and obligatory programs instigated by a state is necessary to cull ignorance, selfishness, anti-intellectualism, and behavior that infringes upon public/global health.
    14
  204.  @kafkakos3618  Scottish people don't. The support to leave the UK and become independent hasn't changed much since the last referendum. You can't hold a referendum until you get the results that you as a politician or biased actor wants.
    14
  205. Biden's criticizing Trump's policy while enforcing Trump's policy to rectify the flaws created by Biden's policy. Nice one.
    14
  206. This money could've been used for good. To strengthen crime prevention. But nope, it's instead distributed to a crime family. Unbelievable. The west is such a joke at times.
    14
  207. Does he trust a Chinese vaccine? Hmm. I haven't heard any irregularities or hasty advancements during the development of this Chinese vaccine, so may be Sao Paolo mayor is right. Being a savior in the pandemic by vaccinating one's people is also great for credibility and political leverage.
    14
  208. IDs are required in most part of the world, including in these activists favorite countries in Europe. Confirming your identity, registering to vote and upholding election integrity is crucial and normal. If these minimal requirements impacts you, perhaps re-evaluate and think about why you can't meet these basic requirements rather than blaming the system.
    14
  209. Al Jazeera and its viewers aren't gonna like this.
    14
  210. Good choice, Ecuadorians. Congratulations on granting a decent leader the right to rule. At least compared to the revolutionary alternatives who only will bring down the country further.
    14
  211.  @sleepystrawberry8036  They tried to cooperate and calmly arrest the thug. The thug continuously resisted arrest and threatened the cops. He deserved all that was coming to him. The people defending people like this are long gone and should seek psychiatric assistance. Can't believe that this non-case blew up. A case of where the police did the complete right thing.
    14
  212. Can't be bothered playing along with these manufactured and forced news. Not even funny
    14
  213. Did you think that the US was your friend and that they respected your sovereignty? They're unpredictable and basically do whatever they want, no matter what others think. This applies to China as well.
    14
  214. When you stand up for civilized and secure values, these actors decry "islamophobia". I don't understand why these radical muslims haven't realized that the world doesn't exist to cater to a religious prophet, Sharia laws or religious scriptures. People and countries are shaped differently. These actors are trying to force the world to defend Islamic values and incorporate into their respective constitutions, such as blasphemy laws, preventing depictions of prophets, and restricting free speech to let Islamic beliefs stay intact. That's not gonna happen.
    14
  215. Who are funding, hiding and feeding these extremists? Cut off all of those lines, and they'll show themselves, or optimally, disappear.
    14
  216. These countries are truly living in the golden age. It makes sense that these gas and oil-dependent economies are putting in all effort to plan ahead, diversify the market, and prolong this golden age as long as possible by making investments. Clever move. Hope it pays off for everyone!
    14
  217. Law & order, legal documentation and making sure that no threats are within your borders, isn't something that some of these Islamic countries, Islamists and Western NGOs/actors believes in. Very naive and opportunist, if you will. It's common sense that your citizens should be tracked and documented to make sure that only law-abiding individuals are part of your country. I don't get how opposition against such basic rationality even came to be.
    14
  218. Banning Twitter for actually be more fair for everyone, since the ban would apply to everyone and prevent those with 'acceptable opinions' to sway elections and spread their agenda. I'd be on board!
    14
  219. Remove the aggressive, violent and dangerous aspects from every religion and you won't need to be assimilated.
    14
  220. Technocracy, hell yes. Hope he does well now when Italy has a recession, deficits to handle, and a skyrocketing national debt to take care of. Good luck!
    14
  221. I've always had a hard time trusting genuinely someone with a beard. Tends to have poor hygiene. Tend to have a sleazy character. It's not really associated with healthiness and physical capacities. So I can see why the army doesn't want to associate with such individuals.
    14
  222. Biden's statements about Russia and China isn't that different from how Trump used to form foreign policy.
    14
  223. 10 years later the Canary islands becomes close to inhabitable and an impopular ex-tourist attraction. Sad but true. It's a shame that smuggling and human trafficking is allowed. These individuals home countries should be built up instead.
    14
  224. She's quite impulsive. Imagine if she has/had the ability to press the red nuclear button based on emotion. WWIII would be close.
    14
  225. It's an example of diversity and Democratic leadership not being our strength. It's an example that appealing to certain groups with questionable demands and a record of bad conduct won't be effective. An example of multiculturalism without restriction not enriching us.
    14
  226. They'll probably succeed. Look at all the investment in the country, their own investments abroad/for infrastructure projects, the cooperation between Saudi Arabia and the rest of the world, opening up for tourism, and so on. Saudi Arabia isn't a poor and mismanaged country, and isn't communist, compared with Venezuela. So the countries can't really be compared.
    14
  227.  @osmanhayes3803  It's full of marxists and psychopaths that are defending criminals day in and day out. The movement provides nothing of value and should be abolished, voluntarily or by governmental force.
    14
  228. The Philipphines has been locked down strictly for quite some time, right? That's respectable and impressive by a country that still is relatively poor. Must be tough. Respect to those pulling through.
    14
  229. 110 killed? Wow... The anti-terror operations against these radicals with extreme convictions to shed blood and murder anyone in their way, mostly innocent people, should be stepped up. This can't carry on...
    13
  230. Repulsive that there's activists out there campaigning to keep these obnoxious criminals. Sadly that's what progressive leftism has become. Stand up for those that crush and destroy our country. Attack those trying to protect and strengthen our country. How did these groups ever become influential?
    13
  231. The high frequency of crime should be of highest concern for a government. This crime stands for like 99% of all the violence and ill deeds committed in this country, yet the small number of extremist violations committed by 'white supremacists' is by subtle insinuation placed at the top? Those who commits this crime tend to be liberally or left-wing oriented. And then we've got Antifa and BLM, groups who excuse this high frequency crime and resorts to political terrorism themselves by attacking cops, right-wingers and our institutions. When will journalists take their responsibility and report on these crucial areas?
    13
  232. To take advantage of the desirable and generous welfare system in Europe. Because they're looking for more and more. Many Europeans has had enough of the welcoming hospitality that we've applied for decades at the expense of the European population, stability and safety.
    13
  233. When you have the "principle of not locking down" during a pandemic, you're in for a wild ride. No wonder why the plague eventually took the country by storm.
    13
  234. Production of weapons and nuclear would happen even under an Islamic dictatorship, and an Islamic dictatorship would use such technology in a much more hurtful manner for the globe. Just take a look at most middle eastern and African countries, their rule, and what sort of society taht rebel groups in these countries are trying to create. Waste and pollution would also occur under an incompetent, uneducated and religious-based/instinctive leadership ending up desperate because they can't govern a country or an economy, such as the Taliban. Kidnapping/torture/forcing people to adopt, are an engraved part of these Islamic values as well. Way worse than in most Western countries. So there's lots of inaccurate assumptions in that post, Caring, that should be edited or redacted if you cared about feedback. I don't think you do, but at least those reading will get more of an accurate view of what's going on. As a final note, I don't think we should force Western democracy upon anyone. But we shouldn't allow militias and islamic fundamentalists willing to kill off and torture people to create a regime that won't benefit their people ore humanity. The Taliban must be stopped, as every person with an ounce of humanity believes.
    13
  235. I'm sure the deportation parties will strengthen their presence when these ungrateful 'activists' are out complaining about nothing to divide and humiliate the Dutch people.
    13
  236. Nana Akufo-Addo is the only guy that seems to have relatively decent moral values judging by the difference between the two parties ideologies. Liberal conservatism vs. socialism. The former is the only sensible option.
    13
  237. Literally nothing changes just because you replace a UN representative based on gender. Instead of dwelling on identity politics and symbolic platitudes, why not offer real and concrete solutions to societal issues?
    13
  238. Nearly fell asleep during the speech. Had too high expectations I guess. He just repeated the old talking points about that we're in a crisis and that a response is coming. His response to the virus has been alright, admittedly, but he isn't unifying the country. He isn't handling the border crisis. He's not answering questions.
    13
  239. The amount of conspiracies that people have used to defy vaccination is laughable lol. Quite insane when you think about it. Especially when you know what the alternative is, a prolonged pandemic. These vaccines are proven to be safe and harmless. The potential side-effects that could arise outweighs the alternative risk of letting the virus wreak havoc for sure.
    13
  240. "criticism"?
    13
  241. Yet USA are miles better on many parameters (social issues aside) compared with the rest of world, when it comes to economic power, influence, military strength, standards of living and stability. Think about how low the rest of the world stands with this in mind.
    13
  242. Yet the examiner, or teacher (FBI), will receive most the credit I imagine. 😏
    13
  243. Probably. It's foolish and a waste of life. You know that religious fundamentalism has gone too far when public health gets jeopardized. When medicine distribution and usage is prevented on superstitious grounds. It's a threat to the world.
    13
  244. Imagine passing legislation based on a convicted criminal who've threatened, abused, held pregnant women at gunpoint, and abused drugs throughout his entire life. What a disgrace
    13
  245. Tasteless. But it signals that lockdowns and totalitarian control works.
    13
  246. "Women rights activists" advocating for the legal ability to eradicate innocent life, behave dirtily and promiscuous inclinations along with receiving no consequences, and by attempting to build up a senseless society. These cold individuals don't deserve to be called women rights activists. That concept and phrase has already been tarnished long ago, but let's not suggest that it's a right to kill.
    13
  247. When you've had restrictions, mask mandates and a high infection rate for months, a decrease in the transmission rate is not strange. It's not exactly rocket science lol
    13
  248.  @ball123ball123ball  Because we're so used to these minorities committing all the crimes to a point where we've been detached and desensitized. And every fool has bought into the idea that they commit crimes because of imaginary rayzism or oppression. Every corporation pushes out this image. Every politician (almost). And the loud populace. When a white person is killed by the opposite race or when anything affect a white person, nobody cares for these aformentioned reasons. It's not part of the politically correct narrative, cruelly enough.
    13
  249.  Zakaria Elmi  Can't handle the truth huh?
    13
  250. Bring back a decent economic system and any ideology different to communism. Nepal is badly suffering from poverty, lack of opportunity and economic downturn. Something that ought to be fixed.
    13
  251. Chinese people are still Asian people...
    13
  252. Because of monopoly issues. Facebook has bought all forms of competition, sort of like Amazon and similar multinational corporations, and that is seen as shady and maybe illegal. Something that prevents small businesses from getting on the market and succeeding. I suggest looking into the story before commenting.
    13
  253. Looks fun. Very innovative. A day on the beach consisting of biking, surfing and swimming would be awesome!
    13
  254.  @grapejuiceboy  How many millions of felons voted for him? How much non-investigated fraudulent voting occurred? Why oppose audits into the election? And people still wonder why he isn't seen as legitimate...
    13
  255. Let's watch the countries and people/officials expressing sorrow for these sort of radicals. The entities expressing sympathy should be noted and sanctioned accordingly. There's no logical or reasonable grounds that a person can invoke to stand behind a horrific movement such as Al Qaeda.
    13
  256. Notice how everyone all of a sudden forgot about the pandemic throughout this crisis in Afghanistan. I haven't seen anyone questioning the risk of transporting tens of thousands of people from this country to our own.
    13
  257. By lying and using "acceptable" foreign interference for his benefits, by e.g. using funds delivered by BLM and similar organizations that foreign entities has funded.
    13
  258. The digitalized world that anyone can receive access to and thrive in is way more valuable than the ability to walk outside without ending up dirty below one's feet.
    13
  259. No, they aren't. This law has been planned for a while and would've been implemented either way. It's not even controversial if you look outside of Western media and its biased sources.What's the problem in obliterating little troublemakers? Sure, the Western world will cry "human rights", but nobody in their right mind cares about such nonsense when it's about the "rights" of criminal rioting vandals.

  260. Alibaba is controlling swathes of the e-commerce markets and search engine in Asia, is a huge part of China's national image and brings in billions of dollars annually. Kind of strange that China is looking into their own *success*, if you will, frankly.
    13
  261. If we strictly looking at ideology here, Nana Akufo-Addo's party, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), is a liberal conservative party. He's up against a socialist advocate. I'd go and vote for Addo's party here. What's the argument to support the socialist route in Ghana?
    13
  262. The reasons used to form this party and riot sounds so incredibly stupid. They're upset that France, a country in a different part of the world, decided to stand up for liberty and fight against islamic extremism. They're upset that an Islamic terrorist assassin got sentenced to death. They're upset that the blasphemy laws aren't strict enough. What is wrong with them!?!?
    13
  263. Why are so many people with manly, roid raging, and violent characteristics unable to control themselves to a point where they have to hit their married lady? This is a severe issue in most parts of the world. Especially in the fundamentalist and religious part of the world where these actions basically are legalized where the universal offenders can act with total impunity.
    12
  264. Thailand receives like ~20M annual tourists, the highest rate in the world. I wonder if it'll become like Hong Hong where the unrest destroyed public order and the economy entirely, negatively affecting the citizens, the globe's perception, and the country's status.
    12
  265. They think that "God" will reward them for killing off innocent people that they believed didn't adhere to arbitrary prescribed guidelines.
    12
  266. What a complete mess. Seems like it's never getting better in these regressive countries.
    12
  267. Even if it's "Western propaganda" (you can't unsubstantially use that term whenever you see something you don't like, that's insane), do you seriously support the current state of Cuba that has upheld poverty, oppression and misery for several decades which began by Castro's autocracy?
    12
  268. Maradona lived unhealthily, abused drugs, and had a risky lifestyle for a long time. But of course someone gotta presume foul play and blame the doctors. Investigate the journals and the doctor, sure, but put the blame where it belongs.
    12
  269. Lebanon can barely keep their own population alive. Economic recession is reality. Poverty widespread. Corruption and weak governing is well-known. No surprise that refugees are treated badly then.
    12
  270. A lot of people have spoken about that. Switzerland voted to banned all sorts of face coverings. Sri Lanka actively banned burqas and closed down thousands of religious schools to prevent indoctrination/extremism. I support both of these countries decision to prevent religious violence and radicalization. But you do see the difference, right?
    12
  271. Sounds like you didn't watch the news. This is about the Eleven Cities Tour, which hasn't been organized in decades. They're not only talking about just ice skating....
    12
  272. "They are unapologetically anti-racist, anti-homophobic and anti-fascist." Another leftist anarchy group, minus the violence? Well, at least they aren't indulging in hooliganism, it seems. Yet. This is the last type of political movement that the civilized world needs though. They should move to Cuba or Venezuela, which I presume are favorably seen countries by these groups.
    12
  273. Nah. Some people are religious, and some care about values that strengthens the country and protects a people. Has nothing to do with Russia.
    12
  274. Been hearing about these revelations several times the past months. How many mammoths and ancient fossils are buried beneath Mexico?
    12
  275. Anyone working with the US runs with impunity.
    12
  276. Typical crisis management by authoritarian states more concerned with their national pride than the crisis itself lol. Look at Soviet during after the chernobyl disaster.
    12
  277. Because it takes time to build up trust, credibility and knowledge. I'd never want a young and inexperienced <30 y/o as a leader. That's just irresponsible. It's just electing a child.
    12
  278. Joe Biden's immigration policy is completely incoherent and incomprehensible. First, he signals that Trump-era policies will be halted. He signals that he'll accept tens of thousands of migrants and provide a path to citizenship to millions. He bans deportations. Then a crisis erupts. He places an unprecedented number of children in detention camps. Deportations are incoming. He's encouraging people to not come. He's starting to use the Trump-era policies, while complaining about Trump-era policies. God...
    12
  279.  @mohammedyawartariqwani8651  Why would they delete a comment without substance? Jokes aside, I wouldn't be surprised if Business Insider engages in censorship, considering their leaning. But we should not forget that YouTube has a suppressive filtering system in place that automatically removes a ton of comments.
    12
  280. So cute and protective 🤗🤗
    12
  281. Mental health doesn't outweigh the importance of saving lives, preventing business closing, making sure that people don't end up sick, and avoiding a prolonged situation of being stuck in this pandemic. What sort of twisted logic is that. If everyone follows directives and recommendations, we'll get through the pandemic in no time. Why don't these people realize that?
    12
  282. Hope Duda gets the win. We don't need less traditionalism and further weakness in Europe throughout these trying times.
    12
  283. Aren't boring and repetitive lives supposed to fly by then? Even though bored individuals tend to feel as if time is moving slowly..
    12
  284. *Scientists*, with a CCP approved tilt.
    12
  285. The prosecutor has literally denied showing George Floyd's previous actions a few years ago where he resisted arrest and disrespected the cops. The prosecutor and the family didn't want to "distort Floyd's character". If showing evidence implies distorting the subject's character, you know that you're out on dangerous waters... Floyd screamed that he couldn't breathe a year before the 2020 May incident when he (once again) was arrested by the cops, even though that obviously wasn't true. He could breathe. He could move. Saying that you "can't breathe" sounds like an automatic reflex that perpetrators says as an attempt to circumvent the police and the law. Chauvin should be acquitted as soon as possible. This trial won't be fair. Far from it. It's a politically process of mob justice. Something you'd see in a banana republic.
    12
  286. Tons of effort to save one species while ~200-2000 species dies off annually. I suppose the larger animals are easier to detect, track and save, though. Maybe deemed as more important as well due to their widespread presence and biomass.
    12
  287. They've had a couple of coronavirus cases popping up every now and then over the year. They've managed fine and has isolated all cases to prevent local/domestic spread. I presume the same success will happen here.
    12
  288. Solely living for yourself does rarely create a purpose or an existence worth living.
    12
  289. Good development for Ecuador. Congrats!
    12
  290. NGOs, international organizations, and pretty most all countries provides funds and housing to convicted criminals and extremists all the time. It's part of the "humane policies" that these Western countries desire. However, Islamic countries provides funds because they're apologetic or willing to excuse the acts by radical perpetrators. Palestine are common culprits in this regard, they provide millions to the families and the illegal actors that have committed brutal acts of terrorism.
    12
  291. Argentina has had (still is) a long history of socialist governments where every person is supposed to be equal no matter their status. So I can see why this little 'accident' leads to massive protests, even though these protests will increase the spread (indicating that these people may not actually care about the virus, but rather that the symbolic disguise of equality is upheld). There's many other important subjects to protest against, such as a failed socialist state scaring away corporations, being in-debt/quickly increasing the national debt, and a leadership that has built up a country that most people want to flee from because no opportunities or stability exists. The recent immoral abortion laws are also something that I'd understand protesting against. But nope, and irrelevant incident is apparently what matters.
    12
  292. The terminology "crime" is probably not recognized by Pakistan and its army. The same applies to many armies and countries.
    12
  293.  Russ Vorontsoff  We know that Islamic theocracies are brutally hostile towards anyone or anything that challenges their rule. We know that many innocent people, by the civilized world's standards, are executed and persecuted in these countries. Sounds like you've got limited knowledge about Iran's state of affairs. Or are you a fan?
    12
  294. Why? Those nations are unstable and don't have much to offer. They're both on the way out from the global stage, more than currently, with their pariah statuses.
    12
  295. 16:18 are you trying to tease the Polish populace here? Seduce? Or are you running out of stock photos?
    12
  296. Almost every country on earth is a "thief" if we're gonna use border disputes during some point throughout history as standards Why advocate for a prolonged and escalated conflict rather than a realistic solution that involves peace?
    12
  297. Someone should fire Bolsonaro himself.
    11
  298. The rioters, of course.
    11
  299. How has the Mexican populace reacted to this high profile murder? To the fact that ~30K+ homicides has been recorded the past year? Is outrage prevailing in the debate? Calls for change? I hope so.
    11
  300. Awesome. Preserving biodiversity and all of its species within is not only important for the species in question itself, but for humans, nature and every food chain related to the species. These efforts are therefore crucial, combined with efforts against illegal wildlife trade and poaching.
    11
  301. Gratz, let's the space race V2 begin. Maybe it'll be more friendly this time around considering that China has decided to share the samples with the scientific community around the world.
    11
  302. These people have to build up their own home countries with the potential assistance of the West (assistance which constitutes billions of dollars annually already, with peacekeeping military forces, health personnel, financial aid, hospital facilities built, vaccines sent, and funds for education). Europe is and ought to remain closed so we can repair all of our problem related to careless migration policy and a multi-cultural society. These people need to go back.
    11
  303. Don't scapegoat IMF when Argentina didn't even adhere to their advice. Argentina is at fault, not IMF.
    11
  304. It was all a temporary act that never could've lasted. Argentina has rarely focused on stimulating their economy or attracting investments. Short-sighted spending and a big welfare state is all that they've had in mind. That's not a policy preparing for the future or its people long-term. The analogy of a "kid in high school with good grades and great motivation" is therefore lacking, considering that such people tend to become very successful. Argentina didn't lay out the groundwork that secured a good outcome. They created failure.
    11
  305. Respecting the dead, preserving/archiving history and doing so in a spectacular manner is respectable. Good job, South Korea.
    11
  306. China: "Taiwan can't be doing better than us nor present themselves as independent. Time for an invasion!"
    11
  307. The Japanese must be pleased. Visitors and migrants is often seen as an annoyance to the Japanese.
    11
  308. Racism and slavery is a widespread phenomena in areas such as Asia and Africa. But these marxist theorists never focuses on that. They make up problems in the least racist part of the world to make a point that deviates from reality, and which only polarizes the country.
    11
  309. "Racial justice". You're in Netherlands, what the...are you talking about? They're one of the most tolerant, open and accepting countries in the world, and has embraced people from all different cultures. What are these loud activists complaining about? The police rightfully arresting criminals? Dwelling on a colonial past?
    11
  310. Don't support violent and subversive movements in a country where such sort of dissent and trouble is cracked down upon severely. Decide to go through with such activism anyway? Expect consequences, as seen here.
    11
  311.  @Leah-ce6hd  Lol, what does this have to do with skin color? Imagine being upset and offended by people dressing up as a funny character. Grow some strength and endurance for christ's sake.
    11
  312. We clearly need higher walls with spiky tops and barbed wire, along with a judicial system that immediately arrests these smugglers and sentence them to a penalty that ensure that they can't indulge in these unethical businesses ever again.
    11
  313. This is just symbolic and meaningless formalities. Maduro has had control of all legislative chambers and the country for years, by cheating, jailing opponents, and opposing a legitime election. It doesn't look bright for venezuelans. Poverty, oppression, famine and desperation will continue under Maduro's corrupt and undesirable reign of terror.
    11
  314. So he's shutting down the national assembly that was abused to punish the opposition and act undemocratically to stay in power. Now when Maduro has managed to steal the election, he doesn't need to abuse institutions to assert total control. Sorry to hear about what you're going through, Venezuelans. I hope you get rid of Maduro the rogue thug.
    11
  315. "Police brutality is an issue in the USA". Yeah, if you care about protecting criminal degens, maybe. Innocent and civilized people aren't affected by the police. The police sometimes has to protect themselves and the public, hence the fatal outcomes occasionally surfacing after a lawbreaker ignores directives, terrorizes communities and breaks the law.
    11
  316. I don't think a dictatorial autocracy, an absolute communistic dictatorship, like North Korea, cares that much about potential uprisings. The state would mow down every sign of protest, by force, and their family would be sent to concentration camps for the rest of their lives. North Koreans believe that they're living in an utopia by all of the state and educational brainwashing as well. Uprising are unlikely, even though the population is suffering from famine, poverty and suppressive oppression.
    11
  317. Read the military's reasoning as to why they seized power again. They claimed that the election was unfair, full of irregularities, and that the constitution grants the ability to accordingly seize power. The country was never a full-on democracy anyway.
    11
  318. I'm so tired of Brexit. No clarity, nobody knows what's happening, negotiations gets nowhere, and you won't know where EU/UK seriously stands on the Brexit issues or what they're planning. Wish it could be over.
    11
  319. Did that guy take out the camera to film when his brother almost was trapped under the avalanche? Priorities. Swift camera skills though.
    11
  320. If UK had a backbone, control of their borders and a homogeneous culture in contrast to the 3rd world, this wouldn't have happened. But the West has a different goal and objective other than protecting their own people.
    11
  321. You know that we're lost as a species when our leaders has to convince the lost, conspiratorial and unhinged crowd to drop their vaccine skepticism and take one for the team by vaccinating. The queen, leaders around the world and public officials has had to boost the vaccine rates because of, presumably, individuals such as yourself sowing distrust and skepticism around this pandemic.
    11
  322. Plump bottom the lady has 😊
    11
  323. Not much treatment will be effective on the obese. Their immune system is shattered and their ability to rehabilitate from many of the self-inflicted wounds is very weakened. Fighting against the obesity epidemic should be a high priority in every country.
    11
  324. Really? Bangladesh has problems with islamism and dogmatic belief in the doctrine of islam. But that shouldn't be countered by implementing Western delusions.
    11
  325. Ahh..here we go again. Another tense and hurtful trade war and worsened tensions between the West and East. Those who'll suffer? Innocent, poor and every day people. Those longing for peace and prosperity.
    11
  326.  @hrishikeshkumar1894  Commies tends to be the type of people that exposes themselves for anyone and anything no matter its risks, so yes. Absolutely. There's a reason why STIs, addiction and abuse is prevalent in these left-wing demographics.
    11
  327. Drastic times calls for drastic measures. Turkey needs to be pushed into submission. Into civility. Into making apologies and behaving humanely.
    11
  328. A purple city, heaven for girls :')
    11
  329. China has 4 state-owned companies (including the PLA) with over a million employees each. The largest state-owned "corporation" is the Pentagon in the US, though, with 3.2m employees.
    11
  330. Good. Cut redundant federal spending and put the nation and the people first. If you're gonna throw away money, at least make sure that your people's welfare is ensured first. I'm a bit surprised that Trump is in favor of the ~2k unemployment/one-time payments to families rather than the lower ~$600 figure. Isn't he surprised to be a conservative spender?
    11
  331. Democracies can be authoritarian.
    11
  332. That "overexploitation" led to a bunch of opportunities, growth, jobs for Tanzanians and an improved economy. Change that dismissive attitude if you're gonna comment on the economic state of affairs. Socializing and nationalizing large swathes of the economy in Tanzania has damaged the country and resulted in the people suffering. Imagine defending such carelessness.
    11
  333.  Petar Pan  Lots of scary rambling there. Wow. Why are you trying to put the blame on NATO out of everybody? Russia started these conflicts, not NATO...
    11
  334. Millions are fleeing from Venezuela, yet there's still people around the world that are supporting the rogue socialist dictator in the country. There's so many threats in this world and within humanity.
    11
  335. An insurgency in the North where rebels are hitting security forces, a genocide of villagers in another part of the country, and unstable neighbouring countries with issues potentially leaking into Ethiopia. The nobel prize winner, Abiy, has a whole lot of challenges ahead of him.
    11
  336. Imagine how they treat....*anyone*. Lebanon can't take care of any person due to how broken and poor the country is. Race and background is completely unrelated.
    10
  337. This is why Al Jazeera and many of these international news organization are interesting to watch. You hear about countries and stories that your local newspaper never would cover. You learn new things. Hope things work out well for the citizens of Benin under its current seemingly tough circumstances
    10
  338. Pretty sure Kamala is a more or less open border advocate who claims that Trump's immigration policy was inhumane. I'll be surprised if Kamala doesn't make this worst. She was picked as VP because of her gender and race, nothing else. She's far from qualified, and laughed off the crisis on camera a few days ago.
    10
  339. Says the feminist when talking about one of the most feminist countries on earth.Nobody has ignored these women. Calls to protect them and listen to accusers has been made and adhered to. So what are you complaining about? Why are they protesting against a society and a government that has taken accusations of harassment and sexual impropriety seriously?
    10
  340. Cuba is in a social and economic mess by its suppressive one party communist state penalizing those trying to survive by operating on the banned free market, or by expressing themselves. I hope these artists succeeds in making a change.
    10
  341. These riots and pointless unrest would never happen under Pinochet. Shame on Chile for allowing the deterioration of their country and their people's morals.
    10
  342.  @justdogood7413  Take a look at Singapore. An incredibly safe place with almost no corruption and high standards of living. Switzerland are doing alright too. Same goes for most Nordic countries (minus Sweden). Certain gulf states are also doing fine. Mexico's corruption is insane, and their politics doesn't make things better.
    10
  343. Lmao. He's found his sanity, rather. Shutting down radical imams, deporting jihadists and crushing terrorism while amplifying the role and status of the police is what any civilized and responsible leader would do. Let's show some respect and acknowledge that secular/western countries are free to do whatever they want to protect their country and people. Not surprising to see Al Jazeera viewers standing behind the jihadists though. Perhaps that's why this network may be shutdown.
    10
  344. It's more sick to let murderers, terrorists, rapists and pedophiles be upheld at the taxpayers expense, and eventually release them into society at society's expense.
    10
  345. Considering that the election was "won" illegitimately by blocking the opposition, jailing dissidents, silencing critics, denying international observers, and Maduro upholding his grip on power without provable support by the population, you could argue that there's 2 "leaders", according to their constitution. Guaido is the interim president until legitimate and genuine elections are held. Maduro has ran the country to the ground. Without destabilizing forces such as Russia, Iran and Turkey, we'd see a stable Venezuela today.
    10
  346. Sudan were recently removed by the US list of terror-sponsoring nations. Surely the individuals that'll be deported will be sent to safe locations under a relatively stable governance? Doubt the policy would go through otherwise.
    10
  347. It's not "gross", it's beautiful justice. This police should be handed a prize, an award, and widespread praise for his wonderful actions of protecting the public from horrible culprits.
    10
  348. Unifying a country is always hard. Many may be caught up in the crossfire. But the alternative is sadly, usually, worse.
    10
  349. Yep, that people are trying to cancel and complain about trivial non-issues is ridiculous. Leftist infiltratism has led to everything being seen as racist, fewer and fewer words being allowed, and some people being ostracized from society for simply having neutral and reasonable opinions.
    10
  350. The people complaining about this should leave the country and work on removing their, frankly, pathetic sensitivities. Let people participate in harmless traditions, in harmony. Don't trample on things that aren't broken.
    10
  351. Some of these leaders who've done nothing to handle the pandemic in a humane and effective manner should be tried for crimes against humanity. That includes Belarus, Sweden, Brazil, some US state governors, and some other indifferent countries. It's inexcusable to dismiss a health crisis like this. A disgrace.
    10
  352. They're more democratic than every Arab state, yeah. Protecting their people and own system has to sometimes be done by proactive and infringing methods such as these. Solely acting reactive is what dooms a country. And let's not pretend that Arab states aren't using these methods all the time as well. But Al Jazeera's audience wouldn't concede to that. That said, I'm not a big supporter of UAE, Saudis or Israel. But that doesn't mean that you can't acknowledge that these spying methods may be needed in some situations.
    10
  353. Xi factually correct in this case, confirmed by many Western journalists and institutions. China has decreased poverty rates drastically the past decades, that's undisputed. If you think that factual claim is delusional, perhaps take a look in the mirror.
    10
  354. Because of outlier side-effects which are still unverified so far? Sounds like you suffer from confirmation bias and that you've already made up your mind, no matter how safe and effective a vaccine is.
    10
  355. The military bombed and raided a group and people known as "Karens". I'm sure we're gonna see humorous references about that in the future when the conflict in Myanmar is toned down. European and americans aren't fans of Karens.
    10
  356. Because Turkey are looking out for themselves, their influence and capital. Supporting actors that'll result in Turkey's ability to build out residence, extract resources and to spread their claws globally. Turkey is a quasi-dictatorship, a theocracy. No morals can be found there.
    10
  357. Not sure how this man governed or how good he was for Chad. But he's got my respect for sacrificing himself on the battlefield with his soldiers, rather than being a cynical cake eater on the sidelines. RIP.
    10
  358. Qatar values their own internal security and safety too much to ask randomers without qualifications or compatible cultural values.
    10
  359. Not much of significance or improvement will occur under Biden. He's an establishment career politician that are fighting against his own advocacy and policies that he's implemented throughout his 40+ years in politics. He'll enforce a status quo let-go politics where heavy convicts will be pardoned and given clemency. Drugs will be legalized or decriminalized. The moral fabric will deplete. Yet the impressionable masses are cheering on this guy. The guy that chose a VP and shaped his cabinet picks based on affirmative action and discrimination. The guy that undermines his son's excessive violations, potential tax fraud, drug abuse, nepotism, and corruption.
    10
  360. Trump: The next administration will have to handle this broken bill by Congress. Maybe it'll be us. Al Jazeera reporter: "It won't" Nothing's over yet, keep it unbiased. And how do you know that the president isn't referring to the 2024-'28 administration?
    10
  361. "Thanks for letting us talk with you during this, seemingly, Somalian crisis" Has impoverished, regressive and unstable Somalia ever not been in a crisis?
    10
  362. Israel aren't "killing Palestinians" out of the blue as if it's systematic and targeted with no justification. What propaganda channel told you that?
    10
  363. Because the deliberate participation in war is seen as a self-sacrifice for one's country and people. The most crucial task to protect one's collective. That said though, first responders are very much valued and appreciated by society as well. Just take a look at the aftermath of 9/11. Forest fires in Europe a few years back, and so on. They are important and cherished by most people.
    10
  364. It brings in a lot of tourism revenue for these countries and isn't that hurtful to the animal compared with poaching, letting them live without protection in the wild, and compared with what's going on in slaughterhouses. I can see the complaint, but it's not entirely valid.
    10
  365. Good luck getting a leader such as Putin and his regime listen to you. Having the people's best interests in mind is a very rare sight when looking at Russia's regime.
    10
  366. The failures of history are repeated over and over again even though there's a massive archive of the documented failures, warning signs, school courses discussing the failures, and historians expressing concern. So it doesn't seem like preserving old buildings and camps will do much justice. That's not to say that it shouldn't be preserved though. But its practical usage for humanity is limited.
    10
  367. I'm no fan of k-pop, but wow, the genre consists of so many cute girls.
    10
  368. It always is. They're doing a whole lot of dirty work without receiving enough credence and support for their beloved sacrifices. Our police deserves so much better.
    10
  369. Let China do whatever they wish to preserve peace. US are a bunch of hypocrites in these cases. They accuse China of using crackdowns on terrorists, rioters, and vandals. But when the President of Law & Order of the Free World resorts to tough tactics and rhetoric against domestic plunderers and extremists such as the rioters that mobilized during a pandemic after the death of Floyd, that's apparently okay all of a sudden? Let China restore order in Hong Kong and remove questionable domestic elements without a bunch of partisan backlash, and focus on China's actually proven wrongdoing instead.
    10
  370. They still hold 90% of the seats, lol.
    10
  371. These teens and their unhealthy habits obviously needs to be regulated.
    10
  372. Wait, didn't Taylor end up in trouble because of being together with a drug dealer?
    10
  373. For shooting a protester to deter the crowd? Really?
    10
  374. Best odds lies at BLM, Antifa or a jihadist being responsible. Tolerance should've never been shown towards these entities.
    10
  375. Here we go, a return to redundant WHO's status quo, without any improvements or objections to the organization's flaws. A classic and expected decision by the centrist-oriented Biden administration.
    10
  376. An important note: The app/company that was compromised was literally a security-based application that gave advice, security resources, and tools that could protect oneself from breaches. That's why federal authorities and many corporations were using the app. The safety based app manages to be infiltrated to a degree that almost is unbelievable. The trust and credibility is now gone. And much damage has been done.
    10
  377. Look at Texas. Now Florida. Why can't these accidents ever teach a lesson that deregulation on the market isn't ideal?
    10
  378. "The violence that gripped the Congress due to Donald Trump" Can these editorializing journalists be removed from the public discourse? This polarization and spread of fabrications is the last thing we need.
    10
  379. Chinese trials aren't legitimate and fair. So we all know what the verdict and treatment of these detainees who've likely been arrested on politically motivated grounds will look like.
    10
  380. He was literally elected because he suggested that he would legalize drugs. That's basically it. All the junkies and abusers flooded to the polling station to cast their ballot for him so they could continuously destroy themselves and the nation through their unhealthy habit. Now the entire country is reaping the ramifications from this.

  381. Russia has always been quite useful in maintaining peace and being neutral. Look at their involvement abroad and blatant acts of destabilization. All they care about is favoring own interests and advancing position.

  382. I bet many people had downloaded the deleted videos already. See something interested and capturing on the internet? Save it, record it, and archive it. Otherwise it'll be gone.

  383. The only good action I've seen taken by Kamala is back when she jailed drug abusers and other criminals. She switched her stance on the matter and is now willing to excuse these convicts, while implementing the radically horrific ideas placed forward by the hostile and lawbreaking group known as BLM, and other far-left elements. Hopefully her team loses the election. We'll be way better off without a person like her with political influence.

  385. Promoting every citizen to take the vaccine is irrational when you look at the death rate which only involves a small group of vulnerable people. We can't reach herd immunity through vaccination. Booster shots and modified shots once or so per year seems to be what's going to be praxis. Mutations are inevitable no matter vaccination status.

  386.  @satyendra6587  This report is about India and mismanagement which has resulted in accidents that could've been avoided by interacting with these areas carefully. It doesn't matter what is happening in other countries. Take some responsibility.

  387. ...nah. The rich 1% and a few profitable corporations who dominates the market makes up for like 40% of the emissions and pollution globally, if I recall correctly. Slightly decreasing the population rate wouldn't change our lifestyle, patterns, the influence of the rich, and the deregulated system that enables excessive consumption and irresponsibility.

  388. Lol, why would they and why is that relevant? Do you even know why the crackdown against the Rohingya happened? People should stop bringing up that nonsense as if it's relevant

  389. Let's not be naive and suggest that Jesus would reject all peace deals or propose that the elimination of Israel is the only answer. Let's not forget either that most oppression occurs in Arab Gulf states and similarly constructed societies, not in Israel. A two state solution would be ideal, but Israel and Palestine seems to have abandoned that goal, resulting in a stagnated prolonged conflict.

  390. Does the Philipphines have the resources and financial muscles to do so? Aren't their own people almost below the poverty line?
    9
  391. Yep. Sounds like a sexually deprived and senseless culture. A repulsive fetish. Maybe a lack of repercussions and control by authorities is what has manged to allow this.
    9
  392. Good. Electrifying the economy and encouraging the use of electric vehicles is sustainable, less annoying for bystanders/residents with its lowered sound frequencies, results in a cleaner air, and is basically the future. Supporting all affected parties in this necessary transformation into an environmental friendly direction is the appropriate action to take to turn these policies into reality. Props to Greece.

  393. He won by a democratic election a few years back, so anything else would be surprising. The TPLF is just a small group in the Northern mountainous region of Ethiopia, with limited support. TPLF are deemed as rebel traitors which will be arrested and punished, from what it seems.

  394. MBS must be one of the youngest leaders out there.

  395. As a swede, I'm appalled and incredibly disappointed with the weak strategy that our country, government and health institute has instigated so far (slowly changing, luckily). We're usually dubbed a scientific, credible and stable country, but this pandemic has yet again shown the complete contrary. Scientific data on mask usage, shutdowns and disciplinary restrictions has been rejected by almost every official and institution responsible for handling the virus. Wrongful calculations has been made regarding herd immunity. The deadly approach of reaching herd immunity was spoken positively about up until its horribel connotations were revealed, which led to authorities starting to dismiss that they spoke positively about it. Incompetence has been expressed over and over again by leaks and decisions taken by immunologists, researchers and epidemiologists Anders Tegnell, Johan Giesecke, Emma Frans, Agnes Wold, Karin Tegmark, Stefan Löfvén (up until recently) and many others. Equality has literally been an important part of the strategy. Unbelievable. I'm glad that improvements slowly but surely are incorporated, however.

  396. Lol. Look at the army charging and initiating a battle cry in the beginning. Looks like the Uruk Hai preparing to invade the Helm's deep. Although the roles are shifted here.
    9
  397. Restrictions to voting is a prerequisite to prevent mob rule. Too many restrictions and infringements can create a dictatorship, however, which perhaps isn't preferred. We need a balance. Those without IDs shouldn't vote. Those who've committed crimes shouldn't be eligible either. The law-abiding citizens who've registered and put in effort to cast their vote, do deserve to vote. This doesn't target any group (as some unfair critics falsely suggest), and maintains election transparency, security and integrity.
    9
  398. China is like a slightly more lenient but powerful version of North Korea. Doesn't care about diplomacy, does all they can to get an edge on the market, defies agreements and accords, and is essentially trying to reach global domination by intimidation and by force. Sadly, this is what may start a third world war. Hope it doesn't go that far though.
    9
  399. Norway uses a lot of hydropower and renewables to meet their citizens' energy demands, which is commendable. But it doesn't look good that they're exporting so much emissions while trying to appear as a net zero emitter. From a financial standpoint, Norway are doing fantastic. They've used the seas to their advantage since the 70s to extract oil and create one of the most thriving economies on earth by smart investments and the establishment of a state fund worth $1T, or ~$195,000 per citizen. Are their market policies environmentally defensible though?

  400. Africa and corruption; name a more (tragic) iconic duo. It's quite ironic how SA's government and intelligence service had the intent of improving the image and reputation of the country. Instead, the country's and continent's image worsened. Congratulations.

  401. While talking about democracy, lol. Yes. Watch out for the purge.
    9
  402. The Venezuelan state is pretty ruthless and harsh. I wonder why they haven't managed to use force at the border to prevent these exoduses and clashes. It wouldn't have made a much difference due to the millions already trying to flee Venezuela due to its socialist economic failure and engrained corruption, but still.

  403. "I don't look at life by age, but by energy. You don't bring age to the table, you bring energy, that's what matters". Wise words

  404. Removing authoritarianism is incredibly unlikely. Mainly because it works, can benefit the people, and is an extremely powerful force.

  405. Trashy leader with militant and imperialist agendas. Just like China, Russia, Iran and its toxic allies.

  406.  HonestFoz  Obsessing over and interpreting this event as something racist or worthy of removing is moronic.

  407. Good luck finding the killers in a country such as Afghanistan, a place in ruins where you may find bombs, landmines and killers behind every corner. Sad reality.
    9
  408. "Supreme status" lol. Nobody sees poverty-ridden and violent Russia as a role model. The country has an economy equivalent to New York state, that's it. Drinking, hazing, an elite defrauding the people, and poor infrastructure, is an apt summary of the nation. Some of Putin's policies are good and all, but I can see why Navalny is supported by many (perhaps not in Russia, yet), when there's so many flaws in the Putin regime and the country.
    9
  409. Don't blame USA for the broad corruption, incompetence and the ever reoccurring socialist doctrine that Venezuela is engraved in and time and time again leads to failures.
    9
  410. Racism and even modern day slavery is actually a pretty big issue in countries like Kenya or on the African continent compared with the state of the West. Yet interest groups and rainbow tinted corporations keeps on talking about how "racist" the West is and how suppressed every minority is, even though they're living in freedom under the most prosperous circumstances on earth. So tiresome to see the nonsense.
    9
  411. Racism isn't common at all in Western countries. In fact, western countries are the least racist ones out there according to studies and censuses. That people keep portraying these countries as xenophobic, racist or discriminatory is just a foolish joke. Such accusations against Japan would be more apt, I suppose. But they're a responsible country with their own agenda that includes protecting its people and culture. An agenda that upholds their own interests. Why should Japan be blamed for having a reasonable migration and comprehensive cultural policy?
    9
  412. These corporations has always been hypocritical, superficial, dishonest and self-serving opportunists. They don't care about ideology in actuality. About positive change. All that matters is surfing on whatever trendy political wave there is to make a profit and attract the impressionable to purchase their stuff. Wish this could be sanctioned and regulated away.
    9
  413. How many Syrian ISIS fighters were welcomed into Germany but returned to Syria? I know Sweden had the highest rate of terrorists returning to fight for ISIS per capita. Germany are likely close behind due to their similarly irresponsible policies. But Germany's naivity aside, at least they sentenced a Syrian government war criminal to 5 years in jail recently. Always something.
    9
  414. At least they aren't spreading any baseless speculations, conspiracies and guesses such as yourself, which can be seen as an unprecedented and subversive form of propaganda.

  415. "known as Penguin" lmaooo

  416. They probably say to themselves "well, at least the inhumane and stupid orange round man isn't in the White House anymore!" While ignoring or being unaware of what's about to come by a Biden era migration policy.
    9
  417. Several countries has already started using these Russian and Chinese manufactured vaccines, even though the same medical standards in the medical trials seen in the West, or based on the usual procedure, hasn't been met. Quite suspect. Desperation must be taking over.
    9
  418. Good quote. Maybe it can be used to convince BLM's advocates and supporters to for once wake them up. That an irrational scapegoat such as "white people" or "the police" has been forced upon the entire Western world when there are actual problems that ought to be countered is so ridiculous.

  420. Afghan forces trying to imitate and take tips from US special forces. Cool, as long as the Afghan forces remain loyal to what's right.

  421. Social engineering and managing to intrude into someone's email, bank account or credit card info is labelled as a form of hacking. Something that is rapidly increasing in the era of digitalization. But the tricks in the video seems to be fraudulent scams or phishing attempts sent out through a large number of spam emails in order to deceive a susceptible audience. And identity theft.
    9
  422. The report were released like 2 years ago lol CIA already "verified" that "MBS approved the assassination". Unclear how true that is though. Wouldn't be surprising considering that it's Saudi Arabia, but still, CIA's records isn't flawless.

  423. He uses the term "fascist" loosely and exaggerates his views. The views he held aren't formed in conspiracies or inaccuries, this is a complete hit piece about the right.

  424. Why are they still pretending that it's a democratic country? Are Russians that gullible/indoctrinated?
    9
  425. Well, that clearly doesn't work in a dystopian pandemic where people are dying on a massive scale. How can it be so hard to understand for many of these, frankly, egoistic people? Why is it so tough to care about your fellow countrymen by making temporary sacrifices, respecting virus restrictions and avoiding going outside for a while? It's appalling to see these reactions. I hope the police locks em' up.

  426. Sounds like the Maldives has to diversify a little instead of putting all their eggs in one basket by relying on tourism. However, these are the type of countries that I wouldn't mind supporting in crises because they've technically not messed up their economies or governed their country poorly. They've just been hit by an unavoidable pandemic, which damaged their country. Here in Europe, we're providing a bunch of loans and donations to countries with poorly run economies with low pension age, socialist spending, high federal minimum wage laws and costly policies that keeps on pushing their country down in need of support. Respect to the foreign secretary of the Maldives for showing up here though. Always interesting to hear different perspectives and stories from countries that barely are part of the media's limelight.

  427. Lol what? Haven't heard that. The main issue with plastic surgery is its irreversible intervention that results in physical damage, destroyed skin, and regret. The artificial practise doesn't benefit society at all and should be banned.

  428. Barbie is american isn't she? And plastic surgery is done by millions of americans annually. It's a strange western practise that ruins the natural look and results in negative implications.

  429. "There's a mass amount of people that voted for Trump, there's a mass amount of people that support white supremacy" In what world is this true? What happened to this reporter? Almost nobody supports white supremacy..how can anyone compare that low rate with the rate that supports Trump? Is she referring to the criminal George Floyd and the valid police intervention against the paranoid drug user?

  430. Good. Only healthy parents with a responsible outlook on the world and how to raise children, should be able to raise children. Otherwise you'll end up with unhinged children questioning their identity and focusing on all the wrong things.

  431. Is this a new method of growing and harvesting saffron? Why has this not been used before, or has it? Is the quality satisfactory enough to sell it everywhere abroad? Many questions.
    9
  432. India doesn't really take general security for their citizens seriously. Just look at the violence, frequent cases of rape, caste discrimination, etc. With limited technology, tools and development, taking cyber security seriously will be even less likely. But the government will presumably try, at least.
    9
  433. Imagine criticizing this law because it "is too harsh". I imagine those that are doing so are rape suspects. Perhaps go ahead and arrest them?

  434. You clearly aren't aware of the history regarding the Yemen civil war and who started it. Hint: Saudi Arabia didn't start it and aren't the entity terrorizing the Yemeni people.
    9
  435. Indeed. These demonstrations are perfectly understandable, legitimate, and significantly more peaceful than the riots that we've seen earlier this year by leftist extremists.

  436. Chris Miller and Mark Esper were Trump's defense secretaries during his final years. Mike Pompeo were secretary of state, not defense secretary.

  439. Did you watch the video? Don't dismiss it immediately without analyzing the arguments or provided alternative suggestions. Who would replace Trump in the Republican party in the future? Graham?

  440. So he mainly speculated on the stock market and tried to inflate stock prices, buy low, sell high, and reap the profits without innovating or physically working to create goods and capital? Has he signed Bill Gates pledge to donate his wealth?

  444. It's unfortunate that this part of the world always has issues with emigration, destruction, poverty and conditions resulting in people looking elsewhere. But many of these issues has transferred to Europe and North America as well, due to a lack of border checks and sustainable migration policy. The borders has to stay closed.

  449. Illegal deforestation, clearing biodiversity and hunting endangered animals is a situation of where I can see why civil disobedience and vigilantism is resorted to, in a peaceful manner, of course. These are situations of where the state has failed the people, the country, and most importantly, the innocent animals.

  450. Idk. Ask Iran. They're the ones indulging in the vast majority of the provocations.

  451. Latin America consists of central and south america. Perhaps look up the definition? And most of these countries in the area are suffering badly from poverty, corruption and economic downturn. So it wouldn't even be that generalized or inaccurate if you paint these areas with a broad brush. Same goes for Africa. Why glorify decayed states in dire need of changes?

  452. EU's trade union and inner market didn't have any borders, really, nor controls. That changed after Brexit for UK.

  453. 90% showing mistrust of the shots and the majority straight up denying vaccination? Wow. Wonder if the state will go authoritarian to deal with that.
    8
  454. That's usually how law enforcement operates though. Follow the government's directives, and enforce the laws. The question is if these law enforcement officials has engaged in corruption, defied the law by extrajudicially killing off people and arresting people by planted evidence or on false premises. I don't know if that's true, decisive evidence for that doesn't seem to exist right now. Feel free to provide insight or info you're read on the issue or a Bangladeshi citizen.

  455. Qatar doesn't play identity politics that way and doesn't apply marxist theories in the way the Western oriented countries does. They don't care about underrepresented minorities or representation for that matter. I mean, why should they? They're the most rich country per capita in the world. One of the safest.
    8
  456. Nope. The terrorist Houthi movement is a very specific group of people using threats, combat and illegal actions to seize power and brainwash Yemenis. By their actions, they could definitely be designated as a terrorist organization. I'm surprised it took this long for the USA to classify them as such. Houthis doesn't "represent" nor "legally control" Yemen.
    8
  457. So dumb. Australia and its government has listened to women. They've listened to the accuser and shown sympathy regarding a case that allegedly occurred in the 80s or so. So what the heck are these women protesting for, during a pandemic?

  458. Having served doesn't grant you impunity. Abide by the law, be transparent, and don't avoid cooperating with the police and you'll be respected and avoid clashing with law enforcement.

  459.  @justdogood7413  Sanctions have caused an impact. An impact. Not all of the impact of the economic downturn that mainly is caused by corruption, poor governing, a socialist policy that never works (is inefficient/stifles growth), printing cash, not controlling your finances, etc.

  460.  @justdogood7413  African countries has lots of Christians and religious followers, and look how corrupt, decayed and fallen many of those backwards countries are.

  461. Authentic democracy and fairness isn't the preferable model by socialist parties and corrupt dictators, you know.
    8
  462. I can see why the Philipphine government figured that it was worth to ban the ability to work abroad. Shortages of competent medical personnel, doctors and nurses is a nightmare during pandemics. And making sure that one's Filippino brothers and sisters are healthy and alive in these tough times can therefore be seen as a patriotic duty. The loss of income and economic struggle is of course a shame though.
    8
  463. Watch the video and look up the situation in Venezuela objectively instead of spreading misinfo. Al Jazeera are correct here. And by the way, imagine shamelessly supporting a socialist dictator that has crushed Venezuela, killed innocents and resulted in massive refugee streams because people can't survive. Disgusting to see.
    8
  464. Even Israel realizes that deportation, strict border patrols and deterring penalties against high-risk subjects can be appropriate and in required to survive. Being oppressed previously by certain regimes doesn't imply that you have to be a liberal minded individual with no principles or preferences to preserve.
    8
  465. Wondering why Germany isn't prepared for cataclysms like this. They've surely got the resources, money and previous experience with crises to prioritize taking care of it and proactively minimize the risks.

  467.  @johnnyghostex  What propaganda? The acts of terror, vandalism and violence that the Rohingas used against the state and police stations? That's why the military crackdown occurred, naturally.
    8
  468. Build up your own countries instead of relying on others. Other countries shouldn't have to deal with the problems that undeveloped countries and its people are experiencing and a part of. If you've seen the homicide rate, violence, lost control and misery in Mexico, you'd see why many countries are rightfully inclined to close their borders.
    8
  469. Such a lie. Turkey literally send mercenaries to the Azerbaijan->Armenian conflict which exacerbated the war and led to many casualties. Turkey declared war on the Northern part of Syria a year or so ago out of nowhere, on their own prerogative. That deaths and destabilization that that caused is almost immeasurable. Have you been hijacked by Turkish media or something?
    8
  470. The bloodshed and disorder will worsen under a president unwilling to use the police/military to uphold order. A president whose main supporters are part of the militant rioters that cause a bunch of societal damage and destruction whenever something don't go their way. We're in for a wild ride
    8
  471. People from the middle east, which I presume you're from, shouldn't be talking about freedom of speech when it's practically non-existent. Complete freedom of speech doesn't exist anywhere, because it doesn't work and can be a threat. If you with your huge power glorify and express sympathy to groups classified as terrorists, repercussions must arise to prevent social instability and waves of terrorism. It's that simple. Almost nobody advocates for absolute free speech, and nobody should advocate for limitations against expressing moderate and morally righteous political opinions either. A balance important. You can easily claim that these rappers crossed the line and ought to be penalized for it.
    8
  472. This rapper and his friends do belong behind bars for sympathizing with convicts, anarchists and terror-designated rebel groups. Respect to Spain's authorities for taking proactive action against dangerous citizens with too much power. I wouldn't think I'd praise a left-wing government, but there it is. I hope the vandals that polluted the streets with their receive the same medicine as the rappers as well.
    8
  473.  @ttemp2631  That's a disgusting level of historical revisionism. Pathetic. Mao killed many dissidents and people within his OWN party during the cultural revolution. He starved tens of millions of people by poor management and ineffective economic policies. He killed anyone that opposed his project of implementing socialism in China. The educated were killed. Landowners. Stop defending atrocities.

  474. What is your problem? What has the French done to you, eradicated terror groups and sent jihadists to reeducation centers? Stay on topic or get back to school.

  475. "He just knew how to make people feel better" Yeah, the pregnant woman who he threatened at gunpoint must've felt better, right? The persons that suffered by his robberies? The people who were affected by his drug abuse? The police officers who were traumatized by having to handle the dangerous entity? What a lying fraud.
    8
  476. Mexico needs to handle their obesity rate and the unhealthy lifestyles that many, including the elderly, leads. These are some core factors why people in these countries are dying on such a scale. Mexico is the country with the highest obese rate in the world. However, if proactive and previously working on these issues wasn't desired, the government could've responded harsher to the coronavirus to prevent domestic spread. That was always an option too. Many leaderships around has blew it in that regard.

  477. Respect to politicians and ministers doing what they can to boost the confidence in vaccination. This is what a responsible leader does.

  479. For the sake of the Venezuelan people, Venezuela's future, and global stability, I hope that Guaido and his team succeeds in providing a legitimate election in the country and optimally seizing power through legal means, to remove the most corrupt, incompetent and suppressive dictator that the country has seen in quite some time, socialist Maduro.

  480. Nobody is suggesting that the public of Belarus suggesting these policies..it's always a reference to the leadership. "China did x = CCP did x"

  481. Do you know what that means? Your statement is a bit subtle, so it's unclear if you do. For clarity: In 95% of cases, the subject will receive 100% immunity from the virus. In 5% of cases, nothing will happen.
    8
  482. This trial wasn't fair whatsoever. Neither were the charges against the officer. So it shouldn't be surprising that he got prosecuted for 3rd/2nd degree murder and manslaughter, even though it obviously wasn't murder and even though he simply did his job. This ruling is disgusting.
    8
  483.  @saxglend9439  Take your own toxic advice!

  484. Because some countries thrives and lives by engaging in provocation and war. The suffering and misery pointlessly created doesn't matter to the countries in question. Who's the biggest culprits? Syria, Russia, Turkey, North Korea, Iran and some smaller or more unknown/non-influential states in Asia/Africa.

  485. 1% rate of HIV in Senegal, 28% of the cases is seen in this little little community. This is seen all over the world. And people still wonder why the little community in question is criticized? Pathetic.

  486. I can't this pandemic. The latter is likely more important than someone's facial expression. The skepticism, lies, and conspiracies around this pandemic that humanity has contributed with is a pure disgrace.

  487.  @unknownentity352  False. The bill has been withdrawn (for now) and included the ability to film and publish info about the police if you do it with integrity and on a serious basis, without trying to cause harm or harassing the police. Yet the riot-loving troublemakers wanted to make a big deal about it, because they realize that their determination to terrorize, sabotage and protest harshly whenever they don't get their way, would be restricted. I hope Macron goes along with passing the bill anyway.
    8
  488. Biden has invoked a historical high amount of executive presidential orders, without letting Congress or the public comment on the matters. He's not even answering questions in the WH. The power has already gone to his head. Yet he's calling for unity.
    8
  489. Good law. Harassing and slandering the police should be met with harsh penalties.

  490.  Aman kumar  All religion should be abolished. It only creates docile, naive and weak individuals that believes in superstitious stories that don't reflect reality. Islam needs to be prioritized in this regard, but every religion should follow and be removed.

  491. That'll be hard since Erdogan is getting rid of dissent and him and the media has managed to brainwash the Turkish populace. The guy deserves to be in jail, at least, but will be continuously supported.

  492. This can't be a sport. How do you even choose a winner? Subjectively assessing people's movements and choosing the seemingly most smooth participant? What's next, gaming? Food competitions? Dirty rap music? The olympics seems highly questionable these days. They're even going to use affirmative action to make sure that there's a 50/50 gender split in the games. They should be prosecuted for discrimination.
    8
  493. Remember: Iran lied for days after the Iranian revolutionary guards shot down this passenger plane. They admitted to what had happened when the pressure became too strong. Take their reports and statements on this with a grain of salt. Everything they do and say is politically motivated.
    8
  494. The hate crimes seen isn't a drastic increase in absolute numbers from what i've seen. And if we actually listen to the experts and the police chiefs investigating these crimes, they're unsure whether or not a hate motivate was involved in most of the scenarios. People really need to be careful before drawing such conclusions. Especially if they're gonna draw such conclusions to blame some unhinged scapegoat such as white people or white supremacy, when the precise opposite of that is responsible for the crimes.
    8
  495. For sure. But do you know how the Nobel Committee reasons when it comes to this? They state that "we can't nominate Trump because he hasn't taken right-wing extremism seriously and hasn't stood up against racial injustice". All of this is of course a blatant lie and a partisan mischaracterization by an important body, which delegitimizes the Nobel committee's reputation and completely depletes the value of the Nobel Peace Prize.

  497. Creating and selling luxury goods while trying to release marketing campaigns to inflate its price doesn't really benefit society. So I don't see any problem with this. Other needed and beneficial sectors will take over, especially if a state steers the direction in that way.

  501.  @amug3536  Sounds like he's got love for law-abiding and civilized people. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Do you have love for gang members and the most dangerous people out there, or what? Is it "hate" to show a critical attitude towards the latter groups?

  502. China are taking advantage of the rest of the world being closed down. China managed to stop and control the virus rapidly. This year couldn't have gone better for the country. They took over as the biggest trading partner in South America, continues with investments in Africa, has increased production immensely compared with the rest of the world stuck in shutdowns, and keeps spreading their influence worldwide.

  503. Ardern has handled this really well. I don't particularly like socialdemocrats and some of their questionable stances on social policies and how people ought to act, but we could've used her way of governing here in Sweden where we have a weak, slow, pseudo-scientific and liberally-oriented socialdemocratic rule that don't prioritize the people at all. That's why we have like 12,500+ coronavirus deaths, compared with NZ's ~25 deaths or Taiwan's ~25, with similar population rates.

  504. Because most of the drug addicts, criminals, liberals, socialists and the fiscal neoliberals are OK with Trudeau's quite weak rule, let-go politics, and drug-positive stance.

  505. It's not very objective of you to claim that the decree (which I find limited info about) to be a declaration of war, which it isn't. It seems to be a plan to maintain Ukraine sovereignty and reintegrate Crimea, something that you didn't mention in your comment?
    8
  506. If you remember the forced disarmament and the dismantlement of the Empire of Japan after WWII, that resulted in Japan barely having any real army for decades. This is a huge change. Japan doesn't have any imperialist intentions or aggressive tendencies, so this is all justified. But still a significant transition into a new era.
    8
  507. Or because Islamists has been welcomed in without blinking by many countries. Because of a lack of control directed at many of these Islamists. If the world used the type of practises that Myanmar or China uses against extremism, and if the world closed their borders, would Islamic terrorism have become such a big problem? Doubtful.

  508. North Korea has stayed quiet and reclusive for the past couple of months. Haven't heard much from them. So I can see why the mutual military drills and cooperation between SK-US can be toned down.

  510. Is only the "peaceful community" the problem? I mean, 25% of the country is illiterate and over 50% are farmers. Population control is definitely needed for large parts of the demographic throughout India, not just the peaceful entities.

  511. They should sue themselves for not doing their job. For letting the protesters pass through the barriers. For describing the incident as a coordinated insurrection, debunked by the FBI and other actors.

  512. It's promising that there's still some people out there that values the right to life. People that are willing to stand up for those without a voice. For the vulnerable. Especially since most liberals, leftists, women and similar demographics, are not willing to do so.

  513.  @workbook17  She realize the need for harmony, peace, and stability, which is created under such circumstances.

  514. This is a very small figure of individuals fleeing the country compared with the annual emigration and the total emigration seen under Venezuela's long socialist rule: "By mid-2019, over four million Venezuelans, around 13 percent of the country's population, had emigrated since the revolution began in 1999. The United Nations predicted that by the end of 2019, there would have been over 5 million recorded emigrants during the Venezuelan crisis, over 15% of the population."

  517. Democracy in many of these Arabic countries will lead to Iran/Saudi Arabia V2. Islam spreading like wildfire. So what we need to strive towards is a stable, decent, nationalconservative, and secular/scientific-based society where technocracy and meritocracy dominates the country. Or something along these lines.

  521. The guy was like 50-60 years old. I doubt any education system could've saved him. The authorities should've tried to connect the dots, find and arrest the high-risk subject, and prevent the theories that led him down this path of delusion.

  523.  @damikem  So pensions in Israel are all personal savings built up each time a worker receives their salary (this is partially the case in many other countries too)? Or what did you mean by the pension system being a pyramid scheme in other countries?
    8
  524. Lol no. Why should banks provide loans to criminals and people who've proven not been able to behave or handle their finances? Don't blame the system when you're a big culprit in terms of creating these problems in the first place. Don't excuse the horrific activity thrashing Detroit. Remove the roots and stand behind a zero tolerance policy against violations instead.

  525. Biden has made our military/spors scene into a defamed laughing stock by his swift signatures, jeopardized national security, opened up our borders and stomped on civilized behavior. All tragic. I like his climate- and coronavirus policies though.
    8
  526. What you just said makes no sense. The average Indian per capita income has nothing to do with how much an american/british person would gain from indian viewers or views overall. And why would anyone even use "India" in the title for views, as if people would be extra fascinated by the country? Bunch of nonsense lol
    8
  527. Or maybe because Switzerland has for long enforced a decent monetary, fiscal and social policy which has led of the creation of one of the most prosperous countries on earth that attracts investors, tourists and business ties all over the world. Their neutral policy on foreign affairs has also helped them out noticeably.

  529.  @electron5271  This is a big problem in the West. A completely weakened and feminized police force handling dangerous criminals as if the perpetrators are innocent individuals whom are slightly misguided and deserves a second chance. That's not how you create notion of respect for authorities. That's not how law & order is established or maintained. Zero tolerance crackdowns is the way to go.

  532. Stay strong. Props to this demographic for staying relatively neutral and keeping your sanity after the being ran over by radical rebels, ISIS. Must've been tough.

  534. Bolsonaro has gone towards the unhinged direction. Blindly following USA, Trump and the US constitution. Rejecting climate change, dismissing the pandemic as a little influenza virus, and easing the gun laws instead of countering the violence by force. Bolsonaro's traditionalism and anti-communist platform used to be good, but he's went off the rails lately. You don't crush gangs, cartels and gangster violence by arming these entities and random citizens. Vigilantism isn't the answer, stronger authorities is.
    8
  535. China, India, Vietnam and Russia does not want the UN to interfere nor condemn the Myanmar development as a "coup". The military has always had the main say in the country with lots of influence, prior to the full takeover earlier this year. Can that be seen as a genuine coup? Debatable. Either way, nothing will be done because several superpowers are unwilling to do what it takes.

  537. Compensation has already been delivered, several times. Drop this case already instead of milking it by hurting political ties and foreign relations in the process.

  538. Nothing breaks down NZ and its rule. Successfully manages to crush a virus outbreak and quickly mitigates the effects of frequent earthquakes. While I disagree with its socialdemocratic governing body, NZ's last years actions have been commendable.
    7
  539. I wonder if the protesters genuinely believe that they have any change to overthrow a government that has had stable control for decades. A government that has consolidated power with the indirect support of Russia, China, India, and other strong partners. A government that clearly won't back down to a little pressure.
    7
  540. Are they seriously comparing waste collectors with first responders, healthcare workers and the police? Cmon. Some of these professions are obviously more important than others, and are therefore prioritized in the vaccination cue when there is a limited number of vaccines available to be administered.

  541. Religious schools are inherently oppressive and outdated. You can teach similar moral values without a religious basis, and without forcing a bunch of garments on students and children. Making such a change is hard for some conservative countries though.
    7
  542. Religious fundamentalism, militantism and coercive brainwashing. It's a huge threat to global stability.
    7
  543. So even the most "developed" and stable country in Africa are suffering from these unpredictable scary events that likely results in many innocents being hurt/killed. Seems as if the continent never will become peaceful and desirable.
    7
  544. Exactly. We've been hospitable and trusted these individuals for "humane reasons". What's the response by some of these individuals? Law-breaking behavior. Disrespect. Coldhearted dismissals. They deserve to be deported immediately.

  547. We're full and do not want the many issues that 3rd world countries are dealing with. Build up your home countries and try and flourish there instead. Don't encourage invasions.

  548. The Iranian people are not as radicalized and dogmatic as some think. Many are annoyed with their regime's incompetence and hostile agenda. Many are inspired by Western trains of thought. What's surprising here is that Western information managed to pass through the Iranian state's checks and surveillance. Why would they allow these books?
    7
  549. Farmers are taken care of. The new law increases the profitability and diversity in the agricultural sector. They're protesting over nothing.
    7
  550. Why wouldn't the police immediately draw their guns if they know what type of criminals they may be up against? Have you not followed the BLM terrorists the past years? The communities where crime is normalized? Of course the police wants to protect themselves when detaining suspects.
    7
  551. The president has control over the opposition and this election. I doubt it'll go down fairly, which is why the US has pulled out from watching it and why many complaints and worries has been expressed surrounding this election.
    7
  552. Anyone calling for the defunding of the police should be placed in jail.
    7
  553. All of the blunders and the number of cases that Biden lost his train of thought occurred even though this was one of the most prepared press conferences ever. With journalists having been closely analyzed prior to approval, every question being preprepared, and with a grip on how what conference were supposed to be about. It doesn't look good for the United States.
    7
  554. It's to honor the victims that died under Gadaffi and during the civil war, and to praise the fallen heroes. Say what you want about Gaddafi, but his brutality and the misery that he inflicted upon many can't be understated. The international community were also involved, but that doesn't detract from Gadaffi's responsibility in destabilizing his own constituency, country, and the globe.
    7
  555. The corrupt power hungry court packers shouldn't dictate policy. The Supreme Court would just expand further and further based on who's in power. Pointless. Also, a "fun" fact: The "conservative" SCOTUS has never ruled against a "conservative" president (Trump) as much as this "conservative" SCOTUS has. Is it really conservative? No. Did it benefit Trump? Not at all. Should it turn further to the left? Nope.

  556.  @federicopintos698  Some of these people are clueless. Just spams random stuff as if they're having a rambling monologue in the middle of nowhere 🤣
    7
  557.  @mediterraneandiet2483  Such a dumb thing to say. Most people are not immune, not even close. Even in the countries who've been open, the immunized rate is very low, which has led to many abandoning the inhumane tactic. The amount of sickness, transmission and excessive death rate also invalidates what you just said. The current waves are harshly impacting many countries, leading to curfews and shutdowns. The vaccine programs about to be rolled out is the light at the end of the tunnel.
    7
  558. Bible justifies harsh punishments against murder, thievery, adultery, and infringements upon others. It isn't murder, really, if you impose it to prevent crime and punish heavy criminals.
    7
  559. MBS was met by sharp criticism by the world after the Khashoggi murder. It impacted foreign investments to the country, the GDP, and its future. I presume this release is a step to prevent further ostracization from the West and minimize the economic bleeding in Saudi Arabia now when oil is running out and markets are shifting. A concession and act of good will, even though it doesn't look good for a conservative religious nation to back down to external pressure like this.
    7
  560. Murderers and convicts being handled by force. Good riddance. Rest in peace to the Haitian police officer and the detention centre director that lost their lives during this debacle.

  563. Lol how? He didn't destroy the nation that previous presidents already had destroyed. He raised the morals, the country's economy, and improved it in many ways. The man's also a billionaire with many successful businesses. He secured the country and put americans first. Now we're going back to unnecessary spending, an internationalist agenda, and supporting causes that infringes upon humanity and decent values. But impartiality, professionalism and accuracy isn't anything to expect here I suppose.

  565. Send in the army. We don't want another 3 months of anarchy because a badly behaving criminal didn't get away with his crimes. Praise the police, don't shame them.
    7
  566. Sovereign countries has the right to remain safe and sovereign. Sovereign countries can't carry the world's problems just because some rights groups claims that that ought to be the case. That's another important point to remember in this debate. We should focus on solving the problems that leads to people initiating exoduses from the get-go.
    7
  567.  @domenstrmsek5625  Watch the video... For deescalating global tensions by provoking other countries with the Russian military (Ukraine at the moment). For allegedly hacking into US databases and authorities. For interfering in the 2020/2016 elections. However, China and Iran did also interfere last year at Biden's benefit. That's not mentioned. And the claim that the Russian state placed bounties on US troops in the middle east is not proven yet. So some of these reasons seems shady. But as a whole, Russia really needs to step down their imperialism and strive for unity/peace rather than conflict ALL the time.

  568. Myanmar was never a real democracy.
    7
  569. The previous nuclear deal didn't really pave the way for peace considering that Iran still had their hostile foreign policy directed at the world, sponsored terror militias, and so on. Destabilization won't be brought back by it. But maybe it's better than the current unpredictable climate...hmm.
    7
  570. If being a "traitor" according to the Arab world means continuing conflict, splits, and pointless war in the middle east, especially in the IP-conflict, being a "traitor" wouldn't even be a bad thing. Something obviously has to be done to handle the IP-conflict. This deadlock must be eased.
    7
  571.  @leaflight7903  Funny? It may be "funny" if you've bought into the media narrative which consists of dismissing all evidence and claims surrounding the election 2020, as opposed to what they did in 2016 when all accusations of cheating or collusion were treated as the infallible truth.
    7
  572. What sort of parent films their kid in the hospital to share it online and make a political point? Sick. I assume underlying conditions or the mother's hysteria may've been involved in this hospitalization. Not representative whatsoever of most children and adults.
    7
  573. The Hong Kong police force is one of the most professional and respected police forces in Asia. The accusations against them are mostly exaggerated, debunked or anecdotes/outlier cases used to improperly characterize them in a bad light. I can see why journalists spreading blatant fake news with an anti-cop angle are being prosecuted.
    7
  574. If these are the type of gangsters that you have to deal with inside of prisons, giving them a second chance, paying their maintenance and giving them food doesn't seem worth it. Remove them and withdraw the risk of recidivism, instead.
    7
  575. I don't like what Putin and the authorities are doing in the Navalny case, but diplomats from abroad should not participate in political rallies and abusing their authority.
    7
  576. So why does the Mexican government allow themselves to be steamrolled and controlled by foreign countries...if they did not want to take part in the evacuation from Afghanistan? The president usually steps in and puts his foot down when requests from other countries are made at "the expense" of Mexico. Why not here? This is Mexico's decision.
    7
  577. Firing officials working at the central bank for raising the interest rates a little to prevent inflation is not a good sign for Turkey's future. Erdogan should remove his hands from those who knows how to create a booming and stable economy.
    7
  578. "Why should I trust educated and competent health workers who for decades has countered epidemics/pandemics and saved lives"? She's so uneducated that it hurts. This is why these parts of the world are so dangerous. The residents reject help, are skeptic towards all forms of assistance, attacks health workers and aren't willing to prevent deadly diseases such as ebola.
    7
  579. Snow is quite rare to come across here in the Northern Europe. The amount of snow annually has decreased gradually the past decades. Some areas never receive snow anymore. Snow cannons is needed to maintain ski slopes during the winter season. Saddening to see.

  580. Because any other policy has been labelled as evil, inhumane and torturous by the media and the left. So as long as these imaginary evil policies aren't in place, the ignorant citizens are pleased and happy. For now...
    7
  581. The USA tend to be opposed to brutal dictators that can't run the economy and that kills their people. Why do you think millions are fleeing from Venezuela? Why is the country full of corruption, poverty and desperation? Because socialist governance is bound to fail and lead to a collapse, at the expense of everybody. Anyone in their right mind opposes Maduro's illegitimate rule. Blaming every failure and abominable action taken to oppress one's people on "US sanctions" is a laughable cop-out at this point.
    7
  582. A military or monarchs controlling part of the government doesn't have to be bad. It becomes a bad thing when they're corruptly enriching themselves at the expense of the people, not prioritizing the people, acting as an indecent disgrace for the country with no manners, and enforces bad policy.
    7
  583. The amount of money and life saved by from the get-go if proper safety and security measures had been in place at these risky workplaces surely is a strong enough reason to implement it on a national scale.
    7
  584. Good. It should be banned. No civilized person would abort a child. Allowing institutionalized eradication of fetuses for convenience is evil and despicable. Behave, plan ahead and think about what you're doing if you don't want an unplanned pregnancy to arise. That said, nobody should be forced to carry a child to pregnancy if the child is deformed or if it was created by rape.

  585. They don't have the international support, equipment and serious ability to do so. But they're encouraged by the outside world to keep on protesting/rioting.

    7
  587.  @GolfWhisky  Sadly, a predominant number of individuals from the 3rd world who've migrated to the USA still votes for the democrats. Migration benefits neoliberal dem-voting capitalists, the democratic party's power, and the left's agenda of forced diversity.
    7
  588. The richest, educated and successful countries carries this world and should of course be prioritized. It's a no brainer. Without that part of the world, the globe will cease to exist by war, mass death, stagnation and instability.

  590. Vaccination is mandatory in China. Over a 99% immunization rate.
    7
  591. Trump berated and fired Comey for his blatant incompetence. Comey even apologized for his illegalities and incompetence. But he's still upset about how that went down. Still spiteful. That's why he's saying that the orange man is bad here, for flawed reasons.

  594. Where's the racism? Just because you detect one perceived racist comment, doesn't imply that it's a systematic issue, that it exists with high prevalence, or that there's structures that upholds racist train of thought in society. There isn't. Feelings and 'qualitative research' consisting of anecdotes rather than empirical evidence isn't enough.
    7
  595. He's tarnishing and smearing the right-wing sphere by giving in to CNN's extreme bias and hatred towards the right. I'm heavily disappointed.

  596. The world is in such a mess right now. The amount of history books that'll be written about all of this when it's all said and done, will be staggering.
    7
  597. That's a classic brainwashed lie. Socialist states fails and falls into decay due to the corruption, poor leadership and counterproductive ideology that governs the country. An ideology that stifles innovation, prevents growth, scares away corporations, limits foreign/domestic trade, sets fixed prices instead of letting the market naturally decide, and discourages foreign investors. Venezuela would be a hellhole even if the civilized world didn't try to help the Venezuelan people.

  598. Don't watch it then. These are huge events which will impact the scientific and astronomical field. Worth reporting on. Lots of time, resources and state funds goes into this. Show some appreciation.

  602. The UK monarchy (one of the more conservative entities on earth) should stop appealing to its worst critics or just dissolve itself altogether. Creating a false temporary facade by implementing diversity programs and portraying oneself in a way that isn't genuine, won't improve anything for the UK, is purely symbolic, and is pointless.
    7
  603. Europe, especially France, has had enough of illegal and careless immigration. Expect them to send back this puppet on a dinghy.
    7
  604. And this is why the world laughs at the US military and why China will pass the US soon on every parameter. Embarrassing.
    7
  605. Yep. More confusion, pointless medical costs and focus on diversity/pronouns rather than military strength will partially be the downfall of the US military and the US as a nation. Ridiculous action.
    7
  606. Good on Norway. Foreign owned businesses having influence over national security and defense capabilities is always going to be a threat if countries such as Russia are involved. Gonna sell a weapon/defense equipment manufacturer? Sell it domestically or to an international ally.

  607. That's probably why the Chinese official stormed out from the meeting later on. I can frankly see why. It's not exactly a respectful terminology to use, even if you're critical of China.

  608. Imagine the noise deterioration once the global economy and our roads are electrified
    7
  609. They think that they're morally righteous to do whatever they want because "oppression". They're acting based on instinct and emotion, without any analysis regarding the implications. I'm sure these people don't realize the fact that public perception of what they're doing will significantly drop if they are rioting as well, according to studies on the matter.
    7
  610. Violence will never stop by continuously voting for leftist politicians who thinks that it's appropriate to use hugs rather than bullets to fight the forces of evil.
    7
  611.  @claaaaay  Yep. Well, the question is whether or not a society should encourage individuals and cultures that have deep-seated issues with psychiatric flaws, abuse, and traumas, rather than assisting the individuals to get back on the right track and get into a healthily recognized relationship. The latter is preferred. Especially since it's scientifically proven that abnormal interests and conditions are socially engineered in society through education, experiences, and values.
    7
  612. He should focus on solving Canada's issue with drug use, poisoning, health issues and the destroyed attitude around drugs that arose when he legalized it a few years ago. He can't pretend to care about public health and poor families when he's actively downsized both of these categories the past years lol...

  616. Arrested and raided for threatening the person that allegedly poisoned Navalny? Interesting priorities there.
    7
  617. You should "care about the West", or others for that matter, to avoid coming across as ignorant of world history and the meaning of influential symbols. You'll end up in very embarrassing situations otherwise. E.g, if you roam around glorifying contentious leaders or wears symbols that are stigmatized in certain parts of the world.

  618.  @cutiesanimalia1795  And it is true. One of their revolutionary guard generals were executed by USA last year. Iran shot down a passenger plane with 178 of their own citizens. Their economy is strangled. They're experiencing the downside by all the pressure put against them. Pressure applied because of their own unstable actions.
    7
  619. Yeah...this is so tacky and insensitive. Partying while the world is suffering. But i'm sure the population in China hasn't got malicious intentions in this. It's mainly the media that are portraying these events in a way that sparks disgust.

  622. There's a reason why Iran wished for Biden (and interfered by doing all they could to sway the election) to get elected. Biden will indirectly assist and give clemency to what Iran are doing in the middle east. The world will not become safer the incoming years.

  623. Corona: Declares war on the world Afghanistan: First time?

  624. Why is almost every single democratic run state and city flooded with homelessness, drug abuse, dirty streets and crime? It's almost as if there's some sort of trend that probably shouldn't go on....
    7
  625. Exactly. The dems don't care about the decreased security that irresponsible migration policies will entail. Nor the culture clashes and decreased chances for the law-abiding and legal population to thrive. Not to mention, as you said, it's perfect voting cattle for the Dems as well.
    7
  626. Chinese schools are freely operating in many European countries. Chinese students and employees are welcomed. I know that it is difficult to straight up prohibit this reciprocal cooperation, but these are obvious areas to regulate if you're opposed to Chinese infiltration. But I bet liberals will label it as discriminatory and raycist.
    7
  627. Wanna live and prosper? DON'T get in contact with Iran or other brutal countries. If you have to get in contact with the countries for some reason, BEHAVE. It shouldn't be that hard. These death sentences are presented on a frequency as if they're given out on a conveyor's belt.
    7
  628. Considering all the talks and influence that Israel has in the region, world and in the US, you'd think that the country has tens of millions of people living there. But nope, only 8.8M residents lives in Israel. Insane right? The nation has been propped up by military support/financial aid from the US and others, and since the region is like a ticking bomb (IP-conflict, hostile neighbours). Most arab countries are heavily opposed to normalization, so it'll be interesting to see how these newly formed ties plays out.
    7
  629. Or because the subject is quite complex and gets advanced rapidly at an early age. It isn't rewarding enough either. A lot of people simply find other subjects more interesting.

  630. Eradicating the Taliban and all rebels to create a stable country that benefits Afghan people and the globe, was the goal. A safe america, too. I suggest bringing your conspiracies elsewhere.
    7
  631. What did Italy do, shut down the country slightly too late? Meh, this sounds like an opportunist cash grab.
    7
  632. Surprising to see that Spain's government still hasn't criminalized these separatist parties. The government arrested several separatist politicians a few years back. Perhaps they're waiting to the end instead of being proactive due to its risks.
    7
  633. Brexit won't ever be ready if the EU and UK continues to oppose bending or adjusting an inch in their stance regarding how the post-Brexit conditions should look like. I'm sure both parties will make concessions to avoid a crisis though, when the time comes.
    7
  634. Judge permits continued illegal immigration and foul tactics to enter the USA. Why are these judges not labelled as traitors and removed?
    7
  635. Since when was conflict beneficial for anybody?
    7
  636. Nobody has officially been accused yet for this case from what I've gathered. And the accuser is a colleague to Morrison, if you will. You apologize and show empathy for your colleagues. That's how it works.
    7
  637. And because it's so unstable in this country. People's future is bleak, they don't see any reason to survive or behave like humans. They've been brainwashed to think that they're doing something good by blowing up themselves next to innocent children, mothers and men. They falsely believe that they'll will be going to heaven and enjoy themselves, even though they'll be sent straight to (figurative) hell where they'll burn for all eternity to make amends and pay for their horrific sins.
    7
  638. Refer to them as Russian apologists, perhaps unhinged actors or individuals that defends a very questionable regime. Using the term "bot" is a weak tactic that will be dismissed.
    7
  639. "Only 500 of the 16000 sacks of Stasi documents has been reconstructed". Lots of clues and evidence regarding the era of communist oppression to expect in the future then. Interesting.
    7
  640. Companies will support revolutionary socialist states, BLM, Anti fascist action, or right-wing authoritarian states, if it's profitable to do so in the unregulated capitalist system. When corporations have no obligation to abide by moral values, this is what you get.
    7
  641. That was pretty bad. But as a heads up, hypocrites can oppose decadence and still occasionally turn out to be decadent hypocrites. If these people policies are in place, it'll lead to more people receiving the right guidance compared with if decadence wasn't fought at all. A few will fall down into the trap, but the majority will benefit. Compare anti-drug laws and liberal drug laws. A few stupid hypocrites will still use drugs in both systems, but they'll be deterred and punished in the former. The populace will perform better in a country with anti-drug laws in place.
    7
  642. Sweden has been experiencing waves and mass infection/death tolls since the inceptions of this virus, and the outbreak has barely been countered by the government. The authorities are even recommending against the usage of scientifically proven effective face masks. Nothing is closed. Everything is operating as normal, almost. But US gets all the attention. Belarus, Brazil, Mexico and some others are also doing horifically, with little traction or media coverage. US deserves criticism and its leadership could've done it better, but the disproportionate attention directed at the country isn't fair.
    7
  643. These new prescriptions being found out to be effective against the coronavirus is another strong argument for delaying the virus as much as possible by enforcing shutdowns, curfews and prohibition on travel/gatherings. Many people will be saved by that humane policy, that some countries sadly hasn't adhered to.
    7
  644. Why are my comments automatically ignored? sigh..I put in so much effort to write that.
    7
  645. He's probably inspired by Sweden's failures in handling this virus. No lockdowns, no care for its people. Sad.
    7
  646. Myanmar is going to end up like Hong Kong. Stricter laws, stricter rule, and harsher criminalization against all forms of protest and riots. There's no indications that the army will outsource any power to the protesters. The question is how long the protesters are willing to carry on and how long they are willing to go. It's a big risk.

  647.  @sclad9053  What if the patient is willing to go through with the procedure, pay for it, and improve his appearance to live more of a normal life and recover? Should we let him suffer instead?
    6
  648. I think people hate that they have to be forced to learn things that aren't always interesting. But they love socializing with their peers, unless they're ostracized and have difficulties socializing. In the latter case, school's a nightmare. Luckily there are alternatives to traditional schooling these days.
    6
  649. They'd probably have been fired for standing up against him.
    6
  650. Shame that these poisonous taints that terrorizes innocent people by violence and threats wanders on this earth. There's no humanity or civility in them. Just anger, bloodlust, contempt and uncontrollable hostility. There's only one solution to that.
    6
  651. Who cares. Another criminal defying laws, disrespecting the police and thinking that they're above the law. I'm sure the actor deserved what he got, as tends to be the case in 99,999% of these situations. But reason, rationality and fact aren't the strongest suit for these aggressive BLM movements. Criminal lives do not matter.

  652. Coal is used in steel production. Steel is used in wind turbines and certain renewable energy projects. But there seems to be other ways rather than coal to produce steel and fuel factories these days, such as hydrogen usage and clean energy.
    6
  653. Australia don't want to have to deal with the tons of complications and social issues that would've occurred if they accepted everyone. I assume you know that, but you're too ideologically radicalized to accept that policy position. Making fun of or justifying natural disasters because you disagree with a country's politics is kind of depraved.

  654. Skiing is the last thing you associate these places with. But yes, skiing resorts does in fact exist in Pakistan and even Iran.
    6
  655. Every country should do this. Obeying authority and laws is a necessity for a prosperous country. You may be breeding rebellious agitators and revolutionary tendencies otherwise.
    6
  656. Recommendations and encouragements to stay home will never change people's plans. Ever. Want to stop something, temporarily or permanently? You need legislation. Repercussions for misconduct. Voluntarism is never enough.
    6
  657. Most of the Armenians that lived in the area had no responsibility in the war or the conflict though. Most just wanted to live in peace, which was disturbed by the conflict that arose once again between these groups and several governments that were involved. Some residents burned down their villages for the short-sighted nationalist sentiment, but I don't think that represented everybody.
    6
  658. "But analysts say his earlier mishandling of the pandemic will not be easily forgotten." Every country is praising Israel's swift vaccination campaign and their way of generally handling the virus. How in any world could this argument be used to vote against the Israeli regime.. It feels as if people are protesting over nothing, to replace Netanyahu with a candidate that has an almost identical platform..
    6
  659. Palestine pretending to be a democracy. Media is controlled. The approved parties with approved candidates are the only available alternatives. Anything that counters Sharia Law is rejected. Why are Palestine doing this? To justify the Western world and their liberal democracies support for- and all of its donations delivered to dictatorial and autocratic Palestine?

  660. zzz....*crickets*...silence...nothing would happen!
    6
  661.  @unities82  No. Leave people and countries be. Stay neutral.
    6
  662. I agree, if that applies to everybody. Remember, most of EU supported Biden and placed sticks in the wheel when Trump was president.
    6
  663. Bold, trusting the Russian vaccine lol
    6
  664.  @Linda43  Nope. Lines have been drawn. A Palestinian and Israeli state is basically reality these days and we have to go off of that. Establish peace by stopping the tensions, declaring that the current territory belongs to the authority that has the main jurisdiction, and strive for peace. Otherwise we'll be in a prolonged deadlock for centuries, with wars, terrorism and violence leading to unnecessary casualties.
    6
  665. This is a quite massive deal, opening up ties and diplomacy with Taiwan after having satisfied China on this matter for several decades. But US appears very hypocritical in their advocacy against China, which deteriorates their leverage and position. US praises the HK vandals in the anti-government movement, which condemning similar movements at home. Such a hypocritical discrepancy has been weaponized by CCP and its state owned media. We don't need contradictory politicization out of spite when it comes to foreign policy and international diplomacy. Both China and US should do better in creating a neutral and well-meaning approach.
    6
  666. Maduro wants a continued illegitimate presidency by cheating, locking up opponents, forbidding opposition parties, and suppressing his population. Why do you think millions of Venezuelans are in poverty and trying to flee the country? Why did Maduro win ~80% of the vote while having a <20% approval rate? Why were international watchdogs and observers limited from making sure that the election were authentic?
    6
  667. Tragic accident. I wonder how the Chinese state-owned media are reporting on this. Are they ignoring it? Are they expressing condolences and sympathy while suggesting that Taiwan is a part of China and that this therefore is an accident that occurred on Chinese soil?
    6
  668. China would be able to handle them too with their far-reaching and disciplinary assimilation policy.
    6
  669. So he ran up and charged against the police, ignored directives and the several warning shots, and ended up shot dead? And that understandable intervention resulted in this amount of chaos, outrage and vandalism? Pathetic. We need a Pinochet.
    6
  670. That's your own speculative and incorrect interpretation. Trade (leading to stability, peace and closer security cooperation between allies) may be one reason why the US would protect a place such as Taiwan, but it's not for self-serving purposes. US has signed into law that it has to protect Taiwan and its perceived sovereignty.
    6
  671. Bolsonaro seemed at first as a promising socialconservative collectivist in favor of unifying the population and protecting the Brazilian people. Oh, how wrong people were. This guy's a disgrace. Why isn't he strengthening his grip on power to combat the virus and protect the people? It'd be a great PR campaign. The economy may temporary take a hit and lead to a small dent, but it'd be beneficial long-term. And isn't Bolsonaro in favor of the military dictatorship? Why is he complaining about coronavirus restrictions being equivalent to dictatorships? Makes no sense.
    6
  672. Isn't Kashmir under strict surveillance, suffering from outages, internet blackouts and clashes between Indian/Pakistani troops in the border dispute there? Yet all media reports and captions I see about Kashmir consists of "Hey look, it's snowing in Kashmir!" "People are skiing in Kashmir." "The Kashmiri bird population are having some difficulties to tackle!" Seriously.
    6
  673. There's more deaths, torture and suffering in EVERY single gulf state compared with quite neutral and laid-back Israel. Israel doesn't persecute dissidents, doesn't put people to death, and doesn't control their populace as every country with Sharia laws do. Some stonethrowers and terrorists may have been rendered harmless, occasionally, but that's usually an act of self-defense. I do think that both Israel and Palestine should seek a solution without expanding their territory and provoking each others allies, though. That's the only pragmatic option.
    6
  674. EU regulators and officials from EU's corresponding health institute has expressed worry about UK's early vaccine release today. Someone has to express that they've been skeptical and critical of the early release in case things go southwards I suppose.
    6
  675. I think most people are behind Abiy Ahmed and his government. These news reports are mostly neutral and a good way for people to get a proper grasp of this conflict.
    6
  676. Especially after the USA limited arms sales and stopped designating the Houthis as terrorists, yep. I presume Saudi Arabia are scared of Biden's concessions to KSA's enemies.
    6
  677. People with a sense of self-preservation would at all costs avoid being a dissident in any theocratic and autocratic country. Anything else is a death sentence and a call for misery.
    6
  678. If USA did the right thing from the start during this pandemic (effective & strict closedown of society during a temporary period), the schools could've been opened up over a year ago. Sigh. Unfortunate that it had to go this way.
    6
  679.  @outlaw6429  You're encouraging people to not take precautions to minimize the spread of an influenza virus that is 10x as dangerous as the seasonal influenza. You're labelling a pandemic that has killed millions and resulted in excess mortality rates everywhere, layoffs, severe sickness experienced by many and bleeding businesses, as a "lie". That's a disgustingly simplified and misleading way to reason. That behavior belongs behind bars. Show some respect.
    6
  680. So unnecessary as well. Biden could've sped up an evacuation session several months ago by pulling out the troops and our diplomats in secret. Instead it was made into one of the worst public fiasco and foreign policy blunder that we've seen in modern times; innocent casualties, increased security threats and another stream of migration.
    6
  681. "You can't punish everyone" Yes, you can. These countries with an autocratic leadership does that all the time, to protect their people. In this case, it sounds like a large influx of drugs associated with Lebanese harvest and produce was negatively impacting Saudi Arabia. Putting one's foot down against such a trend is necessity for survival to keep your society safe. Props. Hopefully Lebanon can root out this problem within the agricultural and farming sector so trade can continue in the future.
    6
  682. From tens of thousands of deportations for poor, uneducated and high-risk individuals, to welcoming and giving out citizenship right left and center to the same individuals. The transition from a Trump to Biden presidency. Dark times ahead.
    6
  683. Migrants at detention centers in Greece set the camps and tents on fire a few months ago, as a way to force Greece or developed countries to take them in. A form of extortion, if you will, which caused many casualties, damage and increased the costs that the developed world are paying. We don't know the cause for these fires yet. They may've been manufactured. They may've been the result of negligence, mistakes or flawed products. But this has to be kept in mind.
    6
  684. A few thousands being infected to save thousands of lies and prevents millions of infections. Is that an example of the cure being worse than the disease? This should've been handled more cautiously and in a flexible way that prevented people ending up stuck. But restrictions were needed.
    6
  685. He's arguably a traitor trying to desecrate and tarnish the Australian military and the country's image, a country that has almost been infallible in their contributions of troops, assistance and moral support in all of the anti-terror campaigns the past decades. Should such a person get a way for releasing perhaps distorted, exaggerated and information that may compromise Australia's image? I don't think so. If the person did the same to an Arab country, the Arab populace would be calling for his execution.
    6
  686. My French teacher loved this guy.
    6
  687. I think that temporary, centralized and consistent restrictions during a short period of time to take control of the virus is necessary and the ethical thing to do. But a whole country must assert the same approach for it to be effective, and the country must be opened up slowly in stages, not in an abrupt way. That method has been proven effective. That said, such restrictions (curfews/travel or gatherings bans/quarantine systems) can be seen as a violation of human rights. That's not per definition a bad thing. It's needed in certain cases and in certain areas. So it's funny to see these human rights groups pretending that harsh restrictions in a pandemic isn't a violation of HR, which it blatantly is. It's almost as if a blind belief in universal human rights isn't as moral or effective as the Western world loves to think.
    6
  688. Big respect for every police officer performing their duty and protecting its people. Happy national police day!
    6
  689. Surely you don't consider this harmless and fun little stupid event as racism? Sigh...guess I shouldn't be surprised by Al Jazeera viewers.
    6
  690. Because people enjoy it, and because no normal person is hurt by it. Just like how Europe for the most part wouldn't force Gulf states or other parts of the world from engaging in activities that are way more dangerous and questionable than this harmless little tradition. Don't complain over nothing.
    6
  691. Such attacks are what you get when a government and society allows the ongoing brainwashing by the Taliban or other fundamentalist rebel groups. When you allow the recruitment and mobilization of radicalized actors to kill in the name of establishing a caliphate. When you encourage followers to 'remove defectors, infidels and our opponents at all costs". I've seen people even in this comment section under Al Jazeera, showing support for the Taliban and radical groupings with corresponding values. That's what leads to these unacceptable actions.
    6
  692. We've had a great winter in many parts of Europe. Ice skating, skiing, and walking in the snow has been really refreshing and a popular activity to many.
    6
  693. "A world without countries. A world without any checks in place to prevent terrorists and criminals from taking advantage of this insane idea." I thought we left these ideas behind us after the 60/70s liberation and hippie movements realized how destructive they were.
    6
  694. They're not just talking about Argentina, several latin american economies are suffering badly. But Argentina is a good example of poor economic planning, an excessive social welfare state, and leftist politics hurting the economy severely. 8/10 of Argentinians are looking to flee the country. Businesses are avoiding the country or leaving. Something obviously has to be done.
    6
  695. Yet the populations in many of these countries keep on voting for failed socialist policy, which intimidates businesses, decreases profits and results in heavy strains in the state budget and every state-funded institution. Why repeat the same mistake over and over again?
    6
  696. China has launched a space shuttle to the moon with the attempt of extract soil/rocks. Maybe it'll be used to create an artificial moon on earth, such as the project that Saudi Arabia is working on. 🤔
    6
  697. What??? What do you mean "leave Cuba alone"? Why shouldn't these protests be reported on? Why do you think they'll fix their own problems without assistance when a one-party communist state suppresses their population and destroys the economy?
    6
  698. Praying won't help. Blaming the USA won't help. It's the leadership and socialist ideology that are destroying the economy and social fabric of the country. Coming to that conclusion should be easy after having done a few minutes research
    6
  699.  @cartoonistxv9254  China doesn't respect or advocate for Western values, which is why restrictions are made on universities, medias, diplomats and other channels that China uses to influence and infiltrate the West. I don't always agree with the restrictions, restrictions which may be seen as contradictory sometimes, but it's understandable that limitations are put in place.
    6
  700. Wait to have kids until people are vaccinated and the pandemic is over. In a functioning country with a caring leadership, that wouldn't have to be said. Very unfortunate.
    6
  701. Sports that involves a big risk of injury and permanent damage to your health should be looked at. Should they be allowed? Should severe restrictions be implemented to make sure that everyone's safe? Outcomes of people becoming brain dead or very hurt will impact society and their future offspring. Not good.

  702.  @michacuranda5603  Aligning oneself with the values of Vatican is 100x better than letting the communist doctrine from the Soviet era remain.

  704. Is it really that hard to incentivize waste management and strictly prohibit companies and private persons from littering and throwing away waste in public?
    6
  705. He'd be right in that regard if China wasn't a free market. But...they are. That's why they've become a new global superstate with immense influence. Fast economic growth, increased purchasing power and a strengthened currency attractive for investors has put China on the map. The recent Asian trade agreement will amplify their position and desires even further.
    6
  706. The Houthis started it all, and are blocking aid organizations for political motives, holding leaking oil ships hostage, torturing/killing anyone opposing them, and are the main culprit causing the humanitarian crisis. But that factual and historical accuracy is lost by many. Ask yourself why that is.
    6
  707. Deregulatory and unfettered neoliberalism is spreading to India :') I wonder if it'll backlash.
    6
  708. A morally righteous piece of legislation. Good to see. Putting a high and unconditional value on life and penalizing promiscuous prostitutes is a valid policy to instigate, everywhere. However, I don't see why women should be forced to carry deformed fetuses until birth. Seems excessive and ineffective for society, and for every party involved.
    6
  709. If the mother's life is at danger, they'll be able to abort. Or if rape was the cause. And no, many Western women are too free and emotionally driven to think ahead when it comes to their sexuality, which is why abortion laws are needed to change their (and some men's) bad behavior.
    6
  710.  @jthomas4361  Chaos and social unrest is way more common in Africa than in the advanced countries. That the people in Africa are annoyed by a stagnated state not prioritizing their own citizens or about their failed country as a whole is very much commonplace. Why be so defensive about this?
    6
  711. The police got rid of a threat, once again, as always. That's what I call justice. Right in front of you. The injustice is the terrorist riots that it leads to.
    6
  712. Descendants from those who were targeted in WWII, maybe. Descendants without any personal experience of oppression who therefore won't feel as guilty or hesitant towards everything ongoing in the IP-conflict in the same way as the forefathers would. Although many forefathers have been in favor Israel's foreign policy and occupation as well.
    6
  713. Kind of weird to single out a certain race and people. Imagine if a European country expressed these messages. They've be slammed and witch hunted in the media.
    6
  714. Many entitled brats. Both vaccines and mask usage should be mandatory. It's equal for all, and it counters this pandemic. What's so hard to understand about that? If you're so unwilling to care about anyone but yourself, go live in a hut in a secluded forestry area far from society so no one will come in contact with you ever again.

  716. I doubt it. The new security legislation stifles such activity. Coronavirus restrictions limits its presence too.

  717. Fear- and warmongering Turkey doesn't deserve anybody's respect when they keep sowing discord and conflict around every corner, even with their closest allies.
    6
  718.  @Linda43  Yup. Hard to negotiate with ticking bombs, armed militias and hateful entities that aren't looking for peace. Although both sides are behind some provocation (attacks by Palestine and its actors, or annexation plans by Israel). I find it hilarious how the most oppressive and tyrannical parts of the middle east are labelling the democratic and liberal country Israel as the oppressors though. That anyone ever would think that these arab states are honest is beyond me.
    6
  719.  @Adeolaex  A bad move. SInce when does a president visit the battlefield when they know that the battlefield is flooded by terrorists?
    6
  720. Blind nationalism. Serbs wanted independence and to rule over Bosnians, and likely vice versa, from what i've gathered. Greed and an inability (or unwillingness?) to co-exist can cause the most brutal massacres ever. Understandable that both demographics were intimidated by that quickly, considering that no revengeful acts has been seen since the war ended.
    6
  721. Biden should stop interfering in how states wants to form their policy to clean up the mess.

  722. Never mess with vampires

  723. They should close down religious gatherings, churches, and indecent partying clubs. These have been some of the main sources of the spread. South Korea needs to get the message.

  725. I'll never support or attempt incorporate these deals as long as dominant socialist elements are included.
    6
  726. Revolutions works better in weak countries without any real leadership, laws or respect for authorities. In a civilized nations, saboteurs BLM criminals and terrorists would be coercively placed in jail, sentenced to strict punishments, or worse. But in the Free World, they're indirectly encouraged to freely operate and ruin us.
    6
  727. That doesn't fit the agenda. Right now, all focus and limelight is directed at a particular group of people, based on race, because some criminals in the US died. Can't believe that BLM received this amount of influence. That people mindlessly bought their cheap and questionable message..
    6
  728. Flying is generally extremely safe, no matter which airline you choose. The rigorous testing and checks by the FAA and Boeing's executives will have eliminated the risks. But I can see why people are naturally skeptical. The flying industry is a dying one as well. Maybe most airline and aircraft production corporations will end up bankrupt. Unless a new sort of fuel is developed to make it more environmental friendly.
    6
  729. Every country should adopt an energy combination of the following sources in order to remain clean and self-reliant all year round; Nuclear power, wind, solar, hydro, wave power, and possibly geothermal energy, turning nuclear waste into power/burning it to deplete its radioactive status, and biomass.
    6
  730. Nah. BBC reports on Yemen every now and then. Keep up. No need for the conspiracies. British weapons are sold to KSA, KSA are supporting the Yemeni state to crush terrorists (Houthis), a militia sponsored by Iran. Why the outrage when the UK on the right side in this conflict?
    6
  731. People are delusional if they think that these unprincipled companies care about any violations or about what's right. No chance.
    6
  732. It isn't called with such terms because the person's motives are UNKNOWN. As opposed to the many religious extremists that blows themselves up for political motives. They're labelled as terrorists because they committed an act of terror for political change. Perhaps look up the definition of the words that you're using instead of publicly embarrassing yourself in a conceited manner, just a tip.
    6
  733. I've never seen Trump supporters claiming that Biden/Hillary supporters are "stupid" (outright), that they need to be ostracized or punished. I only see the contrary. Liberals/leftists trying to punish people for voting right-wing. Trying to label the right as war criminals, traitors and survivors of a brutal regime. Supporting censorship of them. Harsh ostracization. It's clear which individuals are a threat to the US when it comes to unity, policy proposals and security, and it isn't coming from the right.
    6
  734. People showing interest won't matter that much if you're governed by a tyrannical state, a military, or a dictatorship. Just look at the complete failure of the Arab spring. Or the increased crackdowns after many protests seen this past years, particularly in Hong Kong. Protests can work, but the right conditions and political system has to be in place to allow that.
    6
  735. When audits are rejected, Iran/Chinese interference is ignored (even though intelligence services highlighted its presence) and when all wishes to look into electoral irregularities are dismissed as conspiracies, these demonstrations are inevitable. At least they've got a reason to be there, were generally calm, and held a genuine political protest, as opposed to BLM that burned down cities and looted stores to steal devices because a criminal lost his life.

  736. Removing offspring due to your own careless and indecent actions will never become a right. It'll never be seen as a form of female healthcare. That level of dehumanization is unacceptable.

  737. Attacks? Should an arrest of the shoplifter not have been made? Or are you insinuating that the insensitive laughs of the arrest was an "attack"?

  738. What does a report about the risk/activities of ISIS has to do with the news landscape getting bored of corona? These reports are always published and are of high priority. You make it sound as if the report is about something miniscule and useless lol

  739. Because of the obesity epidemic, exercise not being the norm, and because there are not checks and regulations in place to uphold good health. Liberal individualism at its finest, in a nutshell, at its core.

  743. For what, a light-hearted and harmless joke? AOC and her friends literally praised the BLM terrorist riots for months, but a twitter meme is worthy of condemnation and suspension? Give me a break with this fake outrage.

  746. Maradona's political views were quite interesting, least said, he was a communist. Strange how people end up on this track: Having previously been vocal in his support of neoliberal Argentine President Carlos Menem and his Harvard University–educated economist Domingo Cavallo, Maradona showed sympathy to left-wing ideologies. He supported the establishment of an independent Palestinian state and condemned Israel's military strikes on Gaza during the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, saying: "What Israel is doing to the Palestinians is shameful." He became friends with Cuban leader Fidel Castro while receiving treatment on the island, with Castro stating, "Diego is a great friend and very noble, too. There's also no question he’s a wonderful athlete and has maintained a friendship with Cuba to no material gain of his own." Maradona had a portrait of Castro tattooed on his left leg and one of Fidel's second in command, fellow Argentine Che Guevara on his right arm. In his autobiography, El Diego, he dedicated the book to various people, including Castro. He wrote, "To Fidel Castro and, through him, all the Cuban people. Maradona voiced support for Bolivia's ousted president Evo Morales and was also a supporter of former Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez. In 2005, he came to Venezuela to meet Chávez, who received him in the Miraflores Palace. After the meeting, Maradona said that he had come to meet a "great man" (un grande, which can also mean "a big man", in Spanish), but had instead met a gigantic man (un gigante). He also stated, "I believe in Chávez, I am a Chavista. Everything Fidel does, everything Chávez does, for me is the best." Maradona was Chávez's guest of honour at the opening game of the 2007 Copa América held in Venezuela. In 2004, he participated in a protest against the U.S.–led war in Iraq. Maradona declared his opposition to what he identified as imperialism, particularly during the 2005 Summit of the Americas in Mar del Plata, Argentina. There he protested George W. Bush's presence in Argentina, wearing a T-shirt labelled "STOP BUSH" (with the "s" in "Bush" being replaced with a swastika) and referring to Bush as "human garbage".In August 2007, Maradona went further, making an appearance on Chávez's weekly television show Alo Presidente and saying, "I hate everything that comes from the United States. I hate it with all my strength." By December 2008, however, Maradona had adopted a more pro-US attitude and expressed admiration for Bush's successor, then-President-elect Barack Obama, for whom he had great expectations. In December 2007, Maradona presented a signed shirt with a message of support to the people of Iran: it is displayed in the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs' museum. In April 2013, Maradona visited the tomb of Hugo Chávez and urged Venezuelans to elect the late leader's designated successor, Nicolás Maduro, to continue the socialist leader's legacy; "Continue the struggle," Maradona said on television. Maradona attended Maduro's final campaign rally in Caracas, signing footballs and kicking them to the crowd, and presented Maduro with an Argentina jersey. Having visited Chávez's tomb with Maradona, Maduro said, "Speaking with Diego was very emotional because comandante Chávez also loved him very much." Maradona participated and danced at the electoral campaign rally during the 2018 presidential elections in Venezuela. During the 2019 Venezuelan presidential crisis, the Mexican Football Federation fined him for violating their code of ethics and dedicating a team victory to Nicolás Maduro.

  747. If these political groups are trying to make a change and persuade others to on good grounds join their cause, they probably shouldn't use serial criminals as representative symbols for their movements. It doesn't look good, indicates criminal-apologism and is borderline immoral.
    6
  748.  @SKELTER.  Indeed. We should wait for further details before presuming that a "white lynch mob with racist intents tried to on racially charged grounds attack an innocent black man", a narrative that every organization will spin for days now.

  750. Trump is still your president and has been your president for the past 4 years. Willing to concede that? Many Democrats hasn't conceded this, and tried to instead initiate sharp and unethical witch hunt to capture the White House and take over the country. And now this same group are complaining about Trump not immediately conceding, due to election irregularities, close outcomes in several states, and due to criminals/illegals abusing our election system to vote Dem.

  753. Weren't there any security personnel in these schools? I hope they're installed now, at least. Snipers, guards and armed military troops making sure that nobody is hurting, abducting or attacking the students/kids. It's tragic that these outcomes can occur in the 21st century. It certainly highlights why the world can't open itself up to these countries.

  756. A masters degree in mathematics or the science field to become an astronaut? Hmm. Sounds more like what you'd need if you were to work in the space industry once you've retired as an astronaut. But maybe there's specifics and thorough knowledge that you have to obtain to fulfill your purpose as an astronaut that I do not know about. This is just my amateur take, so feel free to fill me in if you've got any insight.

  757. This is just delusional. We've seen bloody Antifa riots several times the past weeks, destroying police stations, hindering the police's work, crushing windows, and calling on violence acts against right-wingers. Where's the reports and concern about that?

  758. Must be unconstitutional. Especially at this early stage of the pandemic and when you look at the statistics of who's affected by the virus.

  766. What a refreshing mindset from the Emirati. After all, Einstein used to say that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting different results. Change, adjustments and improvements to a policy can be necessary to make it work. Great that people are breaking the partisan ethnic/religious barrier in the Israel->Palestine conflict.

  770. Does Bangladesh have aircrafts? That's a new one. Thought they'd be religiously conservative enough to avoid such modern technology, or that the education levels would be too low to establish such an industry. Perhaps the West has aided them.

  773. Not bringing them back and not sentencing them to what they deserve would be seen as a violation to international law, human rights conventions, and to various declarations. NGOs would get involved. Appearing as kind, accepting and following these irrational liberal paragraphs will be the end of Europe. It's like Europe is willingly shooting itself in the foot and letting everyone suffer accordingly, for no good reason.
    6
  774. Democrats has been trying to abuse this tool to unseat and remove the president for years. They should be held accountable for politicizing a sacred constitutional ability to benefit their own side, without justification. Trump said, and did, absolutely nothing wrong. Any serious independent person who've examined the situation will see this.

  775. What does this have to do with China? And why do you expect the world to stop trading with a country that mass produces cheap products, with a 1.4B population? Not realistic.

  776. I don't know how I feel about letting individuals from a poor country with standards and norms that aren't applicable to our own values stay in this country.. But of course that won't be acknowledged or analyzed by the Biden administration.
    6
  777. Asian countries are generally very tough against drug trafficking and usage. That's frankly great, even if some of the policies are inspired by religious teachings. The world needs to go in that direction, as in going tougher on drugs.
    6
  778. Russia isn't communist these days, neither is China. But they glorify their communist past and prop up communist/socialist states still to this day. They're corrupt rogue states breaking all codes of ethics, laws and ettiquette to favor their position, power and global influence.

  781. That's what they're doing, at least economically. Opening up for tourism, investing billiions in projects internationally/abroad, and by taking over certain industries around the world. Their claws stretches wide.
    6
  782. Looking forward to see the artificial world that they'll create by a huge investment. A moon, flying cars, waves, and essentially a dream world intertwined in a city will be created. Huge plans involved in their efforts to diversify the economy prior to running out of oil.

  787. State capitalism at its finest ;') We all know that these massive corporations are controlled by CCP insight and that they won't move from China. It's their pride and main source of income. So the CCP can do whatever they want with these companies.

  788. Yeah, i'm sure the hoax is played along for the tourist money and to enrich Bosnia's national image, even if it's all based on an made-up lie debunked as pseudoarchaeological. Weird how even professional tennis players are willing to appear as superstitious psychics, believing in everything they see/hear.

  789. Favoritism to improve one's financial muscles and country's image. Interesting..I can see why the country is split here.

  790. Nobody should be able to create nuclear weapons. It's way too deadly and risky, especially if they end up in the wrong hands or are used on false premises such as if its usage is a retaliatory measure after a false interpretation of deepfaked footage. But anyone should be able to acknowledge that the creation of nuclear weapons isn't as risky if a stable and generally peaceful country does it, compare with e.g. Russia, North Korea or Iran.
    6
  791. These security bills are fantastic, we need more of them. Nobody should be able to humiliate and shame the police on malicious premises. Nobody should be able to terrorize police officers or their families because you don't agree with laws or the necessary action of arresting criminals. It's that simple. Freedom won't be depleted here, because serious journalists and individuals will still be able to criticize misconduct by the police and report on stories related to the police.
    6
  792. What the Supreme Court did is that they decided not to try the case in court. They decided to not investigate the lawsuit/claims nor provide an official verdict. Horribly incompetent, unprofessional and biased during a historical crisis, if you ask. The courts should at least examine the case...
    6
  793. World leaders are doing a whole lot about China. They're on a daily basis condemning their expansionist and imperialist policy. Top CCP officials are sanctioned all the time. Travel restrictions. Economic sanctions. Trade wars. Prohibition of Chinese applications and corporations. What more are you looking for, wars? That level of fearmongering isn't preferable nor a safe bet.
    6
  794. Losing a pointless war can't be great for a president's approval rating, that's for sure. I hope these calls to resign aren't warmongering actions.

  795.  @tenone7726  Because he has to signal that he's a feminist. That "women can do it too!!!". How does he do that? By appointing women that probably aren't as qualified as men, by discriminating against men and putting the nation in jeopardy in the process. Wow, good job Joe!

  796. The people are doing better than the corporate, lobbyist and corrupted government? That's a given. But...the people do vote for the government. At least in the US.

  797. If anyone listens to Kamala Harris political analyses or proposals on how to handle things, their opinions can justifiable be dismissed immediately.
    6
  798. Will negotiating with these radical militant groups such as the Taliban ever work out? Does anyone seriously believe that? Their goal is a suppressive caliphate and decisive Islamic control of everyone that they come in contact with. Peace, diplomacy and civility are all principles that likely will be thrown out by these sort of groups.
    6
  799. Trying to appeal to rationality and militant Islamists that burns down the nation for whatever trivial reason they can come up with, must be hard. If Pakistan's PM had some courage and judgement, he'd never appeal to domestic Pakistani radicals.

  800. I'm surprised that the Myanmar military hasn't initiated a strict armed crackdown against the dissenters, as they did back in 2016 against those committing acts of terror.

  801. They don't need to become weak, lazy and braindead, no. Drugs does exacerbate mental health issues and ruins one's physical capacity. That anyone would suggest such a destructive habit is coldhearted.

  802. This waste should be handled better, optimally in closed-off locations to prevent external entities from entering and messing up the process of recycling/reusing/sorting the waste, and to prevent poisoning themselves. But I suppose a country like Sri Lanka hasn't got the time and resources to prioritize protecting animals and using plastic/waste properly. Ask for assistance.

  805. I actually believe Musk when he says that he'd shutdown the company if it was used to breach people's privacy and spy. He's the most libertarian oriented private person out there, after all. He believes that restrictions against the corona is fascism. Kind of hysterical.
    6
  806. Hold innocent sailors hostage as leverage and threaten their nation to give concessions. That's Iran's despicable way of handling diplomacy, summarized. This is why Iran is an international pariah for the most part.
    6
  807. Another global recession (worse than the current one) would be inevitable if the largest country on earth's in-debt corporations were forced to default on their debt. I doubt it'll be allowed to happen without a fight. A big player crashing down on the market could also result in plenty of destabilizing and fast growing butterfly effects that negatively impacts global security/peace as well.
    6
  808. And vote to withdraw the envoy from France that weren't there. Or let the globe vote on international motions to "condemn islamophobia" because Macron is trying to secure his country. Turkey, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Iran, and their friends, are such jokes.

  809. We're truly in historical times. Enjoy the ride.

  810. This country needs to up their management of the entire aircraft industry, increase pilot training and implement better oversight. This may've been an unavoidable accident due to weather, we're unaware of the details at the moment. But crashes and irregularities within these Indonesian airlines isn't rare. The highest amount of deaths the past decade related to flying has been recorded in Indonesian airspace.
    6
  811. Not to mention the crime rate. And inevitably shift in cultural values. The establishment of ghettos, segregated areas and welfare dependency, etc. Not pleasant. But this was fully expected when Biden took office. Many are masochistic enough to pretend to like this.
    6
  812. Seems like they're punishing someone just for the sake of punishment, to make it appear as if some justice is served and that something is being done. The volcanic eruption were unpredictable and extremely unlikely. How about putting measures in place to prevent similar catastrophes? What about the responsibility of participating in these high-risk guided tours, is that non-existent? Feel free to fill me in if you've got further insight.

  814. Conservative statist here. Libertarians tend to advocate for destroying central banking systems, eliminating most taxes, and most importantly, removing public services/infrastructure/public spending. Perhaps that is why the "commies" have a problem with them. Or perhaps it has to do with their liberal stance on drug usage.

  820. I doubt Switzerland would condone money laundering without checks in place to counter such activity. They're one of the more credible nations on earth when it comes to integrity, credibility and following ethical/international guidelines. I'm sure there have been exceptions that has slipped through the cracks though.
    6
  821. The majority of migrants are economic migrants. Even if that wasn't the case, countries must realistically prioritize their own populations to prevent division and injustice. Priority 2 should be to prevent the factors that leads to migration streams.

  822. Let the project go on. We know it'll be beneficial. But why not provide housing, assistance and compensation to the people owning the homes that has to be demolished? Is that too much to ask for? Sounds like the Indonesian authorities has handled it poorly.

  823. Be careful when reading comments on the internet. Not everything is right or truthful.

  826. Negotiating with aggressive fundamentalists such as the Taliban is equivalent to negotiating with terrorists. I know that deescalation is highly desired, especially by the US after all these years but we also know how the Taliban rule prior to 2001 looked like. The population were in chains. Suffering. Forced to stay away from becoming educated. The question is how you establish a functioning system in a broken and plundered country such as Afghanistan, after all that has happened.

  827. Australia seems to be willing to uphold free trade and a fair relationship with China. China is seemingly targeted Australia because Australia suggested that an independent review of the coronavirus origin should be made, and that Australia should be held accountable in a way for what they did. How can anyone defend China in this..?
    5
  828. Elaborate on how China is morally righteous and in the right here? How is the West "hypocritical" in this specific case?
    5
  829. If only it were that easy. Many of these people seems unable to control their anger and animalistic cravings. Maybe it's time to control these individuals, deter them, and ensure that they behave properly next to women, by themselves, and in society.

  834. Lol, good luck negotiating with one of the more brutal dictatorships out there, Eritrea. They'll do whatever they want unless you force them to do otherwise, which a condemnation isn't.

  835. The government should implement a program where every person in the country is written into official records. If you're born, an automatic recognition where you're registered as a citizen would make more sense. These countries needs to establish more control in these areas.

  836. So you're not worried about what they might do if they retrieve nuclear weapons? WWIII? Global threats?

They've had to handle bloodbaths caused by psychopathic jihadists infiltrating France and blowing themselves up/attacking innocent residents. And you're calling out Macron for trying to keep his country safe? Repulsive to see. This is why the civilized world must cut ties with the non-civilized part that advocates for terrorism and revenge for their sickening superstitious fantasies.

  842. Sad. Who could've thought how dire the consequences of fallible wet markets and wildlife trade would be.

  844.  @alvaroobregon4596  Mexico's president is a complete failure. What are you talking about? He's legalized drugs, the murder rate had worsened, gangs are controlling the streets, obesity/poverty is widespread, and the country isn't unified at all. What a "great" leader huh!
    5
  845. Kyle Rittenhouse defended himself against a violent mob with convicted child molesters and toxic anarchists who thought that they could hurt and kill a person using his constitutional rights. Rittenhouse did nothing wrong. Neither did this police. The young guy who was shot had a warrant out for him. He had (as always) been involved in criminal circles and decided to not cooperate during a valid arrest.

  850. A description of the Argentinian nationalcapitalist military junta that ruled a few decades ago in the country and their economic policy: "Martínez de Hoz took measures to restore economic growth, reversing Peronism in favour of a free market economy. His economic measures were moderately successful. He eliminated all price controls and the exchange controls regime. The black market and shortages disappeared." Along with the law and order, civilized conduct being promoted, and stability that these regimes tends to lead to, it's almost a little sad to see that it lost power. Resorting to coups and brutal tactics against opponents is of course also unfortunate. But overall, Argentina would've likely been better off today and in the future with such a regime. Just look at the country today, it is currently in a horrific place because of the socialist direction that it has taken. Argentinians are leaving the country rapidly. Many won't stay for long. Corporations are shutting down and avoiding the country like the plague. Investors are looking elsewhere. The government has mass debt and shortages to tackle.

  852.  @Eusantdac  Not just corruption, Mexico is ruled by a leftist who believes in rehabilitation and second chances for these abominable murderers. That's why they're out on the streets. That's why nothing is done. That's why Mexico has one of the highest homicide rates in the world.

  855. Are they really "far-right"? Even if they are, why shouldn't objective reports be published? And why the heck are you asking a Qatari sponsored news organization to avoid publishing "far-right reports" when the country and the entire region is governed by such politics? lol Every theocratic dictatorship in the middle east punishes any groups and ideas that don't align with fundamentalist islam.

  858. The impoverished and socialist country Nepal where many of its politicians and the people are protesting because Oli's move was "undemocratic", sounds a bit contradictory. The country is ruled by socialist political parties, not known for precisely being "democratic".
    5
  859. Congratulations, Brits. You deserve it after all of these months of tough lockdowns. Hopefully the virus doesn't rebound now if the restrictions are eased too quickly.
    5
  860. That's Africa as a whole.
    5
  861. Equalizing economic disparity so everyone becomes poor on the same conditions has always turned out horribly. Why does every young populist keep buying into the idea that punishing wealth and seizing it to distribute it to the poor isn't always a great solution?
    5
  862. Lol, what does this have to do with racism? Thinking that this police intervention and the protests surrounding "police brutality" (lmao) has anything to do with countering racism, is entirely wrong and racist in itself. But congrats on without critical thinking buying into the media's false narrative, a narrative that entails protecting criminals.
    5
  863. Border disputes and governmental fights with militias/subversive groupings seems to never cease. It's an ongoing issue in way too many places.
    5
  864.  Hamid Hussein  If you're an apologist of these radical terror movements, you've likely been bred and raised through ignorance. Don't defend the senseless acts of murdering innocents and upholding a stagnated situation in the middle east.
    5
  865. They interpret Islam in the most strict fashion and is willing to spread the ideas, by force, everywhere. That's why so much bloodshed is seen. So much innocent life lost. You can't say that the rebel group has nothing to do with Islam when islam's teachings is what the rebels are based off of.
    5
  866. China's actions are rational and defensible in Hong Kong if you look on the insane demands, actions and destruction that the past years anti-government forces has caused, together with USA, UK and the hostile West inciting the action while simultaneously condemning similar groups at home.
    5
  867. Criminal hooligans acting with impunity IS the problem, NOT the police. Dante Wright was the problem here. His actions. Not the police.
    5
  868. Removing signs and activities associated with a radical doctrine will decrease the radical doctrine's prevalence. That's common sense. Good job, Sri Lanka.
    5
  869. Tolerate extreme dissenting religions and movements in a country, and these barbaric attacks are inevitable. Has Sri Lanka taken any measures to proactively handle extremists? The country constitutes of mainly buddhists, a group who tend to be tolerant and maintain a let-go stance towards most things. So I'd be surprised if the government has done what it takes.
    5
  870. And Iran won't follow it anyway, if it doesn't benefit the Iranian state and their fundamentalist agenda.
    5
  871. The fact that increased temperatures, warmer summers and longer summers is occurring due to human impact and emissions, is an established causation. But do you seriously think that global warming means that cold winters won't occur anymore? If so, do some research, since you're unqualified to comment on the matter
    5
  872. Are the opposition in Congo dismissed as conspiracy theorists and banned from social media for claiming that fraud has occurred? That's exactly what happened to Trump and his supporters after the 2020 presidential election.
    5
  873.  @scotthenderson292  The smugglers and traffickers obviously. I don't think anyone would disagree with that.
    5
  874. Let's abolish communism!
    5
  875. About 33% of women in the West does an abortion several times in their life, which indicates that these women aren't acting morally or responsibly when living. They don't care that they may become pregnant by staying in high-risk relationships. They don't care about about having to remove innocent fetuses and babies with a conscience, developed body parts and a beating heart from this world. Abortion laws that prevents pointless and evil elimination of fetuses should be in place. But there should of course be exceptions.
    5
  876. Nope. We don't need promiscuous, selfish and sexually obsessed animals with no concern for civility or life. Dehumanizing of innocent groups is unacceptable. Don't want a pregnancy? Behave in a way that prevent such an outcome. Not hard.
    5
  877. Ok....? What does that have to do with the video? Think before you speak
    5
  878. Such people should be removed from society. They're a palpable threat, evil, and has the type of attitude that ruins the moral fabric. They have zero value of life.
    5
  879. He's a muslim cleric with a fanatical following. A leader, if you will. A person with disproportionate power.
    5
  880. The NGO seems to have had ties to liberal train of thought and LGBT, which is why ties were cut. These NGOs needs to stay neutral and focus on their assignment of helping and protecting the vulnerable, rather than shoehorning unwanted political values in a country. Russia cut ties to a similar NGO recently, but for worse and unjustified reasons from what I recall.
    5
  881. Let's export Black Lives Matter to a country like Nigeria, where it belongs. And let's export 4th wave feminism to MENA.
    5
  882. A "socialist economist" is almost like an oxymoron though. Most educated people rejects socialism. Especially most economists. Is he really educated?
    5
  883. Has Bolsonaro been prosecuted and impeached yet for letting this fatal situation occur?
    5
  884.  @mistycloud4455  And the authorities hasn't prioritized basic maintenance for planes/regulatory bodies, has a lack of oversight and has undermined aircraft safety/security. EU has banned Indonesian airlines from flying there, from 2007-2018. USA has downgraded Indonesia's airline safety rating. Lots to rectify.
    5
  885. Imperialism should be seen as the new taboo. Then we wouldn't have to spend as much on military equipment.
    5
  886.  @firstcommenter202  No, that was a stupid point. People dying from a pandemic isn't the same as people dying by an ineffective economic policy and by deliberate executions, as Mao instigated. Look at what reprehensible actions you're excusing here.
    5
  887. Migrants, criminals and the young tend to be liberal. There's a classical old saying, something along the lines of "a liberal is someone who haven't been robbed yet". I think it's quite striking. When people wake up and face the reality of humanity and how societies operate, you'll quickly abandon your liberal viewpoints.
    5
  888. The candidate with the best economic policy and moral character. The candidate most likely to solve contemporary and future issues.
    5
  889. Why? Israel isn't as dangerous or threatening to the rest of the world compared with Iran's constant attacks, threats, and use of their military force to spread terrorism in the region. Israel/US has mostly peaceful intents, Iran can't express the word "peace". Yet you're out here trying to compare the vastly different entities. That's what's laughable.
    5
  890. Can't recall exactly what he said. But I presume Abiy meant that Ethiopia didn't call on the Eritrean troops to enter, but rather that Eritrean troops entered at their own volition to maintain stability near the Eritrean->Ethiopian border.
    5
  891. Military junta vs. Bob the builder
    5
  892. Andres Arauz, a revolutionary idealist who thinks it's a good move to default on a country's debt and execute economic policies that are bound to fail and have failed historically. Doesn't sound like a good choice of a canditate...
    5
  893. Has the Mexican government and judicial system the past couple of years ever done anything right? Planning to legalize drugs, failing in handling the coronavirus, saying that "hugs not bullets" should be used to handle heavy criminals and gangs, and enforces left-wing policy.
    5
  894. Mexico is not a very safe country though. Gangs controls the country, murderers are almost everywhere when you look at the homicide rate. But yes, the Taliban isn't in control. That's something.
    5
  895.  @jonathanng138  The majority of Hong Kongers opposes the riots and the movement against the government.
    5
  896. Valid arrests and sentences. These people have blocked roads, threatened critics, used violence, attacked the police, and sabotaged the city of Hong Kong. Even though the extradition bill were suspended and withdrawn rapidly. These people are rioting to investigate the police, force the police to drop the term "riots" when referring to the riots, and release violent prisoners. How can anyone support that?
    5
  897. Kim Jong Un doesn't even want to talk with Biden. Russia and its state are completely furious at Biden and demands an apology for Biden's statements on ABC yesterday surrounding Putin's character and alleged foreign interference in the 2020 presidential election (interference by China/Iran that benefitted Biden, and from Russia). Diplomacy with the US seems to be deteriorating more than it did under Trump. Doesn't look good.
    5
  898. 13:49 Guess the gender game
    5
  899. Taliban logic.* They're picking and choosing what to allow and stand for based on what's opportunistically convenient. Isn't that haram?
    5
  900. Disgusting. We're sacrificing our people, resources, capital and our own efforts to philanthropically assist the undeveloped part of the world. And this is how some of the rabid residents responds. With hatred and violence.
    5
  901. The result of statehood: another extremely liberal state, D.C, would receive federal influence and further representation in Congress, benefitting the democratic party and cementing a political direction that half of the country opposes. Making these changes seems unnecessary.
    5
  902. Europe didn't start war in these countries. Europe didn't create militant jihadists. Intervening to prevent terrorism in one's own countries, around the globe, and to help out citizens from being destroyed, is defensible.
    5
  903. Good. Even the liberal loving Dutch people seems to believe that these race-baiting movements has taken it too far. When movements starts going after innocent and harmless traditions, you have to step your foot down harshly.
    5
  904. Complaining about "blackface" highlights that some of these people (feminists, leftists, marxist-sympathizers) have it too good in the modern era. They're spoiled, entitled and think that complaining about trivial non-issues will bring any positive change, rather than unnecessary divisions between various groups. Nobody is hurt by this harmless tradition. Nobody is demonized or made fun of by this harmless tradition. That this is a topic of conservation is a shame for humanity.
    5
  905. Do the middle east solution. Create artificial islands, build walls next to the sea, and avoid building houses near the sea.
    5
  906. The US economy is still miles ahead of China's. Around a 6 trillion dollar difference annually in terms of GDP rate. Although China is growing at a faster rate. But right now, US has the main say, power and leverage over everyone.
    5
  907. They seem to be rushing it, just like China and Russia. The clinical trial results hasn't been published. The efficacy of the Indian vaccine hasn't been showcased with transparency.
    5
  908. Great stuff. Their high ability to speak english is impressive.
    5
  909. Take a look at what people are out cheering for her. At the beginning of the video, for example. Lots of mentally unwell folks who are trying to let the judicial system characterize Spears as mentally fit. That's irony on several levels when you think about it.
    5
  910. Many are not educated enough to understand the message. Many aren't connected, up to date, nor well-read. Many aren't able to do anything else other than trying to improve their situation by moving.
    5
  911. Wake up and do what, oppose vaccines, remove all restrictions, and let people die because the virus is a "hoax"? That's what these insidious people tend to suggest when they're talking about sheep and waking up in reference on the pandemic.
    5
  912. People treat them differently because of the inability or limited ability to communicate, learning issues, and because they don't fit within the average group of people and its characteristics. Human nature, sadly, looks down upon that to protect the group (it isn't always justified). This leads to and endless and unacceptable cycle of bullying and ostracization. Glad to see that this girl seems to have overcome the obstacles and keeps doing her thing.
    5
  913. One good thing that Russia did once upon a time was to prohibit superstitious and regressive religion. They replaced it with communism which is worse than most religious beliefs, but at least they did something to counter religious influence. Perhaps they should go back and adopt that one value from their bloody communist era.
    5
  914. Exactly my thoughts. Racists in favor of pro-affirmative action, individuals adjacent to the terrorist BLM movement and un-american people such as Kamala are the opposite of "icons" to any sensible person.
    5
  915. Stop allowing migration flows which only exacerbates the social issues and instability for everyone involved. Limit the sources and factors that leads to migration.
    5
  916.  @scotthenderson292  Biden already did instigate an uprising and incite his marxist friends, and will do it again. Did you forget the BLM terrorists that destroyed several cities and states back in 2020 because some convict lost his life by his own despicable actions? Stores were plundered, courts/governmental buildings burned down, businesses depleted, $2b in property damage, incitements/insurgency at D.C. But yeah, let's pretend that Trump's neutral and completely normal statements, prior to a planned demonstration regarding the irregularities and lack of investigations into a disputed presidential election, "is" the problem. 🤡
    5
  917. Begone with the self-advertising and emotional manipulation. Bring those spam tactics elsewhere, preferably the trash bin.
    5
  918. Lots of this is happening in the shadows, and the migrant workers can't always communicate (language issues) or raise alarm of poor conditions. Many are also used to significantly worse conditions in their home countries, and are therefore complacent with the poor and unhygienic, by Western standards, that they may live in when working abroad.
    5
  919. Maybe you're talking about different groups of people. Coming "out of the woodwork" tends to be done when a person dies, you know. Many support the guy, some despise his irresponsible conduct. Oh, and he was a communist and Castro supporter with dictators tattooed on his legs.
    5
  920. The men and particularly the women that believe that it is a right to have careless intercourse in order to then end up aborting the innocent baby that you created, shouldn't be allowed to operate freely in society. Reprehensible that this was allowed. But this is normalized in the entire West. The West should never talk about morality with the self-righteous smugness that it tends to entail, ever again, when they're openly fine with industrialized murder.
    5
  921.  @sicparvismagna5786  Credit where credit's due, you can't scorn the governments for doing what it takes to protect their country and people from the outbreak.
    5
  922. If France deescalates their full-on offensive against islamic terrorism, an Eiffel tower collapse may not be impossible to occur. But France is taking such threats seriously nowadays, so it won't happen, luckily.
    5
  923. They can't. Myanmar and their army have been quite tame and accepting towards their population, considering that they're described as a dictatorial hellish regime. Such a regime would use live rounds, tanks and air strikes to crush opposition, right? We haven't seen that. And most regimes on earth uses the type of anti-riot equipment, crackdowns and responses that we've seen in Myanmar. Mass arrests. Surveillance. Water cannons. Rubber bullets launched. They can't be held accountable internationally for such actions.
    5
  924. So 260M bombs weren't enough to prevent the communist insurgency in Asia. Wars are dirty and horrible, but I wonder how much the world would suffer today if we hadn't got several strong military forces putting in all effort to minimize communist influence on the global stage. Props to those who made sacrifices.
    5
  925. Neither is smoking. Or wildlife trade. Or using animals crushed horns/ivory to create pretend medicine. Lots to change in Chinese culture.
    5
  926. UK couldn't have failed more than they did in this pandemic, apart from if they basically didn't respond at all (like Sweden). First, the government waits too long to implement a lockdown, instead going for a 'natural herd immunity strategy'. That turned out to be a death sentence for the nation, so the government closed everything down. Then opened up too rapidly. Shutdown. Opened up without clarity and the proper instructions (instructions that the PM even couldn't repeat or remember). Tracking the virus in some regions were halted after an Excel document crashed. I feel bad for the UK and its weak government.
    5
  927.  @staszekdupka5137  What is the problem in prosecuting a person that has infringed upon a country's values, hurt other people, and only caused destruction throughout one's existence? There's no alternative other than removing the person unless you're fine with threats remaining within society.
    5
  928. That's cute. A source of income for performers, bringing a smile to the purchasers.
    5
  929. Considering what Obama, ex-presidents and establishment politicians had done to this country, Trump's legally and democratically seizing power was a great thing. It's just unfortunate that so many roadblocks placed out by the establishment blocked Trump's path. Much more should've been done.
    5
  930. Comey is the last person i'd take seriously or listen to when it comes to important matters, especially political matters, after all of his lies, misconduct, and illegal actions taken when he led the FBI. Why is he being interviewed?
    5
  931. Nope. Every sensible person sees this balanced agreement as a promising deal formed during a critical time, after nearly going past the deadline. Don't be a contrarian. "We hate x, x said y, so y must be bad". That way of thinking is childishly embarrassing.
    5
  932. Because the perception that "racism exists" is used to defend subversive movements, violent actions, actions that includes defending criminals rightfully shot or rendered harmless by the police. Because it leads to unwarranted victim narratives. It creates the notion that society is out for you (it isn't) based on racial lines. It implies that racism is widespread and common in the West (it isn't, although that a look at Africa, SA, and Asia for actual racism, and the prevalence of actual slavery, 40M slaves today). You can't use a couple of racist comments online to claim that racism exists or that it unjustifiably impacts people in society. Like, come on.
    5
  933.  @Sunmoon-gj9gy  Kathy Griffin? Snoop Dogg and Jesse's music video? Those who supported the violent riots during the summer in 2020? There's so many examples of ruthless threats directed at Trump and his base. Nobody really cared. The same people are now going after a congressperson for posting a JOKE.
    5
  934. Wow, what a strong and competent woman!
    5
  935. Yep. People should have their driving licenses removed if they can't control their anger and instincts. Gotta encourage civilized driving and tactful treatment of others, including on the road.
    5
  936. Swine/bird flu transmitting to humans seems to be very rare. Unless mutated viruses starts to develop creating another pandemic, the food industry will probably not change that much.
    5
  937. Overrated. The individuals that decided to insult and transgress Saudi Arabian law knew what they were doing and are now reaping the consequences. I'm not a big fan of religious fundamentalism, but let countries handle their own judiciary and system of governing themselves, as long as the world isn't unfairly or dangerously infringed upon by the country in question. The same policy should apply to every stable and legitimized country.
    5
  938. Why do people keep blaming the Yemeni war on Saudi Arabia, UAE, the US and its friends that provides arms/weapons to neutralize the insurgency in Yemen? The Houthis and its supporters are the culprits and those who've started up the reprehensible conflict in the country. They're the ones who should be pointed towards and handled.
    5
  939. Yeah! Let the people suffer to death! As long as we humiliate the West, that's all that matters, right! Do you realize how idiotic that sounds? But ok, go ahead and destroy another country with a toxic ideology to satisfy a spiteful and nonsensical agenda.
    5
  940. They should stop supporting illegal and violent militias abroad. They're causing nothing but pointless destabilization and human suffering with such tactics.
    5
  941. Were she incapable of swimming? Experienced a stroke? No lifejacket used?
    5
  942. Biden's fiscal and budget priorities when it comes to job creation will probably be similar to Trump's, apart from Biden raising some taxes and occasionally appealing to the left-wing base by extra welfare cheques and social programs. And that's not to mention the plenty of straight up risky social/cultural stances that Biden occupies, that will infringe upon America to a dangerous extent...
    5
  943. Probably not. But it can't be ruled out, because Antifa and their associates are one of the most shameless, depraved and hostile group out there.
    5
  944. Who in their right mind and on what premises are they accusing the doctor for? Diverting from Maradona's poor health, drug-abuse and own decisions into blaming a scapegoat. Typical humanity.
    5
  945. Not really. Dems has tried to unconstitutionally and illegally seize power and remove the president since he was sworn in. They can't talk. Voter fraud did occur in this election, but not on a systematic scale. The question is if enough fraud did occur to warrant recounts, new elections or annulation of the results. Especially when we know that many migrants and criminals has voted...for the Democratic party.
    5
  946. Systematic fraud hasn't occurred. Occasional fraud, irregularities, cheating and potential false signatures leading to ballots counted has occurred, which could sway some states.
    5
  947. It's kind of sad that there's traction and demand for these desperate activities. But the human nature of craving social interaction and the willingness to emulate one's old lifestyle of travelling, experiencing and trying new things out, is hard to go against.
    5
  948. Will Israel allocate an increase of funds to their secret nuclear stockpile development? hmmmm
    5
  949. Now we've gotta wait and speculate where Iran will strike with artillery, missiles or air raids, to avenge. Iran has promised to avenge and it is coming. The world became significantly more unstable yesterday. A war or worsened conflicts are not unlikely at all. I can see why it may be needed to remove these sort of personnel and actors in the Iranian military branch to uphold peace, but the question is if these actions are to prefer when there are huge risks.
    5
  950. China blocked a UN resolution condemning Myanmar's military's actions yesterday lol
    5
  951. Will a Biden administration uphold the US recognition of Morocco's claims to West Sahara, a location and claim that no other Western country has recognized? Will Biden's suspension lead to Morocco upholding their newly formed ties with Israel, or go back to square one? Some questions that it'd be interesting to hear an answer to.
    5
  952. The question is if this was worth it. 3 Iranian Islamists for one Western citizen. The world just became less safer today.
    5
  953. Good. Saves resources and prevents suffering. The only worry is that those who aren't sick and those who use manipulative tactics to receive approval to be euthanized could abuse it. But that's presumably thought about, and likely prevented. Only those in dire irreversible conditions should be able to go through with it.
    5
  954. A normal day in Iraq, in other words. No wonder why the US implemented a travel ban and restrictions against Iraq, among other countries. But now the ban's rescinded under Biden. Congratulations!
    5
  955. Being Israel's president wasn't his best achievement, I'd say. But working to deescalate tensions around the world is always a good thing.
    5
  956. The Myanmar military has nothing to lose. Creating such a condition isn't clever for those trying to control them.
    5
  957. Global warming isn't necessarily natural ;) But yes, you're right.
    5
  958. The WTO has essentially given the US the upper hand in this dispute, after it was declared that the EU illegally had subsidized their own industries by violating WTO rules and benefitting European companies in an unfair way. So the EU can't complain with much leverage here.
    5
  959. Look at the strength of collective unity where every entity is aware of their task and performs it flawlessly to benefit themselves and the group. Humanity should take notes.
    5
  960. Liberals loves when courts and officials makes decisions in line with their agenda. They're very pleased about this undemocratic and questionable decision by SCOTUS. Remember, liberals has claimed voter fraud, that Trump cheated, and that Trump colluded with the Russians, for years. Their goal? Shame, accuse, impeach and remove President Trump. And now they're speaking against every accusation of fraud from the right. They're undermining election insecurity. They're fine with criminals/illegals voting for them. All of a sudden, sworn affidavits, testimonies and substantiated accusations don't matter. Disgusting.
    5
  961. Complaining about imaginary oppression in the most free, equal and fair societies on earth.
    5
  962. Europe would never dare prohibiting barbaric elements from two of the influential religions that dictates too much of European policy. It'll never happen. Courage and backbone would have to be grown for that.
    5
  963. You can't reason or negotiate with these walking psychopaths. Look at the depravity in his way of thinking. He's ok with his obscene and inhumane actions. He's not afraid of punishment or death. He thinks he'll be awarded for his ill deeds. Immediate neutralization after a quick verdict is the way for a court and country to handle these cases.
    5
  964. It really hasn't. Most of China's population like their government. Dissent is rare. Hong Kongers does even for the most part support the new security legislation imposed by China. UK should leave the territory and be quiet if they can't support well-needed policies to reinforce stability, growth and civilized order.
    5
  965. Everyone should cut ties with the country so these actions can't be taken by Iran. Force them to start behaving like a civilized country.
    5
  966. This is insane. The treatment and experience that these accused defendants will see should be completely irrelevant when it comes to these crucial top trials. Would we take into account the mental state of a murderer when filing charges and holding him accountable?
    5
  967. Moral of the story: Avoid positioning yourself in the crossfire between rioters and the police, even if you're determined to document the action. Oh, and bring protective gear to keep yourself safe.
    5
  968. Horrible. Must be scary to live in geographical areas prone to these natural disasters. It's very costly in terms of lives and economic losses. The the last thing that a relatively poor country needs. RIP.
    5
  969. Initiatives for gamers, cool. They're one of the most oppressed minorities in the world, after all.
    5
  970. An innovative vein able to flourish, to a degree, in Afghanistan. Cool!
    5
  971. This is good and all. Making sure that every societal member can participate in society and enrich themselves/others, is a plus worth encouraging. But why is WION reporting on the same story several times a day? So irritating and spammy.
    5
  972.  CDS Pvt  WWIV will be fought with sticks and stones if WWIII breaks out.
    5
  973. I hope you're kidding. Why should women be given special treatment and encouraged to join a sector that they generally aren't interested in which requires a physical capacity that many women don't have? Women are liberated in the West. This isn't about empowerment.
    5
  974. The mafia were barely an issue under fascist Italy with Mussolini at the top. Practically erased. While fascism may not be the ideal solution, certain elements of the ideology such as the collective authoritarianism and zero tolerance against wrongdoing, certainly is. But that's currently still stigmatized.
    5
  975. This country and other parts of Africa has declared themselves as Ebola/virus-free many times in the past, turning out to be completely wrong. So take this with a grain of salt. There's probably undisclosed cases, and it'll continously transmit if people engage in careless intercourse and drug use. I hope i'm wrong though.
    5
  976. The question to ask and analyze: Which company benefits the most by the current policy? I'd guess that the media corporations profits a lot by being widely shared on the internet. If you force the internet platforms to pay extra for people's action of freely sharing your news, you may be dropped entirely, leading to further economic stagnation for the media corporation. Have they thought this through?
    5
  977. Let the already established companies boost the EV market. Waste of time to try and copy the ideas and create one's own companies when alternatives already exist. Focus on building infrastructure so the Indian market is more compatible to the West.
    5
  978. Anyone should be able to practise and participate in whatever culture they like. But drinking beer and messing around in this sleazy way is just depraved.
    5
  979. Cool. If the individuals don't want to contribute in Myanmar and instead emigrate abroad, any housing should be welcomed and accepted in a grateful manner if a country provides it. Yet "rights groups" keeps on complaining about all initiatives, and launches questionable accusations against the Myanmar army.
    5
  980. Cracking down on parasitic fraud and exploitation of the welfare system is great. Punish the violators swiftly. But that should never entail punishing those in actual need of the welfare.
    5
  981. Italy is not catching any breaks this year.
    5
  982. These Gulf states knows this more than anybody else and are already preparing by creating industries that can replace the oil sector. The question is if the limited education and competence that exists in these countries will be enough to compete with the rest of the world and stay afloat, without the extraction of fossil fuels. Debatable.

  983. I don't really mind this because police brutality implies that police officers are going in rough against criminal perpetrators, spoiled rioters and entities that don't adheres to basic guidelines of respect and decency. We need laws that protects our police. Laws that prevents shaming for no reason, threats, ways of hindering the police from doing their job and the BLM-trend that implies standing behind criminals by shouting against the police force. Macron is on the right track here.

  984. Better take advantage and find out about these historical tales, fossils, artifacts and discoveries before the sun explodes!

  985. Two strongmen up against each other with no will to ever back down, is never a good sign. I wonder which side in the Libyan conflict that'd be the best for the country. Haftar, backed by some dictatorships and democracies? Or the GNA, backed by UN, Turkey and mostly democracies?

  986. Warmongering isn't great.

  987. Respecting sovereignty, strengthening diplomatic ties and avoiding conflict. That's how you do it. Good job Macron
    5
  988. I wouldn't call them racist, but there's a reason why crime practically is non-existent in countries such as Japan and South Korea. Everyone and their values is the same. Collectivism runs strong. Homogeneity and tradition is cherished, rather than demolished. It has its benefits.
    5
  989. The court battles aren't finished entirely and Congress has to confirm the electors.

  990. This channel is never discussing the rape epidemic in India. It's definitely something to tackle. Root out the attitude that leads one down a dark road believing it's correct to rape, monitor the population more (troops, surveillance), and punish all the culprits severely. Corruption is also very common in India which has to be removed to serve justice to the fullest extent.
    5
  991. Yes. Why are you typing in caps..?
    5
  992. The only way to stop political Islam to is to prevent all the factors that proliferates its radicalization, by control and by enforcing legislation that upholds public order and safety. No Western countries has got this right yet..apart from Hungary and Poland.
    5
  993. Are the Pfizer/BionTech, Moderna, and Astrazeneca vaccines too expensive for Equador to order?
    5
  994. Big news for sure. Has Tedros been involved in and endorsed TPLF throughout its time where it has committed atrocities and illegalities against the country and its people? Has he condemned the organizations radical arm? If not..this isn't a good look for him, WHO and the world's future.
    5
  995. India has a huge rape and violence epidemic. Harshly cracking down on such cultural values is needed. A reform to the caste system may also be effective to prevent oppression/discrimination. We'll never see WION report about these issues though.

  996. "I have coronavirus antibodies in my organism" Aww 😂😂 Thanks for your sacrifice in trying out the high-risk Russian vaccine, I guess.
    5
  997. Why reproduce when you're living in the most unstable circumstances ever?

  998. Bolsonaro is behaving as if the coronavirus isn't deadly. As if it doesn't exist. He's living in a separate reality.

  999. Not Chinese citizens ;) They'll be propagandized and indoctrinated by the CCP-approved educational system lol

  1000.  @pnellferguson7222  This type of thinking, with no basis or evidence involved, is the problem that results in paranoia. Why would these world leaders lie? What proof do you have for your insinuations? None. No matter what officials do (such as taking the vaccine on live television), what health officials say, or how much proof is delivered that the vaccine is safe, these ignorant conspiracy theorists will always come up with some BS argument as to why we shouldn't trust the science and avoid the vaccines. This conduct should be regulated away from the discourse for everyone's sanity and health.
    5
  1001. Maybe because religious figures aren't behind these outcomes?
    5
  1002. The US and its president receives a whole lot of criticism for his trade wars. Why isn't the same criticism applied on the UK, Australia, Canada and its friends? The wars may differ in scale, but let's have some consistency. I'm sure it's valid to be skeptical and careful when it comes to importing security equipment from an enemy such as China. But the question is how much restrictions in trade are necessary.
    5
  1003. What's Indians thoughts on Modi? Do you support him, is he doing his job properly, should someone replace his political position?
    5
  1004. India literally voted against declaring the Myanmar situation as a "coup" in the UN, along with Russia, Vietnam and China. And now India are pretending to care about the unrest as if they're on the West's side? Kind of strange.
    5
  1005. Find one that isn't.
    5
  1006. Racism is barely existent in the West. It's an extreme rarity. A bunch of unsubstantiated theories and inaccurate conclusions doesn't prove that racism is widespread. In fact, UK is one of the least racist countries on earth.
    5
  1007. Not really. China would've done this either way without objection. They don't need to take advantage of a crisis to do so. This crisis does however highlight the efficacy in these practises, rather than its contentious connotations.
    5
  1008. To an extent should people's rights and freedom be respected, yes. But not too much, which is a mistake that the West has done.
    5
  1009. Stability created by clear guidelines and centralization. I'm no fan of Vietnam's way of previously and still occasionally flirting with Communist ideas, but I do have to concede that their strong and authoritarian system where the collective population is highly valued and cared for, worked wonders. Any country, no matter their economic and social policy, should adopt the structures that enables this type of anti-virus strategy.
    5
  1010. Effective and streamlined nations. Beautiful. We need more of that. Big fan of the PM, too, Kaja Kallas. Hottie.
    5
  1011.  @redwoodpartisan2433  Ignorance, because they believe that the welfare handouts will benefit them and the country, and due to indoctrination. Leftism has spread its poisonous tentacles in way too many places around the world. Its presence seems to gradually deteriorate, but it's still way too potent. Argentina is a decent example. Although I do have to concede that the Argentinian government has at least done their best to handle the coronavirus by enforcing national lockdowns and systems of quarantine. Can't deny that. The effectiveness of doing so is however contested, perhaps due to the restrictions having been imposed too late.
    5
  1012. This guy's great. There's some forceful and out of place jokes every now and then, but it's all with good intentions. Topics are covered broadly with factual perspectives. It's interesting to watch it all. He couldn't have chosen better hosts.
    5
  1013. The Sweden approach has been destructive and inhumane. One of the worst per capita rates in the world. Anyone glorifying the strategy over there is a coldhearted human being that defies science. The country's health institute has behaved in an exceptionally incompetent manner the past 6 months, opposed mask usage, thrashed other successful nations for shutting down their nations, and made false assessments/calculations over and over again. A complete failure.

  1014. This quote doesn't apply in this scenario unless you replace "politicians" with "drug addicts & troublemakers".

  1015. So what's the solution? War? Suspending sanctions which strengthens DPRK's nuclear arsenal, leverage and position further? It's no easy task to tackle.
    5
  1016. Wonder how things would look today in Italy if Il Duce's legacy carried on after WWII up until now.
    5
  1017. The Saudi state isn't the threat. They're not using these weapons in malicious manners that jeopardizes global peace just because they're neutralizing the Houthi rebels in Yemen or defending their interests against Iran. The threat consists of their global influence that impacts countries, such as the Saudi Arabia's (private donors & potential ties to the state) contributions to religious indoctrination abroad by supporting radical imams and the creation of unwanted mosques–something that any country could put an end to if they wished to do so.

  1018. Gotta live up to the British stereotype :)

  1019. America still thinks that you mostly can change people's mind by voluntary encouragements.
    5
  1020. Sub-prime loans handed out, low credit being permitted by banks, and investing companies seizing houses after eviction isn't occurring in South Korea as far as I know. These practises were the main culprits that caused the US housing bubble and accordingly the financial crisis.
    5
  1021. Don't submit useless statements like that. This video is backed up by several news reports and studies, and a thorough analyses of what's happening. How is it "irrelevant"? Sounds like i'm arguing with a pre schooler, lol.
    5
  1022. Feel free to ask away.
    5
  1023. Drones to patrol and surveil your own population to make sure that recommendations are adhered to. For once, I gotta give props to Turkey. Every country should've done this early on to prevent spread.
    5
  1024. Has the Putin regime ever listened to protesters demands? Seems very improbable that anything will change. Navalny were charged and jailed for violating parole while in coma. Let that sink in.
    5
  1025. Tasteless. Is it so hard to do what's right and minimize the spread? Frustrating to see these greedy brats just being concerned for themselves.
    5
  1026. Good on Peru and its authorities for making many sacrifices to protect themselves and the world from this prolonged outbreak. Respect. Hope the Peruvian people can manage a little longer, until the vaccines are here.
    5
  1027. Only if Hamas, PA, and the terrorist apologists in Palestine are held accountable too. When comparing Palestine/Israel, it's clear who the culprits are and where the danger is at. That said, I don't think Israel should continue provoking their enemies or expand territory.
    5
  1028. Palestine and its authorities proudly commits dozens of crimes against humanity all the time. So don't use that term when talking about the Israel-Palestine conflict in a slightly biased anti-zionist manner.
    5
  1029. What are they even calling for? Amazon are one of the companies that provides one the highest wages on average. That's quite noteworthy considering how low qualifications you need to have in order to work there. Amazon pays workers at least $15 per hour. Hard to take this seriously when black lives matter advocates are involved too. Go after Amazon's tax evasion tactics, market manipulation, anti-trust breaches and corruption all you like. I don't think that's what's happening here though.

  1030. Magnus Carlsen, the Philipphines edition. I wish you and your family the best!
    5
  1031. An old lady taking the vaccine and being interviewed, a man name William Shakespeare also making the news. Sounds like the vaccine planners or the media had this in mind when releasing the vaccine. Creating history by letting certain individuals be first. Turn it into a big deal. It's huge news and all, but some of the interviews seems so forced.
    5
  1032. Opinions aside, the conversation comes across as a little forced. As if they've been told to be curious of each others and ask leading questions. Did anyone notice that?
    5
  1033.  @incelproud2670  It's a back and forth relationship. The tech platforms can dictate how the government is shaped like to an extent, while the tech platforms adjusts themselves to avoid being regulated and handled by the government. If the tech giants are pressured by politicians, interest groups and the mob to censor someone (Trump) for his contentious views, they'll make up a reason to censor this person to satisfy these different groups, to avoid regulation, to rake in cash and to stay clean. Morals and fairness? Totally thrown out. Trump should've intervened with these volatile companies from the beginning. He talked about censorship and its problems for years. Nothing was realistically done. I know SCOTUS and Congress blocked many of his proposals, but more could've surely been done. The socialist/left-wing takeover is now here. The purge is incoming.
    5
  1034. Pushing down illiteracy rates is crucial for a society to become advanced, competitive and for people to understand each other. It should be the top priority for these countries in Asia and Africa, rather than spending cash on religious events or traditions. That's the type of foreign aid that can be defended.
    5
  1035. It doesn't, unless you implement very strict gun laws with tough controls, surveillance and background checks/training programs, sort of like in Switzerland. Even so, you won't counter the core of the issue, a high homicide and crime rate committed by certain groups of people in lawless areas. What works would be to send in an increased presence of military troops or police officers to erase the violence, to act proactively with social programs to catch those wandering down the wrong road, and to prohibit cultural elements that fuels wrongdoing.
    5
  1036.  @tyrionlannister6459  He can't, because he's a liar spreading fake news. These people need to be regulated away from society for everyone's best.
    5
  1037.  @dibayad5130  How so? You can't just say that things are a "lie" without explaining which part or providing any information. That's just useless.
    5
  1038. Hong Kong is very free and autonomous if you're willing to contribute, live in peace and behave in a civilized law-abiding manner. If not, I presume leaving and starting to live in the crime-apologistic West may be the answer for you.
    4
  1039. I wonder how much of a role that NGOs from Sweden, Spain and Norway have, along with the support from Libya and Algeria to uphold the Polisario Front and therefore enabling its existence and this conflict. Is it appropriate to send funds and support to these groups? Are further warfare worth it?
    4
  1040. Glad that these medical procedures and ability to recover from harsh conditions are available. Medicine and healthcare these days is so incredibly advanced compared to just a couple of decades ago. Lots of pain and misfortune can be mitigated.
    4
  1041. Australia's demands here are irrational. I can see why Google is annoyed.
    4
  1042. Good. The Russian collusion theory was always a conspiratorial hoax, an illegal witch hunt based on shaky grounds which has been disproven over and over again. Anyone who touted the theory ought to apologize and those who got unconstitutionally entrapped by the spying campaigns and unethical conduct by the FBI and federal authorities deserves a pardon, even if they incompetently managed to lie about their whereabouts or what they did at a certain time when interviewed by the FBI or Congress.
    4
  1043. No, these people were pardoned because they were charged for politically motivated reasons. The Russian collusion scandal was a shameless and deceptive investigation that tainted the US reputation and will always be seen as an embarrassment to those who know what happened.
    4
  1044. They won't. They'll be rightfully worried if China starts militarizing space though. Space imperialism, no thanks. That's why the US is building out a military force meant for space exploration and to protect its own personnel, projects and uphold a fair and level playing field in space.
    4
  1045. Systemic racism isn't a thing in the United States. Systematic would imply that active discrimination and disadvantages for a certain race/group existed, which there's no data or indications to prove. None. This conformation (among many others) just proves that even further. Yet the progressive feminist advocates and identity politicians keeps on using the narrative to score symbolic political points by appealing to the masses, by making up things, not shaping their stance based off of scientific consensus, and using their kneejerk emotions.
    4
  1046. Why would you trust a vaccine manufactured in South Africa, one of the more undeveloped, corrupt and regressive countries in the world? Is it some sort of blind and fake pride? Nationalism? Because it makes no sense. The vaccines from Europe and North America are significantly better, and safer. Convincing yourself otherwise won't change that.
    4
  1047. Navalny is a civic nationalist, the type of ideologue that the West tends to show extreme contempt towards. But I presume he's supported because it's a tool for the West to berate, change and punish the Russian regime.
    4
  1048. Bolsonaro couldn't have handled the outbreak much worse. What a disgrace. I used to like him for being a staunch anti-communist traditionalist. But his response to the Amazon wildfires and the coronavirus pandemic has been nothing but appalling.
    4
  1049. The Pope isn't even religious or Christian anymore if you look at the progressive and godless policies that he stands for. Most Christian and Catholic values has been abandoned. The principles are gone. So why even identify as religious at that point? Why not apply to join a left-wing anti-traditional and liberal organization instead? Stay true to your principles if there's no valid and persuasive reason to change them (in the Pope's case, there is none, apart from I suppose abandoning religion altogether and upholding conservative/traditional values from a secular perspective).
    4
  1050. Pointless conflicts, incompetent/corrupt governance, zero education, dogmatism, and a lack of control of destabilizing elements. I doubt the struggling situation in Syria, Lebanon or Yemen will change any time soon when there's so many factors involved that don't ever seem to improve.
    4
  1051. You can force rule on people. Take a look at most countries on earth, lol.
    4
  1052. Romania and its neighbouring countries has had horrible experiences with the alternative systems, mass famine, death and zero opportunities. Capitalism with regulation and oversight is the only defensible and appropriate system to adopt.
    4
  1053. Because thousands have fled and because of the war that was initiated a few months ago. That tends to bring in the international eye to a significantly worsened crisis. Not that hard to figure out.
    4
  1054. This is about Myanmar citizens sparking unrest and sabotaging Chinese owned factories. China has nothing to do with that, unless you're willing to say that China's activism at the UN makes them responsible for what happened, which is far fetched and not fair.
    4
  1055.  @troyaddreoryn4556  Can't find any data at the moment on the exact public support. But I remember that it was a majority. It must've been. Aung San Suu Kyi supported it, and everybody supporter her, the mother of Myanmar. So this is why people now are critical against the Myanmar people. But I'm not. They can support whatever they want and still object to military takeovers and corruption on a consistent basis. Either way, the army's gonna win and the protesters should probably give up unless they're willing to lose their life.
    4
  1056. Kind of impressive that many of these undeveloped countries has managed to close down and counter the pandemic more than some advanced countries. I know that the aid from the West is their lifeline, but still. It's commendable.
    4
  1057. Justice by Western standards by autocratic regimes? No, that's an unrealistic pipe dream.
    4
  1058. STOP SPAMMING Those who are pushing these crypto scams by manipulation should be placed in JAIL.
    4
  1059. Yes, you're right. I've seen it for a couple of months. It's spam bots trying to manipulate people's mind and push people to invest and inflate the price of cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin. Be careful.
    4
  1060. Acquit Chauvin and give him the presidential medal of freedom.
    4
  1061. Yeah, because a prolonged Israel-Palestine conflict and a spiteful attitude in the matter will solve the decade-old dispute, right? Renew yourself and look for peace instead.
    4
  1062. Lmao, China literally sanctioned these Western powers several times more than the total nuumber of penalties pushed on China. These conflicts are so pointless. Let the Western power develop their own countries, and let China go their own way as long as they don't impact any foreign country.
    4
  1063. The standards and bar for these accusations are so extremely politicized and low. These impeachment proceedings are meaningless and nothing said about Trump can be taken seriously anymore. This country is reported on by dishonest journalist and its citizens are huge hypocrites that only pretend to care about crime/insurrection/riots when the group are part of a side that they dislike.
    4
  1064. In 2019...? Highly contested. Morales went against a referendum to extend his term limits, stay in power, and take over the courts. The coupmaker had to go.

  1065. Looks like evil sadly has won and taken over in Bolivia...for now.

  1066. Do american or brazilian natives have the educational and political requirements to have authority over large swathes of domestic land? Would things improve? Should every colonialized area on earth be handed back to its...uh...original owners?
    4
  1067. Foreign workers. evading sanctions, cooperating with friendly nations (China, Iran Russia, Venezuela) by evading sanctions, using state-employed hackers to hack into banks or private person's bank accounts in the West, and some money is created by the domestic industry in North Korea.
    4
  1068. Paperwork will likely be streamlined at some point, UK won't have to pay a hefty EU fee, and foreign trade deals without adhering to EU's restrictive guidelines will result in an increased growth. In the end, UK could benefit economically, and politically, from their departure. No big deal.
    4
  1069. The american Congress, its 'checks and balances' and its whole political system couldn't be any more useless. Nothing that Trump said regarding the planned demonstration on January 6, can be seen as "incitement". It's such a stretch and a desperate attempt of suppressing american citizens' ability from participating in politics and running for president. These unacceptable overreaching acts of oppression won't be forgotten, nor accepted.
    4
  1070. Because Al Jazeera is funded by the Qatari state? And because the incident probably is an unfortunate outlier case where voluntary workers under a strict Gulf-state system ended up damaged by the desert heat.
    4
  1071. Haftar will apparently not be backing down with his military offensive and bombing campaigns. And do you think the UAE, Egypt and some Western allies will give up their military, financial and moral support for Haftar? Doubtful. And that's what is required for a prolonged ceasefire and in the end a peace deal.
    4
  1072. Could be good. Vaccine passports and vaccine documents to participate in society could be a way to ensure herd immunity across the globe, without making vaccination obligatory by law.
    4
  1073.  @momon969  Globalization has to do with foreign relations, national security, migration policy and how a country's general priorities should look like. Nobody opposes free trade to make things cheaper and streamline production. That's a typical strawman argument made by anti-nationalists.
    4
  1074.  @janbazrindbaloch1895  Pakistan provided military assistance, legitimacy and support for the Taliban a few decades ago, which partially resulted in the group gaining foothold in Afghanistan and expanding influence. The attempt of retaking Afghanistan and operating as a Pakistani puppet state failed, and now we've seen the consequences of the Taliban's existence. The CIA, KSA and UAE and some others may've had some involvement as well, but certainly not for the same reasons. CIA did at least try to fight terrorism and communist infiltration globally.
    4
  1075. Farmers are literally chasing the police with their tractors lmao, a bit embarrassing. Weakness by the state and authorities is never a good sign. No wonder why these unwarratned and hyperbolic riots/protests has been seen for so long.
    4
  1076.  @piperafrica1150  Were any adult seriously "tricked" to go to Syria to join the worst terror group on earth? Adults have personal agency and the ability to make their own decisions. If it turns out that the decision strides against the values that any normal human being have, the adults must face the consequences. The children on the other hand are likely not too late to be raised and adjusted.
    4
  1077. So naive to say that the Ehtiopian goverment is instigating the violence and bloodbath when they're just responding to the terror insurgency by the militias in Northern and mountainous Tigray.
    4
  1078. These red states does sadly prefer going black. Coal, oil and gas usage for the profitability and preventing having to transition into more of a sustainable direction tends to be preferred. Many will have to pay for that whether they like it or not. Doesn't look good when politicians are in bed with donors and rich corporations.
    4
  1079.  Evan Gelical  Why would they send hundreds of millions dollars on an annual basis to international projects, charities and countries to help them out then? Why would they sent their own military troops to protect African countries or other undeveloped states? Don't talk about the US not caring about anybody but themselves when there's dozens of countries that you actually could point fingers towards in that regard.

  1081. Never. Stop clogging up the comments with spam.

  1082. Left-wing leaders is the last thing we need in Brazil or in this world. Although Bolsonaro should be replaced after having messed up his response to the coronavirus and the amazon wildfires. But not by a leftist. Silva's conviction may be reinstated in a federal court, by the way. This ruling isn't decisive.
    4
  1083. One's background and race has nothing to do with one's ability to lead a country. That's a racist and outdated outlook. Many of these people tend to be uneducated and have limited capacities to lead/govern a country as well, which also turns your suggestion into a very dangerous one.
    4
  1084. Hong Kong has been run over by vandals and people trying to shame and punish the police. Just like in USA. The whole movement is irrational, especially since they reached their goal over a year ago (but continued rioting anyway), which justified the implementation of a security law. I think the protests around Navalny is a bit different. He's been charged and arrested on shaky premises, and the people hasn't gotten what they want in this regard. The protests hasn't been as violent and prolonged either from what I know.
    4
  1085. Is ACB even a conservative? Has she ruled in favor of Trump's policies and wants? She has not. I don't see the big deal. Why are leftists complaining about SCOTUS now when SCOTUS benefits the left and the democrats?
    4
  1086. Israel isn't as tough as China or most Gulf states, so I doubt it. They value 'democratic values & human rights", you know. Which implies no organ harvesting from terrorists.
    4
  1087. The advantage that the Chinese state has is that they don't ever have to take into account what the people want. Even if you've indulged in a flawed manufacturing process and research regarding a vaccine that isn't complete, ~99% will vaccinate because it's mandatory.
    4
  1088. Trading with a country doesn't mean that you have to become dependent on it. It'd be preferred and everyone would benefit if The West traded with the East. The more trade agreements and cooperation, the better for the global growth, peace and stability. This seems like a decent agreement signed, hopefully it'll expand to other countries joining if the standards and rules are ethically defensible and fair.
    4
  1089. This is what happens when you let uncontrolled and militant religion receive foothold in a country. When a corrupt or weak government loses control and has the wrong priorities.
    4
  1090. Qatar hasn't changed much at all and not many protests were seen in the country from what I remember. But the country shifted their foreign policy to take advantage of the arab spring, e.g, by sponsoring rebel groups in Syria to break down the regime (which angered Iran) or by sponsoring other organizations that many countries classify as subversive and radical, which partially led to the blockage of Qatar in 2017.
    4
  1091. Finally. I knew that it'd be brokered eventually, in a way that benefits both sides. There were so much fearmongering from both sides, resulting in corporations leaving the UK and people fearing this departure for no good reason. Negotiations will continue until both sides benefits in the greatest possible extent. A Canada/Australian style trade deal or a Swiss/Norwegian relationship with the EU is likely what to expect.
    4
  1092. He literally spoke with the Chinese president last night and issued worry about what's happening there. But he shouldn't speak on the matter, honestly. How China assimilates its people is up to China, not the rest of the world.

  1093. "Fairer skin"? What a racist cop-out. If you think one's race dictates success and opportunity in this day and age, your analyses are not worth taking into account.
    4
  1094. Turkey is becoming the new Iran. Hostile to everyone. Uses their military for selfish and whatever desires that they can come up with, no matter its consequences. Threatens everyone that opposes their foreign policy. Delegitimizes and weakens NATO. Violates agreements with their allies. Shames and insults France because France is trying to stomp out foolish militants from MENA. Turkey deserve to be sanctioned here.
    4
  1095. He'll probably be fired for something that he didn't do nor were involved in. Just like the previous one. Mob justice and ochlocracy never ends up well. Props to Peru for trying to take the pandemic seriously. It's hard to enforce strict measures in a country where the population is close to or below the poverty line, however.
    4
  1096. Free demonstrations is an example of a vibrant democracy, if that's a system of governance that you like. Al Jazeera's viewerbase should probably not mention the word "democracy" when they live in dictatorial nations. Just because instability occasionally occurs in the USA, doesn't imply that they aren't "democratic" or a nation worth emulating, in some aspects. A blind belief in mob rule or democracy is kind of overrated though, frankly. Not many benefits from that.

  1097. Let's not forget that she's a rioting vandal as well. She's not a victim, lol.

  1098. Don't engage in violence next time and you wouldn't have authorities after you. Freedom and rights will never imply free reign to attack others. To shame the police. Lie. Sabotage cities. Never.
    4
  1099. The cheapest and most effective approach to get control over the virus would be to compensate families, private citizens and corporations to self-isolate during a few weeks, or a month, to then open up gradually. Opening up, closing down and jumping back and forth because of a lack of restrictions is more costly than doing what it takes to retake control over the outbreak.

  1100. North Korea should start to adopt the Chinese, Russian and Vietnamese style economic system, a free market economy with closer foreign cooperation rather than a full-on planned economy with excessive control. Wealth can't effectively be created in any other way. But Kim Jong Un's totalitarian regime is naturally afraid of change (might lose their grip on power, the people may wake up), even though they've likely been pressured by their friendly allies, China, Iran, Russia and others. Congratulations to China for wiping out absolute poverty. Rejecting Maoism was certainly a clever step.

  1101. Corruption will probably always be an intertwined part of African politics, unfortunately. Rooting it out completely in a poor, uneducated and opportunist part of the world where many aren't willing to make small sacrifices to improve conditions for everyone, is a tough task.

  1102. Anything could happen now. All sides are wandering on mine fields with the finger on the trigger. Damnit :(

  1103.  Sagnik Sengupta  If she *opposed to the military's tactics, you mean. It's interesting how Al Jazeera's comment section is flooded with criticism against Myanmar's oversight and zero tolerance policy against societal threats. Do you oppose China's assimilation policies for Uighurs too? Is it wrong to assimilate high-risk groups?
    4
  1104. What's wrong with cremation if you're in a crisis? Blindly following Sharia or ancient religious doctrines isn't anything worth fighting for. Humanity benefits zero by that. Just look at the Islamic countries stance on vaccines, where skepticism isn't rare and where vaccination "requires" a stamp of approval by some cleric. Waste of time and sanity.

  1105. I'm all for strict abortion laws, but why do some countries has to take it to the extreme? Of course woman shouldn't be penalized for having a miscarriage of for being raped. Letting a woman abort deformed fetuses or go through with an abortion if a doctor deems the woman's health/life to be at risk, is also fine. But using abortion clinics to uphold frivolous and indecent lifestyles by time and time again aborting unborn children, as seen in the Western and communist world, is depraved.

  1106. "A big, slow, old turtle". That's the usual terminology that many Democrats uses to describe Mitch McConnell's and his delayed action in bringing certain legislation to the table. That's the vibe many will be getting by that Trump tweet lol

  1107. 0:38 oh god...that is sad. RIP biodiversity. We really need to phase out reliance on these toxic substances, or ensure that leaks nearly are impossible.
    4
  1108. Probably planning on how they can kill off americans or fire missiles at Israel like the radicalized jihadists that they are. No wonder why Libanon is in a complete mess with an unprecedented economic recession and poor leadership.
    4
  1109. Maybe. What you're up for there though is genocide. Complete chaos and vigilante violence until the power struggle is removed, likely through a coup and the establishment of a police state. While that may be an improvement, is the thousands or millions of dead innocent people something that you and the world are fine with? Are you just gonna stand by? What's to say that genocide and chaos won't occur under the newly established state if no interference is done?
    4
  1110. What's the point of calling out and condemning sins by referring to your religion if you can cleanse yourself from sins by the use of rituals or admissions? Sins must be deterred, not forgiven (depending on the severity of the sin, of course).
    4
  1111. They love to lie whenever it fits. Whenever their manufactured narrative breaks. That's why Biden has a team full of people trying to shield him from journalists. From reporters. Preventing questions being asked. The artificially made-up narrative and agenda that half the nation obliviously buys into can't be broken down.
    4
  1112. Lol this guy Lula. >peddles several conspiracy theories about US companies and the US state, with limited merit >claims that "I do not work with conspiracies" Come on, man. Be objective and avoid spreading fake news, Lula.

  1113. Would Palestine or any Gulf state allow minorities or insurgent rebel groups to live freely, establish houses and do whatever they want in Palestine and Gulf state territory? If your answer is no (which would reflect reality and the policies seen in these countries), why apply different standards to Israel?
    4
  1114. Protest against violence as a whole, something that affects the male gender way more than women. Don't invoke biased and counterproductive feminist theories to make a point, nobody, and I mean nobody, will buy into that.
    4
  1115. For sure. Millions of people within the arab world supports them though. Sure, it's not that many when looking at the entire arab population. But it's an alarming figure. Look at Palestine. ~35% has shown support for Al Qaeda. 20% in Malaysia and Indonesia. Something has to be done to deradicalize such terror sympathizers if the intent is to eradicate groups such that breathes by committing crimes against humanity on an immense scale.
    4
  1116. Bring your politicized speculations elsewhere. No serious person would stage a coup attempt like this. People would be armed, they'd be ready to go very far to get their way, they'd be mobilized in large numbers and coordinate their moves. None of this was seen. It was a demonstration for a valid cause which slightly deteriorated, which large mobs tends to do unless kept in check. The governmental and state buildings that Antifa and BLM burned down with almost impunity, were those coup attempts?
    4
  1117. Were Brazilian companies taking advice from the Chinese construction sector and CCP's lack of security requirements in the mining/industrial sector? Jokes aside, security in these sectors must be stepped up drastically in the undeveloped part of the world. Thousands of lives are unnecessarily lost because of a lack of regulation of negligence.
    4
  1118. For good reason. They were bombed by minorities 2 years ago. Radicalization is flourishing at some schools, and in some homes. Preventing that is a prerequisite for a safe and thriving country.

  1119. "blackmailing" lol Russia provoked and resorted to unethical actions against other countries. Now they're being put in their place.
    4
  1120. They're terrorizing the Yemeni people, has contributed to the worst famine and humanitarian crisis in modern times, holds leaking oil tankers hostage to force concessions by their adversaries and uses violence against anyone that opposes them. They started mobilizing in arms to conduct a Coup d'état against the Yemeni state, causing a civil war. How can anyone in their right mind support such a depraved group of extremists? They deserve to be removed.
    4
  1121. Unrelated.
    4
  1122. Correct. A criminal case was charged back in 2013 regarding the ship and its captain that brought the explosives to Lebanon's port. The explosives were temporarily stored in a facility next to grain processing plants. Those who are responsible for these delayals are seemingly the court system and the officials involved in this case. Not the current PM, that's ridiculous. This isn't justice, but maybe a first step of getting to the bottom of this.

  1123. Bet we'll see space conflicts in the coming years. Space stations being invaded. Astronauts competing to dig out samples and resources from the surface of certain planets.

  1124. France's PM previously having alleged close ties with Gaddafi...is that why France is supporting the opposition (general Haftar) in the Libyan civil war today?

  1125. Do you enjoy commenting straight up lies and delusional pseudo-scientific remarks in every comment section?
    4
  1126. I get that these parents wants to justify their existence and unavoidable purpose of having to take care of disabled children. But I don't think we benefit if disabilities are characterized as a blessing. As something good. That attitude has led to many unhealthy ideals and traits proliferating across the world.
    4
  1127. Another argument regarding the debate is about different states having very different living costs. $15/h is a whole lot in certain states, while it's almost nothing in an expensive state such as California. And do you solve the underlying economic and social issues by forcing corporations to pay an increase of wages to low qualified and easily replaceable workers?
    4
  1128. USA don't want anyone from the more impoverished and unstable countries. Too much of a burden. Although things has changed lately with Biden. He's way more open to open up the floodgates, uncritically.
    4
  1129.  @hselctrical  Even without the sanctions and even with a competent group handling the Venezuela oil- and gas companies on a booming oil market, the country would still suffer economic issues and stagnation due to the fact that anti-competitiveness, regulation, restrictions to foreign trade, poor monetary policy and the inability to attract investors/innovation. Might be time to realize that propaganda by foreign actors or anti-socialist elements isn't what is causing your socialist government to fail completely. Defending a continuation of the oppression and misery is inhumane, and will worsen the situation for your fellow men.
    4
  1130. Cancelling these events is a good thing. Perhaps the religious following will decrease then. Religion is the last thing you need when handling a pandemic. People have gathered in churches and each others home to pray and spend time together, spreading the virus accordingly. People have broken coronavirus guidelines in the name of religion. Tried to pray the virus away. Defied recommendations personally. Disrespected the policies needed to get through this. Religion can't go away any sooner.
    4
  1131. The Pope and his associated clerics, including in Mexico, has betrayed Christianity. The old religious values that used to flourish has been disrespected and abandoned by these Catholic Church leaders. Why do people and religious zealots still follow these head priests?
    4
  1132. The mexican president not doing his job, surprise surprise. Defying lockdowns and curfews because "that's what authoritarians do", even though it's been proven to be effective and very successful in the vast majority of cases. Blind belief in the people will be the end of humanity.
    4
  1133. Another sad day for anyone looking for a civilized country and economic opportunity. Especially the Venezuelans that has to live under the horrible conditions placed forward by the illegitimate, corrupt and suppressive dictator Maduro.
    4
  1134. That can be applied to most of Africa.
    4
  1135. Forcing or encouraging small children to wear these religious garments is horrible to see. That they're indoctrinated and seen as objects from such a young age. These nations have fallen so low. No wonder why people in the nation are radicalized to the point where they capture, kidnap and threaten innocent kids.
    4
  1136.  @venomdealer790  You don't have to worship any of what you mentioned if you build up a conservative secular country where the country is built on rational morals, scientific data, what's good for people's health, and policies that leads to a prosperous state. Religion and amoral socialism doesn't benefit anyone.

  1137. Assange committed computer intrusion and spied/surveilled illegally. Navalny hasn't committed any crimes apart from not turning up for a court hearing while in coma..

  1138. Too risky. Let their government take care of them. Create structures that enables their home country to care for them. You can't accept USA or the West to save a few migrants in the name of humanity when there's so many risks and costs involved.
    4
  1139. Sounds like the copper alloy neutralizes a virus if the virus sits still at a certain place (on the surface of something). A constant flow of virus particles from entity x to y or when breathing in public may be tell a different story.
    4
  1140. Astrazeneca and EU are violating vaccine agreements, which is a law violation. Even if this is an initiative taken by EU to prioritize their own citizens, they've failed miserably in that department as well during this pandemic, which is why Austria, Denmark and others are connecting themselves to Israel and other countries to speed up the vaccination manufacturing and distribution process.
    4
  1141. I can by the use of science, data and moral philosophical arguments defend all of Poland's policies without referring to religious values at all. These laws doesn't have to be religiously motivated as some people improperly think.
    4
  1142. And Syria. and Yemen. Pointless suffering being upheld because of corruption, vanity and power hungry officials dictating this world.
    4
  1143. What type of journalists were targeted? Those who've characterized threatening militants in a positive light? Those with a bad track record? Those with a biased view that may impact these countries involved? Those involved in activities labelled as subversive? All questions important to raise.
    4
  1144. ....why? This report is about violence and sexual assault/harassment in Africa. Focus on that.
    4
  1145. No such thing as "anti-Asian narratives". Keep your conspiracies to yourself.
    4
  1146. Restricting troublemakers, provocateurs, rioters and individuals that causes disorder at universities sounds like a perfect policy to implement nationally. Preventing disorder and chaos, especially at places where peace and effective learning is supposed to be the norm, is something that everyone should be onboard at. Good on Greece.
    4
  1147. They've covered the US death rate dozens of times. Keep up.

  1151. Can we regulate corporations to make sure that they don't indulge in social justice BS, especially if it's based on false premises, about issues that aren't their business, and if it supports movements that have malicious intentions?
    4
  1152. Hasn't got anything to do with taxes, but rather that these countries are dominated by corrupt officials, failing ideologies, an uneducated populace, etc. That breeds terrorism and anger. Funnily enough, we literally pay high taxes in the EU and America to bring in the problems from Africa or the Middle East, at the expense of the civilized population. We'll see more of that sort of migration with Biden in office, and with leftist politicians taking over in EU.

  1153.  @sagethinker7168  The HOUTHIS started the war and insurgency against the Yemeni state back in 2014. Don't rewrite history for your own benefit.
    4
  1154. Lol no. Convicts and criminal apologists shouldn't receive a single penny. They should all be in jail.
    4
  1155. That's a factually untrue statement. US soft power and its influential role on the global market has resulted in dozens of nations looking up to the US and cooperating closely. You can criticize the US, but don't do so with misleading statements.
    4
  1156. After taking a quick look: It's legal to own firearms in Ecuador. They flourish around the country. I presume lots of them are smuggled into prisons, maybe guards were bribed/attacked, and when the government doesn't have absolute control over these areas (prisons, firearm market, gangs), you're in for a (horrible) wild ride.

  1157. ha! I've seen that meme pic.

  1158. We don't want another war nor interfere in the state of affairs of another country.
    4
  1159. John Bolton is a neoconservative warhawk willing to use the liberal media to tout and distribute his traitorous and debunked accusations directed at the Trump administration. I'll quickly summarize and debunk Bolton's claims: Getting help from foreign nations to get reelected and improve relationships isn't a bad thing. Letting China build reeducation camps or get done whatever they want domestically isn't something for the US to have a say in if neutrality and strengthened diplomacy is the goal. That americans enemeis or allies with a different political direction are "laughing at" or making fun of the US happens to every country, and says more about the countries indulging in such tactics than what it says about the US. Having ties to dictators isn't per se a bad thing, it's a necessity. There. I'd argue that Bolton has acted in a treasonous manner.
    4
  1160. Detecting and rendering harmless the high-tech and advanced military vehicles/weaponry that we use today is easier and easier. The new era of warfare will likely be seen in space, in cyberspace, and perhaps underwater. Also, via proxy wars.
    4
  1161. No, that's not what's happening. Astra seems to be generally safe in 99,99% of cases. Blood clots and deaths are incredibly rare. But ok, if you're going to be spoiled and ungrateful about this vaccination package, we'll keep it. You'll have to solve your own blunders and challenges then.
    4
  1162. We don't have a moral or legal reason to continuously spend billions on countries in Asia/Africa. Especially when the aid is upheld decade after decade without any return on investment. I can see why cuts are made in these trying times.
    4
  1163. If Biden enters and reshapes the deal (which benefits Iran's greatly), Iran's nuclear arsenal will continue to expand, their unethical operations in the middle east will be stepped up, and the world will become more unsafe. Yet this is the deal that every american leftist agrees with because it lets them chastise Trump. And Iran are very much in favor of it, because they can continue terrorize their own population, regions in the middle east, and deceive Europe and North America.

  1164. Such a boring SOTU speech that I had to turn it off after 20 minutes. Sleepy Joe's delivering.
    4
  1165. @Position King They supported democracy without jihadist violence and fundamentalism. Something that any country looking to be civilized should stand behind. But perhaps USA underestimated the engrained support for these hostile ideologies and religious doctrines, which caused a prolonged mess.
    4
  1166.  @kyzersoze8408  Feminists, socialists and liberals dehumanizing language is abominable. Yet at the same time, they pretend to care about people through solidarity. We all know that it's only a certain type of people that they care for.
    4
  1167. EU's response and strategy during this pandemic has been disastrous. No wonder why countries are leaving and becoming skeptical of the union.
    4
  1168. Exactly. This can't be stated enough. Lockdowns are needed because people are selfish and unwilling to behave. Think about the collective's well-being, solidarity, and fight this invisible enemy together, and we'll get past this quickly.
    4
  1169. Look how quickly the "defund the police" movement ceased to exist. People finally realized the importance in strong authorities and defense capabilities.
    4
  1170. This is the right answer. It's really not hard to retrieve and ID and do the right thing to prevent fraud and irregularities. It applies to every eligible voter. Can't do that? You have to take a look at why it is so difficult for you. I doubt that it is hard if you're a law-abiding person willing to put in the effort to vote. These activists and politically damaged corporations should feel ashamed of themselves, frankly.
    4
  1171. These slogans are useless and hasn't worked the past decades. Why not try something new to seek peace and a decisive solution to the conflict?

  1172. They're reprehensible terrorists, equally as bad as ISIS and Al-Qaeda. Think about what the heck you're supporting here. Extremists who day in and day out commits crimes against humanity.

  1173. Ebola is a deadly threat that can spread across the world and kill off many innocent people. Obligatory vaccination would be appropriate in these parts of the world if people refuse to get themselves inoculated to help others.

  1174. What was the previous rule for tourists from these 'high-risk countries'? 7 day quarantine? Just a negative corona test? Surely some limitations were in place.

  1178.  @0westdude  Did they? The leader will be replaced by an army official or an official with a similar agenda. This wasn't a successful coup. And the crackdown against the rebels will likely only grow stronger.

  1179. He has avoided journalists since he entered the white house. He's got a team of loyalists and press secretaries covering for him. They know that Biden can't handle the pressure and questions asked by critical journalists. Quasi-dictator.

  1180. Promote and accept radical ideologies, be it revolutionary socialism or fundamentalist religiousness, and you'll always experience these sort of problems. Especially if the state can't assert control over the unstable elements of a country.

  1181.  @Anarchist369  So what do you suggest should be done to counter and erase these radical extremists that time and time again are followers of a certain religion?

  1182. They're not safe in Africa and shouldn't be reproduced in the conditions that prevails there. It's inhumane and irresponsible. Something has to be done to handle these rebels.

    4
  1189.  @Somerandomdude-ev2uh  Cancelling views and laws that you almost objectively can interpret as "bad" doesn't have to be a problem. It becomes a problem when everything and everyone are "cancelled" for every little misstep or trivial violation. When people's own moderate views and activities ends up in the crosshairs by unstable activists with malicious intentions. Activists with too much of a say and influence in the entertainment, corporate- and political sphere.
    4
  1190. The people travelling to Lebanon, Yemen or similar torn apart countries with a shattered economy has to be warned (which I presume many are) prior to taking the decision to take such a huge risk. But I think many of these people don't have any other choice than trying to improve their low standards of living and insecure situation.
    4
  1191. Tech giants such as FB with an immense amount of power over countries around the world could easily be regulated if the political will existed there. I don't think people realize how easy it could be to ensure that political interference is prohibited, free speech upheld, and that we see consistency when the giants are intervening against users.

  1193. Reminds me of that Blue Water High episode when Eric spends all his money in his bank account to purchase a shiny new surfboard. The slightly stormy weather and surfing without a leg lope resulted in the board being lost after the first surfing session. RIP ~$800 or so. But it didn't end on such a bad note :)

  1194. Hong Kong's independence and separation from China still applies. The only exception is that you won't be able to engage in secession, rioting, vandalism, nor connect yourself to the anti-government movement. For every law-abiding and average citizen, nothing has changed. Well, apart from an increase of order, an improved economy, and peace, lately.
    4
  1195. His words and advocacy is generally meaningless. He hasn't added anything of value to the USA. Just a tiresome centrist with no willingness to improve anything.
    4
  1196. Sure, but the likelihood of these ruthless attacks decreases drastically if you provide good opportunity and comfort to your people. If you can detect and quash red flags early on. If you've got a strong state and a unified populace. Afghanistan doesn't meet any of these quotas and is far, far behind.

  1197.  @dontbothermeimjust12  Lol. Supporting abortion is a reasonable position for any moral person that values life, protects the innocent and is willing to uphold basic etiquette. Leave with your obnoxious pejoratives.
    4
  1198.  @justyouraveragejoe1333  Because 1st world countries hasn't gone hard enough against drug usage? Look at Singapore, Saudi Arabia, China, Vietnam and some others. They barely have huge cultural issues or a real presence of drugs, because they take it seriously. It works.
    4
  1199. Why is money being thrown away on this trash? Donate to people in need. To rebuild broken countries. Enrich people's lives. Participate in charities. But no, someone throws away $70M on a non-existent painting. This world...
    4
  1200. It's not and will never be a right to remove innocent offspring because you feel like it. Because it makes you comfortable. Because you couldn't use protection or act in a responsible way. Such women ought to be thrown out, or in jail, rightfully.
    4
  1201. Many of these athletes showcases that they're above the law, genuinely privileged, spoiled and high on their own egos. This coronavirus outbreak has highlighted the fundamentally different point of view and concern for others that people have. Some are out partying, defying mask usage, and showing indifference to people dying. Others are respectful, socially distancing, quarantining and doing what they can to protect others. One group threatens humanity and ought to be regulated or discouraged.
    4
  1202. Because signing peace deals with revolutionaries, rebels and literal terrorists has worked out in the past... Just look at Afghanistan and the Taliban's role. Cooperation with some groups is an impossibility if you strive for sustained peace. Maybe the situation is different in the Philipphines, however. Unsure about that.
    4
  1203.  @ajay012  You're coming across as completely clueless if you don't understood what he meant. China isn't communist today, they're free-market capitalists with an authoritarian leaning that dictates some businesses and nationalizes some sectors. The country is flourishing today because they're capitalist. Perhaps do some own research?

  1204. The uphill slopes must be tough when you've travelled like 3K kilometres by skating lol

  1205. Not if that decision results in other people and their bodies being infringed upon. This is basically why all drugs including tobacco/alcohol should be outlawed, necessary vaccination programs obligatory, and abortion outlawed aside from in outlier and exceptional cases.
    4
  1206. For sure. You can easily make sure that no innocent person is sentenced to death. Once that bar is reached, I don't see any problem in rapidly imposing the capital punishment to serve justice, protect the country, deter dangerous individuals from showing themselves, and eradicate the potential recidivism rate. The problem with the capital punishment in the USA is that it is so slowly imposed. Processes to sentence a person on death row takes decades and costs millions of dollars. That could be cut down severely without jeopardizing due process and the principle of being innocent until proven guilty.
    4
  1207.  @ivarbrouwer197  The bright side of the capital punishment is that you won't see the person committing wrongdoing ever again. And you'll simultaneously ensure that taxpayer revenue isn't wasted on housing abhorrent maniacs. The cost of imposing the capital punishment in the USA could easily be cut down.
    4
  1208.  @augustushotel1737  Yeah, just don't get in the way of anyone else unless you're healthy and vaccinated. Carelessly spreading a virus, rejecting health measures and spreading misinfo about vaccination for selfish reasons should be criminalized.
    4
  1209.  @eggpotat5435  Good. It has to be. It's not a right to not protect yourself and spread viruses to other countries. If you can't protect yourself, expect to be prevented from freely participating in society. If mandatory vaccination programs can't be rolled out, these encouraging programs that private companies may adhere to, are preferred.
    4
  1210. He's a smart guy. Capitalizing on societal fads to make money in a neutral manner, to support himself and to grow. Much respect to him.
    4
  1211. Far-right is used interchangeably with "every slightly conservative party" or "the most right-leaning party in parliament/power". It's unfortunate because the term implies that the party is extreme Nazis when they aren't even close to that.

  1214.  @Ayratzay  Collateral damage is unfortunate when striking against rebels, but it's an unavoidable necessity in some cases. What's the alternative? Let the rebels burn things down, attack civilians and seize territory? Of course not.
    4
  1215.  @link77ism  Okay? The West is incredibly civilized and has contributed with billions in aid, healthcare workers, debt relief, and military assistance to build up the uncivilized world. We're the moral compass of the world in that regard and are greatly benefitting the rest of the world. Yet you abuse our hospitality and laws by committing atrocities against our people? Nobody in their right mind can rationalize that or think that's okay. Don't bring up a history that you've got no clue about unless you're willing to acknowledge all our efforts and sacrifices made, still to this day, to improve the world.

  1221. I don't think taking the red pill means killing off every brain cell and believing in conspiratorial fabrications regarding society and the world. It means opening up to the irreversible truth, usually in controversial issues. In this case, it'd mean that you acknowledge the importance in using medicine, prescriptions and vaccines in certain cases to prevent disease, minimize the spread of viruses, and ensure that your population is healthy. A blue pilled maniac would be an anti-vaxxer.

  1222. Extremely depressing.

  1223. It must be serious. Why would a government put their reputation on the line in this Brexit debacle and not protect the most important point of the departure-UK's fishing rights? Wouldn't be surprising if the Navy is called in.

  1224. Even elephants are looking to be saved from the unstable conditions in Pakistan. Maybe the world will liberate the country from all the radicals and jihadists too. Especially the part of the Pakistani parliament that supports these groups.

  1226. "He was just an innocent little angel with wonderful intentions to change the world!" -Every naive criminal-apologist ever, commonly seen on the left side of the political spectrum. I'm certain this lawbreaking individual deserved what was coming to him. It's unfortunate that the cops were pulled from service with suspended leave.

  1228. The HK rioters created this scenario all by themselves. If they handled themselves properly, behaved, and protested against policies/proposals that actually matter, China wouldn't intervene. That wasn't the case, leading to these valid crackdowns.
    4
  1229. Surprised that it took this long for the autocratic regime of Thailand to crackdown upon dissent and the protest movements. It was inevitable. Just like Hong Kong. Although the difference here is that Thailand protesters seems to have been more peaceful, and a legitimate cause to fight for.

  1231.  @Burevestnik9M730  His economic policy sucks and his sympathies with communist ideology along with socialist states isn't great. His response to the corona has been a complete embarrassment too. He's terrible. But France adopting his authoritarian tendencies would be good. Bad for the anarchists and jihadists, but who cares about them?

  1232. Being skeptical about the election results when it was so close in several swing states and when there's been previous reports of fraud/cheating and exploitation by the Democratic party...is not a coup d'état.

  1233. This saddening story is something that many victims around the world are able to tell after having suffered under communist repression. Truly human evil. Yet there's still those out there advocating for the morally bankrupt ideology to this day. Through historical revisionism. Or by ignoring the historical failures. Alternatively, cheering on the historical failures and claiming that it wasn't real communism/socialism. It's a big threat for the future of humanity and the globe.

  1236.  @vandanchauhan8311  Nope, because a condom is 99% effective. Most pregnancies aren't created due to condoms breaking. It's due to hedonistic individualist acting out on their desires without thinking twice, laying around, not planning ahead, and so on. 33% of women have several abortions throughout life, almost as a way of alternative contraceptive. It's repulsive.

  1238. 15-16 isn't necessarily too young, no, since bodies are developed at that stage and, they're relatively grown up and since many appear like women at that age. However, many may be too young mentally and may not know what they're doing if they're 15-16. But, that does also apply to 18 year olds. 21 year olds. Maybe even 25 year olds. So, where do you set the limit?

  1239. Good. I'm surprised that Duterte hasn't stepped his foot down against this earlier during his tenure. Child marriage and abusing minors that naturally can't consent is an abhorrent value that should be removed everywhere.

  1246. That's surprising. That a communist country decided to logically ban women from certain professions. Just look at the Red Army. Millions of women were part of it during WWII. Something that civilized and rational countries deemed as completely barbaric, for biological, physical and reasons of fairness.
    4
  1247. I doubt much can be done here. You sign up to Facebook's terms when you create an account and join the website. And has this data been used for anything illegal or even unethical? Unclear. Countries will have to implement clearer laws against data harvesting by tech giants if they're willing to make it stop once and for all. I don't think any country realistically has done that.

  1256. This is an easy topic to debunk.The developed and advanced world carries the globe on their shoulders. All production occurs there, the population is educated, there's a large proportion of elderly and vulnerable citizens, and they've got the resources to purchase vaccines which arguably justifies this part of the world being prioritized. Most of Africa is already dependent on aid and has populations that mostly are below the age of 25. Why should they be prioritized equally?

  1258.  @AhsanHabibCSTE  Hundreds of thousands of migrants has come in from Myanmar to Bangladesh. How many are coming from India? Do you see why a country would be determined to close their borders towards a country such as Bangladesh, with a population that screamed and rioted because Macron decided to crackdown upon jihadist terrorism? Because the West are willing to uphold free speech? See how they may be threatening entities?
    4
  1259. It is promising too. Great to hear that many republicans are standing up behind the president, and supporting him. That they're willing to get to the bottom of this election to ensure that it was held properly. But they're being countered by a whole establishment of biased journalists, leftists, traitorous GOP members and unprofessional judges. So there's almost no chance that Trump will remain in power unless he invokes the insurrection act and uses the military.

Many Western countries has bought into this debunked notion.

    4
  1269. Thousands of troops had to stay, sleep and mobilize at a cold parking lot. I think that visualizes how the Biden administration likely will treat law enforcement the incoming years. But at least Jill Biden were sent to thank the troops and hand over some chocolate bars, right 😏
    4
  1270.  @dreamygates2461  The months of deadly and violent riots last year by the BLM and anarchist extremists is every democrats' fault too, right? And let's think about it, why didn't the Capitol Hill police respond swiftly and harshly against the lawless demonstrators? Could it perhaps be because of the BLM influence from last year that polluted every police force?
    4
  1271. If justice existed, it'd never be referred to or be labelled as murder. A cop doing his job to protect the civilians from clear danger, from a person that always ended up in trouble with the law, should not result in these ramifications and distortions of reality that we've seen from the stupid populace the past year.
    4
  1272. Fun initiative from WION. Holding large summits with prominent guests from all over the world. Always fruitful and interesting to follow.
    4
  1273. It would have, if health officials, experts and doctors weren't censored. If the government took it seriously ASAP without downplaying it. If China informed and warned the world instead of encouraging their citizens to stock up on protective equipment & facemasks abroad... China should be held accountable for this deliberate blunder.
    4
  1274. So you haven't read the report then. Why comment if your comment won't reflect reality? I'm a pretty big critic of China, but no one can deny that their economic model is resulting in rapid growth and that they've grown way faster than the West during this pandemic, for various reasons.
    4
  1275. @AK. So naive. Do you know what diplomacy is? Do you know that geopolitics and external developments can have a big impact on one's own country? Sounds as if i'm reading the comments posted by children or young adults who haven't finished school yet, lol. It's everyone's concerns when a significant development occurs somewhere in the world, be it in India, the UK or North Korea. It's everyone's businesses if it impacts other entities.

  1276. A trashy carved stoneblock in Germany disappeared too a few days ago.

  1277. This should be such common sense. But nope, there's still lost causes trying to question this fact. No wonder why there's so many countries suffering from this pandemic.
    4
  1278. It isn't a plan, but it's the result of accepting these individuals without any restrictions or obligations handed out to them. These are some reasons as to why borders should be closed to anyone that may strain one's culture or welfare system. Bangladesh has no stability, is dominated by religion and has no capital. So i'm not surprised that they accept whatever comes their way.
    4
  1279. Iran are getting desperate. The pressure and condemnation against them is tough to handle. Their economy is strained, and they realize that they'll have no chance in a potential war. Drastic times, drastic measures.

  1288. India had to cancel a space mission 2 years ago because of, from what I recall, technical glitches and failure in shaping the space shuttle properly. You can be critical of China, but it seems hypocritical for an Indian channel to do so when they're in many ways ways behind China on many fronts.
    4
  1289. You don't get to dictate what to do with your body if that entails a risk to others. Move to a secluded forest and don't ever interact with anyone else ever again and you'll be able to do what you want. Otherwise, follow the law and do what's expected by you. Don't be a selfish little brat.

  1290. I think EU and USA has propped him up, and Russia are worsening their grip on him by responding so harshly against his activism. Navalny lost previous elections by landslides and the Russian population barely knows about him (which still applies). Navalny has managed to become a living martyr and retrieved an influential status.

  1296. The iron curtain and the European walls are back. Not from a socialist perspective, but to shield Europe from one of the greater threats facing humanity right now. Appropriate.

  1298. Who, Alastor Moody?
    4
  1299. Hah! Perfect. The US and the world were lucky that they didn't receive a warmongering establishment politician such as Hillary back in '2016. War declaration would probably have been inevitable then. Trump was the first president in over two decades to not declare any ways, and pulled back thousands of troops. Biden is an expansion of Obama-era policy and establishment politics, something that Hillary stood for.

  1300. This collection and display of pure trash from Mount Everest is supposed to attract visitors and tourists. Poetically striking, when you think about it. Can't deny that it is creative though.

  1301. First off, China isn't communist anymore if you look at their policies. They've got socialist programs, believes in a form of equal outcome, praises Mao, and supports communist countries, but they're not communist in nature anymore. They've become state capitalist. Secondly, Hong Kong and Carrie Lam is certainly Not communist at all. She rules one of the most capitalist and powerful financial hubs in the world, in Hong Kong. Thirdly, the new security legislation in Hong Kong and the way that Lam is working with China to uphold stability in HK, jail violent vandals, and restore the economic situation, is worthy of PRAISE; not condemnation. The West is entirely wrong on this matter and are acting hypocritically. If the West were burning, would they accept the burning to continue? Would they strengthen security? Would they arrest the vandals? The answer is obvious.
    4
  1302. Quite strange context to use the term "victim-card" here. Maduro cheated and improperly won the election and is now trying to claim that the "win" would've been even more clear if "other countries didn't interfere". If the dictator advocated for legitimate and transparent elections, this could be solved! But this corrupt politician isn't looking for fairness and transparency. He's looking to enrich himself by suppressing his people and staying in power to enforce a political agenda that the citizens suffers from.
    4
  1303. Eww.
    4
  1304. I'm surprised that we saw a bunch of media outrage over this. There's nothing really strange about what he did here. It's in line with upholding an election of integrity. Also surprised that almost nobody has criticized the breach of trust that this recording's leak likely entailed.

  1305. And their only argument to maintain this tragic trend is "freedom".

  1306. "USA and Israel is making up things to justify attacks against us or a full-blown war. USA and Israel are provoking us". While at the same time, Iran uses a worse form of provocative threats against its enemies and resorts to/sponors warfare via proxy wars, militas or by their own military. Perhaps Iran should clean up their own home?
    4
  1307. And India and its companies aren't "squeezing out precious resources in Africa"? People should acknowledge that establishing corporations in Africa is something that many African governments wants and that benefits the country by creating job opportunities and wealth. It's part of making Africa and the world a better and peaceful place. But ye, let's insinuate that India is god's child and that everybody else is a sinner.
    4
  1308. For those who know more about this case; Demolishing the sites where actually legally approved by the indigenous representatives and the local council/government in the area. No foul play were involved here. Yet the world and Australia itself were outraged afterwards. How about being outraged at those that approved the operation rather than the corporation itself which would've been replaced by any other corporation if the legal precedent existed?
    4
  1309. Can't wait for Brexit to be over. No one understands what the actual disputes are, the plans from both sides, and what'll happen. Media could've done so much better in visualizing and explaining in detail what we're up against.

  1310. Sounds like you won't appreciate much in the world then, if that's the dismissive attitude you have towards one of the most revered and impressive cultural heritage sites in the world. Many of those who built the pyramids were pleased to do so. It was seen as a very special assignment to receive, and a respectable profession with decent benefits.
    4
  1311. Reactive penalties and sympathy is always kind and a natural response. But to counter these shootings and unstable individuals from infringing upon others, you have to be proactive. Prevent the factors and sources that causes people to commit these atrocities. Figuring out these factors and how to tackle them is tough and controversial, but the way you have to go if you care about preventing this from reoccurring.

    4
  1317. Badly. They'll regret it in due time. But by then, it'll be too late. Brainwashing people into thinking that picking China as one's main partner isn't ideal for anyone. Well, apart from China maybe.

  1320. He's an (ex?)-communist, a typical power-abusing leftist who can't run a country properly. He literally suggested playing hockey, driving tractors, bathing in the sauna and drinking beer to handle the virus. He's defended and implemented ineffective economic policy which has negatively impacted Belarus' power on the market and its citizens limited job opportunities with low wages. He should go.

  1324. Most viruses mutate like this. The corona, or covid-19, has mutated 100+ times the past year. Likely not serious. But the mutation that we saw the past week in UK and possibly South Africa were however more contagious, which is scary. There's always that fear of the vaccine being rendered useless by the mutations as well.

  1325. Lots of automatic censorship, deletions and filter systems are wiping out "uncomfortable" words and phrases. It's really annoying and stifles debate. YouTube should change their policy in the comment sections to people can talk freely.

  1326. You don't need to explain every word in parantheses lol Oil-dependent countries are diversifying their economy and preparing for a future with lowered oil prices and even a fully depleted fossil fuel sector. They're investing in foreign corporations/funds and building up projects domestically unrelated to fossil fuel.

  1327. Not really. He opposed lockdowns because ROI is all he cares about, he calls people that criticizes him "pedos", he uses drugs in public, issues irresponsible statements which crashed his own stocks, and is way too childish, just out for himself.

  1333. Disappointing. The SCOTUS should at least investigate and try the case. Not throw it out. Not when millions of americans are asking for answers and wishes to see transparent election results.

  1334. Trump insinuated that the democrats pretended to care about the virus when it benefitted them, and to criticize Trump no matter what he did. In that way, it's a "hoax" related to the russian collusion hoax, the ukraine hoax, and related to similar accusations. That was the point. Not to say that the "virus is a hoax". Nobody in their right mind has said that. Remember how the democrats all of a sudden forgot about the pandemic when blm fools rioted and burned down USA because some hooligan were neutralized by the police? They don't care about the pandemic.
    4
  1335. Sad, but let's build up your home countries rather than redistributing social and economic problems to Europe and North America. That's not fair. At least most Asian countries realizes this and says no.

    4
  1338. EU should cut ties with Turkey and block Europe to prohibit refugees from entering (Turkey is housing millions of Syrian rufugess on EU's payroll). Turkey has extorted EU into supporting their militaristic imperialist missions in the mediterranean sea and in northern Syria. Erdogan mocked the french president Macron's mental intellect because Macron cracked down upon terrorism. Cutting funds and support towards Turkey is a decent first step. Pushing them out from NATO would also be nice.
    4
  1339. Being brainwashed and a believer in theories that deviates from reality can make a person do a bunch of stupid things. That correlation can't be understated. Letting people believe and say whatever they want is therefore a bit naive.

  1340. Why do people always draw the race card? Probably because it works, even though it rarely is true. Adding to this cultural attitude should be discouraged.

  1341. How do you know that Oxford has done anything wrong? How do you know that racism was the cause of her resignation without knowing any of the details? We know how often people wrongly accuse treatment, appointments and scenarios of racism even though it isn't true. So why believe this girl all of a sudden, is it because she's Indian?
    4
  1342.  @vl8584  Maybe because Western nations generally are the most safe, prosperous and least racist countries in the world. Using an outlier case and a story that we don't know whether is true as evidence of the contrary won't work.

  1344. Accepting labor migrants through close oversight and by ensuring that they contribute to society has never been a problem, which is why these Gulf states thrives off of it. Europe on the other hand, has focused on a whole other range of migration policy, which has had a huge impact on the continent. There's a reason why these Gulf states has said blatant no to certain forms of migration, and even paying NGOs to avoid doing so.

  1345. Gotta say that I truly admire the way Vietnam has managed to survive and handle this crisis, even if I'm fiercely opposed to many political ideas that they cherish, or used to cherish.

  1347. I knew that people would get used to this host and start to prefer him. Took a while and a whole lot of spam to ignore, but the tone seems to have changed now to the new host's benefit.

  1348. Why should he give time to delusional skeptics that aren't looking out for anyone but themselves through the use of theories that no serious person is discussing because they make no actual sense? Even if a deliberate "reset" is occurring to restructure current flaws in our political system, that'd be a good thing. Great, in fact. Something to strive for.

  1351. Letting people live in a perverse manner by just handing out prescriptions is like letting a sheep poke itself and its friends in its skin to create widespread damage, and celebrating en masse when a small percentage of the sheep's skin is healed. The BEHAVIOR is what will continue to spread diseases to themselves and others and ought to be stopped. But nobody talks about that, because perverse conduct is defended in the West.

  1352. But you're still a ticking bomb, because you've probably contracted 300+ different diseases from your high-risk and hedonist deviancy.

  1353. Russia could have a great GDP growth today and be a decently stable place to live if they prioritized important matters rather than escalating tensions, creating conflict, indulging in imperialism and sponsoring socialist states. Lots is going to waste because of their vanity projects and carelessness.

  1354. While Mauritius seems like a promising part of Africa, it's an incredibly small country. Population rate wise, they only represent 0,1% of the African continent's population. A drop in the bucket. Most of Africa is still stuck in recession & regression.

  1355.  @Daniel-ye3tm  It's a false characterization. European conservatives doesn't reflect Kamala's views at all, really.
    4
  1356. If you're looking for people to be angry, perhaps apply to go see a psychiatrist, alternatively visit an anger management facility. That's not healthy. Kamala isn't conservative in any sense of the word, not in the US, not in Europe. You're not a conservative if you support a massive welfare system, criminals, decadence, murdering innocent children, and dismantling order and the traditional nuclear family.

  1357. That would be very undemocratic and disrespectful of them considering that the Polish population loves this government. Many, including the 'democratically' leaning EU, would be supportive of the cats, though.
    4
  1358. Have you noticed that almost everyone knows the date and has made the incident on Jan. 6 2021 to a historical day while they don't know the date that the violent riots last year occurred? Riots that lasted for 100 days and caused 100x times the damage and destruction compared with Jan. 6. Not to mention that the Jan. 6 demonstrations actually were defensible since the allegations of fraud weren't investigated and since illegals/criminals voted dem, with no restrictions.
    4
  1359. If that's true, that makes it even more sad. How can Cubans be satisfied with the current ineffective government and the communist party? Is it ignorance and propaganda that has pushed them to pledge allegiance even though they're poor with few opportunities?

  1360. Flogging for smoking? Damn, ,that ruler took public health seriously, if we solely look at that policy. The world would be so much cleaner, healthier and prosperous if every country imposed this penalty against unhealthy egoists.

  1362. I'm a ring-wing statist/nationalconservative, and I totally agree with these hosts reasoning for their picks. Trump has been a weak leader in many regards and completely messed up the corona response, so he doesn't deserves a trophy, in my opinion. That's not really a biased or leftist view, per se.
    4
  1363. Not really. He didn't designate Antifa as terrorists and didn't erase their rioting presence. He responded in a libertarian response to the virus. He didn't bring up the problem with criminals/unqualified voting to steal the election, but invoked fallible explanations as an attempt to overturn the election. Not very effective. I prefer Trump over the alternatives, but he could've done so much better.
    4
  1364. I think Macron deserves an award for stamping out jihadist violence and insurgency in the West, by infiltrators from the undeveloped world. For strengthening the France police force, or at least trying. For expelling threats and condemning political islam. For closing down mosques and imams radicalizing the populace. There's lots you can say about Macron, but this year has been a win for him, in terms of his great efforts taken to protect France and Europe.

  1365. Clinton, that might be one of the few positive outcomes of this pandemic. An increase in remote work, fewer offices/residential buildings demanded by businesses, and improved comfort for both the employer and employee. This will impact the aviation industry, hotels, and transportation/building industries though. Everything has its unexpected or unwanted side-effects.

  1366.  @kalzonenu  Did you watch the video at all?

  1367. That'll lead to only the rich getting into politics. Or the privileged. Give politicians proportional salaries instead. Make sure that politicians are paid for doing their job and penalized for defrauding their people, acting corrupt or presenting treasonous reforms.

  1368. Only if you promise to not vote for democrats or socdem parties, as most migrants sadly tends to do for many strange reasons.

  1369. Hotels are used to house and uphold many of these refugees, even though there's issues of homelessness, poverty and economic shortages that impacts British citizens. You'd hope that a "conservative" party, the Torries, would something about that. Especially now when they've left the EU.
    4
  1370. "China are doing something controversial that we perhaps shouldn't support" People: "Uhh....what about america!!!!!" That's how you sound. I don't mind China's actions if they're proportionate and needed and won't take a stance here, but go away with that irrelevant whataboutism.

  1374. This is one of the exams where high expectations are involved and with life-changing implications, right? The type of pressure that may be on factor that causes suicide.
    4
  1375. This violence is a part of the Central american culture and society. And people still wonder why the advanced world are willing to close their borders and protect their people from this moral deterioration and tangible threats? Sure, not everyone is a threat. But the risk is too immense to tone down. But...Biden will be opening up our borders and accepting everything that moves because Trump did the opposite to secure the country and uphold law & order. A contrarian move that will hurt many.

  1376. Inviting, housing and tolerating radical Islamists and sympathizers has its downsides. These attacks is one downside. Pakistan should re-evaluate.
    4
  1377. Bahrain and Qatar don't want them, because it may bring subversive, cultural, and economic problems. Every reasonable country realizes this. Accepting constant refugee streams instead of solving the core of the issue isn't realistic or clever either. Some of the more naive European countries should acknowledge this and change track.

  1378. "Don't watch independent reports or different points of view, only watch reports from my beloved propagandist leader" No wonder why India still is so backwards and has massive issues with illiteracy rates.

  1379. Even EU and most of Europe are realizing the risk that arises when mindlessly accepting poor and culturally different entities from the rest of the world without thorough monitoring or strong boundaries.

  1380. The riots in Hong Kong weren't manufactured by foreign entities. It may've been strengthened by USA and the EU supporting the vandals, but it's definitely a home made recipe. I support the new legislation as well, but you don't have to resort to conspiracies to justify your support. Bring the facts and truth to the table instead.
    4
  1381. The military junta's rule is inevitable. You may not like it, but it's unlikely that any condemnations, protests, riots and sanctions will change that. It's just a matter of time before the Myanmar people adjusts.

  1383. Don't enter a country with the assumption that freedom, rights and democracy prevails. That's rarely the case. Oppose a strongarm government and participate in protests? It'll of course result in you being punished. Self-explanatory.
    4
  1384. Many muslim dominated countries are questioning whether the "vaccine is halal or not". Many oppose vaccination. Many ignore the recommendations. So I can see why the delayal of vaccination has been seen in many of these countries. Scapegoating Israel's "blockade" is also a common scenario.
    4
  1385. That's always a comfortable and simplified slippery slope fallacy there.
    4
  1386. The loud Armenian people stands behind the military commander's statements, which is probably why the army pushed the PM to step down. The people has protested a lot recently to change leadership after the war's failure. So rather than addressing the army, why not address the people's warmongering?
    3
  1387. Is this the tacky golden shower parade that Bolsonaro has a contempt for? If so, it's strange that it is still permitted. I looked it up. Bolsonaro must have been referring to Pride parades, considering that the annual Brazilian Carnival seems to be popular among its people and especially the religious.
    3
  1388. The representative speaker for the Polisario Front sounds incredibly disrespectful and confrontative, while acting self-righteously conceited. Outright denying Algeria's role. Outright downplaying their role in the conflict. Not a great look.
    3
  1389. The world won't go to war because of Armenia and Azerbaijan has a stupid border dispute lol The residents in these countries should deescalate tensions and stop warmongering.
    3
  1390. Were they carried out by a recognized and official state? If so, that's usually why it isn't labelled as "terrorism" (if what you're saying is true). A brutal terror regime tends to be labelled as "terrorist" though.

  1391. Humans are always gonna find a reason to hurt, attack and murder each other unless checks are in place. Unless the right values are imprinted upon society. Tragic that humanity has such a depraved history of bloodlust, bloodbath and carnage.

  1392. Countries has vastly different interests and will always acts as roadblocks for each other when discussing foreign policy. That's the UN for you. But do we have any better alternatives than relying on that union for conflict mediation and deescalation?
    3
  1393. Exactly. Thank god that Lam is standing up for stability and for what's right, on the behalf of the calm and honorable HK citizens, and with CCP's assistance. I'm not a big fan of China, but I'm glad that they imposed the security legislation in HK to remove the vandals, rioters and to handle the economic downturn ASAP. This is the only way. Yet the Western world tries to issue backlash and criticism against the move, which is just ridiculous.

  1394. I feel bad for the Iranian people having to suffer from a bad theocratic, suppressive and extreme regime that don't have the people's interests in mind.
    3
  1395.  @cutiesanimalia1795  Lol no. Iran didn't respond at all, really. Iran had to establish mass graves to handle the spike in deaths and infections. They downplayed it worse than the US and experienced one of the worst crises in the world.

  1398. What are you trying to say?

  1399. Didn't Azerbaijan use chemical weapons, accept Turkish/Syrian fighters and military planes and equipment from Turkey? Thousands have died, pointlessly. War crimes has been seen on both sides.

  1400. And it'll take even longer to build up a civilization there. Musk's rockets has all exploded, thrice, the past 2 months. The optimism seems to have been a little too strong.

  1401.  @millimilli1755  "It's just a comment section". That's your excuse for misleading people by spreading unsubstantiated misinfo? The Mars rover project is very much known, verified and has been covered by plenty of organizations. Why would the footage be faked? What would the purpose of that be? Why would time and effort be put into faking the rover's adventures on Mars surface? Makes no sense. You have to provide som evidence with credence for your theories, instead of just dismissing everything you see.
    3
  1402. These measures comes across as quite meaningless and ineffective. The decentralized model in the US doesn't work. Every state should've taken the precise identical approach, to make it work and to prevent the spread. On command of the federal government.

  1404.  @toyotaprius79  Smoking has a huge detrimental effect on the environment. Billions of cigarettes are dumped on the ground around the world, in the seas, on ground. The production of tobacco releases emissions. Smoking itself pollutes the environment and people's lungs. Why doesn't Great focus more on this? Because it's authoritarian, and that's too controversial for a swede to support. We need to decrease consumption, electrify our roads, economy and housing market, and ensure that corporations are following environmental protocol to avoid polluting unnecessarily amounts of toxic pollutants/gases/substances.
    3
  1405. What's happening with the Palestinian population after the evictions? Had they built up or lived in illegally created estate and property? What's the background for razing these villages? Were they built close to military bases? I feel like Al Jazeera are leaving some important details out of the story.

  1406. You do know that nobody would voluntarily choose to live in Sudan if given other options, ye? Sudan is next to Ethiopia, hence the refuge.

  1408. Is Qatar still an ally of Hamas and its militant arm? Or will that cease to exist in the new deal with the Saudis and their colleagues? What will happen to Al Jazeera?
    3
  1409.  @dawnoo1801  They resorted to violent actions, such as burning down governmental buildings, killing off military officers/civilians and committing acts of terror. That's why the people supported the army to erase the problematic parts of the group. But this is never mentioned when the crackdown is discussed. People just scream "genocide" and "oppression" without knowing what it means.
    3
  1410. Yep. This is why competence and qualifications are important when appointing people to rule a country. And that cheating in elections must be restricted.
    3
  1411. The exodus from Venezuela is staggering. Large flows of people are laving the country. Yet, there's still many Maduro apologists out there. There's still calls to protect the current rule that has obliterated the country's state of affairs and oppressed its people.
    3
  1412.  @ZackKcaz  I believe that morals can be developed without a religious basis or doctrine. Philosophically, I think that actions and conduct that results in the undermination of someone's health, the removal of someone's life, injuring someone or infringing upon needed principles to preserve a stable, safe and prosperous nation, is immoral. That's how I base all my moral values on, and they align with many religious values. But that does not inherently make them religious, but rather backed up by data, scientific consensus regarding medical/public health, rational arguments, and based on what's needed to advance and protect society.
    3
  1413. It's a shame, really, but expected that Trump is gradually indicating that he'll hand over power. Democrats does not deserve to win or take over the WH. They support domestic terror groups, if you will (Blm, Antifa, groups that wreaked havoc because a thug died), convicts mainly vote Dem, illegal migrants votes Dem, Democrats opposes voter ID laws and laws that strengthen election security (pure cheating), and law & order, civility, favoring law-abiding citizens and improving the nation isn't even part of their vocabulary. Only traitors votes Blue. Shame that Republicans didn't do what it takes to stop them.

  1414. There's 2 choices. 1) Inject a regulated and approved vaccine that most likely is safe 2) Don't inject the vaccine, and let the pandemic continue wreaking havoc for years to come, potentially resulting in mutations that may be even more deadly.
    3
  1415. Not voting will still give the government legitimacy to do whatever they want. Some governments are objectively better than others, and will always be needed. If a good government is created with or w/o voting, it shouldn't matter.
    3
  1416. Women (and men) shouldn't roam around in public with their legs spread, without clothes and without planning ahead. Spitting on civilized relationships. That's what legalizing abortion would lead to. It's immoral, selfish and unhealthy for a stable society and should remain illegal.
    3
  1417. Yeah, it's reprehensible. Those who've conducted abortions, the women and its advocates should be prosecuted for crimes against humanity.
    3
  1418. France are removing violent jihadists and assisting the Mali state on the state's and populace's behalf. Show some respect for their efforts.
    3
  1419. What happens to Al Jazeera when this deal is finished? Think it'll stay?
    3
  1420. Which is why the French authorities are cracking down upon disturbing elements, terrorism and subversion. They're doing the right things here.
    3
  1421. A large portion of the Palestine population supports extreme interpretations of Sharia, ISIS, and Bin Laden. Its support is at its highest rate in the Arab world in Palestine. Why can't the current religious zealots, imams and Sharia-advocating dictators be replaced? Because the Palestine population have no say, may lack the education regarding what a good political direction looks like, and because such alternatives are rare to see in the Arab world. However, New Zealand's leader has done well in in this pandemic, but she's 21st century immoral socialdemocrat. Nothing to strive for.
    3
  1422. Why isn't the country's leadership establishing a police state with community support? Wipe out all of the weapon, drugs and flow of trafficking/smuggling. And remove all signs of insurrection through a zero tolerance broken windows policy. I don't see how violent militias can be met in any other way.
    3
  1423.  @marmalisticjuice1028  Way too many have entered Europe the past decades. We're in a destabilized dystopia because of that. I know that Gulf states are reluctant to take in migrants (for good reason, a policy that most countries should instigate), but some other solution to this issue must be reached.
    3
  1424. The best way of stabilizing Libya would be to close the loopholes, sources and floodgate that enables the civil war in the first place. A devalued currency to increase the export of what, gold and oil? That won't create long-term stability or attract investors.
    3
  1425. Many of the farmers are attacked and bribed by hostile "bandits". How would different food production rectify this lack of security in the country's regions? How would a plant based diet solve malnutrition and food shortages?
    3
  1426. Many of the attacks, the famine and the insecurity in the country has to do with religion still prevailing in the country, poisoning many minds and stifling innovation.
    3
  1427. Corruption and partial interference in 'independent' decisions, two of the most pervasive issues in Africa, and in the world.
    3
  1428. These are some of the most professional and objective news sources out there, and you're cheering on the destruction of their headquarters? Despicable.
    3
  1429. All humans are not equal. A country full of poverty, terrorism and violence will be treated different than a safe, stable and prosperous country. That's what any person with a will to survive would believe in. Do you lack that inner defense mechanism for self-preservation? Why should high risk individuals be able to travel freely and what does that policy area have to do with racism? Not everything is racism and arguments don't become more persuasive because of the use of such terms.
    3
  1430. The rich countries are the main producers and those who naturally deserve the profits from the creation of vaccines anyway. Lifting the patent waivers would likely not change much in terms of the total vaccine supply, nor maintain the safety.
    3
  1431. Yet some people believe that all sorts of cultures and countries are equally civilized and beautiful, just that they're in different stages of development. Such mindsets is what leads to Nigeria's and similar failed states cultural values invading the advanced world. It's a shame to see.

  1433. Leaving the country be and letting them do whatever they want hurts the North Korean people as well. Badly. And no, we can't ignore North Korea when the unstable top of the state develops nuclear weapons, commits atrocities against their people and the rest of the world, and when they threaten global peace.

  1436. Macau is likely how Hong Kong will look like a couple of years after the Chinese takeover in 2047. If it takes that long to fully take over the territory, that is.
    3
  1437. These rebels have added to drug trade, shootings, and mass death in Colombia from what I've heard. And it's now investigated about why they died and what happened? Shouldn't investigations be directed at sympathizing with and assisting the victims of FARC's violence instead?
    3
  1438.  @jzk2020  Were the living standards are bad under apartheid? Were the country as unstable and violent as today? In some cases, i'm sure you could argue that a form of centralized "apartheid", or control over the people, were better than the anarchist alternative seen today. Or?
    3
  1439. If the response includes using acts of terror, violence and warfare to attack innocent people, that's not a proportionate or defensible response at all. Australia and its allies are in 99% of cases targeting hard-wired terrorists with no concern for human life, decency or peace. You can frame it as if innocent bystanders and residents are being targeted, but that would be a lie.
    3
  1440.  @kaidi223  She had the right to serve on the committee that was decided when she were elected. That democrats are trying to remove her and deplete her ability to have influence goes against their own 'democratic' values and infringes upon the constitution, arguably. You can't just decide to strip someone of their power and duties because of disagreements with her previous statements (before being elected) or history. Not how it works.

  1441. This comment section can't get any worse. I hope authorities, especially in France, are monitoring how the Arab world reacts to these news. And towards Macron's efforts to remove terrorism from Europe.

  1442. Likewise. Sorry to hear about your country's brutal past. Hope it's better now. Merry christmas and happy new years!
    3
  1443. First of all, don't riot. If you now have to riot, do so subtlety. And don't do it under a pandemic where human transmission of a virus is common. And don't use violence. Break all of these guidelines at once? Ramifications will always arise, unless you live in a corrupt lawless state where no rules apply (nonexistent).
    3
  1444. All parties involved in the "land grab" in Western Sahara are suspect. A nation claiming the territory as their own is arguably more credible than a random rebel group though.
    3
  1445. EU has dropped the objective to preserve peace and stability though. This project with Russia may be an exception because cheap energy and economic growth often takes precedence for the EU. EU keeps sanctioning Russia for their domestic political affairs. They penalize Hungary and Poland for nationalist politics supported by the people. Acts undiplomatically when dealing with China or their Asian allies. Provokes and bites due to political differences. I wouldn't call such a player a peacekeeper.
    3
  1446. It's tragic that plenty of African nations still have these immense and widespread issues with domestic terrorism, rebels and militant enclaves taking up arms to massacre everyone in their way. May authorities receive the assistance and resources to stamp out these unwanted elements once and for all..
    3
  1447. Yes. To an extent. But an army is still important for self-defense, to favor one's interests and to create jobs. Remember, the Pentagon is the largest public employer in the world.
    3
  1448. Hitler and Germany fell because they were full of vanity. Thought they could attack strong forces on several different fronts simultaneously, the Northern, West and Eastern front. Expanding everywhere, extracting resources, letting German troops suffer and freeze to death, and eliminating everything in its path, isn't a recipe for success or peace. Although that type of behavior was a common trend by many countries back then.
    3
  1449.  @Nickelodeon81  Switzerland has very strict gun control. You have to serve in the army, pass mental health checks, perform training and receive a license to own a gun. That's why Switzerland has zero issues related to gun crime. And yes, the society is stable with very few problematic groups as opposed to USA. You speak as if you don't support gun control, but you actually do support it if you refer to the Swiss model.

  1450. I hope the CCP reforms their imperialist foreign policy and start removing their reliance on gas, oil, and coal. If they do that, I wouldn't be surprised if they shortly replace USA as the global superpower, economically and morally.

  1451. Nobody is saying that China is at fault. Well, apart from being responsible for the coronavirus outbreak and all the unavoidable restrictions that arose and impacted freight ships, transportation routes and trade overall.

  1452.  @diogenes926  US has a massive military budget, has frequent maintenance and the tools in place to ensure that only the most high qualitative equipment and vehicles are used in service. Does Indonesia have that? Unlikely. They're therefore taking a bigger risk. Unnecessarily.

  1455. To push the regime into holding legitimate elections. The opposition knows that the current political system and elections are illegitimate and flawed. Participating in a flawed system as if it isn't flawed, could give the regime and the world the perception that the system is fine and that the cheating "win" by the regime was legitimate. That would not be preferred.
    3
  1456. Thanks for your efforts against terrorism and to reestablish peace in the Middle East, the United States. Appreciated. It's just a shame that the effort hasn't been enough to eliminate all of these subversive and militant rebel groups.
    3
  1457. Nope. Trump is trying to make sure that no irregularities has occurred. That the electoral results are investigated independently. Just like how Democrats did (although the Dems had no real valid reason to do so) back in 2016. Did you complain about that? And are you from a "democratic" country? Most Al Jazeera viewers lives in dictatorships, that they tend to defend. So they shouldn't speak out about other countries, that's just hypocritical.
    3
  1458. Because they've been using violent insurgency, killed innocent citizens and tried to take over the government to forcefully implement their fundamentalist brainwashed ideology. Just like ISIS and Al-Qaeda, Think about what you're defending here. Or are you paid to say this? Coerced to sympathize with actual armed terrorists in Yemen? The Houthis are mainly responsible for the civil war in Yemen and the worst humanitarian crisis in modern times. Don't position yourself on the twisted side of history.

  1460. Another failure for DeSantis. Deregulation and very little insight into areas such as waste management, water production, and meeting people's basic needs in a secure manner is gonna lead to these problems reoccurring time and time again. Letting profits dictate everything is clearly not always the answer. I wonder if republicans ever will acknowledge that or if their rich donors and lobbyists will keep them in the dark at the expense of everyone.

  1461. Not only undefeated, they'll undermine and destroy american national security and they'll be proud of it. They won't see any correlation between undermined security/crime, and their open border policies.

  1462. The lockdowns worked wonders in plenty of nations. Look at NZ, China, Singapore, Taiwan, the Nordic countries (minus the ugly twin Sweden), Australia and some others. They closed down hard for a short period of time, to then open up relatively quickly and let the economy rebound, with few lives lost. Following the science tend to work.

  1463. An announcement of herd immunity? What do you mean by that. Vaccinating the people to create a protective barrier against the virus?

  1465. Myanmar's military has generally not done anything wrong from what we know at the moment. The accusations of genocide and systematic persecution aren't proved, but rather overblown.

  1468.  @A.D.540  Less than 1% of the Chinese lives in absolute poverty, compared with 15% of Cubans. The system is clearly broken. And it's funny that you talk about "China not being good on human rights" when you're comparing it to the dictatorial one party state of Cuba. It's like comparing two bloodthirsty wolves.

  1476. The response by US conservatives (liberals, in actuality) towards the Thanksgiving recommendations and coronavirus restrictions as a whole has been disgusting to see. So much short-sighted selfishness. So many conspiracies, foolish objections and pseudo-scientific reasoning to justify their position. I don't get why it's so hard to see that we're in this together and have to do what it takes to get us through this pandemic ASAP, with minimal damage to the economy, social costs, and public health. That does not imply gathering en masse with your family and extended family during this holiday. That does not imply improperly screaming "totalitarianism" while going out to transmit and contract the virus without thinking twice. Do better, americans, and the world.

  1477. So the Iraqi state devalued their own currency to "reduce pressure on public finances". Does an increase of one's exports and shift in the Iraqi trade balance increase the tax revenue to a point where the public finances are more balanced 🤔

  1478. Do you seriously think that Israel unilaterally are abandoning a two state solution? They've literally been normalizing ties with Bhutan, Morocco, UAE, Sudan and others lately, as opposed to Palestine that only are shouting for the total eradication of Israel and its people. Who's seeking peace again? As for some of the others points, which I presume you're ascribing to Trump: Cooperating with "dictators" is what a president does to improve relations and secure USA's interests. Promoting oil over renewables is a bad thing, impossible to defend. Spending on the military is something that every establishment politician does, especially pro-military GOP. BUT, Trump has pulled back thousands of troops and mediated peace deals, while of course signalling against hostile allies that supporting rebels and attacking US tropps will be met by force.

  1481. This is a move of regressivism. Every person who were active under Obama, who've seen which type of movements and people Biden has behind him, and who've studied Biden's political positions, knows this. A center-left wing administration will push america back several steps.

  1482. Ban smoking, campfires and the use of disposable grills. Oh, and limit the use of coal mines/coal-fired plants to prevent a rising temperature. All of these factors is needed to prevent pervasive wildfires in the future and all of the related side-effects from climate change. We don't want to see the same Australian crisis from last year repeat itself, where around a billion animals died, hundreds of thousands had to evacuate, firefighters were injured and much pressure were applied on authorities.

  1483. You mean how Australia neutralized ticking bombs and terrorists in Afghanistan, to prevent the type of daily bombings, suicide attacks and hostage situations that we see there? Do we even know that innocent civilians were targeted?

  1485. I don't necessarily disagree with the outcome here, but it's strange for courts to all of a sudden basically change and Dutch law or interpret the constitution in a distorted manner by adjusting the modern standards. Many corporations would be forbidden and punished by these new constitutional interpretations, after these corporations have been totally permitted for decade after decade. Strange that the court system holds this amount of power.
    3
  1486. Almost nobody are "shot" or "murdered" based on how they look. They're "shot" or "murdered" after they've committed crimes, infringed upon others, posed a threat, resisted arrest and made poor decisions. Sounds like you've got a derogatory stance against certain demographics while pretending to care about fighting racism and standing up for all. Weird.

  1487. He was literally a communist. He exploited the capitalist system to become rich, evaded taxes, gathered a bunch of debt, while opposing the system that made him into the successful person that he became (in some regards). He defended an ideology that historically has resulted in mass murder, oppression, and economic downturn. But he grew up in a poor family, with presumably little education and a society governed by socialism, so I suppose we can't judge him too hard for not seeing the risks posed by such a system, and for improperly thinking that Maduro, Chavez, Castro, Guevara and other radical revolutionaries would solve economic injustice and societies in decay.
    3
  1488. Violence as a whole and aggressive instincts is the problem, something that should be fought against. Not from a feminist perspective or on gender lines, that's just provocative and won't get anyone onboard. "An average of 10 women is murdered every day." How many men are killed and injured on a daily/annual basis? I'm sure that data will make these stats unflattering and less persuasive.
    3
  1489. What are you even trying to say? That Modi and his media loyalists are saying that everything is well even though that isn't, according to you, the case? Apart from the lack of toilet usage, poverty, and rape epidemic in India, what is the problem in the country?
    3
  1490. That way of thinking is what has caused so many issues in the West in the recent decades, so no. We need a balance. Letting vandals, rioters and subversive grouping spread their hostile messages and tactics of violence...would be seen as a human right. That can obviously never be accepted. Total human freedom is what caused a spike in the coronavirus death toll as well. And human/moral decay.

  1491. Pathetically sad. If Bolsonaro took the pandemic seriously, Brazil could've reopened their society completely, the trade, businesses, and avoided layoffs/a staggering unemployment rate. But nope, a prolonged pandemic was the choice that the administration took.

  1494.  @Fillintheblankspace  What false propaganda? Does China have similar issues with disproportionate crime rates related to race? Calling that out and countering it isn't propaganda. China claiming that USA "kills black people" would on the other hand be propaganda, because that's the opposite of what's happening. Arresting and neutralizing criminals is natural.

  1497. @g mun22 Both men and women are responsible when reproducing. But it's primarily the woman's job to ensure that her endeavors do not result in pregnancy unless she's planning for that to happen. There's many ways to avoid a pregnancy if you're determined to do so, and if you care about protecting fetuses by preventing having to take shady decisions in the future. You don't need to sterilize the woman or man to prevent pregnancies, so that comparison makes no sense. Why is it so much to ask for women (and men) to act cautiously and think ahead prior to making life-changing decisions? Nobody should be incentivized nor enabled to eradicate a perceived misfortune (a life) to uphold their comfortable life and justify their poor decision making.

  1498. Looking here at the Corruption Perceptions Index, Ghana seems to be perceived as one of the least corrupt countries in Africa. That says a lot huh, when corruption still is pervasive? South Africa and Senegal seems to be doing better, then comes Ghana. Rank 80 in the world.
    3
  1499. The only good thing from this is that the chance of the West receiving what they want diminishes. The West has humiliated Kyi for years and interfered in Myanmar to protect societal threats under the slogan "democracy & human rights", and now they pretend caring about Kyi's well-being and wishes for her rule to return. Here comes the backlash.
    3
  1500. Don't simplify someone's track record like a biased actor. She received the nobel peace prize DECADES prior to the military's crackdowns, that she had nothing to do with, against the small minority groups accused for sympathizing with the terror attacks against the Myanmar police and civilians. Whether the term "genocide" is appropriate or not can be debated. The matter hasn't been resolved. Kyi has denied the few transgressions by the military, and did not order the military to go in and restore order in several villages.
    3
  1501. Good, frankly. There's no justifiable reason to support or participate in the aggressive anti-government movement who've harassed individuals with suspected mainland ties, burned down the city, attacked the police, destroyed infrastructure/traffic lights/public property, etc, and who've issued a list of unhinged demands. I can see why China implemented the security law. It is totally needed to insert control, get the economy back on track, and make sure that law & order prevails. I gotta say that many Westerners and anti-Chinese activists have got an incoherent and wrongful stance on the matter that can't be defended. And I say this as someone who's usually a heavy critic of China.
    3
  1502. No big deal. Sensationalism. If these Myanmar-based migrants avoids rioting and abides by the laws, nothing will happen to them.
    3
  1503. Surely it must be a better way of detecting and pointing out every member of a terrorist group and every person sympathizing with the group, to then go on and neutralize them. Especially if an African country receives assistance from abroad. Why are there still such a broad presence of these rebels? And how is the recruitment so successful? I presume it's the desperation and lack of education that most citizens suffer from, but surely there's something that we're missing here.

  1506. Bashing the US and bringing forward a liberal leftist agenda isn't as easy if lies and strawmen isn't used to spread easily digested messages to the public. Even corporations buys into the nonsense these days. Into marxist blm propaganda. Racist narratives. That every citizen entering the US illegally is an angelic enricher or a nuclear scientist. That the US has no moral right to protect themselves or americans.
    3
  1507. There's nothing wrong with penalizing promiscuous ladies without morals, as long as the lady actively were involved in the decision making, of course. Unfortunate that it had to affect children though. Side note, does Al Jazeera report on the contemporary human rights abuses committed by every Gulf state? Is that not of much concern? I see a bunch of hit pieces on modern leftist and amoral countries, about their conservative past, etc. Nothing on the Islamic world.
    3
  1508. Why would anyone in their right mind plant bombs in areas where innocent villagers may detonate them and die/be injured? To intimidate and deceive people into supporting the separatist rebel/terror group? So unethical.
    3
  1509. Interesting to hear from this infamous man. I agree with his characterizations of Bolsonaro and his immense failures the past years, especially throughout the corona. Lula's economic policy seems questionable though. And he keeps on peddling conspiracies about the US trying to implement a certain candidate in Brazil just for the oil. Could it rather be so that some of the US prefers stability and a pro-capitalist pro-growth candidate in Brazil rather than an anti-US, leftist, and revolutionary individual in favor of a slow and counterproductive economic policy?
    3
  1510. Why are you so inclined to prevent border checks, security checks, and implement open borders..? National states and national security in every nation state is a fundament for their survival.
    3
  1511. Did he resist arrest? Threaten the cops? Commit a severe crime? In 99% of these controversial police arrests, one or several of these forementioned boxes tends to be checked off...which justifies the arrest and rough intervention in almost Every. Single. Case.
    3
  1512. You can't argue with racists. You can't argue with those that places the label "racist" on every moving creature. You can't argue with those who fundamentally have a polar opposite vision than you. Well, you can argue, but it'll lead nowhere and no one's minds will be changed.
    3
  1513.  @tituss559  Because many humans are animals that can't control their own desires, think about others or plan ahead. Many can't think of what their actions may lead to. This is an issue everywhere that needs governmental regulation. Punishments for leaving a child. Sanctions against those reproducing irresponsibly. Encouragements to work hard and stay together in a family, etc.
    3
  1514. Iran is blaming the USA and the world for their own blunders and negligence. For their own religious dogmatism that has blinded the nation and removed all forms of logical thinking. They're blaming the West when they sponsor terrorists, enrich uranium to build up a nuclear arsenal, threatens others, and aren't looking for peace. For attacking their own citizens. Iran aren't the victims in this saga. If they follow standard protocols and behaves professionally, vaccines, medicine and food can be delivered to the country without breaking sanctions.
    3
  1515. Increase the taxes a little on those who can afford it instead of penalizing the weak and those at the bottom. Or alternatively, cut in the redundant parts of the current state budget and receive a surplus of capital which you can bailout people and corporations hit by the pandemic with.

  1516. Excessively beating students does probably not solve any disorder in the classroom. Although disciplinary rules and dress codes can prevent bullying and minimize the presence of those who aren't compatible with studying together with other students in a classroom.

  1521. Yep. The definition of evil. I'm still appalled that there are still countries out there not applying a complete zero tolerance policy against the barbaric figures that indulges in beheadings, threats and violent force against innocent people to build up a caliphate. Removal and strict penalization is the only answer to these creatures

  1523.  Double u OohEnA  Staying indoors as much as possible and showing basic decency for others by following coronavirus guidelines is morally righteous. It doesn't mean that you have to stay indoors forever, that's a foolish conspiracy theory. Protecting yourself and the population isn't communist. In fact, people would die en masse if we listened to your advice here. Just like under communist regimes.

  1524.  @justdogood7413  Nope. They're being assimilated and integrated in order to prevent terrorism. Look up the history of what deadly actions that the minority group has inflicted upon the state and innocent Chinese civilians. Hundreds have died. Thousands injured. 5,000 in the community joined ISIS. Yet you're trying to prevent China from ensuring security? lol. The world is laughing.

  1525.  @samuraiyasuke3709  He didn't say anything "mean", did you respond to the right person? Anyway, if you lived in Europe, you'd be aware why there's many critical attitudes of the rising migrations streams from Africa, Asia and undeveloped countries. Preaching tolerance and acceptance loses it charms quite quickly when you realize the implications of this advocacy.

  1526. The fewer people, the fewer personnel and resources you have. And the same applies to the contrary situation. A large area/population rate tend to imply more personnel and resources to inoculate a demographic ASAP. That Alaska has a lower population rate isn't relevant nor the reason why they've succeeded.
    3
  1527. "Critics say the wait is causing a rise in social problems, as young people with too much spare time are turning to drugs and prostitution." And the government doesn't do what it takes to eliminate this? So much for the most "stable, democratic and functionable country in Africa" 🙄

  1529. Myanmar doesn't deserve to have to deal with the existence and ramifications of militant insurgency, riots and terrorism either. The government didn't start this.
    3
  1530. Punishing terrorism and establishing decisive control in high-risk communities isn't systematic discrimination, so the term commonly used to describe what's happening to this group is blatant misinfo. Committing terrorism and harsh crimes against the Myanmar society will remain unacceptable. Tell that to every demographic in the country and outside.

USA has its flaws (and will deteriorate not when Biden got into office), but it has got one of the highest standards of living, the fastest growing and biggest economy on earth, and has a low illiteracy rate. Something that can't be said for many nations.

  1537. He'd be referring to the military industrial complex, all of its investments, weapon manufacturing and usage of the armored vehicles/interceptor planes/fleets/weapons. I wouldn't be surprised if Pentagon therefore emits more pollution than most of the world. It's the largest employer in the world. He of course did not refer to just the building... This site needs an age- or educational limits.
    3
  1538. There's a dozens of countries that don't recognize nor adhere to human rights conventions formed by European or North American countries. Expecting a country like Egypt to do so is naive and a pipe-dream. Protesting or speaking up against such type of leadership is like shooting yourself in the foot and complaining about the gun.

How can anyone in their right mind, if they care about other human beings, support North Korea by painting out USA as the enemy here? And what does strict foreign policy have to do with domestic anti-bullying courses..? The "logic" here is astonishing.

  1546. A liberal Christian democratic party and a socialist party seems to be the main contenders in the incoming election in Cape Verde. There is however a 3rd alternative, the "Democratic and Independent Cape Verdean Union", which is a center-right conservative party but they barely have any support. I'd personally have gone for the 3rd option based on just taking a quick peek on their platforms. Anyone from Cape Verde who have special insight on these 2021 parliamentary elections?

  1547. It was relatively successful for a while under Chavez and when the oil industry was booming. The oil market crashed. Who could've thought that putting all of one's eggs in one basket would be an immense risk? Not Venezuela's socialist rule, apparently. Nationalizing several important industries, hiring unqualified workers, engaging in price fixing, stifle free trade, printing a bunch of cash to handle shortages (causing hyperinflation) and playing a blame game instead of acknowledging that your anti-profit socialist policies doesn't work, is a recipe for disaster. That is seen every single time someone tries to steer their country into a socialist direction.

  1554. There's lots of ties improved with Israel lately. I wonder if that'll shift under Biden. If Biden shifts foreign policy, withdraws the US recognition of Morocco's claims in Western Sahara, and strengthens Iran's position again by entering the Iran nuclear deal. Maybe the Arab world and Palestinian position will start to gain advantages again? Although Biden has said that he'll continue some of Trump's foreign policy and relation with Israel.

  1555.  @ivaankairav3654  It's very restricted in countries that actually are religious. The countries that haven't let leftists and progressive NGOs infiltrate and indoctrinate the religious part of society in a way that undermines the initial doctrine. Reformed Christianity isn't Christianity. I'm not personally religious, and even I acknowledge the poor conduct and unacceptable values that leads a person down the path of starting to accept the eradication of innocent life.

  1558. Donations would probably be stolen by some corrupt official and eaten up. Targeted donations to these girls wouldn't change much anyway. It's the structures that creates extremist islamists that should be countered. The structures that indoctrinates children with religious doctrines from a young age, by controlling them, forcing them to dress a certain way, and believe in something that isn't proven.

  1561. In many ways, yes. These days, they contribute with billions in aid to many broken countries as well. But that doesn't fit the narrative of shunning and making fun of the scapegoat that is Great Britain, to explain why all of one's personal or societal problems exists.

The millions of criminals and some illegals voting (unethetically benefitting the Democrats) hasn't been pointed out. You can't say that no evidence exists when plenty of sworn affidavits and proof has been provided, but not looked into. Just dismissed. Yet in 2016, many investigations and claims of fraud/cheating were expressed. The media characterized it as true. How come?

  1564. Did anyone else watch the full speech live? I nearly fell asleep during the speech due to its length and the time of day. But the speech was overall captivating and delivered in a cleverly structured way. Apart from his climate change rejections, anti-lockdowns/anti-mask advocacy, and libertarian approach on some issues (e.g, 2A), I mostly agree with what he said. The boos and screams of "traitor" when Trump praised McConnell was hilarious as well. The most memorable moment.

  1566. The US wants a safe, fair and legitimate election. Guaido is trying to create such circumstances, why is why 50+ nations (not just the US) supports him. Maduro has hunted down and barred large parts of the opposition. Banned international watchdogs in elections. Received 80% or so of the vote with a <20% approval rate. Suspect?

  1567.  @benghazi4216  Imagine being this stupid to the point where you think the trial was impartial and fair. Do you believe the verdict provided in dictatorial banana republic too? Are you that easily deceived? I provided an explanation as to why the trial wasn't fair in the comments, here a copy paste version: Biden interfered last night prior to the verdict. Maxine Waters incited violence and basically suggested that a riot would be even more confrontative then last year if a guilty verdict wasn't provided. The jury wasn't sequestered. The crime family was given $20M+ during the trial. The prosecutor denied certain evidence by the defense.

  1571.  @alextajik1159  Iran aren't fascist. They're a theocratic dictatorship with many authoritarian elements. As for the imperialist part, that can be seen as truthful based on their threats against the rest of the world and involvement in sponsoring militia groups in many different countries to support their own expansionist agenda. That's not a made-up Facebook statement, it's indisputably truthful.

  1573. Yeah, but you're forgetting some important background details. Iran has sponsored terrorist movements in the middle east, destabilized/threatened their enemies, didn't follow the nuclear agreement, is building up Assad's rogue state, and can clearly not be trusted. That's why the US left the deal and enforced tough measures against Iran. The US aren't the culprits.

Think about that.

  1576.  @WashingtonDC20032  The fact that you're defending a drug-abusing criminal who've threatened and traumatized other people is disgusting and insulting to every honest individual and stable society out there.

Incentivize the people to start valuing bettering the country, respecting each other and wiping out beliefs that leads to bloodshed, and you may be on the right track. Until then, the world should avoid associating with this type of country.

Syria sponsors terrorism, crushes their own population, is ruled by a corrupt leadership that lives luxuriously at the expense of its people, and can't create a stable country with equal opportunity, clearly.

All the migration that we've accepted. Do some research.

USA doesn't benefit by having its troop in South Korea. They're there to protect regional stability and SK from NK aggression, no matter its costs.

  1615. Ban straw huts and replace them with mud or brick shaped huts? Sounds like a good option. Building schools and houses with material that is easily flammable is like asking for trouble.

  1616. Should a communist drug-addict who staunchly rejected every effective economic and political ideology, be placed on a bank note? I don't think so. Argentina are suffering from corporations leaving the country en masse by its penalizing tax rate, economic stagnation, huge debts, and a situation that 8/10 Argentinians wants to leave. This is partially connected to the ideology that Maradona stood for. Think about that.

  1617. Right, the corrupt officials and rogue state in Venezuela and Cuba mainly steal and embezzle their money, which they don't use to create a desired country that cares and helps its people. We know that some BLM front figures has been trained in Venezuela by radical marxists. We know that these socialist hellholes has had a bad influence domestically and abroad. Wouldn't be surprised if they've got their dirty claws stuck in US politics as well, to the benefit of the Blue party.

  1618. Why isn't the Myanmar army's style and Chinese tactics used against ISIL? Shouldn't be that hard to tackle and assert control over these groups with such approaches. Although I presume the EU and UN are stating that it's a little to harsh, preventing the tactics from being initiated, which is what upholds the trend where these acts of terrorism are commonplace.

  1619. Erdogan is once again warmongering and dividing NATO/the world. The USA condemned the attacks on the Turkish soldiers. Why wasn't that enough? Why does Turkey expect every country on earth to blindly take their word for it when they're a nation fuelled by propaganda, censorship, creating conflict with everyone and starting wars on questionable premises? Erdogan is a threat to the world and his country should be removed from NATO.
    3
  1620.  @tyrionlannister6459  Nope. Defaulting on debts, spending other people's money without creating any, and maintaining fiscal/monetary policies that no economist believe leads to growth is the problem in these leftist countries. Not USA. Not capitalism. Not conservatism. Sounds like you need to do some research and push the dogma aside there. Good to see that Ecuador has chosen a better path.

  1621. The scene hasn't changed at all. Trump and his supporters hasn't shifted policy, stances, or how they behave. Twitter and the world decided to exaggerate the incident on Capitol Hill to crackdown upon every scapegoat that could be sacrificed and burned at the sake, after having been silent when BLM burned down USA for months this summer. Nothing is "dangerous" or "divisive" about what Trump, the republican party or his base believes. They're moderates, as opposed to many other parts of the world where actual radical policies exists. If you celebrate this, you're fine with biased suppression, persecution and oppression of innocent dissidents. I know many of Al Jazeera's viewers are in favor of that (because their home countries works that way), which is despicable and unfortunate. But think of it this way, would you be fine with this arbitrary suppression if you, your associates and beliefs were (and they will be) targeted in the same way?

  1622. If you're insinuating that the USA shouldn't interfere in other countries elections because of USA's own irregularities, foreign interference and potential fraud in the 2020 election that wasn't investigated, resulting in further division and anger, I agree. If you're insinuating that the angry reaction to the election result by the few means that "US can't be trusted democratically due to not having control over the republican/right-wing mobsters", that is not true. The latter response exists in every country and isn't a measurement that you can use to prove that the country isn't credible or that it can't be trusted.

  1623. What AOC says is always politicized and doesn't mean much. The rioters weren't armed, were casual clowns, and took nothing seriously. Nobody were close to dying,realistically.

  1627. Seems like Rio's mayor is taking the pandemic relatively seriously, compared with the government and Bolsonaro that has diminished the outbreak since its inception. I can see that it's hard for impoverished/2nd world countries to take outbreaks seriously when many barely have food on the table. But many countries with such a status has managed to implement some restrictions and cautious policies. There's no excuse not to at least acknowledge it and try to signal that we must collectively take it seriously, which Bolsonaro sadly didn't do, therefore the country's high infection/death rate.

Much of the operations are secretive, subtle and classified, causing natural excitement by curious people. There's many lessons to learn about societies and the world from these genres.

  1637. Maybe because there's nothing positive to say about the countries in the south, which is why everyone is fleeing from there if they can. Expecting people to apply Occam's razor before making incomprehensible comments is as usual too much to ask for though.

  1640. The capitalist route that China has taken has resulted in lifting millions from poverty. The standards of living under Mao and strict communism during the 20th century meant that Chinese citizens had to suffer greatly under horribly low standards of living. So it's easy to understand why many are supportive of the government that has been behind this. Well, it's not like the citizens has any other choice, but still.

  1643. Such a foolish thing to say. Terrorists has been neutralized in the middle east because the US were attacked. Show some respect. And everyone are affected by this outbreak, not just the US.

  1646. *In court on Monday, assistant district attorney Joan Illuzzi accused Rotunno of “degrading and humiliating” one of the prosecution’s witnesses in an interview with CNN earlier this month. Rotunno said that was not her intent. * *If the jury perceives Rotunno as aggressive, it could hurt Weinstein’s case, said defense attorney Michael Bachner. * *“Just because you’re a woman doesn’t mean you can beat up in a way the jury finds offensive,” he said, adding that an attorney’s skill and character will matter more to jurors than gender. * *A former prosecutor, Rotunno has represented some 40 defendants accused of sexual assault since she opened her own firm in Chicago in 2005, she said. * *Weinstein has cycled through several high-profile lawyers since his indictment in 2018, and one said Weinstein’s behavior made the job “unreasonably difficult.” Rotunno, the first woman to lead his defense, said she finds Weinstein “very easy to work with.” * *Her clients have included Senegalese fashion designer Elhadji Gueye and Stanley Stallworth, a former partner at Chicago law firm Sidley Austin, who were both accused of rape and acquitted. * *Rotunno said she does not support the #MeToo movement because it can unfairly sway public opinion against defendants. * *Her belief that unproven allegations and media scrutiny had eroded Weinstein’s right to a fair trial motivated her to take the case, she said. * “I knew that being a woman at this sort of crossroads in history with MeToo and Times Up, I knew that my role in it would be different than that of a male lawyer,” Rotunno told Reuters. “People say well wait, you’re going against your gender or how dare you. But to me, there’s something bigger than our gender and that’s our rights.” Wow. This defence lawyer is truly a brilliant and rational woman. Much props.

  1650.  Gunter Ringgenberg  Well, I disagree. Optimally, cop should do whatever it takes to render criminals harmless, if it's proven that they've committed severe crimes. The police has to protect themselves and the public from substantial threats, shooters, murderers and psychos wreaking havoc. In such cases, they're cracked down upon by fierce intervention. That's how it works in every democracy, and every country. They're not executing them, but intervening, attempting to arrest, and doing what it takes to protect themselves.
    3
  1651.  Gunter Ringgenberg  Focus on what actually matters. The police aren't the threat or danger worth focusing on if you're a normal law-abiding citizen. The crime, assault, murders, shootings and felonies committed is what should be focused on if you care about justice and peace. This trend is partially prevented by hindering the overrepresented crime groups from time and time again misbehaving and destroying communities. Yet this is dismissed as "raycism". Shaming the police for doing their job and stopping abhorrent lawbreakers is a despicable priority to have. I've only seen brainwashed people, virtue signallers, terrorists and criminals support such a stance.

When you signal that you'll accept people, give citizenship and suspend border controls, people will come en masse. That's what we've seen. I don't even read Fox News nor any right-wing bureaus, so let's not claim that this has anything to do with partisan reporting.

  1667. Solitary confinement is used to prevent the spread of viruses, to prevent violence, and ensure that dangerous culprits, serial killers and pedophiles can't infringe upon other people. They deserve it. Having sympathy for these people is what's the problem, not the penalties itself. Humanizing these threats is a huge threat to society itself, which many naive and short-sighted people can't see.

Celebrating a biased news report because it agrees with your views isn't a good thing, considering that it ignores the risk of gaming addiction and mental health complications that many experience related to gaming, may be seen as an idealization of gaming, and isn't representative. Strive for neutral and informative reporting, not biased reporting.

  1673. "ruined society", lol. The economies in countries that has closed down are usually doing better than the open countries, because the countries who've used quarantines/curfews don't have to really worry about the virus anymore as opposed to the opened ones. Closed down countries has saved thousands of lives. Has bumped the pandemic to the future which has resulted in an increase of cures, prescriptions and vaccines being developed in the meantime, which benefits everyone. Temporary mental health deterioration (a cop-out by many egoists looking to do nothing to protect others) doesn't outweigh the mass death, sickness and societal implications of letting the virus freely wreak havoc.

Getting these predictions correctly and journalists providing the information and predictions that reflect reality is incredibly important unless you're looking for further distrust and condemnation of the media by all sides, especially the right-wing, because the media is controlled by center/leftists in most Western countries.
    3
  1679.  @Chris47368  That's a lie. Historically, everyone has been involved in conflict, war and imperialism. Those who weren't, probably lived secluded in a hut without making any contributions to humanity. The past decades, the affluent world has contributed with many billions to assist and build up the "less fortunate" countries and populations. We rule, dictate and carry this world and its problems on our shoulders. So show some respect and gratitude, frankly. It's obvious that the important players should be vaccinated first. Communists claiming that we should socialize this field too are so naive.

  1680. Watch out so you don't manage to create another pandemic or epidemic by letting these animals wander around everywhere. ;)

  1681. UK is one of the least countries on earth. Humorous parallells and scrutinizing powerful figures no matter their background, isn't rayczism.
    3
  1682. Giving concessions to animalistic extremists wasn't good. But the 20 year campaigns in the middle east hasn't worked when it comes to minimizing influence of the Taliban. New generations joins the extremist group due to their delusions, lack of education and Taliban's recruitment processes. Something had to be done, and in this case it entailed putting America and american troops first. I'm sure future intervention against the Taliban may be needed though. Trump brokered several peace deals and didn't declare any wars. He didn't abide by Putin's demands. So such insinuations should be left out of the debate.
    3
  1683.  @danielwhyatt3278  Separatists aren't part of the "people" in its broad sense. They're fringe terrorists. Every state and its people tend to be in favor of a "war" against such destabilizing groups.

  1684. Stop referring to prostitutes as sex workers. Such euphemisms only serves to destroy civilized countries.

  1685.  @matematiginparadoksu987  Stop spamming and stop self-advertising trash content, thanks.
    3
  1686. Even companies labelling themselves as philanthropic and "for the people" have to play somewhat by the rules and make a profit. That anyone is surprised by that is surprising.
    3
  1687. Would you let a virus spread freely without enforcing any real shutdowns or restrictions if the virus were 10x as deadly as the flu? Even the flu is taken very seriously. So no one in their right mind would trivialize or dismiss this virus.
    3
  1688. This prosecution is justified to reimplement peace and order in the city. Vandals terrorizing everybody, shaming the police, making things up, spreading subversive propaganda, destroying traffic lights, blocking roads, attacking mainlanders, and acting extremely hostile, obviously can't go on. Something had to be done.
    3
  1689. Lol. You can't use the word "freedom" or "freedom of speech" to defend or rationalize illegal actions, you know, actions that people normally are prosecuted for since they breach federal laws. I'm torn on Assange, personally, but these reactions are so one-sided and misleading. These reactions also justifies a bunch of dishonest media tactics that many have complained about for years, including Trump and those who've been censored/ostracized for their political beliefs.
    3
  1690.  @drunkensailor3736  Drastic times calls for drastic measures. I can see why someone like in Duterte is widely supported and embraced in a country such as the Philipphines. Solving corruption, crime, drug-abuse/trade and a volatile economic/societal situation can't be done with lenient and slow action. It requires fierce measures.
    3
  1691. Why did the cops go so easy on the convict?
    3
  1692.  @stevebbuk  Compare Obama to the average DNC socialist today. Huge contrasts. Socialists must be stopped in the US.
    3
  1693. The extremists (or socialliberals in the DNC) in the US are trying to go into the Swedish direction, not realizing the issues in the country and extreme aspects the Sweden has. Crime rates are staggering, welfare system's deteriorating, and many of the socialists/leftists glorifying the nation has got the wrong perception.
    3
  1694. @SHEEPY 14842 European countries don't want war, and would not provoke the UK. Nor a NATO member.
    3
  1695. A summary of the past years: The EU and UK are not in agreement over fishing rights, trade, and the Northern Island situation and are not willing to compromise. A permanent deadlock, leading to a no-deal, or pushing Europe into the UK developed a Norwegian/Swiss relation with the EU in the end. It's the same news being reported on every time.
    3
  1696. I'd see this as a win. Unpredictable secession/militant movement operating via vigilantism in Africa is the last thing that we need, frankly, even if TPLF's comprehensive political stance might be slightly better than Abih Ahmed's socialdemocratic party.

  1697. Every protester should be forcefully placed in a quarantine, immediately.

  1698. For what? Haven't seen Barr do any real wrongdoings.

  1699. How hard can it be to behave properly to avoid coming into contact with the police? Seriously..it's not rocket science.

  1700. To deal with the outbreak? I wish. To legalize abortion, steer the country to the left and normalize decadence? No thanks.
    3
  1701. Nope. That's what any responsible and humane government would do. Freedom doesn't trump safety and good health. That's a selfish stance.
    3
  1702. Floyd was an insane criminal with dangerous intents. The guy was high, resisted arrest, and created his own tragic fate. Nobody else. Not the police. This had nothing to do with racism, oppression, injustice or brutality. The guy wasn't an angel and destroyed my country. And now the officers are receiving hatred and ending up charged for this. Give them some medals for heaven's sake..

  1703. How does he deserve this based on the type of person he is without integrity or judgement?

  1707. 140M babies are born annually. Plenty of babies are born on a daily basis. This is news?

  1708. Indonesia has 130 active volcanoes...wow. Might as well build out artificial islands and abandon the areas close to the volcanoes at that point to ensure the people's safety and a decent air quality, no? Or how does Indonesia usually mitigate these natural disasters?
    3
  1709. Don't make things up. That Asian agreement signed by ~13 Asian countries has been reported on by several Western news organizations the past days. Be quiet or keep your facts straight.

  1711.  @FrantzVissarionovitch  Because the lady with a nice bottom is surrounded by figurative foam, creating a poetically striking situation? Nah, I don't know.

  1712. She'd be listened to across the board if she wasn't an indoctrinated leftist asset, attempting to pander to the socialist parties. Wearing antifa shirts and rejecting the scientists advocation for nuclear power highlights her agenda.

  1713. Discrimination against little chipmunks trying to make a change in this world 😱

  1714. If he had a sensible and sustainable climate policy of subsidizing renewables, electrifying the economy and protecting biodiversity/endangered animals, he'd have perhaps gotten reelected. It's a shame that GOP still hasn't adopted such policies. It's negligent and counterproductive for everyone, in fact. Taking a fierce approach to the coronavirus might've sufficed to get reelected as well. Too late now, sadly.
    3
  1715. Jail those that are undermining the pandemic and lying about vaccines. Not those trying to tackle the pandemic and roll out well-needed vaccination programs. What is wrong with the people in this comment section, wow.
    3
  1716.  @1337Frederick  That is indeed very interesting and does strengthen the argument of doing what it takes to stimulate the market and increase growth/GDP instead of hindering growth by trying to create tax revenue via increased and increased taxes.

  1717.  @roni-yah9342  Not as stupid of those who sympathize with perpetrators and perpetrator-apologists.

  1718. Let's see if this funeral results in the same outcome as Solemani's funeral, a human stampede resulting in 50+ deaths.. Maybe Iran's leadership and public officials has cleaned up their act, slightly, since then.
    3
  1719. Abolish these international organizations or make them stay silent.
    3
  1720. Bolton is the last person who should be treated and praised as a hero. He betrayed his own country. Twisted facts and truth for his own benefit to humiliate the commander in chief. Has throughout his tenure tried to declare war on several countries. Dangerous warhawk
    3
  1721. Basically yes. These provocations may lead to another blossomed conflict and further strained ties between China, the US and the West. Not good. In a worst case scenario WWIII may arise.
    3
  1722. The Gravitas segment is too biased and snarky. I can't listen to her.
    3
  1723. I think FBI is investigating it. Cuomo basically admitted to the nursing home scandal and to the act of for politcal reasons covering up both the scandal but also data about the infection/death rate, which is highly corrupt. He even pushed his employees to cover for him. Oh, how the 'mighty' have fallen.
    3
  1724.  Ned Ludd  Yeah. An Indian vaccine is probably several times as risky and ineffective compared with the Western manufactured ones, as it tends to be. This is a classic example of blind nationalism where you believe that your own country is infallible and superior over every remaining country on earth.
    3
  1725. Democrats and its advocates has a whole bunch of shady ties to many unethical and questionable parts of the world. They've got their claws stuck deep everywhere. So these assertions about Venezuela wouldn't surprise me one bit. Dems are cheaters and exploiters in every way, from voter fraud to letting criminals vote to easing voter requirements for everybody to win. They should be held accountable.
    3
  1726. Stop spamming and go advertise elsewhere. Crypto sucks and will be regulated. Especially if bots keeps on misleading people about it.
    3
  1727. Trump's speech wasn't incitement to violence. It was quite neutral, a speech that he usually delivers, and din't encourage any violence. He has always condemned the use of illegalities, especially for political gains. So why are you buying into that lie? Don't play into the hands of foul media reports and biased leftist actors that have very malicious intentions. You're right in that the enforcement on these platforms is very randomized at times, unfair ,and inconsistent though.
    3
  1728. Ethiopia has a "water minister"? Lol, cool.
    3
  1729. And say no to communism. Being high on such a toxic ideology won't improve your life or result in good decisions.
    3
  1730. Because those Middle Eastern countries are more caring for their population and country's preservation. And since Europe is more generous in their welfare handouts. Oh well..
    3
  1731. Maybe, maybe not. Could be a coincidence. But it's certainly ironic. I remember reading the article about this IMF and World bank donation on Reuters this morning. Laughed so hard. Hundreds of millions dollars were essentially sent to the military, and now the military seized power unconditionally lmao
    3
  1732. A savannah elephant weighs around 6,000 kg. There's 130K elephants left in Botswana. So 780 million kg of elephant mass wanders around in Africa's final elephant stronghold, Botswana. There's around 330K elephants left in the entirety of Africa.

  1734. Close the borders and deport. Don't make the same naive and self-destructive mistake that the swedish populace and politicians did in 2015 and prior.

  1735. They've got impunity and free reign to do whatever they like. The media won't even pick up their atrocious acts.

  1736. Sexist to assume that men can't advocate for what's right for women and the society. Do better, WION.

  1737. Say what you want about China, these are some undisputed good news.
    3
  1738. The Islamic world does generally support actions against terrorism, and don't want to provoke their best friend China. That's why it's so quiet.
    3
  1739. Why does such a large portion of people lack self-control? So many of these shootings and situations of melee is created by some stupid verbal dispute or guideline that isn't followed. Could've easily been avoided if the people involved, the shooter, were stable.
    3
  1740. Ah, a mandarin speaker. Clever.
    3
  1741. She's in many ways ruined Europe and Germany by her 'open tolerance' and blind acceptance of just about any idea (besides effective & defensible ones) and almost every group of people without prioritizing Europe's or Germans interests. Selling out the country to prioritize the world at the expense of one's population, in other words.
    3
  1742.  @Yaybaybae  50% of Afghans supported the Taliban in 2009, most sympathize with the Taliban's beliefs, and the country is financially carried by USA's and the rich world's help. Why should they take in migrants, friend?
    3
  1743. The obsession in mass producing and mindlessly consuming many of these superficial products greatly adds to destructive climate change. People's behavior has to change, regulations has to be implemented, and many societies has to change within its fundamental core.
    3
  1744. Sending my well wishes to Switzerland and the Swiss citizens. Hope you get past this and manage to eliminate Islamic terrorism on European soil. This can't go on. Switzerland is luckily a very strong country that tends to swiftly handle injustices and societal flaws.
    3
  1745. Sexual education, in what way? What's Sangay Choden's stance on abortion? Is she teaching children, women and the future generation from a civilized conservative perspective or more of a progressive approach as see in the feminist West? Would be all interesting questions to know the answer to. Anyway, congratulations Sangay Choden!
    3
  1746. Doubt it. Supporting Taiwan is a bipartisan issue in Congress and between the parties. Biden will probably continue Trump's way of handling diplomatic relations with Taiwan. I'm sure Biden will act weaker on China though. China will gain advantages and manage to exploit the market and the US by Biden's more casual, lenient and neutral approach. That's why China wanted Biden to win, after all.
    3
  1747.  @martytube821  Yep. Immigration has always and will always solely benefit the Democratic party and bloodthirsty unprincipled capitalists trying to make a quick buck. All other implications, national security concerns, shifts in the political/cultural scene and the increased welfare dependency is always brushed over.
    3
  1748. Democrats will benefit by this. Americans and Americas future won't. And this also signals that some people are above the law. Biden is making his own manufactured crisis worst day by day. Congratulations.
    3
  1749. Mexico are almost as obese per capita as the USA. Several arab states are more obese than USA. That's something that often is forgotten in the debate.
    3
  1750. Nothing Trump does will ever decrease his public support. He knows this. The man can literally shoot some randomers in the streets, as he've said, and his support will remain intact. When this nation inevitably goes downhill under a democrat Biden administration, Trump could use that to gather more sympathy and get another chance at running for office 2024.
    3
  1751. USA has in some states locked down more than many EU countries. And what's wrong with lockdowns? Do you seriously not realize why that is appropriate now? We don't want you to travel here now anyway.

  1752. I found it interesting. A little special news edition.

  1753. Is the Myanmar army communists? I don't think so.

  1754. Looks like an animal that you could create fur clothing by, without hurting them. Like a sheep. Without relying on slaughtering minks. I assume that industry would be forbidden for now though considering that the bison is endangered.
    3
  1755. "Mass allergic reactions" lmao. 2 side-effects experienced by individuals with difficult underlying allergies isn't "mass allergic reactions". Those with allergies are encouraged to not take this vaccine, and the few affected are monitoring by health bodies. The "idiots" are not those rolling out a mostly safe and effective vaccination program, it's those speaking against it by lies, selfish inclinations, and conspiracies. The alternative to vaccines is mass death. Choose wisely. Or, optimally, nobody should be able to choose. It ought to be mandatory for fairness and health reasons.
    3
  1756. Remember: Those that shamed, humiliated, attacked, hurt, and tried to abolish the police last year, are NOW pretending to "care" about the police, because right-wingers clashed with them for one day. Such a joke.
    3
  1757. China has control over all its domestic companies and its CEOs, they can push them to silence, jail them or execute them if seen appropriate. I doubt they'd execute or remove one of the most influential businessmen in the country who've placed China's image on the map. He's probably just taking a step back due to CCP pressure, the pandemic's effects or maybe for other reasons.
    3
  1758. Japan is quite traditionalist and values the nuclear family, so it is quite surprising. But they've got some weird cultural elements, (lolis/tentacles and such), so you can see why some japanese citizens may have problems with the girls, or boys.
    3
  1759. Banning travel from China wouldn't have been enough, but yes, WHO should responded faster and been more cautious. Many countries would've benefitted from that. We know that WHO has very little credibility though. They can't really be trusted, sadly.

  1760. 🤣😂
    3
  1761. 2 days left. Jokes aside, the UK will probably not change that much after the departure. Torries and Labor's values are in line with EU's, in many ways. So unless a swift turn is taken financially by drastically improved trade agreements, I don't think much will change. Besides perhaps lower levels of migration.
    3
  1762. Why isn't strict action being taken? Why is the Indian police so weak to the point where they're chased by farmers' tractors?
    3
  1763. Veganism isn't as nutritional or tasty, unfortunately. Abandoning meat and spending extra time to produce/cook disgusting food isn't very attractive. So most people prefer to uphold their habits. But that doesn't mean that security and good safety standards shouldn't be strengthened.

  1764. 1:45 are these witch looking men trying to scare people to death? jeez!

  1765. He's also providing millions of dollars to foreign abortion clinics. He's not just ruining America. It's spreading outside. And the man has also stopped deportations of illegal actors, and increased the number of migrant admissions to the country from ~15,000 annually to ~125,000. The future isn't looking great.
    3
  1766. Are the oil producing nations investing in the companies that extracts and uses lithium metal? Considering that this may be the future, that'd be a brilliant twist. Oil-producing nations sees that oil is about to deplete, and shifts to the new extremely profitable market of battery production.
    3
  1767. US, Canada and UK basically owns all the vaccines at the moment. Their supply exceeds their own demand several times, ironically enough. So of course they won't need Astra.
    3
  1768. Isn't it pretty telling that Apple claims that they can't unlock their own manufactured phones, even in criminal investigations on a federal level, but people keep on finding loopholes within the phone and its program to hijack users phones, spy, monitor steps and receive information?
    3
  1769. Using the coronavirus as a tool against one's opposition is a deadly and ineffective tactic...because it'll spread to many innocent people and maybe the regime itself. And it isn't deadly enough.
    3
  1770. Yup. Trying to normalize a tacky culture that nobody cares about in the midst of a crisis is just abominable.
    3
  1771. If you want to bring about serious change, never march with the LG-community. No authority or individual will take it seriously and will start supporting the army instead. The indecent values and hippie-culture that it brings isn't preferrable, least said.
    3
  1772.  @stuartsiglain3972  hmm...wonder why..
    3
  1773. Agreed. Goes to show how toxic the mob truly can be. That nobody ever will be safe from the mob, unless it's decisively and permanently put in check. Trump has done nothing here, yet the country decided to go after him through prosecution, impeachment, cutting ties, and harassing him. When actual riots by blm occurred the entire summer, back when we saw many public incitements, nothing occurred. Nobody even blinked.
    3
  1774. The tolerant religion. The globe should step up their attempts of preventing radicalization, indoctrination and teachings that leads to the barbaric convictions that we see in these violent parts of the world. We'll all be doomed otherwise...

  1775. Stopping Ankara's imperialism and self-serving destabilization, good. Endless exploitation, abuse and seizing property that belongs to others is unacceptable. Step down, Turkey

  1776. Has Xi Jinping taken it?
    3
  1777. It sounds as if the report is pronouncing the word "conservative" with the phrase "kon cer va-tive". For those unaware of the word, it'd be impossible to grasp what she's saying. The Indian accent isn't great when it comes to speaking english. Like nails scraping a chalkboard.

  1778. Make america great again, LET'S GOOOOOO
    3
  1779. Plants/trees traps some CO2, but the rate at which humans are releasing CO2 is too high for all the plants to absorb enough, which is why the global temperatures are warming and the climate changing itself. Tree planting is a good step in countering the emissions/temperature rise, but not enough.

  1784. What does this have to do with the video
    3
  1785.  @therose6627  Just like how screaming racism at every person that you perceive as racist is normal to you (people whom usually aren't racist, but are expressing rational contentions regarding political issues), it's normal for these girls to look down upon or be skeptical towards people from different races. Girly trash talking behind people's back and derogatory mindsets are annoying though. Conceited smugness and all of that. But that's an issue that we see everywhere. Not to mention harassment.
    3
  1786. Yep. Iran's defense system and revolutionary guards are a joke. They can't take responsibility, and blames every blunder on foreign forces and conspiratorial scapegoats. Blinded by superstitious religion.
    3
  1787. Not to defend China, but Western countries tends to ban Chinese news reporting and jouranlists, which leads to a counterresponse by China. Not the other way around.
    3
  1788. In this cases, if you've proven that the person supported and were involved in the most brutal attack imaginable against innocent people, the Saudi Arabian, Vietnamese, & Singaporean approach of zero tolerance deterrence and punishment should be imposed. Anything else isn't justice.
    3
  1789. Have you noticed that foreign interference and election irregularities is of no concern by democrats right now? Even though they decried interference every single day for 4 years, accused Trump for collusion and tried to remove him. I despise that level of partisan bias. It ruins this country.
    3
  1790. While I may not agree with Putin's personal code of ethics and moral compass, making sure that the internet is clean and free from illegalities is something that we definitely need. Maintaining civility, legal behavior, removing insurrection plans and adhering so some type of etiquette is a good idea.
    3
  1791. Shouldn't Indians be happy that they're fighting against political islam by force? Europe are at some point going to have to do the same, before it's too late.
    3
  1792. Banning proven conspiracy theories isn't a problem. Banning world leaders and people with legitimate views IS a huge problem.
    3
  1793. Residents living in these volatile areas susceptible to landslides or natural cataclysms should be evacuated, or the area should be secured by barriers/stable buildings/alarms that can prevent risks for its people. Norway tends to value safety very high, so it's a bit strange that it hasn't been done sooner.
    3
  1794. Hong Kong was already free, yet the rioters screamed and shouted either way...and made it unfree. Well, it is still very free if you behave and adhere to the laws. So I don't see why people are complaining here.
    3
  1795. The new oil that'll result in less noise on the roads, cleaner emissions, and a sustainable future where biodiversity is intact, the air quality increased, and with less need to focus on the issue of climate change. The countries with lithium reserves are about to cash in.
    3
  1796. The mutations are kicking in strong.

  1797. Why not just wear a mask and show some concern and empathy for your fellow countrymen instead of trying to win a game of russian roulette by downplaying or responding indifferently to the pandemic?
    3
  1798.  @Zer0nite  Nope. He's always stood for law & order and peace. Getting all the facts on the stable and verbally/figuratively fighting his opposition in a staunch manner isn't incitement to violence. Looking for incitement to violence? Look at every BLM and Antifa supporter. Why aren't they suspended and placed in jail? Why is every media channel, journalist and politician supportive of those terrorists? I think we know why.
    3
  1799. The security app used to infiltrate these corporations and agencies were focused on network protection, opposing security breaches, and giving out advice to make one's agency more secure. The tragic irony in that can't be understated.
    3
  1800. Correct. Breaking down traditional gender roles and the expected family structures, a structure that works fine, would be disintegration.
    3
  1801.  @SurajsT-by9es  Yeah, I doubt China care about Indian's religious or worldviews. The Chinese troops are told to take over territory and beat any opponents in their way, and that's it. "Martyrdom" never sounds good either. It's a word used by many religious terrorists and extremists on the side of Islam.
    3
  1802. Because it's catchy and keeps people interested. I like it.
    3
  1803. EU lawmakers: "Let's stop a Russia-EU project that keeps Russia in check because we want to protect a quite unpopular civic nationalist (an ideology that we've worked against for decades) from Russia". I think Russia will be able to see through this bluff and ignore any calls to make concessions.

  1804. Who would win? Egg vs. militarized junta with 370,000 troops.

  1805. When will you realize that millions have died from the pandemic in the past year? That tens of millions has fallen sick? That corporations are bleeding due to inevitably changed demand and a lack of employees standing by? Governments are doing what's needed to sail through this storm with as little damage inflicted as possible. Show some respect instead of making things up.
    3
  1806. I've never heard any complaints about the structure, dynamic and competence seen in the firefighter sector. Why would the sector benefit by attracting females?

  1808. Have these vaccines been given the seal of approval in every religious country yet?
    3
  1809.  @mcclarinfulando4439  No. I despise criminals who disrespect my fellow citizens and country. That people with a certain background commits a disproportionate amount of crime isn't what I base my judgement on.
    3
  1810. Every Europe country should follow along France and close their borders to this politically extreme religion.
    3
  1811. So glad that Soviet collapsed. Such a stain on humanity.
    3
  1812.  @DK-rh5sf  Maybe in Europe or USA. Feminism isn't really a big thing in South Korea or Japan. The declining population rate and aging population has been an issue for quite some time, unrelated to leftist ideology.
    3
  1813. Controversial or not, this is how you stamp out terrorism and assimilate problematic groups. Northern Europe such as Swedistan or humiliated Germany, should take notice.

  1814. Hopefully it works out tomorrow then. Millions of dollars are lost and shortages are increasing by every passing day that the canal is blocked. If it goes on for too long, cutting off a part of the cargo ship might even be cheaper than letting it block the path.
    3
  1815. That's interesting. It'd be incredibly strong cost cutting measures if it actually works. Millions of jobs would be lost, but probably diverted to other sectors through investment made by the cash saved.

  1816. Don't lie now. Lockdowns can be a temporary answer to get control of the virus. It has worked in many parts of the world, and is supported by science. The economy will also perform better if you can assert control over the outbreak and open up ASAP, just like NZ, Taiwan, China, and others. But even if you were right, why is the economic argument even relevant when this is about saving lives? Is the economy more important than a country's citizens?
    3
  1817. Federal authorities once again indicating that they are unwilling to serve justice. That they're fine with unconstitutional action to go after contentious people who aren't accused for- nor convicted of anything. Pathetic.
    3
  1818. I can see why Thai citizens are calling for the useless and uncivilized Thai monarchy that has lost its purpose, to be brought down. The country doesn't benefit by the monarchy, and the main monarchs are behaving like foul and sleazy hippies, desecrating the country's image.

  1820. Grasp all, lose all. This is a prime example of that. Placing forward ultimatums and forcing your perceived allies to take a controversial position may hurt you more than abstaining from placing forward the ultimatum would've in the first place.

  1821.  @sc1450  That never happens, so no.

  1822. A family with one mother and one father tends to have compatible values and the type of dynamic that children needs throughout an upbringing. It's crucial. Such structures tends to be much more healthier, free from abuse, and safe for the child. So why wouldn't you support a ban on outlier elements?

  1823. Nah..he released classified info about US authorities, how they operate, and he turned americans against surveillance. A liberal traitor giving leverage to our enemies shouldn't be pardoned.

  1824. The virus, closedowns and her business ending up impacted may've sadly pushed her over the edge. But to say that the lockdowns killed her is miseadling journalistic editorialism. Quite irresponsible.

  1825. Serious patriots out there. Good for them. Irregularities must be investigated. The fact that Dems uses illegals and criminals to win election must be pointed out. Democrats cannot win legitimately, and that should never be forgotten.

  1826. The audacity by Iran to blame Saudi Arabia for the famine in Yemen when Iran are funding the insurgent groups that has caused unrest, chaos and misery in the country. Disgraceful.
    3
  1827. Iran has a real difficulty in executing diplomatic relations properly. They think everyone's a one-way street where you can dictate everything on your own. That actions don't have consequences. That the world will put up with their lying statements and hypocrisy. A country willing to finance rebels and militants in the region shouldn't have nuclear weapons.
    3
  1828. Pelosi incited violence earlier this year by dismissing statue vandalism and removals. "People are gonna do what people are gonna do" or something alone those lines, is what she said after receiving a question of what she thought of the rioting and illegal statue removals. Where's the prosecution against her?
    3
  1829. Everybody does. Good that they're preparing to do something about future deficits. We wouldn't want an impoverished Saudi nation full of radicalized citizens with a huge military arsenal, right?
    3
  1830. They do. But WION and Western media may not talk about it as frequently, because most visits are from countries that may not be seen as relevant to India or the West. China is South America's largest trading partner. China has funded plenty of infrastructure projects in that part of the world, and in Africa/Asia, spreading their influence. China has several close trading/diplomatic partners in Asia. Close cooperation.

  1831. They got tired of the deadlocked conflict and waste of life I bet. Good on them. Work, act, and make a change. The civil war must end.
    3
  1832. For now, pretty much. Apart from Hungary, Poland, Switzerland, Austria, and some others. Macron should definitely receive support for this legislation of strengthening the protections for our beloved and well-needed police force. And for preventing acts of barbarism on France's soil (threats, incitements to violence against the police, and political Islam).

  1833. Less crime, less rebellious nonsense and an increase of needed respect for our authorities? Good.

  1837.  @389vtweron...  5 comments in and nobody has managed to answer your question. How typical. Navalny has been in the crosshairs of the Russian state for quite some time. He's seen as an annoyance, and represents the opposition of the country. That worries Putin and the authorities. It's believed that Navalny was poisoned by the Russian state a few months ago. Now, he's being accused of violating parole rules because of not attending a meeting that he couldn't attend because he was in a coma. The West, EU and USA in particular, are very critical of the arrest and punishments of Navalny and the associated protesters that we've seen the past weeks.

  1838.  @censorshipleadstothenwo1237  Why is gun control laws and a lower supply guns correlated with less gun crime and shootings in most of the world? Why is it stupid to "blame the guns" with this in mind?

  1839.  @imran4006  Diplomacy is usually handled like business deals are handled. Through sometimes cutthroat discussions, by making concessions/demands, giving & taking and doing what it takes to protect one's interest. I don't see a big deal in Trump's offer here. Just funny and unprecedented. Trump was after all the only US president that nearly solved the North Korea nuclear and militarization issue.

  1840. "Lack of consent" Being a refugee and being treated luxuriously as a guest in the new country that you're freely visiting isn't a right. Bangladesh and Myanmar can do whatever they wish.

  1842. Rejoining the Paris climate accord is one of the few good things that the Biden administration will do. Trump should've shaped more of a climate friendly policy, perhaps he'd have attracted many to his cause by that.

  1847. 2020, a horribly dystopian year where a global outbreak occurred. 2021, the year where this outbreak is mitigated and hopefully vaccinated away.
    3
  1848. Say what you want about the Israeli PM, Mike Pence, and some US ex-presidents, but this is what a responsible and honest leader does. Take the vaccine, encourage its citizens to follow suit, and build up trust and in the end a herd immunity. Shut down the conspiracy theorists.
    3
  1849. Which is why it should be mandatory 🙏
    3
  1850. I don't think I should have to tell why it's big news that the face of a nation decides to in front of live television be the first person to be vaccinated with a recently approved vaccine used against a historically dangerous pandemic. As for your conspiracies, there's no reason to lie or to not take the vaccine. Especially as a leadership. And the burden of proof is on you, to showcase that the vaccine isn't the vaccine that the public are presuming. Don't be so unfairly paranoid unless you've got evidence, which you don't.

  1852. Mexico's authorities are preparing for the open migration policy that Biden will impose. The countries bordering to the USA will take advantage of this and send tens of thousands of poor residents up to the USA. It'll be devastating and the individuals should immediately be deported by USA's authorities, but we'll see a policy that downsizes american security and jeopardizes the welfare state/political scene instead.
    3
  1853. This might either provoke Israel's antagonists to declare war/exacerbate the IP-conflict, or lay the groundwork for established peace in the Middle East. You never how how the Middle East develop and responds, it's totally unpredictable, so we'll see in due time.
    3
  1854. Alcohol is never an essential item. It's literal poison and destroys a country's moral fabric, its health, one's own organs and limits people's capacity to think straight. What a horrible message by the health authorities and government to send out during a health crisis. Typical Western values.

  1855. "Fly, you fools"

  1856. Cryptocurrency should be banned or heavily restricted. It's used to purchase illegal services on shady internet websites, on the dark web, etc. It's propped up by the financially illiterate and the currency is extracted through questionable ways. Old traditional ways of investing, retrieving and storing money are better alternatives in almost every way.
    3
  1857. The death and transmission rate is a FACT that you can't reject. You may personally be selfish and advocate against the measures that blocks the spread, but that doesn't change reality that the country and world is experiencing, an alarming rate of the virus affecting people.

  1858. How does a bus driver "lose control"? Was he drunk, inexperienced, or did he slide on the road by accident? Tragic that so many had to die by this.
    3
  1859. EU is a costly union to stay in, where the countries who have mismanaged their economies constantly gets bailed out and assisted without any real conditions of having to improve. EU has turned very political lately and forced countries to adopt their socialliberal/leftist values, as well. Migration quotas is incoming. Breaking down the traditional nuclear family is forced upon its members. So Brexit may be a breaking point for the EU, leading to its dissolution in the end. Or maybe EU's core principles will be upheld by the relationship that Switzerland and Norway has with the union, in trade, peace, and security cooperation.
    3
  1860. That is true. Especially military cooperation. NATO was actually strengthened as well. Many people do not know this. One of the main critiques against Trump was that he damaged the relations with our allies, which is an oversimplification and hyperbolic statement that many bought into. Although the trade wars with EU and China wasn't that great. Still, he managed to create the most booming economy in decades even though the trade war were fully ongoing.

  1861. "Let's go from importing ~12,000 migrants to 150,000, during a pandemic, during a national security crisis, and during a crisis of domestic division". What a joke

  1862. He said that his sister has taken it.

  1863. Politically incorrect politicians speaking with clarity > Subtle PC politicians with an unclear underlying agenda. Kind of strange how the media tends to prefer the latter choice just because these politicians language is a little more clean and because their policies are the least controversial.

  1864. Sounds like you should make your way to the therapist and re-evaluate yourself.

  1865. Jill Biden's a cutiepie. But did she stop improperly referring to herself as a "doctor" when she's working as a teacher? Or is that term normal in the US academic world? Seems disputed.

  1866. Maybe because hundreds of thousands people have died and because it's probable that you get very sick if you contract the virus. It's 10x as worse than the influenza. But when you're dismissive, cynical and egoistic, you don't look at these stats, you instead issue coldhearted comments like this.
    3
  1867. If freedom of speech and media neutrality existed in the Western world, the Left would literally cease to exist. The left is dependent on unfairly targeting and restricting their opposition. Any corporation, tech giant, platform and journalist that perpetuates this unethical conduct should be sanctioned severely for their immoralities. Including Twitter/FB. Including Reddit. YouTube.
    3
  1868. God often fails and won't be able to be used to convince the atheist and agnostic world which you need to convince if you want to put pressure on the Myanmar military. It looks bleak for the Myanmar people. Challenging the military which are supported by China and other global powers, is close to an impossibility.

  1869.  @forefatherofmankind3305  True. War crimes and the destruction of a country's/people's cultural heritage is commonplace in that part of the world.

  1870. Biden is essentially proposing the policy stance that Trump has enforced since the pandemic's inception. Shutdowns to receive absolute control over the virus may be needed. Oh well. At least Biden is clear here.

  1871. Not by the state. There's many innocent people that end up beaten, raped and kidnapped in India though. It's a big epidemic, that should be rooted out by force.

  1873. Preserve nature and biodiversity or create economic opportunity, housing and infrastructure? That's the dilemma. Most poor nations choose the latter.

  1874. Using the coup to stifle all dissent and quash all uncomfortable opponents. Clever, but scary.
    3
  1875. No, it isn't "split". Why did you spout that blatant lie without backing it up? Jesus... All data shows that vaccines works. That lockdowns are effective. That mask mandates limits the spread of a virus. There's no split consensus on this, unless you're willing to distort evidence or use outlier studies to falsely showcase it as representative.

  1876. 1:30, here comes the uninterrupted rap god
    3
  1877. The culture is questionable though. Many drunks, violent/angry people and they support a leader that destabilizes the West. A leader that seemingly poisons opponents, is indirectly responsible for failure and collapse in infrastructure, oil/chemical leaks, a leader that support communist nations.

  1878. To perform a job task. For tourist reasons. Diplomacy. News coverage. Visiting on the premise that you'll be safe from Chinese authorities.

  1879. Boxing is a primitive sport that glorifies violence and leads to permanent brain injuries and physical deterioration. Especially for the more fragile individuals, such as young girls and women. Who thought that this was appropriate?

  1881. We're in a damn pandemic. Who cares what religious groups superstitiously thinks about the practises needed to prevent the virus from spreading? Apparently too many.

  1882. Or, make sure that plastic products can be recycled and reused instead of littered. Every local community should be able to throw away used items at a storage facility. Not doing so should result in ramifications.

  1883. $144b deficit in december 2020 vs. $14b deficit in december 2019. Insane discrepancy. But not surprising after the economic downturn during this crisis.

  1884. Maybe illegal actors will be pushed back from Europe to a larger degree now. Strengthening the institutions of deportation, & establishing national safety.

  1885. All harassment and offensive behavior should be countered at workplaces and in society. Both genders are struck by it. Making it into a man. vs women issue won't unify people into tackling it.

  1886. Millions of swedes has shown no empathy or concern for the rest of the country throughout this pandemic. People have partied, gathered in large groups, went to clubs, bars, held huge birthday/student parties, defied recommendations, and supported an open strategy which implies almost no restrictions, no curfews, no quarantines, no virus tracking, and no precautionary measures. So please tell me why I should sacrifice myself for such an indifferent group of people. A group of people that couldn't care less if half the country died, as long as they could carry on living selfishly. All motivation is depleted in this regard. I'd only take the vaccine if it's approved and if it's mandatory, equal for everybody. Don't take the vaccine? Get fined. Jailed. Removed. Such an approach would never occur in my Sweden though.

  1887. The current ruling party that is destined to win, GERB, practises the following political ideology: Conservatism Populism Pro-Europeanism Political position Centre-right to right-wing Sounds like an alright direction to take.

  1891. Moral of the story; don't build unprotected nuclear reactors close to shores prone to stormy weather, tsunamis and natural disasters. Nuclear power wouldn't be as risky if every country adhered to that guideline.

  1892. Executions are normal. Just letting someone go in a communist country is an action out of the ordinary ;)
    3
  1893. Kind of unrelated, but while we're on the topic of Germany, did you hear Merkel's view on the topic of tech censorship? It's more promising than I thought. She does not believe that these tech CEOs should hold the power to censor private users on their platforms, but rather that a country's judicial system should step in and prosecute wrongdoing if appropriate. That's how you defend freedom of speech and prevent power abuse.

  1897. Being brown or black doesn't excuse racism. Claiming that people of other races would be treated more leniently is not only a racist theory, it's false. I don't know what this woman said, but her response seems to have many holes in them.

  1900.  @itachi1448  This protest has nothing to do with financial struggles. And the guy is just expressing an assertion, as in "protests are frequent all over the world", he's not asking why it is happening nor rejecting the protests. So calm down.

  1904. Macron is a strong leader doing what it takes to protect his country even if harsh actions or uncomfortable actions is required. Say what you want about his political platform, but I support Macon's unconditional willingness to shield his country in this way. I wish we could have such a leader here in Sweden.

  1909. I imagine this will be Boeing's final chance to prove that they're capable of flying safely and without any irregularities. They've lost $20B the past 2 years and had their reputation crushed. CEO's and executives has been replaced. The company is bleeding. And on top of that, they're going back to a bleeding industry. Will be fascinating to see what's happening next. Europe and FAA has approved their ability to start flying again, maybe they'll get back to business as if nothing has happened. We'll see.
    3
  1910. The people without proof screaming "systematic racism" are the same type of people, aka progressives, leftists and tolerant preachers of the West, that are willing to open up their own borders so many of these militants, extremists, and lowly educated individuals with different cultural values, can spread their values and behavior to every part of the world.
    3
  1911. There's no chance that Boeing is unsafe now after all of these tests, improvements in education, adjustments to MCAS, and restructuring of the management team. $20B has been lost the past 2 years, and the corporation is now going back to a bleeding industry. Another blunder/crash will be the end of this manufacturing company..

  1912. The people are responsible for the fate of their own country. The rich world has aided and maintained the survival of Afghanistan for decades (not the invasion, by foreign aid). We can't do much more. We can't take in every Afghan (who believes in Sharia law) to our countries.
    3
  1913. It has to be remembered that while children may not be that impacted the contracting the virus, they may be virus carriers and transmit the virus to other people on a scale that may exacerbate the pandemic. This was indicated by some studies, and has been underestimated in many countries.

  1914. Do Israelis support immediate peace or continued annexation and establishment of settlements?
    3
  1915. It's reported that a couple of Eritrean (or maybe Ethiopian) forces shot at the UN peacekeeping forces, because the UN forces interfered, according to the parties involved in the war. Tough, but hilarious at the same time. We do know that Eritrea are involved. Leaked conversations, interviews and satelite images showcases this.

  1920. An uneducated populace being deceived and swindled by politicians is a dangerous combo seen throughout the world. History easily repeats itself and ineffective sound-good-policies gets support. Hopefully Peru manages to stay afloat even though the people responded to a bad situation by voting a socialist leaning candidate into power.
    3
  1921.  @m1k4t0r15  I think you have to accept the fact that democracy don't always grant you the desired results. America voted for a quasi-strongman leader who'd put America and its people first by closing the borders, improving the economy and encouraging (for the most part) civilized and law-abiding behavior. That's precisely what they got. Trump has his flaws and should've gone a lot further on many issues, but he did what many of his supporters wished for, contrary to what his critics and the media suggested.

  1925. Corruption is hard to root out. A change in leadership would benefit the people. I doubt a new leader would be as illiterate as Lukasjenko when it comes to dealing with viruses. Suggesting sauna visits, drinking, driving tractors and playing hockey to counter a virus outbreak may be one of the most incompetent policy proposals i've ever hard. Lukasjenko does also have ties to Communist movements and ideas, which has impacted the economy and opportunities in the country, in a negative direction. I can see why people are angry.

It instead has other benefits/characteristics that attracts investors and rich billionaires even if they have to pay taxes, such as high standards of living, a culture that certain people like, relative safety and a powerful position on the global stage. The more poorer and unknown countries has to attract elsehow, such as by becoming a tax haven.

  1930. Germany is one of the powerful states in the world, controlling most trade of exports/imports in Europe. It's almost as if the empire got built, discretely and in a different fashion.

  1931. The remnants of Nazi Germany seems to still prevail. Dissidents being discredited and penalized by the state for doing basic investigative work. Shady that even Singapore didn't see any red flags. They're supposed to be one of the more knowledgeable and powerful financial centers in the world.

  1935. @sneksnekitsasnek Many of Mexico's residents are complacent and desensitized to everything happening in the country. Drugs are being legalized. Obesity is a huge health concerns. Illegal cartels and murderers controls the government. The government is led by a left-wing leader who believes you can strangle the gangs with tolerant hugs instead of bullets. A complete joke is what it is. Some corruption in the government or an incompetent minister showing their true colors is the least of concern to these residents. But yes, it's strange how nonchalant and passive these people are when their country is in flames.

  1939. I can see why the people and the Filipino government are outraged over these activists and those representing these activists part of communist movements or human right movements trying to prevent Duterte's government from fighting against drug abuse and illegal drug trade. But do you really have to murder them or allow that to happen? Debatable.

  1942. Not just during the pandemic. They caused havoc, disorder and destruction for a bad cause. Even though the extradition bill had been withdrawn. They tried to release violent criminals. Undermine due process. Destroy the police and their image. Had laughably ridiculous demands. No one can take that seriously. And in the end, the extradition bill had to be reimplemented, 10x as strong as the initial one planned. The rioters couldn't have handled this worse. They shot themselves in the foot.

  1943. Evo Morales should be locked up. He tried to defy the referendum that opposed his plans to extend the presidential mandate. He exploited Bolivia's supreme court to circumvent the will of the people. His policies negatively impacted the country, as leftists are known for. The election during his recent tenure resulted in irregularities and provable accusations of electoral fraud, which resulted in him being driven out from the country. But socialists and the indoctrinated blindly supporters this liar.

  1944.  @pm6613  Imagine thinking that people aren't dying in the most documented and destructive pandemic in modern times. Imagine believing that your flawed fabrication of a worldview are anywhere close to the "truth". Why did we close down the mental asylums. Sigh.
    3
  1945.  @christmas222  That was a description of you since you're denying the existence of a pandemic and the millions that have died throughout it. Horrible thing to do of you.
    3
  1946. No need to bring national division into this. If the plane manufacturing company or airline kept on making mistakes in their job to secure that the planes are safe to fly, the company responsible would be criticized severely and regulated for it. That's what is happening to Boeing in the USA the past years. The company has lost billions and their planes grounded, up until recently. Similar action is taken now.

  1947. Nothing funny about it
    3
  1948. Don't expect anything from Musk. He's for the most part got his self-serving and business interest in mind. ;)
    3
  1949. TPLF has participated in Ethiopia's political scene and rules parts of the country, up until Abiy Ahmed decided to centralize the country and abolish these organizations. That may be why the movement has such a strong foothold in the country. It's established. Armed. Supported by many. The main mistake that TPLF did? Attacking Ethiopian governmental forces and its military.
    3
  1950. Yep. It's often forgotten that legislation and policy seen as unusual or a little bit controversially far-reaching by Western standards, are usually the norm and entirely supported by the people in these countries. I'm not sure about this law, but I wouldn't be surprising if it's very popular to stifle and root out terrorism. The people vastly support Duterte's war on drugs, after all.

  1951. " While they do pass one another every 20 years as they circle the sun, Jupiter and Saturn have not been this closely aligned in the night sky for centuries."
    3
  1952. Excessive consumption and a lack of policies that protects the nature, biodiversity and the climate is the problem. The damage to the economy can occur in a communist state trying to industrialize and mass produce certain products so the workers can stay alive, or in an unregulated capitalist system where the profit motive takes precedence with CEOs and corporate lobbyists controls the state. We need a balance. An effective capitalist framework with regulations that protects the people, the environment, and that enables a good welfare system.
    3
  1953. Why did the media not report on the harassment and threats against the police and right-wingers earlier this year? The anti-cop hatred that people overtly spewed? I can't take this seriously when people pretend to care about one societal wrongdoing while ignoring other equally or even more blown up wrongdoings.
    3
  1954. ​@Aedin Ridmash What sort of response is that? Are you 3? Religious teaching and superstitious books that don't teach basic scientific, objective and factual concepts for the future generations is a bad thing. It's common in these religiously dominated countries such as Pakistan. I don't know if that was the case here, but it should either way be discouraged if you want to create a knowledge-based and smart population.
    3
  1955. It's 10x worse than the flu. Thousands are dying daily across the world, people are falling sick leading to a lowered workforce and corporations having to shut. The people trivializing what's happening are either coldhearted egoists, ill-informed or living under a rock. Re-evaluate on that front.
    3
  1956. China has taken illegal claims in the South China Sea, the Atlantic, and tries to expand their land/territory ownership in a militant manner. In a destabilizing manner. That's not just protecting "one's own country and interests".
    3
  1957. Law & order and threats to China's stability isn't occurring from Taiwan's side. So apart from stopping the provocations, US/foreign influence and expanding China's influence, taking over Taiwan isn't as important or hurried.
    3
  1958. The Philipphine authorities recently killed off some leaders of the terror designated group known as Abu Sayyaf, infamous for kidnappings and many crimes. There's many separatists and wrongdoers in the impoverished and quite unstable country of the Philipphines. So I can see why the government has to step in harsh. We know how common it is for people to resist arrest and avoid directives by the police, leading to violent encounters. I presume that was the cases with these activists as well. But we don't know for sure.
    3
  1959. A threat to the world?
    3
  1960. Hazing needs to be wiped out. It's a problem in the USA, in Sweden, in Russia, and in many other militaries around the world. Still, in the 21st century. You can tech values of dignity, strength, good manners, respect and professionalism WITHOUT bullying, hurting and screaming at recruits at every perceived misstep just to mess with them and make them feel bad. We need to do better.

  1961. Watch out for all the bots and astroturfing shills that inevitably will use this comment section to prop up Bitcoin to try and inflate its value and belittle all the risks.
    2
  1962. Enablers of these inhumane ideologies, convictions and the inevitable bloodbath that it causes should never see the light of day again. Anything else is a disgrace to humanity and a slap in the face to every victim of this monster.
    2
  1963. Why are they stomping on- and disrespecting the Pinochet era? Chile doesn't need a new constitution.
    2
  1964. Nah, foreign aid will continue. US troops on the ground doesn't benefit the Afghan economy lol
    2
  1965. US called out China's intellectual property theft, thieving activities on the internet, spying, etc. That's of everybody's concern. But yes, USA should be silent when it comes to how China wants to handle problems of radicalization at home or in Hong Kong.
    2
  1966. The developed world has tried to change China's way of going about things for decades. The centralization and autocratic vein in the country has only grown stronger. China won't ever back down, it seems, and neither will presumably USA.
    2
  1967.  @NemoCapt001  Well said. Too much populism and easy solutions to difficult problems in these comment sections at times. Not enough room to think about the consequences. I appreciate the balance.
    2
  1968. For heaven's sake...this is probably about to get worse when the US leave and Taliban potentially starts getting a foothold in the country. Unless decisive oversight and scrutiny along with anti-terror campaign is upheld, and increased.
    2
  1969. "The government is giving me a vaccine for free, therefore I'll have to pay or do a favor in the future". What sort of logic is that? Isn't the vaccine also provided by the safe and advanced West in the first place? This is why vaccines should be obligatory, when the population denies good health and spreads fake news on the matter.
    2
  1970. Has the military been politicized by the state the past decades in Brazil to the same degree that we're seeing today though?
    2
  1971. Free movement when you're dealing with flawed humanity is a deadly concept that only utopia advocates believes in. Crime, smuggling, illicit activities, floods of unqualified/shady entities and risky ideologies would proliferate all over the world if open borders prevailed. Not to mention the increase in transmission during a pandemic.
    2
  1972. Historically, not being selfish would've resulted in mass death of humanity if we prioritized the welfare of animals over our own survival. But these dayswith the high standards of living and excessive wealth that many have, we can afford to protect these habitats. These endangered animals.
    2
  1973. How about isolating these mines and all the extraction processes to prevent pollution for the residents?
    2
  1974. Ouch. Sounds like this country desperately needs stability, education, availability of prescriptions, a civilized stance on relationships and better healthcare/counseling. That's what tends to decrease excessive birth rates and lowers maternal/child maternity rates.
    2
  1975. Politicians are participating at a circus and playing petty games during an economic and health crisis. So incredibly disrespectful. This impeachment tool should arguably be removed or severely limited if politicians keeps on abusing it so badly.
    2
  1976.  @desciplesofthomassankara3021  Africa making long-term and sustainable decisions that benefits their people is unfortunately not the norm.
    2
  1977. Qatar will only turn into Yemen if Qatari authorities allows militant groups to be armed, grow, mobilize and attack Qatari authorities and Saudi Arabia/their neighbours. That's what led to the intervention in Yemen against the terror-designated Houthis, sponsored by Iran.
    2
  1978. If that's your statement and takeaway from the initiation of a vaccination drive, you sound ignorant.
    2
  1979. Democracy in Tunisia worsened their situation. Democratic principles used to respond to a pandemic failed miserably. This hasn't been a great year for those advocating for liberal democracy. It's on rapid retreat, into reformation.
    2
  1980. Having to wear hijab/niqabs is probably very liberating compared with the controlling laws and the oppressive culture that exists for women and people as a whole in these countries.
    2
  1981.  @kpackard1  The great level of emissions and man-made impacts have been proven to have significant effect on global temperatures, nature and animal species. Worsened air quality damages humans too. It can be controlled.
    2
  1982.  Helen Pauls  We're almost forced to take it even though we're healthy and very unlikely to become sick by the virus. Heck, in some countries you're 100% forced to take it. Yet herd immunity seems like an impossibility, just look at Israel, an almost fully vaccinated people back in lock down with mandates. So why not just let the risk groups take the vaccine, and those who want it?
    2
  1983. Many ought to be held accountable for this unwarranted impeachment circus.
    2
  1984. Probably since they're far-left communists (according to their Wikipedia page), blaming racism, systematic injustice and discrimination whenever an opportunity surfaces. I don't get how people can make a big deal over the attendance discrepancy at a school meeting/convention. Why does racism immediately have to be assumed? Makes no sense.
    2
  1985. Criminalize em'.
    2
  1986. Trump will be missed. The impact and imprint that he'll leave behind him will go down in history. The amount of pressure that he faced and all the roadblocks in front of him was unprecedented. Millions of journalists, lawyers, judges, SCOTUS, Congress, rights groups and liberal leaders and all of their constituency did all they could to prevent Trump from doing what he promised his supporters to do. The establishment got him in the end, unfortunately, but I presume that he'll come back in one way or another.
    2
  1987. Harassing him and his family by using paparazzi tactics because of his planned vacation that likely didn't interrupt his work significantly, is over the top and tacky. Poeple should stay on topic instead.
    2
  1988. Qatar, UAE, KSA and others are aware of the risk of letting these people in. Europe are unwilling to see the risks, which is why they've experienced so many problems from their fake tolerance the past decades.
    2
  1989. Did they protest or riot?
    2
  1990. Hong Kong and China aren't national socialists, so no. Every country raises their children to somewhat respect the history, laws, and traditions of the nation. Some countries puts more emphasis on that than others. That's usually just healthy and creates unity.
    2
  1991. Do you think so? Pretty sure it must be controlled by the current military government. They'd probably be arrested otherwise.
    2
  1992. A controlled opposition. Clever move by the junta. Now the country can get back on track under the disguise that the opposition are represented, democratically.
    2
  1993. The actors who manages to control the narratives and what's allowed in the public discourse will almost always police speech and terminate the opposition. Corporations will stand behind the popular narrative in the country that they operate in, which is why we see rainbow colored corporations cheering on and defending the suppression of free speech when it fits their agenda to reach maximum ROI. Morals, consistency and freedom is thrown out of the window by all of these actors, for financial or political reasons. The companies and individuals who indulges in the restriction of conservative speech must be regulated. I don't see the need of restricting speech unless we're talking about bullies, conspiracy theorists, radicalized fake news proliferators and those who violate our laws.
    2
  1994. Looks like a pretty country. Blue lagoon oceans. Beautiful beaches. A paradise for tourists. But Cape Verde is more than meets the eye, clearly. Good luck in the elections!
    2
  1995. Many seems to be unaware of how the UN works. I've seen so much bashing of the UN by people not realizing the UN isn't some global military that interferes without authorization and without approving votes by its member countries.
    2
  1996. Can't wait to read through the thousands of op-eds regarding how "Qatar are violating HR" and how "the world should boycott them". Face the facts, these countries will stay intact, they'll never change their politics in a significant way. And sports doesn't have anything to do with politics. Let it stay that way and let any responsible, appropriate and wealthy country host these games.
    2
  1997. Not just smoking, all drugs. Alcohol, tobacco, heavy drugs. The climate and our health would improve greatly then. I think humanity's well-being and mental state will be enriched by protecting and favoring the globe's natural state, such as preventing emissions and activities that infringes upon nature, habitats, biodiversity and the atmosphere. Beneficial in all regards.
    2
  1998. Which country wasn't built by "hate", by those standards?
    2
  1999. Spot on.
    2
  2000. Lebanon's government can't even care for their own citizens and their economy is shattered. Currency is devalued. Banks can't provide capital to its customers due to how desperate people are, trying to withdraw all cash they have to survive. It's the last country that I'd enter if I had to try and survive and seek shelter. If these countries had proper management and sought peace rather than conflict, things would be different.
    2
  2001.  @troyaddreoryn4556  The people supported the military. That's what he means. The people supported suppressive tactics against a group in Myanmar, and now the people are targeted themselves. Well, the rioters/protesters.
    2
  2002. hmm. Would Zionists be fine with risking immense deescalation and implications that could result in a full-blown war in the region? Would any responsible diplomat and country be fine with this? If it was planned by a state, the ramifications can be dire. I doubt anyone wants that.
    2
  2003. Mainly state corruption, an incompetent rule enforcing a planned economy and many of the country's socialist policies, are to blame. It doesn't look good for Venezuela. The regime has tightened its grip on power and its people are losing power to impact the country. Many are brainwashed into supporting Maduro, too, without realizing that he's slowly killing his own people.
    2
  2004. What are the Israeli populace even opposed to when it comes to Netanyahu's politics? His precautionary response to the corona? His alleged corruption? It all seems exaggerated. Gantz and Netanyahu are the main candidates to rule Israel, but they're still very similar in their political agenda. Why can't the country figure out a stable coalition? Calling for new elections all the time is a waste of time and resources.
    2
  2005. Isn't it full of indecency, abominable elements and sick actors? Pretty sure that's why the carnival has been criticized. For its participants poor conduct.
    2
  2006. Feel blessed to be living in a country where storms, tsunamis, landslides, flooding and earthquakes never occurs. Must be tough for those having to live with these natural cataclysms. Hope Fiji gets through this.
    2
  2007. Doctors shouldn't be able to prescribe medical drugs at all, well, apart from the severe cases where a patient can't live or survive without one. Both the medical and psychiatric industry are prescribing these pills way too much. Bribes are sometimes involved too. Lots of regulation is needed in these shady industries.
    2
  2008. ...there is. Peaceful diplomacy. But war, violence and threats is all that Islamic theocracies and the Gulf states knows, right? Might be time to change that.
    2
  2009.  @starshipdriver8536  Okay? Any objections? The assimilating policy against Uigurs doesn't justify intervention or conflicts. That's up to China. China are doing it to prevent terrorism and destabilization. I don't agree with all of China's censorship or way of handling their people, but we can't overreact to every such matter. If we did, we'd have to sanction the world and go to war on the daily. No thanks.
    2
  2010.  @fazm313  You clearly weren't here. The international community, UN and many organizations has condemned the Myanmar military for their strict actions taken against the high-risk religious group in the country. The leader has been drawn to the international court for heaven's sake. Don't pretend as if the entire world were quiet before the military coup earlier this year.
    2
  2011. Dangerous experiments were commonplace to be conducted throughout the 19th and 20th century. We received a lot of information by that, changing the scientific consensus, medical world, and how to deal with nuclear, etc. Should France be punished for something they regret? Even though France has delivered military assistance and foreign aid year after year to plenty of countries? Seems unfair to single them out and scapegoat them.
    2
  2012. Abolishing protectionism in the agricultural sector is very risky. Can result in a destroyed industry, crushed profits, and reliance in corporations or countries that may not have your own best interests in mind. Not sure what Modi and his cabinet were thinking here, apart from just looking at it from a perspective of pure return of investment financially.
    2
  2013. Because his advisors told him what to say to the military commanders with full insight into these foreign conflicts and militant groupings. It's not like Biden's out on the battleground. That said, I thought his speech was quite striking and satisfactory for it to be a Biden speech. Promised troop removal, expressed sorrow and regret over the fallen soldiers, and pledged to strike back against ISIS. But none of this dissolves his responsibility for what happened.
    2
  2014.  agustin de itrubide  Why are cartels controlling the country? Why are Mexicans fleeing the country in large groups? Are you blinded by state propaganda or bought up by some unethical network?

  2015. May the world and every imaginary godly figure make sure that Iran cease their sponsorship to terrorist groups and rebels. May Iran calm down their radicalism and instinctive diplomatic attacks. Same goes for Israel and every Gulf state.
    2
  2016. For these people, losing weight would probably be more effective (long-term) than using a prescription to mitigate the side-effect of a virus that mainly affects the elderly, the weak/vulnerable, obese, those with unhealthy lifestyles, and people that are sick.
    2
  2017. Communist revolution will obviously not be the answer to any of the country's problems, quite the contrary. It'll worsen them. And focusing solely on targeting a wealthy group of people tend to be done by extreme revolutionaries.
    2
  2018. Great, i'm glad for both parties that they managed to figure it out in the end. The negotiations will however continue for years. I wonder if the UK would've benefitted more by staying in the EU and developing into a sovereign Hungary/Poland, or if departure and possibly saving money is better. EU has started to crack down, censor and punish Hungary/Poland for their nationalist politics, so perhaps we'll see a continued split in the union for the next years to come.
    2
  2019. ...you do know that Australia's participation and military offensive in the middle east against terrorists wasn't unprovoked, right?
    2
  2020.  @bernardoleonard7331  To jail? He seems to be harassing moderate opponents. He's a social conservative and nationalist though, which are some decent values. If the country manages to stamp out corruption, unemployment and by creating unity...perhaps he'll be fine as a leader. Any Ugandans here will to provide some further insight?
    2
  2021. The undemocratic United States of America reinforces the belief that the country is far from a clean democracy, and that democratic values and human rights only are advocated for when it fits. This precedent is gonna strike back on those defending it today. I say this as someone who's a critic of Greene's gun policies and idiotic statements about 9/11, school shootings, laser beams and qanon.
    2
  2022. That's not how democracy or the United States works. It's not like the Arab world, where every dissident is removed or killed for practising their basic right.
    2
  2023. The Oscars academy pleased the demands of the racist mob a few years ago who complained that the jury were too "white" or something along those lines. Affirmative action does now seem to be their game. Lost all my respect and care for the academy after that.

  2024.  @MrSirius420  The man was a criminal gangster that constantly committed wrongdoing. He was arrested and his luck ran out. He overdosed and his fallible heart couldn't handle it. How the heck can your life have changed on the behalf of this man?

  2026. ...what? Why the hostility towards Macron?
    2
  2027. Should a country where violence and barbarism is normalized practise violent sports? It's good that unification and peace between different people is achieved through the practise. But teaching people how to fight and indulge in violence may not be ideal. Besides for basic self-defense.
    2
  2028. That's strange considering that most leftists can't have a discussion without talking about how "oppressed" the Palestinians are, even though Palestine is one of the most oppressive areas in the middle east with no intention to strike a peace deal.
    2
  2029.  @واديالذئاب-غ7ز  When the option is to stand behind terror sponsoring states advocating for Sharia, the right choice is apparent.
    2
  2030. Biden has a special relationship with Black LIves Matter and Antifascist action, so I don't think stability will be a priority of his. That's in fact impossible, unless he changes attitude on these subversive organizations. Biden has even appointed many diversity tokens and voices that publicly has talked favorably of these movements. What happened at Capitol Hill last Wednesday is nothing compared with what these other movements has done.
    2
  2031. Did you use this quote when the terrorist blew himself up next to children, civilians and troops? A retalitatory strike was obviously needed after what happened two days ago against those in favor of these senseless attacks.
    2
  2032. Signing a governmental deal with rebels. That'll end well..
    2
  2033. Did the protest movement that led to Nikol Pashinyan, the journalist's claim to power and position of PM, advocate for retaking disputed territory by war? Or was that a biproduct of the region's development that he had to handle on his watch? Either way, we don't need more warmongering and disputes between nations. Deescalation and peace should be the goal.
    2
  2034. EU should just make some small concessions already. They're the biggest player here and has to take responsibility for future trade and political relations with the UK that will be inevitable. If delays in negotiation hasn't worked the past several years, what makes Ursula and Johnson think that the deadlock will be eased now? Come on..
    2
  2035. America is a free and thriving nation with a democracy that people think they can use to their advantage, even though the country is run by corporations and a deviated 2-party state.
    2
  2036. Most women and people are brainwashed to like it and to believe that they're doing their duty and playing their societal role properly. To accept the unnecessary oppression and patriarchal structures. These countries is where actual feminism is justified, a little bit, if you will.
    2
  2037. Face tattoos and an inability to walk without looking like they're limping at 0:50 Doesn't seem like a healthy character to encourage for a country. Yet they're a minister? sigh
    2
  2038. Several EU member countries are heavily controlled under EU's supranational tendencies and per definition not sovereign. Notice how the EU has criticized Hungary and Poland a whole lot? Or Greece, Italy and Spain along with some others for their poor economic planning? The migrant commissioner Ylva Johansson's attempts to force a careless migration policy on everyone? Along with depleted sovereignty, costs and ineffectiveness of the EU, that's why the UK left and why others are considering leaving.
    2
  2039. Nah. Atheistic countries are also impacted by the migration flows, by war, and by the instabilities caused in the IP-conflict.

  2040.  @Linda43  Just looking at trends. 4 elections in 2 years. Deadlock after deadlock.

  2041. What's the arguments for the budget cuts by the government? Saving up capital to divert it to handling the coronavirus? Paying off the national debt? Cutting off programs deemed as unnecessary? Has the government responded?
    2
  2042. Meh, who cares. The world just became a little safer.
    2
  2043. Another lawbreaker that the police had to take care of. And once again, meaningless, forced and laughable outrage popped up. People still take this nonsense seriously?
    2
  2044. And that has what to do with Jeff Bezos and Amazon?
    2
  2045. Strange that Iran allows Western propaganda. I suppose their economic situation is too dire to miss out on some extra revenue from book sales or fast food restaurants.
    2
  2046. That's disgusting. Eww.
    2
  2047. Or how about sending them to Saudi Arabia or North Korea. At least these entities won't a threat anymore, then.
    2
  2048.  @adambeaulieu8581  Right. BOTH Iran and USA should back down and stop murdering people for political and arbitrary reasons. But USA aren't sponsoring any terror groups today, as opposed to Iran. Deal with and clean up your own court.
    2
  2049.  @SamCary64  Why didn't the federal government, federal authorities nor the courts, seriously investigate the claims of fraud? Why were all sworn affidavits dismissed? Why wasn't the potentially unconstitutional change to some states election laws prior to the 2020 election challenged? Mail men threw away hundreds of ballots. Unsolicited ballots were sent to the unqualified and those who didn't request them. Lots of irregularities were seen, with NO serious investigations. I say this as someone who HATES conspiracies and wouldn't mind making such behavior illegal. So that should say a whole lot. After the response by "democrats" and the media bias surrounding this, I can see why people haven't accepted Biden's "win".
    2
  2050. One of the downsides by quarantine measures and curfews, but it's well-needed. Services and assistance should be in place to mitigate those who are contemplating actions that could hurt themselves or society. What we however cannot do is to ease all corona restrictions to protect short-term public mental health. That'd lead to mass death. It's a tough issue to tackle, however, there's no denying that.
    2
  2051. Republicans will have to go further to the right if they're looking to take advantage of the post-Trump era of where there's ~80M+ citizens that voted for Trump. They can't take the liberal or centrist route to stay relevant.
    2
  2052.  @markscott2956  "Overwhelming majority" Biden didn't win with a landslide. Half of america supports and loves Trump.
    2
  2053. An attractive cougar-lady with the make up of a confident black panther. Hot indeed.
    2
  2054. That's generally what it happening, yes. The police gets the blame for nothing. There are problems with corruption and, in rare cases, perhaps some excessive use of force. But the police are in 99,9% of cases doing the right thing and should be praised for it. Al Jazeera are fuelling an extremist and unfair narrative here.
    2
  2055.  @justdogood7413  The "sheeple" (populace) would be compensated and helped out if they were forced to stay in curfew. Same goes for corporations. And it's only a temporary period of time. Why are you against protecting the population from viruses?
    2
  2056. This country is in such a deep mess. And what does the state and much of its people and apologists blame? USA, for implementing sanctions due to illegitimate elections, oppression and corrupt governing. The audacity..
    2
  2057. Why demonstrate if you don't even know what you want? "Protesting against inequality and police abuse", what's that supposed to mean? Do you want democracy or a dictatorship? A system with capitalism/socialism or a combination? Conservatism/liberalism? What's the most concrete pressing issues that has to be mitigated?
    2
  2058. Fun little scapegoat there, completely deviated from reality. Or are you joking? Presumably so.

  2059. Anyone with a brain and a conscience. A pandemic isn't a joke.
    2
  2060. Perhaps don't have children in unstable geographical areas where safety can't be ensured and where the maternity/child mortality rate is alarmingly high?
    2
  2061. Exactly. Personal responsibility and common sense are rare traits to come across nowadays.
    2
  2062.  @jzk2020  Quiet, racist. Telling a criminal fool to follow the law or get hit isn't racist. Turning it into a racist narrative for no justifiably reason IS racist.
    2
  2063. An independently approved and safe vaccine should definitely be mandatory. Everyone's equal, everyone has to make an effort and sacrifice to protect the collective. There's a genuine beauty in that.
    2
  2064. I don't know the merits to these Ecuadorians election fraud claims, but in the United States, they'd be dismissed as conspiracy theorists, as undemocratic actors, and they'd be filtered/censored from the discourse completely. Even without any investigations or audits into the assertions.
    2
  2065. Cool. Respect and abide by laws, don't support radical riots, don't encourage foreign interference, and don't defend movement that are inherently flawed and unwarranted. Those who break these codes of ethics can rightfully be removed.
    2
  2066. Which is why controlled opposition and ensuring that the populace is satisfied and calm is crucial to any strongarm state.
    2
  2067. From his enforcement of excessive sharia laws, socialism, brutal repression, and for stealing, allegedly, hundreds of millions USD to enrich himself and his corrupt collaborators at the top. Although after reading about Gaddafi, I'm conflicted. He prohibited alcohol and gambling, which is great. He also defended pirates killing off innocent people at Somalia's coast and in close vicinity. He downplayed AIDS. He was a destabilizing force for the world, sponsored shady groups domestically and internationally, and propped up socialism.
    2
  2068.  @piperafrica1150  Not yet, because of the civil war. Libya's socialism and its government under Gaddafi that kept on sucking out state funds for their own benefit or by sponsoring rebels/illegal networks around the world, wouldn't have lasted that much longer anyway.
    2
  2069. Africa's population is very young. They for the most part won't feel the effects of the virus. There's plenty of other more serious virus epidemics and challenges that these people face as well. But I don't see what's with the entitlement from the representatives of this continent. The rich world developed the vaccines (and most existing prescriptions for that matter) and carries Africa on their shoulders in every way. Of course their own populations will be prioritized. Countries across the world aren't just charities providing handouts with no strings attached or limits. Let's not forget initiatives such as COVAX and all the foreign aid.
    2
  2070. It was seemingly a natural heart attack. But the ambulance arrived after an hour or so, some think that it took too long. His lifestyle is what led to this, not foul play, from what we know.
    2
  2071. People are always gonna excuse and trivialize the actions of a perceived victim by putting blame elsewhere and making up scapegoats. That's how some people cope, defend their friends and move forward. Shame that innocents will be hurt though.
    2
  2072. "Defending human rights" is quite superficial and usually means that you're protecting the worst type of people and expand rights/privileges to those that don't deserve it. But in this case, the protests against the corrupt communist sympathizer in Belarus (Lukashenko) is justiied. He's destroyed the economy, failed completely in responding to the coronavirus, and arrested many innocents. Congratulations to Tikhanovskaya for being awarded for her efforts made.
    2
  2073. Lukashenko is useless and has destroyed Belarus. Just look at his communist sympathies and recommendations to handle the virus (drive tractors, drink beer, play hockey, bath in the sauna). The fool deserves to go and his opponents rightfully praised.
    2
  2074. Here comes the undermined national security. All because Biden and some 'progressive' maniacs wants to look good.
    2
  2075. Not really. Why should French people and journalists be able to harass police officers and their families? To be able to distort stories about the police for political reasons to malicious shame and attack our police? That should result in harsh penalties, and has nothing to do with press freedom or civilized freedom of speech. Fun side-note: The government won't drop these laws, the bill will just be amended.
    2
  2076.  @Artman1  Stop lying. The man was a paranoid maniac who kept on resisting arrest and prevented cooperating even though the police were calm and cooperative for minutes. The intervention had to be done because GF was a tangible unstable threat. Fix your crime-ridden communities instead of blaming the police.
    2
  2077. My family members wouldn't behave like lawless gangsters, ever. So....
    2
  2078. There's not much to address unless you're willing to use reverse McCarthyism to divide this nation further and erode people's rights. White supremacy and its violent inclinations should be halted, but it's such a small and minimal problem compared with revolutionary leftist groups, regular crime, the economic recession, job losses, the pandemic, and cultural/border issues that ought to be addressed first.
    2
  2079. Or just follow the new guidelines that the UK will have to adhere to, something that most people do support. It's not that big of a deal. Let's not encourage violent separatism.
    2
  2080. Such a useless conflict. Still can't see why they're rioting. And where's the police? Just lock up these rebellious young rascals who clearly have no clue what they're doing and erase the separatist groups. Shouldn't be a difficulty at all in a civilized country.
    2
  2081.  @kenfu9334  Did you just upvote yourself? Don't talk about the appearance of others if you don't want to have a conversation about it. And don't comment on the internet if you don't want responses.
    2
  2082. She's alright. Nothing out of the ordinary. Sexually frustrated/deprived?
    2
  2083. Yep. Prioritizing warmongering, conflict and division by ramping up the military and rebels groups in the region instead of prioritizing the people, could be seen as a crime against humanity, in a figurative sense.
    2
  2084. Neoliberalism would imply that you abandon political principles and decency by selling your soul for profits. Is that's what being done here? I don't think so.
    2
  2085. If you think the Republican party or those who've fought against Biden, generally, are "conservative", you're heavily misguided.
    2
  2086. Independent observer here; These specific executive orders are indisputably beneficial for America and the world. Trump had his flaws and his positive characteristics, his weak response to corona was one of his flaws, for sure. I think he'd have been reelected if it weren't for the pandemic. The leverage and criticism that his opposition had prior to the coronavirus was not persuasive in any way.
    2
  2087. From an article: "Biden signed executive orders to establish a COVID-19 testing board to ramp up testing, address supply shortfalls, establish protocols for international travelers and direct resources to hard-hit minority communities."
    2
  2088. Yep. TPF should be dissolved and delegitimized entirely. Their acts of terrorism and secession is unacceptable, and is the reason why this conflict is occurring. Hoping that Ethiopia and its partners can retake the fallen cities in the mountainous North.
    2
  2089. That's important to note before listening to this, yes. Greece are carried by donations and funding from the EU because they've messed up their economy. They have a low retirement age, prioritizes spending over stability, has massive debts/shortages, and has long lived over one's own means.
    2
  2090. Good that they were recaptured by security forces and freed. Until these groups are eliminated completely, the developed world can't come in close contact and associate themselves with these countries and broken parts of their culture. We've sent a whole lot of aid and military personnel to help out in the fight though. Hope it succeeds.
    2
  2091.  @AndroidGuru13  Guaidó (the speaker of the parliament/national assembly) is the interim leader in the country according to the Venezuelan constitution due to the irregularities in the recent presidential election, and due to the blockade of international observers resulting in an illegitimate seizure of power
    2
  2092. These sort of illegitimate and suppressive elections is something that socialists don't mind, because it prevents dissent and lets them stay in power to terrorize the country and usurp the small amount of funds that exists. Even attempts of change in the broken state of Venezuela is dismissed by socialists around the world.
    2
  2093. The point of this deal is literally to prevent being "alone" and unnecessary tariffs, which has been struck now. Read and listen before you comment. Guess we can't expect that by those suffering from unhinged TDS.
    2
  2094. Exactly. Well said. The majority of victims from violence and physical attacks are men as well, not women. Let's just focus on eliminating violence and poor conduct altogether. Invoking the feminist perspective and turning the debate into solely sympathizing with women is just disrespectful and a foul tactic.
    2
  2095. No they don't. They're a part of NATO. They were in an agreement with the USA to NOT purchase weapons from our enemies. They threaten Europe all the time. Send military troops to Syria out of the blue. Is a hostile and rogue state. That's why Turkey are punished and sanctioned here. They're in the wrong.
    2
  2096. Abiy is elected and has tried to unify the unstable political and militant parts of the nation, including the TPLF. TPLF responded by force and hurt Ethiopian military troops. What is Abiy supposed to do? Back down? How is he in the wrong here?
    2
  2097.  Daniel Samson  What's funny is that if a journalist tries to investigate war crimes in Tigray, they'll probably find more violations by the TPLF than the Ethiopian army. 😂
    2
  2098. The extra measures suggested or extra oversight into this guy, etc, wouldn't have stopped this exact person because he behaved in a non-suspect manner, followed the law and travelled around without raising suspicion at all. That's why the person pretty much was unstoppable for authorities. I think Reuters published a great article earlier today going into thorough detail into what happened and why it couldn't have been stopped, if you're interested.
    2
  2099. Without putting blame on anyone else than the terrorist, would this have happened in a homogeneous society? That question is worth raising I think.
    2
  2100. Indeed. A temporary lock down while simultaneously providing compensation to bleeding businesses until a return to normalcy is available is what every government should've resorted to. Otherwise you'll end up in a situation where hospitals are overrun, the country has to close down/open up, businesses may go bankrupt and the market becomes unstable.
    2
  2101. Just hold on a little longer until the vaccination programs has been finished up. Rioting will only make things worse for yourself and others. Props to the authorities for stepping their foot down.
    2
  2102. "Take it easy with the proliferation of nuclear weapons and avoid warfare if you want to live"
    2
  2103.  @mahmoudiben9061  Abiy was democratically elected and is internationally recognized though. He's solved a couple of disputes and conflicts with Eritrea, resulting in being given the peace prize. I don't agree with his politics, but he seems to hold legitimate power and is trying to unify the country, handle TPLF rebels who have been attacking governmental troops, and reshaping the Ethiopian parliament.
    2
  2104. The popular vote isn't as flawless as you think. Do you seriously think that millions of people can band together and make responsible decisions regarding a virus outbreak, drug-usage, fields that require expertise, morality, and what policies are needed to protect a country? Of course not. Especially not when the popular vote involves people that wouldn't be able to vote in any reasonable world (criminals, extreme elements, traitorous entities, illegal actors, & the young).
    2
  2105. Is all cultural heritage worth preserving? Does it stifle needed progress in some countries?
    2
  2106. Well, Trump didn't and nobody did so. The demonstration was planned and deteriorated a bit. The police didn't respond because they were afraid of another toxic BLM rioting era. Trump has never encouraged violence and you have to stretch the argument to even try and make that point.
    2
  2107. A trade war for petty reasons and because China can't handle the truth. So meaningless. China ought to be deterred for what they're doing here.
    2
  2108. Because the rest of the world already has travel bans in place? Or because the rest of the world is asleep?
    2
  2109. Most Hong kongers supports obeying to the CCP as well. The security law is supported by the majority. So I don't see why we keep on talking about these vandals and new policies as if the change is "bad".
    2
  2110. Epstein? No chance.
    2
  2111. Using the term "criminal" doesn't make someone into a "criminal". These people were convicted through an illegal investigation that mostly targeted innocent individuals.
    2
  2112.  @outlaw6429  "untested", get a grip. It isn't untested, it's rigorously checked and examined, prior to approving it. While long-term side effects can't be ruled out and may occur in very rare cases, these sort of prescriptions tends to safe and effective for the majority of its recipients.
    2
  2113.    They went out and rioted, screamed and shouted because Macron, the president of France, decided to crack down on dangerous islamic terrorism in Europe. Bangladeshis, Pakistanis and some other nationalities behaded a doll resembling Macron, and offered sympathy to the jihadistic extremists that had infiltrated Europe. How kind and humble are them in actuality?
    2
  2114. Why are you oily? Using the wrong type of shampoo? Spending time in unsanitary conditions?
    2
  2115.  @eduwino151  Yep. People should think a little and put the propaganda aside before posting. China is the opposite of economically independent.
    2
  2116. China's rubbing their hands. Getting ready for increased ROI by investments and strategic cooperation with the new leadership in Afghanistan. China and their friends don't care about who's in power as long as regional stability is preserved.
    2
  2117. Lol what
    2
  2118. These people won't be convinced by moral arguments, by talking about how babies are dehumanized and erased, or that the legislation enables a irresponsible lifestyles that results in broken minds and fallible relations. These sort of people should've never been given the influence to get involved in these social issues. Oh well.
    2
  2119. Tragic. These places needs a police state to imprint people with the message that this pandemic (and similar issues) is something to take seriously, in order to protect themselves and the vulnerable. We wouldn't have to worry that much about the pandemic if everyone temporarily took it seriously.
    2
  2120. What more could they have done in a large and populous area that wasn't considered as an area that the typhoon would've swept over? Forbidden deforestation? Evacuated people more rapidly and prepared for these sort of accidents across the whole country?
    2
  2121. I agree with your general sentiment. But how can you say all of this and concede that God has nothing to do (according to what we know) with any of this, while at the same time be a believer? Or are you defining yourself as a secular muslim?
    2
  2122. Hilarious how Trump is being blamed for this, when he's literally floating the idea of pardoning/dropping charges against Assange and Snowden. Biased judges and individuals as a whole, is the worst.
    2
  2123. Many of those who violate social distancing rules to hang out with friends, party or join public events, are usually young. So they won't die. But they'll likely spread the virus to the vulnerable and indirectly kill them.
    2
  2124. Why is civilized diplomacy and kindness when negotiating with the rest of the world so difficult to have? It's as if Turkey wants the EU and the globe to show contempt for them. I say this as a EU critic myself.
    2
  2125. Salvador Cienfuegos served during a Mexican administration that heavily policed and cracked down upon drug trade. I wonder if he was bribed or pushed in a direction that led to the current counterproductive approach of "hugs, not bullets", which has been tried under the administration of Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and has led to the worst per capita murder rate in Mexico's history. A policy that has destroyed the country and led to so many unnecessary deaths/injuries/traumas/abuses.
    2
  2126. Zero liability because some side-effects can't be eliminated or proven. Death isn't a side-effect, no. The alternative of not vaccinating is significantly worse. Do some research, move out of your box and don't be so selfishly naive.
    2
  2127. Lol, that's unhinged. You don't go to prison for operating as president after having been elected. That's not how it works in civilized countries. Maybe in Iran, where dissidents gets jailed and killed all the time. But we're not barbarians.
    2
  2128. Anti-vaxxers strikes again.
    2
  2129.  @isprikitikburkabush6200  Well, the Olympics is only a temporary event which provides great PR. I base my judgement on a recent survey stating that a dominant majority of the Japanese opposed visitors (partially due to corona) and based on their strict migration policy.
    2
  2130. Probably because fraud is seen and called all the time no matter what happens in African elections. Many of these countries have no good track records when it comes to infallible elections and transparency. Many are dictatorships and banana republics. No one is surprised by this.
    2
  2131. No postal voting to prevent being impacted by the violence?
    2
  2132. The religion that is responsible for most of the bombings, atrocities, attacks and is seen as the biggest threat to the world. Take a guess.
    2
  2133. How about a compromise. Bulldoze the area, build up a bunch of new facilities and premises. BUT, plant the double amount of mangrove/CO2-capturing trees elsewhere, preferably in close vicinity to preserve biodiversity. Deal?
    2
  2134. They don't want Maduro either because he's only ruined the country by his policies of planning the economy, suppressing everybody, cheating, corruption and stifling groups. This is a bad day, and a bad time, for Venezuela.
    2
  2135. No. Their economies are doing appalling and their people are suffering. Socialism is a threat to any person willing to live safely and thrive. What works is authoritarianism. Centralization. Totalitarian ideology. Not socialism per se.
    2
  2136. The media has been pushed to never portray black people as offended. Journalists and the public is basically encouraged to treat them as victims, even though they're overrepresented in crime, racial laws has been abolished, assistance/acceptance has been sent these demographics way for decades, etc. What's worse is that people buy into the distortions. The narrative that white people, the police, or the system would be the "problem". Give me a break. I don't know what this guy did prior to the police intervention, but I presume it wasn't very charming or harmless.That's usually why the police goes in hard.
    2
  2137. Sharia law prevents women from doing anything. When the culture, country and laws are formed that way, can you really blame the women? Blame the real culprits instead.
    2
  2138. The Australian government would never post a blatantly fake image to tarnish another country. That's the difference between the civilized world and the hostile/undeveloped world. So let's not make things up. China posted fabricated news to stoke up conflict and should be condemned.
    2
  2139.  @ajkhan0  Border conflicts and territory disputes is prevalent in many geographical places in the world. Yet, the IP-conflict seems to receive a special type of coverage and reactions whenever it's handled. You didn't respond to my initial question.
    2
  2140. India is trying unfettered neoliberalism inspired by perhaps trickle down economics or the capitalist structure that has (mostly) led to successful outcomes in the West. Maybe these reforms are taking it a bit too far, and India and its market will realize that.
    2
  2141. Individuals who've acted in a way that leads to HIV and AIDS shouldn't be given treatment that lets them maintain the destructive and questionable lifestyles. I still don't see enough of people pointing this out. It's like giving food and nutrition to a deadly animal species that you don't want endangering your community.
    2
  2142. A similar case happened in the hospitals of Sweden. Lots of pressure on the healthcare system, and a limited supply of resources can result in this.
    2
  2143.  @GBTWC  Lol. Proof? Do you think every Russian consents to the Putin regime?
    2
  2144. He's got a better and more caring vision than Putin though. Doesn't matter if he's seen as a "puppet".
    2
  2145. The lisping and almost unintelligible expressions from the reporter in Pakistan makes it hard to follow along, unfortunately. Good news though. Improved conditions for rare animal species, such as the elephants, will increase its health and ability to survive.
    2
  2146. Religion. Radicalism. Poor education. A lack of control from the government. A lack of zero tolerance policies against these psychopaths. A societal structure that lets these entities thrive.
    2
  2147. Guantanamo Bay is used to house and lock up dangerous criminals and terrorists. Cuba locks up dissidents and people trying to make a positive change in the country. See the difference?
    2
  2148.  @hyperbravo5514  These garnments and veils are a sign of oppression. Of strict belief in Sharia law and harsh treatment of anyone who doesn't adhere to the doctrine. Of supporting bombings/torture/vigilantism by extreme groups in the name of Islam. To prevent this from spreading, you have to limit the signs and characteristics associated with the ideas. Banning islamic schools and clothing is one step on the road. Limiting religious dogma is another step on the way.
    2
  2149. They've always been criticized and persecuted in some way for various reasons. Without WWII, I presume something similar to Israel would've established itself. The influence by the group would likely be stronger as well.
    2
  2150. Maybe if PA, Hamas, Hizbollah and its allies stops indulging in funding and resorting to acts of terrorism, a one-sided approach in the IP-conflict, and seeks peace rather than conflict. The stagnated war/conflict is a result of a combative attitude that prevents any attempts of peace and cooperation. Holding a questionable election 15 years later won't change much.
    2
  2151. First election in 15 years. But Israel is the country rejecting human rights and democracy, right guys?
    2
  2152.  @vasilenegru2893  He is right and offered encouraging messaging to the country. What is your problem?
    2
  2153. You're on social media right now, Caring. And I've seen you quite a lot in the comment section. Why not follow your own advice? Social media usage in moderation can be fruitful and enjoyable for many. It can lead society forward, up until the persecution of individuals (which we're starting to see) occurs.
    2
  2154. Putin loyalist judges defending Putin's government's stance on Navalny. Who could've guessed 🙄
    2
  2155. Don't commit atrocious terror attacks, assimilate to the country's norms and laws, and contribute to society and you won't experience any crackdowns. The group you're referring to didn't meet these quotas, and were therefore, partially, targeted by the military.
    2
  2156. Standing up to a bully and giving an ultimatum to the bully is an expected tactic to take, which is what the USA are doing.
    2
  2157.  @bangtongkat6821  I don't think it's a distraction. But USA has lots of issues to handle. The corona management was initially a disaster. Letting hooligans and terrorists wreak havoc without enough intervention was a disgrace (blm, antifa, some trump supporters but mainly the former groups). Shootings is a common problem. Ghettos and the violence seen there must be dealt with.
    2
  2158.  @rommelcorbito808  Russia are basically declaring war, yes. Did the Russian state propaganda outlets not tell you what they're doing?
    2
  2159.  @makeracistsafraidagain  Were you a cop? Then you'd be aware of the misery inflicted by these gangsters roaming around freely on the streets, and would be in support of Chauvin. I doubt you were a cop.
    2
  2160. Yep, it's truly disgusting.
    2
  2161. Chauvin is a hero. Give him a medal and a trophy instead of glorifying these reprehensible convict who've destroyed so much of this country.
    2
  2162. They are a leading country. Accidentally killing off a heavy convict who deserved the inevitable strict intervention that was coming for him after all he did doesn't disprove that, lmao.
    2
  2163. The UK is going to have to handle like ~3 historically significant crises on different fronts. This amount of pressure and tasks that the UK will have to navigate through is almost unprecedented.
    2
  2164.  wim develder  Is the Egyptian president a "puppet of the West" if he enforces policies and an autocratic rule that the West has a strong distaste for? Egypt is one of the more authoritarian states out there and they don't care about what the West thinks. Egypt has all the right do so, but they're not "puppets" for occasionally being aligned to the West's geopolitical ambitions.
    2
  2165. "Far-right populism". Why is this mentioned while the broad presence of BLM and Antifa isn't referred to as far-left populism?
    2
  2166. Not even Trump put america first at the expense of USA's allies and partners. It's just that USA's way of carrying their partners unconditionally was changed, to ensure that everyone pulls their weight. NATO and its budget was strengthened under Trump. The West's hostility against China as a whole (partially justified, but also excessive) would've led to trade wars and disputes no matter if Trump was president.
    2
  2167. Legislation and crackdowns can prohibit abortion. Legislation and crackdowns can also slow the spread of a deadly virus. They're not mutually exclusive. Both policies should prevail in a civilized country.
    2
  2168. For what? Building up a strong police and crushing islamic extremists and fundamentalists to prevent France from being destroyed by outsider threats?
    2
  2169.  @GamerCare  "corruption" Still a clean criminal record. Still innocent. No accusations against him have proven true.
    2
  2170. The US should've done the same when BLM thugs thrashed the streets and burned things down because a criminal died. Place them behind bars or in a quarantine. I'm sure the circumstances for the protests in this Iraqi city is very very different though.
    2
  2171. The 2020 presidential election in this state should be audited. Felons voted. Irregularities occurred. The outcome was such a close call. Also, from what I recall, Wisconsin was one of the states that changed election laws prior to the election, which may be unconstitutional.
    2
  2172. They don't want to, no matter how politicians and NGOs are calling for it.
    2
  2173. This guy's insanity aside, his views are ideologically incomprehensible as well. He's a fervent Zionist. Is a nationalist and a Christian, but paints out Islam as the oppressor and as the biggest threat even though these religions are very similar. Were actively part of a libcon party in Norway. So strange.
    2
  2174. UN peacekeeping forces and assistance from the West were approved many years ago and is present in CAR. Some have been killed and hurt by these militias. The peacekeeping doesn't seem to solve the core of the issue considering that this violence keeps reoccurring. And the lack of gratitude from the residents in these countries isn't very charming or encouraging. Perhaps we should leave them be.
    2
  2175. Many reasons: No education, religious brainwashing, corruption, droughts/natural catastrophes destroying the landscapes, broken ideologies/policies dictating the country, weak policies enabling violent groups to wreak havoc, and because it's hard to lift a massive continent of 1,2B individuals from poverty that keeps on demanding more and more food, water, and resources due to the high fertility rate.
    2
  2176. Russia is a failed, weak and impoverished state. Lay down the Russian propaganda. Russia knows how dangerous it would be for them to provoke another war.
    2
  2177. Relying on a limited resource (oil, natural gas, dino juice), not really educating or expecting much of your citizens, and creating a passive society was a recipe for disaster. Surely everyone knew that that was a bubble that inevitably would burst? At least efforts are taken to diversify the economies in the middle east now, but the question is if it'll be sustainable.
    2
  2178. Ridiculous charges, but it's cool that something is being done. Nobody should be charged if they're innocent, however. The explosives has sat in Lebanon's capital for 7 years. Does anyone seriously think the caretaker PM is responsible for the lack of action by courts and the city's officials? This is a sham.
    2
  2179. How so? Why spread unsubstantiated theories about the poisoning incident in such a careless manner when the incident has been proven, verified by many independent actors, and based off of Russia's track record? Seems naive.
    2
  2180.  @ephraimduke  How are americans different from the people from an opposition in Africa that claims that fraud is occurring every single time whenever they lose an election...? Where's the evidence in this case? I don't doubt that fraud occurred, it should ve investigated. But don't only treat certain groups as conspiracy theorists based on nationality while defending others.
    2
  2181. Muslim majority countries tends to live under Sharia law, where freedom of speech isn't promised. Do these people not see that?

  2182.  @YTuSerName7  Countries using violence and force to take over territory for their own gain could be seen as an act of terror. Lonely citizens attacking their own country or others countries and their citizens to make a political change is terrorism. Random knife attacks, school shootings and lone wolves detonating bombs to hurt others and businesses, isn't an act of terrorism until such motives has been established. How hard is it to make that nuanced distinction?
    2
  2183.  @foxylady9110  These fools with zero education can't make that factual distinction, it seems.
    2
  2184.  @fellan2854  Schools are open no matter what institution you're going to or level of education you're at. Remote learning is used for some students (that's still studying), but that doesn't apply to everyone. Sweden has completely messed up and made a fool of themselves when they've responded to this pandemic. They're the laughing stock of the global and scientific world. Bunch of pseudo-scientific policies.
    2
  2185. She's behaving like a pseudo-scientific anti-state actor, inciting riots/vandals around the world and pretending to invoke the science whenever it fits. Why does she support vandals in HK and India? Why does she oppose nuclear power, even though the scientists emphasizes the need to combine nuclear/fission/renewables for a sustainable transition into an environmental friendly era? Because she's a left-wing activist.
    2
  2186. Something positive about her is that she's got a lot of energy and enthusiasm. She's willing to go on Al Jazeera to be interviewed and interact. That's good. She'd be even better if she shaped her political and public stances based on the facts, science and based on what benefits those who contribute to society. Opposing eco-fascism, everything to do with authoritarianism, sympathizing with lawless movements, and using the science when it fits, is unfortunate and will only result in criticism of her hypocrisy.
    2
  2187. Can't wait for Trump's high energy speech tonight. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that his next move may lay out america's future for decades to come.
    2
  2188. Lol no. Trump and his average supporters has nothing to do with ethnic nationalism, totalitarianism or extremism for that matter. If you believe that, you should do some further research and make an objective analysis rather than being fed fabrications by some randomized journalist at a leftist company.
    2
  2189. Being diplomatic and improving France's position in the world isn't hypocritical, no. It's what a responsible president would do.
    2
  2190. Does Egypt "kill" innocent humans these days? In the early coup days and the days afterwards, sure. These days? Not exactly.
    2
  2191. USA don't kill any innocent individuals in, what are you talking about? The police arresting and rendering perpetrators harmless isn't the same as "killing people" or in KSA's case, assassinating their own citizens. But this is the low level of debate to expect in an Al Jazeera comment section.
    2
  2192.  @rogerioseabra1420  That's all you've got? Did Maduro tell you to say that? No explanation? Get an education.
    2
  2193.  @NyetTube  You're on the wrong track if you believe that the challenges that everyone faces in Venezuela has to do with alleged US involvement or sanctions. It's economic mismanagement by the socialist state, stifling intervention on the market and grave corruption/thuggish behavior by top officials that has resulted in miserable circumstances being cemented in the country.
    2
  2194. There's plenty of reasons to flee Venezuela. But people will keep defending its leadership that has obliterated the country and oppressed its people. Millions have fled from the country the past decades. Millions.
    2
  2195. Good luck using low-tier firearms to fight off an army...not gonna work. I do understand if Venezuelans are feeling desperate and wishes to overthrow their broken state though. But they'll be slaughtered by the state if they try challenge it. Also, it's unclear how manipulated the Venezuelan elections are, but a vast majority seems to potentially support the socialist and corrupt Maduro regime. So it's almost as if the people, partially, created their own destiny. Over and over again.
    2
  2196. For sure? Must be satire.
    2
  2197. RIP Al Jazeera No more ties with Iran/Turkey. No more sponsorship of militants and rebels
    2
  2198.  @a3.148  Delusional. The USA are offering help to stamp out the murderers, bandits and illegal networks that destroys Mexico. Corruption is widespread in Mexico, and the illegal networks has infiltrated the government. That's a fact. Yet Mexico is denying clearly needed assistance from the USA and others? I can't say that it is anything else than simply a delusional and incompetent decision.
    2
  2199. Both sides are warmongerers...especially those that captured territory, causing bloodshed and hundreds of casualties. These conflicts are always so pointless.
    2
  2200. This isn't about winning the election. It's to shape the federal budget properly, distribute resources in a fair way, and spread influence proportionately. Illegal migrants impacts this composition.
    2
  2201. He's supported by the army, most authorities, courts, the national assembly and strong communist foreign allies, sadly.
    2
  2202. The Venezuelan people that are suffering severely from the corrupt and useless socialist dictator will not like this at all either. It's also completely delusional if you think that the Western involvement in trying to create peace, civility and prosperity in Venezuela has to do with oil. But brainwashing is strong, right?
    2
  2203.  @nizicike759  I don't watch Fox News. What are you even saying? Seriously, every time I comment under Al Jazeera i'm met with a bunch of uneducated and blatantly ignorant individuals who've clearly been indoctrinated to the extreme, labelling every critic or opposing viewpoint as "brainwashed by mainstream media, zionists, fox news, or american propaganda": This place is such a joke at times lol, so predictable and responses with zero substance. Reminds me why I barely read replies these days. But maybe the truth seekers and centrists appreciates these takes.
    2
  2204. Encouraging innovation and free thinking is crucial to build up a vibrant society. But there are limits, such as when societal morals and human advancement is stifled by the proliferation of objectively dangerous ideas. Not being a blind conformist is good and all, as long as there's legitimacy in the anti-conformist positioning. That is not always the case, such as the sheep trying to sow skepticism of whether the corona is risky, whether to take vaccines, and whether to recommend masks, etc.
    2
  2205. 0:17, is the guy wielding a golden sceptre? Looks expensive.
    2
  2206. In close vicinity to his advisors, journalists and secretaries, yes. It's important symbolism, and prevents transmission of the virus.
    2
  2207. What a depraved statement. You're calling for the death penalty against the police officers who tried to maintain peace and protect the public? The police officers who removed a dangerous convict, a robber and a shooter that day? Think about what type of criminal apologia that you're indulging in.
    2
  2208. This police chief should be aware that Floyd has a long criminal history, constantly abused and threatened the police, and put himself in these fatal situations by his own action. The police, Chauvin and his friends, who intervened in the case, did so calmly and in a passionate fashion. Medaria Arradondo should resign.
    2
  2209. And never pick your nose.
    2
  2210. Muqtada al-Sadr doesn't seem that radical these days, but secularism in Iraq (with morals intact, of course) rather than Islamic dogmatism, would be preferred. Preserving militant and superstitious ideology will only hurt the nation's strength and ability to grow. Let's not forget that Sadr is a part of the movement and militia group that has slaughtered many innocent people the past decades too. The question is if such a figure is an appropriate one.
    2
  2211. 0:55 lmaooo, the politician just starts screaming out of nowhere
    2
  2212. Apart from the temporary downturn for the businesses (they can hopefully divert to other necessary and beneficial industries), I don't necessarily see this as a bad thing. We need to change our superficial and obsessive shopping habits which involves supporting mass consumption. Mass consumption leading to mass production, emissions, pollution, striving for constant and unregulated growth, and downprioritizing what actually matters in life such as good health, family, and collective unity.
    2
  2213.  Yee Tian  Way too simplified and not a correct comprehensive view. Interference by US has sometimes worsened things, but it's obviously not the main reason why these states has failed long ago.
    2
  2214.  @Madd-ng8cv  The "rich socialist countries" tends to be rich by the use of free market reforms, free trade, and capitalist foundations.
    2
  2215. Imagine how far we'd be if natural disasters wasn't something to take into account or handle when building a civilization. ~$100B and ~5-8K lives lost annually seems to be the average due to heavy weather and cataclysms.
    2
  2216. Biden chose Janet Yellen as US secretary of Treasury, a person in favor of lowering the interest rates without keeping the inflation rate under control at a low and health rate. WHY is it so hard to hire and appoint individuals who'll implement a responsible monetary and fiscal policy? Cutting interest rates, purchasing bonds and stimulating the economy by all means may be needed to boost the economy and let us rebound after the pandemic. But a stagnated unemployment rate with national inflation on our hands isn't precisely preferred to see, which is what we'll see if Yellen continues with the policy, long-term, that she's known for supporting.
    2
  2217.  @snayperkill6218  And Biden is on board that narrative.
    2
  2218. Finally. Blockade lifted. Back to status quo of mass consumption and free trade!
    2
  2219. Good step to get LIbya back on track. What you need to do now is to keep Haftar in check before he invades further cities with his warmongering army sponsored by qausi rogue states.
    2
  2220. It took this long to suspend the mafia state of Syria's voting rights? To be fair, this won't change much. Their allies in these international organizations remains strong. Russia, Iran and other destabilatory states should lost their right to vote too.
    2
  2221. Handling terrorist actions and illegal behavior committed by a group of people is sometimes justified. Although i'm sure the Myanmar army went a bit too far when they went against the rohingyas. Even the army itself has admitted that. But genocidal intent wasn't involved, from what we so far know. It's just that something had to be done to the insurgencies and anti-state activities.
    2
  2222. Maybe if you despise basic rights and high standards of living

  2223. Doubt it. It's too late anyway.

  2225. Artificial methods to mitigate the effects of climate change is always welcomed. Good to hear that the beloved reef, the cultural heritage site in Australia, is protected and cherished.

  2226.  @vitaminprotein6878  lol I heard some extreme HR violations and war crimes were committed by the army troops in the Tigray region. Shivered when I read through the reports.
    2
  2227. Fewer voter restrictions = The Democratic party grows. These dishonest politicians and activists don't care for what's right. They don't care about election security or the fact that IDs are required all over the world. If you can't meet the basic requirements to vote (ID/register/plan ahead), you shouldn't get a vote.
    2
  2228. Humorous that he even has the possibility to sue to the government in a country where the courts and judicial system is 100% controlled by CCP loyalists and politicization. A country with a 100% conviction rate. Expect quick dismissal of the lawsuit. Although lawsuits against the government for covering up the pandemic, punishing healthcare workers and encouraging Chinese citizens to stock up on medical resources abroad, is valid. The country should be held accountable.
    2
  2229.  @bizzyfoshizzy6093  You don't use shampoo and soap?

  2230. So the evictions did occur for "security reasons". Were the villages accused of terrorism? How credible were these claims? Considering that African governments tends to be corrupt and paranoid, I'm willing to presume that the villages weren't in the wrong, perhaps. Feel free to prove me wrong.
    2
  2231. Putin needs to step down the Russian state's imperialism, provocations, hacking, spying and theft. Then we'll leave you alone....
    2
  2232. Conspiracy theorists and selfish anti-state actors are the ones getting away with their determination to undermine the pandemic and spread misinformation to satisfy an individualist agenda which entails figuratively spitting on the vulnerable population. These actors should not be getting away with their amoral advocacy. Trying to turn the blame on those implementing restrictions, working to counter the pandemic, healthcare personnel, and those who are worried about the crises, is exceptionally inhumane.
    2
  2233. No they wouldn't. Corrupt Syran authorities and NGOs would eat it up.
    2
  2234. I 100% agree. The centrist authoritarian position is the most defensible and effective one to have in politics. Sprinkle some right-wing and left-wing balance into the mix, and you're set to create a beautiful society.
    2
  2235.  @Agamemnic  Maybe if you're fine living in close to absolute poverty in a community of broken huts. Don't belittle people for trying to raise the objectively horrific state and low standards of living in most African countries. Every sensible person is in favor of that, and the developed world are literally sending aid and support to reach that goal.
    2
  2236. Feels like war is all that these regions and its residents know. So pointless.
    2
  2237. @Robot The majority that'll use the vaccine won't be children. The vaccine has been approved after regulatory processes. It's not an "experiment on Africa", what sort of delusional comment is that? The West has helped out a TON in Africa and built up their countries, yet you accuse them for "experimenting on Africa"? Even though Africa likely will be the least continent that'll be vaccinated? Disgraceful thing to say.
    2
  2238. Going too hard on Saudi Arabia and MBS by the US would be like shooting oneself in the foot to virtue-signal towards people who already have a critical attitude towards countries such as Saudi Arabia. The anti-terror operations in the middle east and the ties with an important ally would deteriorate by going too hard, after a released report with information that we received from the CIA in ~2018...
    2
  2239. He's already engaging like a dictator, having implemented 40 presidential orders in like 10 days, not listening to anybody but himself or his advisors, and barely answering journalists' questions. Hint; these presidential orders weren't beneficial at all, besides the coronavirus response I suppose.
    2
  2240. If middle east can't shape peace deals, maintain order and avoid threatening the rest of the world, some form of intervention will always be inevitable. Perhaps realize that the USA and Western interventionism isn't the problem, but rather the sources and enabling factors that leads to interference in the first place. Something to think about.
    2
  2241. Is it racist to arrest, detain and render an aggressive individual harmless? Sounds like you've got no clue about the case of Floyd.
    2
  2242. US officials at the Treasury, governmental representatives and officials around the world with secret insight into the Russian state apparatus and officials tied to Putin, is anecdotal and speculative, sure, but still quite persuasive. Russia is known for being a corrupt oligarchy. Why would you trust Putin or choose the skeptical side after hearing all these indications? I'm sure Putin's net worth is inflated by slightly farfetched guesses, but it's very likely that he's extremely affluent.
    2
  2243. Surveillance is used to monitor every citizen, including politicians. Are you suggesting that every politician should be tracked and broadcast on a public monitor for society to see or something? Not even citizens are exposed to such surveillance. There's a problem with the rule of law not applying to everyone in certain countries dominated by tyrannical governments. But corruption by officials is usually even rooted out in these countries, by the use of surveillance or other methodology. Some countries should definitely step it up in that regard to make sure that justice prevails everywhere.
    2
  2244. The industry could be regulated so only trustable actors can purchase and use the equipment. There'll always be smuggling by rogue states purchasing equipment after being bribed, but more oversight could certainly limit that.
    2
  2245. A stable and responsible state must use surveillance to protect the country and its citizens, gather evidence for judicial cases and remove any threats. There's an issue with corrupt governments abusing the technology, but that'll always occur. As a whole, the benefits outweighs the negative aspects.
    2
  2246. You do know that these comments with no substance are inviting racism where there are none, right? Are you looking for people to call out India's low rate of toilet usage (~100m+ citizens do not have a toilet installed and are unwilling to use one), or what are you realistically trying to achieve with this?
    2
  2247. Latin America, South America and Africa are very similar in that regard.
    2
  2248. They're reporting on news. They literally reported on the South African protests an hour ago. Why should people only report on news if they occupy the 'right background' according to your own preferences? These sort of dismissals aren't valid IMO.
    2
  2249. Do you even know how the organization works? The UN is represented by almost every country. Its representatives can't just do whatever they want.
    2
  2250. Every country needs a strong and protected border to prevent outsider threats from entering. We don't live in a fairy tale with unicorns. Some may think that we ought to, or even that we do, but that's a pipe-dream.
    2
  2251. Maybe because they made the vaccines and because they carry the world? The world isn't a socialist structure and will never be.
    2
  2252. This is the last thing we need. Alleged failed and unsatisfactory vaccines during a pandemic that keeps on growing deadlier and deadlier..
    2
  2253. Such an insane lineup of politicians. This is almost always the case in democracies. You've got millions of citizens, yet you barely manage to get a stable and sensible politician to run for president. Says a whole lot about the populace, the system, and perhaps humanity as a whole.
    2
  2254. They've reported on it several times.
    2
  2255. Always has been.
    2
  2256. Partially that, but also because some people don't believe in taxation. USA's success wasn't built on that. Going too far could stifle competition, ROI and growth. Taxing the rich to make sure they pay their fair share should of course be done. But in a sensible manner.
    2
  2257. Luckily Poland will lock them up now for their evil advocacy and misanthropic disrespect for human life under the slogan of hedonistic liberation.
    2
  2258. Bunch of fools. The kid had a gun, were out at night, and ran away from the police. Clearly a threat that had to be handled quickly, as the police did. Where were his parents? Who in their right mind can defend a kid running around with a gun? Every single time, people are protesting and rioting against a police officer who had to do their job. They're rioting in favor of criminals.
    2
  2259. zzzz...another druggie. Where do you find these angels all the time, BLM? Such stand-up citizens.
    2
  2260.  @jediclarity8662  He hates criminals, presumably. As every sensible person does. Blacks aren't killed due to their race, but do to their ACTIONS. The sooner people realize that, the better for everyone.
    2
  2261. The price of the farmers' produce won't decrease, but rather increase or stay intact. Yet millions are protesting and even rioting to withdraw the laws. Ignorant celebrities abroad, Rihanna, Greta, and others, are supporting the rioters. Hope the Indian government puts an end to this swiftly.
    2
  2262. I don't get why people who are politically active visit these countries where you're likely to get jailed and penalized for standing up against the government. Especially if you're part of the quotas that tend to lead to an arrest and if you're critical of the government.
    2
  2263. Houthis won't stop until they take over Yemen or until they're dead. That's been clear. They're trying to end the blockade so their war tactics can be stepped up.
    2
  2264. Because socialists thinks that it's a serious and effective policy to engage in price fixing, manipulating the free market and its driving forces, and artificially inflating wages without taking into account the implications, such as job losses, layoffs and leading the path into protectionism.
    2
  2265. The British coronavirus mutation seems to be 100% more deadly than the initial coronavirus strain that spread in Wuhan. And now the vaccine against these viruses is suspected to result in blood clots. Oh god..
    2
  2266. UK were never leaving the world and every party wanted a decent trade agreement. Strange how everyone believed that the worst case and almost macabre scenario would turn out to be true. Of course it wouldn't. The fearmongering propaganda that turned out to be entirely false should serve as a lesson for humanity.
    2
  2267. Why do you want to punish those who arrests and cleans the streets from felons?
    2
  2268. It'll be costly and may have societal costs. But Bangladesh is already poor, broken, and prevails by a hostile religion. So I presume they may be enriched by receiving a cheap labor force that mostly shares their dogmatic values. For example, Bangladeshi citizens rioted against Macron (the French president) because Macron tried to condemn and stomp out islamic terrorism. Let that sink in.
    2
  2269.  @mixyguy6  "fascist" lmaooo
    2
  2270. Bombed areas with militants and radicalized individuals, along with some innocent civilians? Yes. If the goal is to neutralize any threat, that's the usual way to go. But the main goal of Myanmar's military seem to be to go after the rioters and protesters, and anyone with ties to the prominent kingpins.
    2
  2271. Kind of topic, man. But if we're going to talk about what you just raised: Why not improve and streamline the school system instead of decreasing the number of days that students goes to school on a weekly basis? Why not counter bullying by force instead of decreasing classroom presence? Seems like you don't suggest going after the core of the issue and the factors that leads to the problems at schools. I totally agree with the prohibitionist policy on smoking and drugs though. Must be implemented everywhere. The hedonist nightlife in the West is nothing but a recipe for disaster for people's health, expectations in life and stance on relationship, as well.
    2
  2272. The population better be ready to vaccinate then. Immunity is going to take ages and perhaps not be reached ever if voluntary programs is imposed everywhere.
    2
  2273. These people better not have voted for Maduro. But plenty of Venezuelans have done so. If they keep voting for state sanctioned oppression, economic downturn and instability, this is what you get...
    2
  2274. Schools and its curriculums can be fixed and improved. Homeschooling isn't the answer to a flawed school system.

  2275. The last type of commodity that you'd associate Iraq with.

  2276. Another completely useless conflict that hurts customers and the world's relations.

  2277.  @yorgenibnstrangle3072  Myanmar don't believe that they're citizens. And the army has had enough of them. They won't take them in.
    2
  2278. Most countries around the world has been part of evil stories. The countries that dogmatically believe in God has committed so much more wrongdoings than the USA, but you wouldn't recognize that, right?
    2
  2279. Bouldering/climbing seems like a fun sport and a physically strenuous activity worth implementing for the Olympics. Way better than starting to incorporate e-sports such as gaming...

  2280. The country was always authoritarian and had a desire to control the population. That won't change much after this coup.
    2
  2281. Why would he wait over 3 decades to do that
    2
  2282. What's wrong with a technocracy? Lol. Do you mean a tech-based society? Tyranny doesn't per definition have to be bad if it's used for good, to prevent elements and actors that may jeopardize the country. I'm sure every Al Jazeera viewer from Africa and the Middle East would agree upon that notion. Maybe even Westerners. These dystopian depictions never turns out to be true in reality. Hyperboles everywhere.
    2
  2283. Socialist governments shooting poor people. That's the narrative, at least. Oh god 🤦‍♂️
    2
  2284. If Palestine's authorities spent time on raising their people from poverty rather than bailing out terrorists, enforcing outdated religious laws, and threatening Israel on the daily, things would likely be much better for everyone. But nope, status quo will continue and the ignorant will blame Israel for every single own failure.

  2286.  @gregorymalchuk272  Using renewables without releasing any emissions creates far less pollution than burning straws, no matter where it's burned.
    2
  2287. The predecessor who governed the Olympic games organizing committee were completely right with his comments about women. Maybe a bit clumsily expressed, but notice how nobody has countered or managed to object to anything he said. He ended up treated like a burned witch, as per usual whenever someone states the truth. Remarkable that this managed to occur in a traditionally conservative country such as Japan too.
    2
  2288. Why are they not sent back to their homes? Why are their government not caring for them? Don't let poverty and misery proliferate around the world, and fix the fallible structures that caused these people to emigrate in the first place. That should be of highest priority.
    2
  2289. Seems like Qatar is ranked quite far down on the death per capita rate. As in, they have managed the crisis well. Although I don't know how transparent they've been. How accurate the tracking is. When it comes to Russia, they're also quite far down when it comes to deaths per capita. But info from these politicizes and corrupt states must be taken with a grain of salt.
    2
  2290. Seriously though, how is Assad even handling the coronavirus? Resorting to chemicals attack to wipe it out? :') The terrorism that Assad and his regime has let grow and muster in the country is in a way almost as dangerous as this pandemic itself. Shame that the illegitimate regime never seem to cease and re-evaluate.
    2
  2291. Nope. He wants Iran to stop their love for destruction. He wants Iran to stop threatening the world. To stop being a hostile, spiteful and volatile nation with risky nuclear weapons. Iran is a threat to the world with their foreign and domestic policies, which is why something has to be done. Don't stand behind the culprits and evil actors when there's better and more dignified alternatives.
    2
  2292.  @Saswata_97  Venezuela has implemented lots of socialist policies, price fixing, printing cash, preventing free trade, etc. That has caused their downfall, along with cemented corruption and an overall bad rule. Putting all eggs in one basket (reliance on oil). Russia does also have its problems, but it's not socialist anymore. It's a state capitalist and mixed economy, yes, but dropping the socialist route was a smart decision which has led to growth. Russia still has a weak economy due to their corruption and focus on building an aggressive army rather than spending on infrastructure/stimulative measures, but that's another topic.
    2
  2293.  @tyrionlannister6459  What does a dictatorship have to do with how an economy is doing, standards of living and stability? Why would you care about democracy if a country is prospering with such a system?
    2
  2294. Around 80% brits are ready and willing to take it according to surveys made. UK has been hit hard, so I can understand that there's a desperation to open up, save the vulnerable and get past this mess. Good luck guys
    2
  2295.  @blade5896  99,9% of scientists states that human behavior results in the increasing temperatures and ongoing climate change. So no, this person is spreading misinformation. One could wonder why. Because of pure ignorance? Because of living on the fossil industry's payroll? To provoke?

  2296. Lin Wood was suspended from his social medias and basically lost all his credibility when he started talking about Pence and WH members. Is he still freely out there? His public presence is at least largely brushed off entirely.

  2297. The innocent civilians? No. The rebels that illegally has seized cities, kidnapped people to take them as hostages, and vaporized civilians, are the ones at fault here, and the ones being targeted militarily.
    2
  2298. Success. 🤣
    2
  2299. This is the most irresponsible and unfair action that a serious court could take. Shame on the Supreme Court. Further questions and suspicion will arise from this. Fewer and fewer will acknowledge Biden's presidency. Why not try and investigate the case?

  2304. This guy's really keen on signalling sympathy for the domestic troublemaking quasi-terror movement known as BLM. An anarchist and racist decentralized organization looking to release and protect criminals, force one group of people to assist another problematic group of people, and equalize society through marxist train of thought. Shameful that everyone bought into the nonsense. This sports journalist, Donald MIralle, doesn't seem like a bad guy nor a guy with bad intentions. But I think he's misguided in speaking positively about a subversive movement with malicious goals.

  2305. Is it an insult to criticize China for covering up the pandemic and through negligence killing off 2020 and over a million people by letting a virus spread? Is it an insult to criticize China for spreading fake news about Australian military? Get a grip.
    2
  2306. One feature of dictatorships: You don't have to go through several institutions and political parties with different interests when making long-lasting decisions. The disadvantage: You may get a corrupt, mad and hostile leader without favoring the populace's interests.
    2
  2307. Why are they hugging each other and almost trying to infect each other with the virus? No face masks, no caution. Is this what happens when most of your population is below the age of 25? And what's up with the fighting that broke out between politicians in parliament, leading to a small bloodbath? Not great role models there...
    2
  2308. Anti vaxxers and corona deniers belongs in a jail cell for spreading misinformation and jeopardizing public health. Shame on you.
    2
  2309. Meeting with election officials and negotiating the disputed election results in cases where suspected irregularities or electoral fraud has occurred is perfectly reasonable. Any party would've done this, especially if the comepetition were so even in several states. What'll be interesting the incoming weeks is whether some contested states with a Republican controlled legislature, chamber and state, will lead to certified results or if the results will be questioned, leading to further litigation, recounts, or different electors being sent to the federal state.
    2
  2310. The parliament? The opposition taking over the presidency you mean?
    2
  2311. Imagine comparing an imperialist rogue state with no interests in mind other than their own, Turkey, with the strongest military on earth with intentions to assist the globe to remove threats, the United States.
    2
  2312. As long as the rebel groups are kept in check and keeps on being rendered harmless by the presence of local or international troops, this is a decent decision for those looking to decrease military spending, end foreign wars and pull our troops back.
    2
  2313. Corona, cartels, crime, the worst murder rate (almost) in the world, gangs acting like the mafia, infiltration of criminal gangs in the government, and economic downturn. Mexico has a LOT to deal with. Perhaps step one could be to remove the left-wing president that has contributed to a preservation of the societal flaws that don't want to cease.
    2
  2314. Valid observations, pretty much spot on. But these plans are just for the end of the year. It's the first stage and the first batch of vaccination. I assume the ordered vaccines will be increased exponentially by the beginning of next year, if the funds and resources are there.
    2
  2315. The vaccine will almost only be used in Africa, because that's where the disease spread. And no, most of the researchers were, as usual, from america or europe from what I've heard. Being affected by the virus doesn't mean that you're doing the research lol
    2
  2316. The PM's excuse for terrorism is alarming, but quite expected when you look at who leads this cabinet. A left-winger in favor of a planned economy who've appeased socialists in the country. The PM's (not the president's) comments: "In May 2021, the Office of the Prosecutor Against Terrorism opened an investigation against Guido Bellido for the alleged crime of "apology to terrorism", following an interview where he spoke about the Shining Path : "The country was in a disastrous state in 1980. Some Peruvians took the wrong path. Are they Peruvians or not? They have rights. What do you have against the members of the Shining Path?" he had said in an interview with an online media" As for what type of group the Shining Path is, it's a communist organization that uses violence to achieve their goals. Designated as terrorists by plenty of states, according to Wikipedia: "The Communist Party of Peru – is a revolutionary communist party and guerrilla group in Peru following Marxism–Leninism–Maoism and Gonzalo Thought. " "When it first launched during the internal conflict in Peru in 1980, its goal was to overthrow the state by guerrilla warfare and replace it with a New Democracy. The PCP-SL believed that by establishing a dictatorship of the proletariat, inducing a cultural revolution, and eventually sparking a world revolution, they could arrive at full communism. Their representatives stated that the then-existing socialist countries were revisionist, and the Shining Path was the vanguard of the world communist movement. The PCP-SL's ideology and tactics have influenced other Maoist insurgent groups such as the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Centre) and other Revolutionary Internationalist Movement-affiliated organizations. The Peruvian guerrillas were peculiar in that they had a high proportion of women; 50% of the combatants and 40% of the commanders were women. " "The Shining Path has been widely condemned for its brutality, including violence deployed against peasants, trade union organizers, competing Marxist groups, elected officials and the general public. The Shining Path is regarded as a terrorist organization by Peru, Japan, the United States, the European Union, and Canada, which consequently prohibit funding and other financial support for the group." I can see why the new Peruvian cabinet were questioned. The left-leaning socialist policies that the current president is advocating for does not have a good track record. Hopefully the country doesn't fall into a deeper recession and economic downturn.

  2317.  @irritatedanglosaxon1705  The heck are you talking about? The virus originated from China, not the US. Is someone paying you to lie or have your illusionary biases taken over?

  2318. Law-abiding lives matter.

  2319. Dems and Republicans in unison has a deep-seated contemptuous attitude for China, they're in the same boat. Not much will change. Maybe a slightly deescalated trade war.

  2320. UN is represented by plenty of countries. They can't out of the blue do whatever they want or dictate international relations..
    2
  2321. Why should Myanmar be forced to take high-risk entities?
    2
  2322. Agreed. I think many of these addiction cases has been created by your first point. An unfettered market where doctors and psychiatrists are encouraged to prescribe pills when they shouldn't, which leads to hard dependency on these drugs, and a bunch of complications/side-effects.
    2
  2323.  Hamid Hussein  Why are the non-feminists and non-human rights activists in jail and why should the UN speak out for them? What if they're murderers and terrorists? Should the UN speak out for them to satisfy your seemingly invalid attempts of "hypocrisy"?
    2
  2324. Assimilation policies and reeducation can be needed to make sure that every societal demographic adopts the right values. Systematic slave labor isn't occurring as far as I know, at least not directed against innocent people.
    2
  2325.  @hankxu3457  China's policy of "socialism with Chinese characteristics" is basically state capitalism where a vibrant private market is encouraged. The type of policy that sort of exists in the West. So nobody should be under the illusion that communism had anything to do with this. China has renounced and abandoned communism, at least economically, long ago, because it failed.

  2326. Probably because cremation isn't that big of a deal, and because not every muslim or theocratic country is the same.

  2327. Banning drugs altogether would be needed. But yes, that'd be effective and preferred. But why not be more creative instead of posting the same statement every single time?
    2
  2328. Enforce zero tolerance against corruption and build up a (temporary?) police state and you'll retrieve national security and peace. It's all that can be done if you want to solve these societal flaws where the mafia, criminals and illegal networks wreaks havoc.
    2
  2329. Why does this guy annoy me so much? I'm on his political side and all..
    2
  2330. Short answer: No. Sweden's approach is condemned by most countries and all is pointing towards the strategy being a complete failure. If you're looking for inhumane mass death, apply Sweden's approach. If you're looking to save your population and mitigate the effects of the outbreak, enforce quarantine systems, mass test, digitally track citizens, close down travel/unnecessary companies, prevent gatherings of more than 2 individuals throughout citizens outside trips, and implement financial packages for struggling families/companies.
    2
  2331. Precisely. And I don't like the idea that we have to pull down statues every decade or two just because the cultural values subjectively change.

  2332. @ozark Better get used to losing then!

  2333. Grow up lol

  2334. Yeah, that'd deliver another huge blow to the ridiculous, radical, and emotionally charged #meetoo-movement.
    2
  2335. For acting professionally and respecting the democratic system of due process? What a despicable thing to say.
    2
  2336. America would be a whole lot more civilized and stable if Fuentes' advocacy were implemented into policy. No division, no barbarism, no decadence, and a peaceful society would be established. A structure that favors law-abiding civilians and those willing to assimilate and contribute to the nation.

  2337. Stop spamming

  2338. Billions of dollars could be saved, a large part of the current food production could be toned down, and food shortages could be eradicated if all forms of waste were consumed (prior to it becoming waste) and allocated properly. People need to take care of their resources better.
    2
  2339. You left out China's foreign policy and coercive expansion at the coast of Equador, at South China Sea, their relation with Taiwan, their support of rogue dictatorships, and their occasional unwillingness to seek peace and reconciliation. Fun bias there though. I'm sure some may buy into it, for a while.
    2
  2340. Meh, who cares. A criminal got hit and the world is now a better place. Sure, the police should take it easy and record all of their steps when serving the public, but this criticism should be launched when the police actually has done something wrong. In the George Floyd situation, that isn't the case.
    2
  2341.  @iamwritingrightnow8217  Wouldn't expect right-wing parties to be so incredibly weak and selfish. Aren't they supposed to be collectivist and precautionary when it comes to handling external threats? Libertarianism and right-wing individualism is repulsive.
    2
  2342.  @soopsalsal  You'd be a fool for blindly not believing everything coming out of China. The situation has been investigated by Western employees and journalists, not just Chinese state officials. We know that the country handled itself well and managed successfully when they took the pandemic seriously (after having censored/ignored it for a month or so). That's undisputed.
    2
  2343. So Daniel, how do you suggest that crime is solved. How is it ensured that people don't end up on the wrong path? How is the overrepresentation in crime by certain demographics handled?
    2
  2344. This is strict assimilation. Prevents infiltration of unwanted values in the country, upholds stability, and ensures conformity. I don't like China's usual policies or adventures, but it's hard to deny that this works. And it's done for a reason, to hinder terrorism. Letting the individuals work may technically benefit all parts too. The West should interfere here.
    2
  2345. The difference is that these people are being integrated to society, won't be killed, and aren't treated as harshly as under extermination camps in Soviet/Germany.
    2
  2346. So annoying how these characters keep making everything about their unconventional and high-risk interests in the bedroom. Why not focus on policy? On what actually matters? On decency?

  2347. Not another disease... Why haven't WION, the Indian-centered channel, reported on this yet?

  2348. I hoped and thought that Johnson's administration would manage to get some things right and favor a right-wing agenda. How wrong I were.
    2
  2349. Just admit that you'd thrash her no matter what she says. I don't think she's appealing to people such as yourself, but rather towards those in the middle, those who've been hurt by some of her lies, and to clean her slate. We don't need centrist right-wingers anyway. We need people and politicians that are willing to make changes and act drastic (legally) to improve the country no matter how contentious it is for centrist republicans or leftists.
    2
  2350. She's pushing back against the left-leaning turn that the democrats has taken. Against the bias and violence glorification that dems and leftists has expressed the past years, while pretending to be on the side of reason, civility and peace. Just look at the love for BLM. Antifa. And the war tensions encouraged by dems, journalists and corporations on Jan. 6, after the same type of entities were quiet throughout the entirety of 2020 when riots swept the country.
    2
  2351. These power hungry witch hunters are desperately trying to remove the right to run for president, because they've tricked the media and the populace by making things up about Trump's statements and own intents that in no way shape or form were impeachable. If Trump's actions justifies impeachment, the whole of Congress ought to be impeached. These representatives are spitting on the constitution, the rule of law and due process. Despicable.
    2
  2352. That's social media. Most social medias are toxic and useless when it comes to holding serious debate and publishing truthful information.
    2
  2353.  @droobydoobiedoo768  Says the bootlicker of a different political quadrant. A quadrant that never has led to a civilized society. Police brutality can be wonderful if it's used against the right type of culprits, which it is in 99,9999999% of times.
    2
  2354.  @p1xae102  The guy is a traumatic experience himself. He's the one who've resisted arrest plenty of times. Committed crimes. Abused drugs. Led a toxic lifestyle. But yeah, blame the cops. How stupid can someone be.
    2
  2355. Should Facebook take responsibility to prevent young individuals from voluntarily sending frivolous and naked pictures of themselves to other randomized users? How the heck would that even be detected? What weird story to bring up as an attempt to portray Facebook as a company that don't take "Illegal content" seriously. Illegal content and risky content for the young should be limited, but the young girl's story doesn't convince anyone of that.
    2
  2356. It's hard to take responsibility unless you're willing to bar you children from vising social medias or using the internet altogether. That might be good for them though, something that many more parents should do.
    2
  2357. They love to talk and talk. And talk. 😊

  2358. Wonder if this is a sign for a disheartening and unpreferred development in Afghanistan now when new deals has been made and the US are slowly leaving. Hope not..

  2359. If you've read any objective article about Boeing and all the intervention that has been made lately, you'll be aware that a whole lot of changes is in place now.

  2360. How? Are HR organizations supporting the Houthis?
    2
  2361. Phobia for needles? Old and frail? Vaccines are safe and effective in the majority of cases. Long-term side-effects that we can't establish right now may pop up for some, but for anyone who've followed the destruction caused by this pandemic, the benefits outweighs the small number of potential risks.
    2
  2362. Racists and discriminatory individuals focusing on race and people's genders to determine whether or not they will look up to someone. Disgraceful. Of course BBC is publishing something like this. Pure propaganda and just divisive content.
    2
  2363. Boris is really unpredictable. A libertarian up until he nearly died by the corona because of his own obesity, then he decided to change his mind (good). He implemented one of the harshest lockdowns in Europe (valid decision at the time) even though he tends to claim to love freedom and prevent tyranny. Planning to criminalize intrusive demonstrations (can be a good thing if you value stability and oppose most protests these days) even though the UK police force is weak/disarmed and barely can defend themselves because that's the Western way of doing things. Exaggerating the few positive things about Brexit, downplaying the negatives. You never know what you get from this guy. He's criticized within his own party from all sides.
    2
  2364. Promiscuity, extramarital affairs and bad conduct by women (and some men) should certainly be punished and deterred. That's good. But it shouldn't affect innocent children.
    2
  2365. Navalny is a civic nationalist from what i've gathered. Proud of his country, his people, and willing to protect it by force. Guess how the West usually would label such a person? As a WWII enabling rayzcist with inhumane stances. Guess why the West supports him either way?
    2
  2366. During 2021, hopefully. 1 day to go!
    2
  2367. Impeachment means absolutely nothing these days. Nothing. Good job on playing political games and abusing your power. Every person involved in this should be held accountable.

  2368. ~100+ active volcanoes in Indonesia. Might be time to move away one's residents from these areas, and abandon them to let nature take its course?
    2
  2369. Not for everyone. It's become about peace, community, showing appreciation to what you have and caring for the less fortunate.
    2
  2370. It's easy to abide by this new law, really. Don't publish malicious and derogatory information about the police with the intent to defame or harm them. Keep it objective. Publish information or footage about what happened in a certain situation. All of this will keep you out of trouble and avoid fines. Nobody should be able to humiliate the police force just because they disagree with police officers' acts of intervening and arresting heavy criminals. 99,9% of police officers are respectable and does their job properly. The 0,1% are handled.
    2
  2371. They're improving in a whole lot of ways lately. Proud of France and Macron. Wouldn't have thought that they would strengthen the police and crush terrorism so rapidly and fiercely. Especially in such a short period of time.
    2
  2372. No, it's your that are spreading conspiracies by minimizing the pandemic, opposing vaccination/restrictions and not caring about the effects that this pandemic has had. Had it been a normal wedding without safety measures being adhered to, criticism would be directed at the couple, for valid resons. What does that have to do with a "conspiracy"?
    2
  2373.  @gonnabeok  Absorb your own advice and show some respect.

  2374. This reporter must be satisfied when looking from an entertainment perspective and exciting things happening. There's no shortage of unforeseen incidents occurring here. Bet it requires a long shower after having been doused by these chemicals and high pressured water.
    2
  2375. To Biden's credit, he always blesses the troops at the end of his speeches and seems to have a profound love and concern for his military. I can respect that. What I cannot understand is why he allowed this completely humiliating and deadly situation to occur in Afghanistan. The scenario at the airport and for the US troops/diplomats/civilians has been the equivalent to a ticking bomb for very long and could've been avoided.
    2
  2376. Why would it be fake news? No, it is not. Pence took the vaccine to signal that it's clever, effective and that it's nothing for the conspiracy theorists to be afraid of.
    2
  2377.  Follow the howl  Nice cop-out, or conspiracy, considering that there's no provable or persuasive data to back up your guess. Why is the African continent in a cemented mess? Because of the racism instigated by the African populace? Or because of the "evil Western" scapegoat? It has to do with a flawed culture, different intellectual levels due to various factors (the point of past oppression/poverty may play a part here), single parent households created by an irresponsible culture and external enabling factors, and because the state in many of these countries hasn't ensured that the population strives for greatness. A lack of a zero tolerance policy is also an issue.

  2378.  @regu6582  I think it's the microphone, sound technology and editing that results in the bugs, not YouTube's video player.

  2379. AOC is a liar and an oppressor and cannot be trusted. She literally accused Cruz and almost every republican for "trying to murder her", even though she weren't int he same building as the one that was stormed, even though the authorities has recognized that murderous intent wasn't involved, even though the rioters for the most part were completely unarmed, and even though republicans has NOTHING to do with the storming.
    2
  2380.  @AnalEyesAnalyzeAnalLies-666  Exactly. These individuals should be locked up for evil immorality and advocating for the worst act imaginable.

  2381. Stop murdering your children that you brought to this world. HOW can that be so much to ask for?

  2382. That's not your average everyday job that you think about when physical efforts are involved. Picking these cones must be challenging and fruitful. And many are appreciating what it leads to in the end. Respect.
    2
  2383. @Ahmed Jones Meh. Fighting jihadism and Islamic terrorism is crucial to upholding a stable country. The army's violations are unacceptable, but their determination to stamp out anti-societal radicalism is understandable.
    2
  2384. America's "democracy" were crippled when every "democrat" decided to staunchly oppose every attempt of investigating the cases of fraud, irregularities, mail-carriers throwing away ballots, election workers not acting transparent, felons voting, and so on. Just because your center-left candidate got into power, doesn't improve that he saved democracy. His attempts of steamrolling the opposition by implementing dozens of executive orders signals the opposite.
    2
  2385. Indeed. This arrest had nothing to do with race, but rather with someone rightfully reporting Floyd for once again having committed a felony. The police did their job, and the world is now a much better place. However, the police sadly is punished and dragged in the dirt when he should've been handed a shiny trophy.
    2
  2386. Half of the country won't ever go out to protest and show antagonism to the army. Just like in Hong Kong, the majority will be silent and supportive of the new rule.
    2
  2387. Even if their conditions may improve through these proposed changes?
    2
  2388. ..what? The english speaking world and its respective advanced countries are rooting out poverty and assisting the poor part of the world to minimize its presence by spending hundreds of millions dollars annually. That's the opposite of having an "appetite for poverty porn".
    2
  2389. Hesitating from giving in to the temptation of enriching yourself at the expense of society is too difficult for many of the officials in these undeveloped countries, unfortunately.
    2
  2390. That's an entirely separate issue though. The initiative of fishermen going green should be welcomed.

  2392. Feels good to naturally be part of the tall demographic. The 6'3 club that many perceives as superior 😏
    2
  2393. Unless body alteration involves getting in shape and losing weight, of course. Or throwing away unhealthy habits. That should all be encouraged. But artificial intervention and cosmetic surgery should be forbidden.
    2
  2394. Is it that hard to abstain from partying and mindlessly interacting in close vicinity of others during a pandemic...?
    2
  2395.  @lks6248  It does exist. China is state capitalist that largely have abandoned their communist principles. They still love supporting actual socialist/communist states though, which is destructive for the whole world. China is prosperous today, at least way more compared with their past, because they adopted free market reforms, capitalism, free trade with the rest of the world, and economic/monetary policy that actually works.
    2
  2396. Because she has had it.
    2
  2397. Yeah, these are the type of people that wouldn't blink before stealing, murdering, plundering, and engaging in severe criminal actions at the expense of others health and welfare. Like, give me a break. These people don't deserve any sympathy. They are were they belong.
    2
  2398. We need more of that across the world. Letting humanity ascend to a next level and transcend into the most prosperous life imaginable, by prohibiting activities and substances that infringes upon public health. By making sure that society is enriched, not polluted or letting it decay. By ensuring that everyone abides by recommendations that benefits oneself and others. Everybody would be so much better off if this scientific, secular and rational policy prevailed.
    2
  2399. Drastic times calls for desperate measures. At least you can make your own schedule, live relatively free, do what you want, enjoy tasty food, and know that you are protecting yourself and fellow human beings from a virus. It's only temporary, as well.
    2
  2400. Do they not have protection, security guards and bulletproof vests? That's required in these countries where doing normal things can lead to a death sentence...

  2401. Apart from his climate policy and indifference towards corona, his general politics are great. And so his he. Gonna miss this man greatly.
    2
  2402. 80% of brits are positive and welcoming in vaccine development and an official vaccination program. 80% says they'll vaccinate themselves. Yet if you read these comment sections full of skeptics, you'd get a wildly different perception. Maybe it isn't only brits that are skeptic though since BBC has an international audience.
    2
  2403.  @shirleypatel5292  That was uncalled for!
    2
  2404. That some cultures can't be treated as equally beautiful and harmless as others, a viewpoint that many progressives, postmodernists, marxists and feminists has been opposing? Or that governments are failing? That ritualistic superstition and dogmatic religion can't be tolerated? That the world should help out these countries to stamp out the rebels? Lots to be learned.
    2
  2405. it's quite widely covered actually if you're an avid news observer. I've heard about this from like 10 different reports the past days. But I'm very active and observe like 15+ different outlets, so. Something drastic has to be done to handle these psychopathic militants. The governments has clearly lost control.
    2
  2406. That is obviously not the goal, but if it is, GOOD. We need people to show more concern and empathetic notions when handling other innocent people. When responding to threats, pandemics and risks to our country. A passive and indifference populace is a significant danger.
    2
  2407. Are there any leaders more insecure and rambling than this man?
    2
  2408. If freedom involves anti-vaccination, anti-masks, and anti-restriction notions during a destructive pandemic, freedom would be a useless and cold concept.
    2
  2409. There's way too much baseless skepticism and defiant attitudes against a vaccine. Wonder why. I can see that people are skeptical towards a vaccine that still hasn't been tested enough or officially approved, but that'll be done prior to releasing it on the market. Rare side-effects can of course always arise in a small number of subjects, but surely the benefits outweighs the risks.
    2
  2410. Accusations of bullying has been frequent in the UK parliament, governmental cabinet and by these prominent officials. What is it with the presumptuous civilized culture in UK and its interconnection with bullying? I don't get it.
    2
  2411. And the beginning of americas gradual decay and demoralization is initiated.
    2
  2412. Biden won't push against the trouble, he'll be the source and enabler of it. Let's look back in a few years and we'll see reality. Reversing track may be too late at that point though, with the cultural/demographic changes, criminals on the streets, weakened electoral laws, establishment of an immoral society and the takeover by those with bad intentions.
    2
  2413. They didn't have any these prolonged governmental crises during the 30s 😂

  2415. Oh god..who CARES!!

  2416. Relationships isn't as dangerous as this pandemic. But yes, abnormal and unhealty relationships should definitely be forbidden. By force.
    2
  2417. Tell that to a therapist. Not everything is a CIA operation. People won't take you seriously if that's the go-to explanation for every case of instability or chaos occurring in the world. Stay on topic and tone down the conspiracies.
    2
  2418. Prescriptions to handle HIV should be made forbidden. Why? Because it leads to the maintenance of conduct that results in you contracting many viruses. A conduct associated with misery, addiction and other issues. This should be clear to anyone who've looked into this field.
    2
  2419. Lol, in what way?
    2
  2420. Let China handle their own residents however they like. Don't intervene. Don't start these hurtful diplomatic disputes. Focus on your own country's and people's issues.

Feel free to consume the food that don't meet supermarket standards then, such as soft and decayed apples, mangos, oranges, bananas and pepper ;) Jokes aside, bringing attention to the immense food waste globally is a worthy cause. All forms of waste and pointless production/consumption should be mitigated.
    2
  2426. If you know anything about Iran and how it leadership operates, you'll be fully aware of why it isn't appropriate for such an unstable and predatory country to develop and build up a nuclear arsenal. But ok, let's blame Western propaganda and downplay the real threats.
    2
  2427. And change the current dependency on fossil fuels into something sustainable across the globe. Along with upholding our high standards of living in the West by consuming less. Capitalism is built and made effective by mass producing and consuming. While we need growth, it must be achieved sustainably.
    2
  2428. Root our excessive suppression and terrorism? Root our the sponsorship of global militias?
    2
  2429. How much money did Gaddafi launder, steal and trade with now again? ~$100m? No, never mind. His net worth was like $200B, and the volumes used/traded must've exceeded that. Crazy.
    2
  2430. 3:31, the heck sort of language, phrase, accent and pronunciation is that? lol
    2
  2431. Libya was basically a little more unstable than Iran is today when looking at leadership. Intervention was probably inevitable in that regard, for global peace and to prevent a corrupt, destabilizing leader from polluting the world too much. The current civil war in crisis in the country isn't a great look or outcome, though.
    2
  2432. All of these police officers from different backgrounds being respected no matter where they come from, and there's still false claims floating around out there about systematic discrimination or racism. Don't let the fraudulent activists get away with their fabrications. You can argue that this video proves nothing, but those claiming that there's engraved discrimination has the burden of proof on them, and are always unable to provide any concrete proof.
    2
  2433. Why shouldn't the case go forward just because the person may have mental complications? Why should journalistic integrity continuously be downsized and set the precedent that illegal tactics to retrieve/publish information won't be prevented, especially if you "suffer from mental complications"?
    2
  2434.  @Ateeq-141  They're not being genocided, but rather assimilated by external pressure from the state. Why? Because of the attacks committed by them against the state and civilians, and because 5,000 of them joined ISIS in Syria. What should China do? Scream "preserve human rights!!!!" like the West and pretend that everything will be fine while ticking bombs are walking around freely in the name of liberty? Nah..only idiot states does that.
    2
  2435. @Yattaman Supporting Trump and serious right-wing policy isn't what a RINO does. Opposing the ability for the republican party to march forward and receive influence is what a RINO does. Giving power to the left is what a RINO does. They should be expelled.
    2
  2436.  @SebiJupanu  Kind of true. His takes and focus has been blatantly one-sided and misleading lately. Putting the guilt on a certain race and excusing the questionable actions of another.
    2
  2437.  @jordancantrell6598  The left enables such individuals to thrive. What has the right done? Established security. Incorporated tax reforms leading to stable prosperity, formed their political standpoints on factual studies, evidence, and apparent biological characteristics. A fair and civilized set of beliefs.
    2
  2438. This comment section is flooded with that slogan to desperately defend NYT, lol. Wouldn't be surprising if the news agency were ready to drop bombshell coverage of RBG after her passing. Can't blame them I guess.
    2
  2439. Is this a parodic comment or are you being serious? If this is your response to the Jan. 6 riots that lasted a few hours, how did you respond to the months of riots that ensued because a criminal died, which resulted in $2B+ in property damage, hundreds of business having to declare bankruptcy, hundreds of plundered/looted stores, hundreds of hurt officers, 20+ deaths, and innocent people being threatened for their life on a massive scale?
    2
  2440. Let him speak instead of cutting him off...jeez.
    2
  2441. Source?
    2
  2442. Antifa should be classified as terrorists and removed from society, but don't blame all the provable issues related to climate change on that small group lol, that's just childish and disinfo. Keep it honest.
    2
  2443. What is it? "Authoritarianism"? Regulations to improve air quality and counter climate change? Good, if so. We need more of that.
    2
  2444. Perfection.
    2
  2445. Greed and egoism taints humanity. That includes your way of thinking, and the affluent people's way of thinking. This is a prime example of why that part of humanity must be regulated away, on the same basis for everyone.
    2
  2446.  @oldred5752  Taking precaution to prevent transmission and implementing provably safe vaccination programs to neutralize the pandemic ASAP, isn't fascist. Well, if it is fascist, fascism is necessary and beautiful.
    2
  2447. Yeah, it's a bit unfortunate. But we're in a pandemic, so it isn't really surprising that the most fundamental services, corporations, and infrastructure is prioritized so society's wheels continue to spin and run as ascribed. Prioritizing those with limited capability and contributions during volatile times is a risk.
    2
  2448. Haven't seen a single 'bad' or 'offensive' comment 2 hours in, with 27+ total comments...lol
    2
  2449. Why can't right-wing people behave civilized and in a non-cringeworthy manner? Ridiculous that posting cringe is what people resorts to.
    2
  2450.  MH Codes  US aren't the ones responsible for creating a bunch of horrific viruses, causing toxic air quality, upholding bad safety standards, and legitimizing an ideology that has killed tens of millions of people...
    2
  2451. Not necessarily. Threats of nuclear war hasn't been present. This is just a precautionary measure to prevent the CCP from spying and infiltrating the US and our allies. China's record of stealing our intellectual property and working against us instead of with us, has to be penalized.
    2
  2452. *Prostitutes, not "sex workers", which is a term to normalize the bad lifestyle that these individuals leads. Their demands shouldn't be met in any civilized people, quite the contrary, it should all be discouraged.
    2
  2453. New virus.
    2
  2454. What the heck. Where's the law enforcement to destroy these thugs?
    2
  2455.  @rue_jpeg178  Agree to disagree. Pose a threat to officers/the public, ignore the directives provided to you and engage in unlawful/shady conduct -> Experience ramifications/be neutralized. It's that simple. Follow the laws next time.
    2
  2456. This guy should resign immediately. Supporting a poisonous and irrational movement in broad daylight...wow.
    2
  2457.  william te whata  What does that statement have to do with "warmongering"?
    2
  2458.  @Teemo6544  Disagree heavily.
    2
  2459.  @9神赠礼  Lol, no, they won't be touched. Rioters and terrorists has managed to with free reign pollute the nation the past weeks. What has Trump done? Nothing, really. He's increased the punishment for the act of desecrating statues and designated Antifa as terror groups. But he hasn't forcefully removed those causing chaos on our streets. He hasn't deployed the military. Weak.
    2
  2460. Exactly what I was thinking. Imagine their reactions and the look on their faces when they realize that the population and the federal government are fed up with these toxic actions that polarizes and ruins the country.
    2
  2461. I doubt this administration and Barr's tenure would survive if she manages to flee justice again. 24/7 surveillance systems is likely in place to make sure that another historical mistake isn't repeated.
    2
  2462.  @Zoroaster85  "Iranians aren't impulsive". Says the defender of a nation who shot down a commercial plane earlier this year. The nation who in almost a DPRK-style issues primitive threats on a regular basis because civilized countries won't give in to their imperialist and terorr-sponsoring desires.
    2
  2463.  @PacificPier  Nah, they're using it to attract attention, receive compliments, meet social standards, and to attract partners. It's an effective tool that highlights femininity, cleanness, fertility and youthfulness.
    2
  2464. There were reports that these pangolins could've possibly been transferring the coronavirus to bats or directly in these Chinese wet markets. And they're still being traded? Even a booming trade? That's a bit alarming..
    2
  2465. This type of illegal and risky wildlife trade should be strictly regulated. It's the main potential source of future global pandemics. Authorities should step up their priorities in this department. Good to see that the trade of some species has decreased though.
    2
  2466. A title that couldn't have gone to a worse person, frankly. A person with no judgement who don't take things seriously, uses drugs which impacted stockbuyers prospects, tweets contentious statements that crashed the stock price, refers to antagonists with pejorative words of abuse, and is all around an immature guy with no real care for others. Just look at his stance on the coronavirus. Zero empathy or precaution there.
    2
  2467. @bnawmp. Keep those conspiratorial and fact resistent theories within Russia's/Belarus' borders. We don't need such nonsense in the civilized world.
    2
  2468. Smart. These prohibition policies will benefit the country and its people greatly if it's enforced properly and strictly. I hope it's permanent and spreads across the world.
    2
  2469. Always found this cultural expression incredibly cringeworthy whenever I encounter it. Impossible not to shudder at its stone age connotations. Anyone else feel the same way?
    2
  2470. Interesting how the incident at Notre Dame resulted in billions of donations immediately sent out by philanthropists to repair it and assist everybody involved. I wish people were that charitable to other projects and societal areas that actually matters :')
    2
  2471.  @ezfist9204  Haven't Reuters got a policy in place that encourages journalists to be very careful when using the term "terrorist" though? Reuters are generally objective and a sound organization. Not worth condemning for the most part, compared with the many biased and slanderous news stations out there.
    2
  2472.  @maximevern9746  Yep. There isn't a shortage of conspiratards in the US. These are the effects of universal freedom, people cooking their own made-up superstitions, unfounded theories and idiocy together into one deranged mindset.
    2
  2473. Most health organizations has assumed that the main transmission is by near contact with others, not through walking into infected clouds in the air. This may change future recommendations.
    2
  2474. If there's ways to mitigate these eruptions potential damage, prevent it from happening, or evacuate the people earlier, and the government rejects doing so..you can certainly blame the country and the government. Just like how you can blame China and the city of Wuhan for not informing the world earlier, for censoring those who tried to warn the world, and for letting the Wuhan virus spread from the get-go.
    2
  2475. Burning money to the ground...with the hopes of reaching scientific revelations. Good luck in space.
    2
  2476. Because all details aren't on the table, perhaps. Or because military cooperation doesn't have to be a bad thing. "*Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer*." Perhaps even befriend them!
    2
  2477. By legally arresting a corrupt sanction evader that had broken several laws and helped a hostile nation/corporation without adhering to the rules on the market. As opposed to China that on arbitrary and made-up grounds arrested two Canadians as retribution. You realize that these scenarios aren't the same...right?
    2
  2478. Has a civilized and law-abiding person ever been negatively impacted by police intervention? I doubt it. Police "brutality" is also justified against severe wrongdoers whom can't respect the country, the people or the guidelines that everyone has to follow.
    2
  2479. All parties will be hurt by this. Got a probolem with Facebook? Regulate Facebook and specifically their practises. Don't punish several parties, which these reforms will lead to by tech giants cutting ties with news organizations entirely. I doubt the tech companies will pay a large sum of money upfront for sources that they can host without paying a fee if they choose other credible and popular media sources.
    2
  2480. Why should tech giants have to pay for various media companies existence on these platforms? Do these media corporations not realize that these tech giants aren't dependent on journalists and media sources? Both the tech giants and the media sphere will likely be at a disadvantage if this is implemented.
    2
  2481. Precisely. This movement is hijacked by politization.
    2
  2482. 99% of scientists disagrees with the notion that humans don't impact climate change. That fossil fuels isn't a threat to the world. Why ignore all the evidence? Are you getting paid by petroleum extraction companies? Are you a market fundamentalist? Scared of governmental involvement/regulation?
    2
  2483. Yeah. Releasing emissions at a constant rate and telling each other that climate change will slow down or that the rising temperature, species dying, glaciers/permafrosts melting and air quality deteriorating somehow will be solved, is insanity. A lot of things are being done to counter this development though. At least in some countries. Luckily the climate denialists aren't dominating most places.
    2
  2484. "We're doing this for social justice" Words that you never ought to or should want to express due to its deterring connotations. Using such terms is not how you get people onboard these days.
    2
  2485. We need a leader that aren't in favor of legalizing drugs and enforcing expansive liberalism here. But based off of what Trudeau said in this speech, I agree with him.
    2
  2486. Should food not be approved? What are you talking about? The unhinged complaints here are insane lmfao
    2
  2487. Respecting the elderly and showing concern for the citizens that build this country. Lovely.
    2
  2488. I don't think they are behind this, but they deserve to be berated for what they've done (rioting because some thug died, not accepting the 2016 results, using harassment/libel to denigrate opponents, believing in conspiracies to fit an agenda, defending illiterate economic policy, and standing behind traitorous criminals, to mention a few flaws.
    2
  2489.  @whisperingsage  I wouldn't be surprised. But BLM would advertise their slogans and activism so the democratic party could show their love for their actions against non-empirically proven and the qualitative research-based (half-pseudoscientific data) anecdotes about systematic racism. About how the cops are the bad guys. About how people were forced to do this because 'reasons'. In all seriousness though, this was probably just a blunder.
    2
  2490. ..why should another heavy drug be allowed just because we've negligently normalized and legalized alcohol? I've never understood that 'logic'.
    2
  2491. Imagine the cost per second of this extremely expensive rocket's usage.
    2
  2492. They've been inspired by the dishonest and fabrication tactics used by the left. Remember the laughably false claims about Russian collusion? About crimes having been committed? Believing rumors and accusations to destroy one's opponent while dismissing rumors and accusations when it jeopardized one's side? That has been the lefty approach for years. Modern day and foul McCarthyism, if you will. The difference here is that circumstantial and indicative evidence of occasional voter fraud and cheating in the election exists, which is why GOP is raising these talking points.
    2
  2493. Being a "saint" to the establishment was never the goal. Doing nothing, upholding status quo and paying lip service to all that's wrong with this country is what an establishment politician would've done, sort of like Hillary Clinton or Joseph Biden. So yeah, of course the establishment, mainstream media and the loud parts of the public won't be pleased with someone like Trump.
    2
  2494. Interesting how this topic is focused on so much, you could wonder why that is. So we've seen a recorded rate of ~<100 alleged hate crimes causing death last year. The murder rate on the other hand is at least at ~16,000 the past year. What's that, like a ~15,900% rate difference compared with the 100 of alleged hate crimes? Bringing up these stats results in you having to focus on widely distinct societal demographics. Are the hundreds of injuries and deaths caused by BLM and its associated extremists included whenever these stats of hate crimes are discussed as well?
    2
  2495. "Every year, the Earth is hit by about 6100 meteors large enough to reach the ground, or about 17 every day, research has revealed." "Astronomers estimate there are about 100 thousand million stars in the Milky Way alone." With these figures in mind, it's almost surprising that we don't see concrete signs from Space more frequently.
    2
  2496. Why couldn't large swathes of the Democratic party count to 270 after the 2016 election? They've not conceded that they lost the recent 4 years. They falsely blamed Russia. They made things up. Started investigations on false grounds. They certainly can't assert the high ground here, or ever.
    2
  2497. Wanna know why he allegedly lost? Because of coercive cultural changes. Illegal migrants voting. Criminal convicts voting. Billionaires subsidizing convicts to pay off their debts and vote Blue. What a clean and ethical system huh?
    2
  2498. He shot her to deter the crowd even though she was unarmed and not a threat in any tangible way apart from being part of the crowd. Unbelievable that that was ruled as legal by every authority when it obviously wasn't a clear cut case.
    2
  2499.  @Culperrr  Probably for destabilizing and dividing America by spreading info that could be seen as being on the borderline of libel and fake news.
    2
  2500. It requires 10,000 liters of water to create a pair of jeans. Can the same technique be used there? Seems promising.
    2
  2501.  @biryukovveden5340  US: Breaks the boundaries and the diplomatic contract. US: Thank us for helping you out!
    2
  2502. Huh? USA's GDP in 2020 sat at $20,8T. China's at 15T. What does the figure $5t come from? There's much talk and little action here as well. Let's see the stats and production rates before claiming that you'll start competing with China or USA.
    2
  2503. India's literacy rate is 75%. I can see why. 😂 Most of these childish comment sections makes NO sense.
    2
  2504. Splits and dissolution within a Communist party to make a change for the better is always a promising sign. Don't forget that. Nepal is in a whole lot of trouble, economically, poverty-wise and socially, due to its communist leanings. Hoping for the better.
    2
  2505. Yep. Modern day abortionists and feminists are enacting Nazi-era eugenic policies. They dehumanize children, glorify abortion and has managed to trick the foolish populace into believing that this is female healthcare. It's repulsive to see. Luckily Poland has implemented a ban on these unstable people and their desires.
    2
  2506. The Thai king is a sleazy person that exploits his position at the expense of Thailand's reputation. Lives in luxurious conditions without justification. Wastes cash. Doesn't really care about the people. Dresses like a tacky hippie. So I can see why Thai people are looking to abolish the monarchy. It's a stain at this point.
    2
  2507. This is why law & order is one of the most important concepts out there if you value stability and safety. Any divisive elements and external threats would be handled if this type of policy were highly valued everywhere. Disgraceful that these militants still manages to operate and capture innocent children for their twisted political gains.
    2
  2508. Not really. And even if you believe that you are (HK had freedom up until the vandals took it too far for no reason), violence and sabotage will never be tolerated to reach such a state.
    2
  2509. Good, this is a long time coming. We want security and stability in Hong Kong, not lawless anarchy where the police is shamed, where innocent residents are attacked, and where every building is burned down or vandalized. The same should apply to BLM in USA. The support for these movements is completely irrational and indefensible.
    2
  2510. That's great. Maybe many of these americans will manage to finally tackle the obesity epidemic and get in shape. Create a healthy lifestyle. A positive consequence of the pandemic, if you will.
    2
  2511. Any country with a large populace and the ability to contribute with competence, mass production at low prices, innovation and good conditions for businesses to start up, will be a huge player on the market unless the leadership is lost out of their mind. Does India fulfill these quotas? Maybe.
    2
  2512. Why do people become so fascinated and trapped in these conspiracy theories? They can be captivating and humorous, but you don't actually believe in these ideas do you?
    2
  2513.  @chililucas5483  Arresting criminals, punishing disrespectful societal threats, providing education opportunities to the group and handing out billions in annual subsidies to raise the group, isn't oppression. Time to face the fact that the group are contributing to their own misfortunes, not the external factors around them trying to keep society safe. Don't be fooled by emotionally manipulative media reports that has swept over the West this autumn, summer and spring.
    2
  2514. The government is weak, has no control and are unable to detect where these rebels are, how to handle them, and how to act proactively.
    2
  2515.  Susanna Zaitseva  Begone with the irrelevant self-advertising spam.
    2
  2516. Yup. Especially the gender part. Making sure that there's 50% of women and men, even though the competence and interest differs greatly. Disgraceful how these corporations and event organizers has sunk so low.
    2
  2517. It's newsworthy that a country breaches its own traditions and religious doctrine during the pandemic. Perhaps they're slowly realizing that science, health and efficacy doesn't go together with ancient constructed religious doctrine.
    2
  2518. "Little strokes fell great oaks." "The Butterfly effect".
    2
  2519. Nothing, apart from short-sighted economic gain, improves by exposure to poor air quality.
    2
  2520. Report number ~10 of these meetings in Nepal, Bahrain and Sri Lanka the past days from WION. By the amount of reports and talk about this meeting, you could get the impression that it is about life and death.
    2
  2521. Cute story. But remember who Bernard Sanders is. A person who've glorified Cuba's communist policies, spent time with Soviet officials back in the ~70s, and tried to abolish many of the principles that made america strong, prosperous and safe. Sorry, but I can't look at such a person and pretend to cuddle with him as if he's an ideal individual worth placing on a pedestal. The inauguration that he attended also marks the beginning of a dark era where civilized and effective policies will be withdrawn by the Biden administration.
    2
  2522. They've covered it a couple of times weekly for several weeks.
    2
  2523.  @Bigjoeskater  The revolution would succeed and be successful if CIA and the US top of government were supportive of it.
    2
  2524. Because people are shameless and malicious if they aren't controlled on a figurative cage, brother.
    2
  2525.  Dominic Karol peter  Fidel destroyed his own economy, spread harmful ideology around the world, killed his people, and hindered progress. He was a mass-murdering psychopath who deserved to be neutralized.
    2
  2526.  @parveens7766  Expressed contempt for the USA, supported communist dictators/ideology (mass-murdering ideologies), evaded taxes while pretending to care about the rich, tried to abolish the system that made him rich and successful. He was a walking caricature of a hypocritical maniac who tarnished the world, BUT, he was a decent football player.
    2
  2527. Or...help others and just silence these sort of hooligans.
    2
  2528. Why? These pardons are justified. People were entrapped and tricked into committing a (extremely petty) "crime" by the Mueller investigation, an investigation that were illegitimate. An investigation that started after FBI illegally had spied on the Trump campaign and used a politicized dossier and internet rumors to start it up. Obama shouldn't have had pardoning powers though. And they should perhaps be limited for everyone.
    2
  2529. Psychiatric complications are temporary and can be rectified. Death is permanent. Limiting the latter should obviously be the top priority in a moral society.
    2
  2530. The global death rate is also alarming. Something that obviously should take precedence here.
    2
  2531. The donation is to quickly assist Myanmar or other impoverished countries during the coronavirus pandemic. The money can't be taken back and can be used for whatever, related to medicine/healthcare.
    2
  2532.  RUNNER 626  He's not getting "angry", are you? The guy literally pointed out the hypocrisy in laughing about Pakistan's GDP and trying to portray India as "superior" when they're both underdeveloped and behind nations on so many parameters. In PPP, GDP per capita, capacities, technological advancements, etc.
    2
  2533. That happened before the pandemic. The standards of living and costs in China are rising. So is their political suppression. That leads to many corporations establishing elsewhere.
    2
  2534. That's huge. $708B is basically the sort of stimulus figure that you'd see in the US, a country with almost 3x the population of Japan. That the package is presented now when vaccination is about to start is also remarkable. Wonder if it'll be effective.
    2
  2535. That is an interesting fact indeed. Did Tedros influence on the world stage impact the US decision to get involved for the Tigray forces benefit? Possibly. The government must at least be aware of Tedros ties.
    2
  2536. Rejoining a treaty that Russia didn't adhere to which grants Russia free leeway to continue with their destabilization tactics abroad and domestically..who's the "Russian puppet" again? It surely isn't Trump who suspended the treaty and whom did not collude.
    2
  2537. Al Jazeera goes?
    2
  2538. Sounds as if the left-wing parties still has way too much influence in Romania. Almost 50% representation in the Senate, in Mayor-positions and local councils. At least they've abandoned their absolute communist rule that ended in 1989. Good luck Romania!
    2
  2539. Just look at their actions. We've seen left-wing violence in several cities these past weeks, after Biden's inauguration. Violence and radicalism by right-wingers is very much a rarity. Yet we see no calls by politicians, the public, or the media, to hold these left-wing extremists, BLM, Antifa, anarchistic revolutionaries/insurrectionists, accountable.
    2
  2540. They're not scientists nor inhuman. They know as little of the pandemic as the current research shows. They can't investigate the pandemic however they wish and enter countries without the country's leadership's consent. People here seems to have no clue how things work lmao
    2
  2541. GO GO GO FRANCE!
    2
  2542. Be careful with what you wish for. Military intervention isn't appropriate here, and should only be used as a final solution when no other solution for world peace and security exists.
    2
  2543. Why should a non-Indian company that receives support, competent personnel and assistance in the country that their headquarter and facilities are stationed in, move to India right now? Makes no sense.
    2
  2544. Child/cousin marriage is a part of the Islamic doctrine. It's normalized entirely. Even the religion's initial prophet indulged in such a reprehensible relationship. When will the feminized West acknowledge this and prevent its spread?
    2
  2545. Biden is opening up the floodgates to high-risk countries with no stability or values compatible with the USA. He's willing to break down USA in order to appear tolerant and welcoming. Congrats, USA!
    2
  2546. He's definitely got potential. Impressive abilities. If the time and place is right, i'm sure he'll go far and maybe improve the status of Nigeria. Wishing him well!
    2
  2547. ...because it doesn't matter what gender a person has to advocate for and implement what's right? The comparisons made by WION in this video makes no sense. It's just sexist and inflates the irrelevant "importance" of one's background.
    2
  2548. They're not wrong. But US has to be extra careful when giving concessions to a hostile and rogue state such as Iran with only their own self-interests in mind.
    2
  2549. You better not call yourself a conservative then.
    2
  2550. Lol, what a random thing to say. What's that even supposed to mean? Heavy snowfall after a landslide killed ~8 individuals in Norway a few days ago. Over 10 were killed in Iran after heavy snowfall at a ski resort. Tough weather impacts all the world.
    2
  2551.  @MrX-el6jq  Without leftist ideology and religion, yes.
    2
  2552. Remember back in 2019 when India initiated a space mission to the moon? The mission had to be cancelled due to miscalculation and lack of capacity of the space capsule/rocket if I recall correctly. Quite anticlimactic, least said.

  2553. Pelosi loved that. She said that protests are meant to be uncomfortable. She said that she didn't care that much about statues, its desecration, vandalism and its removal by the mob. That's how she dismissed the illegalities when reporters raised it. She's a depraved hypocrite that ought to be removed from office ASAP.
    2
  2554.  @Free_Russian  Their hostile foreign policy, destabilization tactics to hijack territory/resources, infiltration, acts of spying, hacking, threats, etc, must be countered for sure. And their policy of supporting other socialist states around the world. That's a threat to any decent country. This target requires strong players with a backbone, strength, military force and clarity. Biden will decrease our possibilities in that regard. Western complacency and passivity will leverage these socialist states to continue their takeovers.
    2
  2555. Everyone's an involuntary guinea pig throughout this pandemic. Using a regulated and approved vaccine under close supervision isn't as dangerous as letting the pandemic continue wreaking havoc. But people can't think that far or analyze without invoking self-serving conspiracies, right?
    2
  2556. You can argue that this is tyrannical and unfair in a free world. But one thing's for certain, if your values align with upholding security, unity and a country where everyone's on the same page without any revolutionary/threatening elements, this is the way to go. China takes is too far, as always, though. Limiting people from discussing even neutral political topics and forcing people to blindly believe in status quo is borderline evil, and a threat, just like in Soviet times which resulted in many catastrophic failures.
    2
  2557. What's unlazy about using an internet forums to manipulate a stock price? Lol, if anything, these moves just reaffirms the stereotype about lazy millennials lmao There's nothing dignified about speculating on the market. Especially not if you're trying to manipulate the fair market forces for your own personal benefit.
    2
  2558. Clever, good move. But TikTok is only one of the many apps and platforms that needs to be regulated if you wanna counter indecency and various illegalities. Still, nice to see Pakistan doing something good for once.
    2
  2559. Fun fact: Disneyland is one of the few places in the USA enjoying the status of a no-fly zone. Presumably and partially because it's so huge and can hold so many people, which also explains their capacity to host vaccination centres.
    2
  2560. Okay, so if Canada can't interfere in India's domestic affairs, how will India handle and respond to the farmers' demands then? Ignoring them? Changing policies? All I see is dismissals of what Trudeau said.
    2
  2561. Why blame everything on Pakistan? Iran is a major terrorist sponsor as well. So is Syria, etc. Not to mention the Taliban's presence in Afghanistan. And frequency of lone-wolf jihadists operating and destroying the country. Not everything is about Pakistan just because you're Indian (which I presume is true, considering this userbase's leanings/heritage). It doesn't look clever when everything is blamed on one country just because you oppose that country.
    2
  2562. Merkel has failed to unify the German people and uphold safety, the citizens peace/rights, and civilized conduct in the country. Liberalism and voluntarism along with open borders is basically her main policy positions, which has ruined Europe. So I can see why she's leaving politics next year. These attacks are unacceptable and pointless though. That's not how a society deals with injustices. Wishing Germans the best.
    2
  2563. Right. India should be able to do whatever they wish to shield themselves from the issues of political islam and lack of assimilation from that group. Same goes for China when they're tackling subversion and terrorist violence from the group. Nobody should comment on such domestic affairs.
    2
  2564. US and NATO entered the middle east on valid premises, to counter global threats, terrorism and extremists that tried to seize control in middle eastern countries or in the West. Why wish misery upon those responsible for such operations just because some of them failed?
    2
  2565. You know that your country is messed up and a lost cause when even the "politicians" behaves like criminal thugs, as if they're stuck in the stone age. Such role models, huh? Embarrassing to see, but I guess no one is surprised.
    2
  2566. Just like Ethiopian forces are doing right now. Raid the places dominated by the rebels and neutralize them. Any other option will just lead to your country being ran over by radical extremists with no value of human life.
    2
  2567. I think Biden will perform better than Trump when it comes to handling corona. He's taking it seriously and will apply methods that decreases the spread and rapidly results in immunization. But he's a nightmare on social and security policy. He won't deter criminals and risks from USA, he'll attract them. He'll let everybody do whatever they want without restrictions. Downsize all forms of decency.
    2
  2568. Finding consistency and logic in communist societal models is difficult.
    2
  2569. Fun fact: NATO strengthened to an unprecedented degree under Trump. Germany and other powerful allies increased their military spending. The cooperation were very close and thorough, contrary to popular belief. I wonder what their incoming mission will be. Kick out Turkey for violating treaties and acting as if they're above all laws and guidelines?
    2
  2570. Absolutely. Brave man!
    2
  2571. She's the embodiment of projection. Calls foreign dignitaries and diplomats for "dogs, human scum" and other pejoratives, while not realizing that she's showcasing the type of aggressive characteristics that a normal person would associate with the pejoratives that she just used.
    2
  2572. 20-40% of the citizens in many of these countries are in favor of suicide bombings, acts of violence and radical militia/rebel groups, according to censuses on the matter. Very alarming.
    2
  2573. A rough climate with high temperatures, lots of bush/desert areas that easily catch fire, and due to the large landmass of risky territory in the country. It's difficult to control and extinguish everything.
    2
  2574. Wow, what a useless case to waste one's time on. We're in a crisis and in a chaotic period globally. And words are obsessed over. Jeeez...
    2
  2575. The UK can't ever complain about societal disorder or talk about law & order when they're giving refuge and sanctuary to disruptive vandals and borderline terrorists. Indefensible.
    2
  2576. Nah, we need less, not more drugs. Should be outlawed entirely.
    2
  2577. Creating lab copies of nutritional food through genetic engineering/editing will probably become the norm. Maintaining the healthy and nutritional parts is likely something that can be done, otherwise it wouldn't be seen as a valid alternative. I haven't heard that the nutrition would dissolve completely through these processes.
    2
  2578. That's one way to deter and keep track of the obesity epidemic. Humanity should do the same 😎
    2
  2579. US should stop interfering with other countries state of affairs and politics. That'll only backlash.
    2
  2580. It didn't "disappear", it's just that the corona is more transmissible and deadly, which is why most reports are about the coronavirus. You don't only appear delusional if you use the term corona and "hoax" in the same sentence, but coldhearted and selfish. Millions have suffered from the outbreak and are continuing to do so, so show some damn respect.
    2
  2581. Erdogan shouldn't dare using terms such as "cooperation, peace and justice" whenever he discusses his own and Turkey's strivings. Spontaneously using your military for national gain, whether it's in Syria, with Greece/Cyprus or in Azerbaijan, isn't peaceful action. Threatening EU to release millions of Syrian refugees unless EU gives in, isn't peaceful action.
    2
  2582. USA doesn't need more immigration. Nothing about this is good. Why should illegal conduct be promoted anyway?
    2
  2583. Yep, these comment sections needs to be cleaned.
    2
  2584. This is how you play monopoly, or the game of capitalism. Read the market, adjust your production/manufacturing line to meet the growing demand of a product by proper investment, and rake in the beloved profits. These corporations that several governments will be reliant on are about to make a fortune.
    2
  2585. Move in, initiate the military offensive and remove the rebels, Abiy!
    2
  2586. Has the military ever backed down from anything? If not, these protests are likely in vain. But I can understand the frustration.
    2
  2587. Not through military interventionism. We don't need more wars/destabilized areas in the world.
    2
  2588. Because the army believed that election fraud swayed the election against the army's interests. No investigation occurred, which is why the military seized power by stating that it was constitutionally apt. Trump could've (should've?) done the same until the election results and irregularities had been thoroughly investigated.
    2
  2589. Is it homophobia to point out the overrepresentation of drug abuse, stds, aids, marxist sympathy and psychiatric shortcomings in a movement obsessed about hedonistic pleasures and self-gratification over anything else worthwhile? Should such a culture be embraced?
    2
  2590. When looking at the actions and illogical thinking by some individuals these days, i'm convinced that neanderthals still are among us.
    2
  2591. It's sadly hard to hear what the reporter is saying. No flow or clarity in the speech. Unfortunate, because this news piece seemed interesting.
    2
  2592. Making predictions as a health expert based on trends and the available scientific data makes you a 'fortune teller'?
    2
  2593. They've been vaccinated before, so this isn't surprising. Three ex-presidents in the US has also said that they're willing to vaccinate themselves on live television, if Dr. Fauci verifies that the vaccine is safe to inject. I presume many leaders will do the same, or at least take the vaccine.
    2
  2594. A democratic election will be held in Myanmar within a year. Up until then, any dissent and riots will be quashed, in adherence to the army's interpretation of Myanmar's constitution. So technically, democracy hasn't been undermined if you look at it from the military's side and the power structure that has benefitted the military since the country's inception.
    2
  2595. The focus on gender distribution in the Lithuanian government, why is that so important? Some diversity is alright and will always naturally occur, but why force and obsess over it?
    2
  2596.  Ahmet Al Hamid  Is that all that you think about? How "fun" person x has had with demographic y in country z. Always posted by someone from the Gulf states too. Sexually deprived?
    2
  2597. Surprising that China is seemingly trying to hack into these minorities accounts. Figured they'd abduct and penalize them instead by secretly bringing them under China's jurisdiction.
    2
  2598. UK should leave the country and pull back the troops. The political ministers should speed it up. That'd be synonymous with doing one's job. Kind of strange to see calls for resignations for this incident, by not being involved enough. I can understand the calls to impeach or remove Biden, but UK ministers? lol
    2
  2599. Bangladesh is very poor and people's education levels are at the bottom. Yet people waste their time rioting because a strict enough version of outdated and fundamentalist Islam isn't implemented? Unbelievable. The authorities should crackdown upon it as soon as possible. But I presume even the authorities are hijacked by corruption, mismanagement and radicalism.
    2
  2600. If democracy implies burning down the city, vandalizing things, rioting for nothing, shaming the police and trying to release violence criminals, the concept is flawed and not desirable. The security legislation in HK is needed. Anyone who've studied the topic knows this.
    2
  2601.  @KeeperGER  China won't break apart, because yes, it isn't communist. It has become a quite thriving country with increased standards of living for hundreds of millions, which they enjoy and are satisfied with. The CCP has control over the nation, and nothing indicates that the grip on power will cease. Quite the contrary. Authoritarianism (fascism isn't the right characterization here) has its place in some cases, and does work effectively. Defending the HK rioters here can't be done through logic or a straight face. No informed person does so.
    2
  2602. Ecuador has a population of 17M citizens, Peru with 32M. Ecuador has 14,6K recorded coronavirus deaths, while Peru has a little over 40K recorded deaths. From some quick mathematic extrapolation, that seems to imply that Peru is doing ~85% worse per capita, if we go by these statistics.
    2
  2603. Tedros is the messenger, represents a team and countries part of the WHO, and has been reporting on the available information. Criticize WHO for having been slow and not clear enough throughout this pandemic, don't single out Tedros.
    2
  2604. They were exposed and tied to China. Is that a job well done 🤔
    2
  2605. Maybe it's best to avoid meeting with these hostile countries. Venezuela, Russia, China, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, Nepal, and their friends. Safety first, the number one priority.
    2
  2606. Another pointless war fuelled by greed, blind nationalism and dogmatism. Tragic that it's allowed to still occur in the 21st century.
    2
  2607. China and Russia are strengthening their ties. USA are losing their leverage and have been brushed off by these countries. Why did anyone believe that Biden would make things better again?
    2
  2608.  @bankerborsch  Your freedom will be soon gone anyway if you don't force people to take responsibility. That doesn't just apply to the climate. I don't think lockdowns should be enforced to handle climate change though, transitioning into renewables sources and electrifying the road would be better. Investing in tree planting/green projects and researching improved fuel would be effective too.
    2
  2609. The lifestyle by many and the interests by the average person are responsible for the type of consumer-based society and mass production facilities that exists. Shopping, travelling, purchasing useless stuff, gilding one's appearance in an excessive way, filling up several wardrobes, etc, is the go-to by many, not just the rich. The rich may be lobbying to avoid change, but the average person in society aren't willing to give up their way of living either.
    2
  2610. Welp. This is cool and all, but let's hope they don't go rogue! Or that they're controlled by enemies and hostile actors.
    2
  2611. ​ @poet4727  The electoral college is very complicated compared with the usual parliamentary or presidential elections that are held around the world, where the people directly vote on a party/candidate resulting in proportional mandates. Trump didn't make it look complicated, no.
    2
  2612. Misleading title. What does Singapore have to do with this North african dish?
    2
  2613. Certain industries are dominated by a specific gender because of natural reasons. Because of differences in interest. Biological characteristics that results in people choosing separate paths. Some countries has tried to eliminate this discrepancies by affirmative action and governmentally forced gender quotas, but that tends to just result in more gender splits, as seen in e.g. Sweden. If I had to guess why there are more female workers in the wool industry in Australia, may it have to do with the inclination for women to enjoy socially caring for others? Caressing and treating animals? Living at home, close to or at a farm? With that in mind, this seems very natural.
    2
  2614. 2020, the year of the virus. 2021, the year of unprecedented vaccination programs.
    2
  2615. That's clever and may decrease the spread, if people follow the description. It's gonna take quite some time to mass produce masks with these labels though. But better late than never..
    2
  2616. For how many decades has this been said? India is clearly not becoming an independent superpower.
    2
  2617. The Japan empire is once again regrowing and reincarnating from the grave.
    2
  2618. Using $300k to gather votes is quite a big deal. But Abe weren't involved, so
    2
  2619. Just stop following Gravitas. The bias by this woman is despicably clear, and is luckily usually not seen on WION's normal reporting.
    2
  2620. India is yet to publish data and the results from the clinical trials as far as I know, so let's not get ahead of ourselves here. The most credible and rapidly created vaccines came from Europe and North America, countries that are secular and scientifically compatible. So why even turn this into a debate over religion?
    2
  2621.  Amir Kiani ka BAAP  😂
    2
  2622. Ban clubs (especially indecent clubs for individuals with questionable leanings) and religious gatherings, the main culprits. Receive control of the virus until the vaccines are here.
    2
  2623.  @deepankar94  To kick out Al Qaeda and Ladin by force. That was righteous, but then the mission changed into building a political system that Afghans don't want. We shouldn't have done the latter.
    2
  2624. The bullying is repulsive to see. All on the wrong premises. Based on malicious distortions.
    2
  2625. These democrats and its constituency only see white right-wingers as a threat. Acts of terror, riots and crime (which happens more frequently, across the board, by other demographics) is toned down entirely.
    2
  2626. The communist syndrome. A plague, can be fatal.
    2
  2627. Awww. Speak of a situation of where so little can enrich so much in your life.
    2
  2628.  @sunnymitra6372  America isn't racist or discriminatory in that way, so yes, she'd be elected if she had the right policies and competence. In fact, women and colored entities are more common to be chosen as minority tokens and diversity picks these days. Or, shoehorned by affirmative action.
    2
  2629. Oh, they will. The USA is even contributing with many millions of dollars worth in assistance, resources, food, healthcare, etc. What the US won't allow is communist suppression against citizens, terrorism sponsorship or rebel groups challenging the global order. Nice try tho.
    2
  2630. France is on a roll lately. Doing what it takes to build up an exceptionally strong and robust nation that won't back down against any threats whatsoever. Pleased to be part of this journey.
    2
  2631. Would he even have been caught and sentenced in India? Doubtful. Corruption and bribery is essentially party of every day life there for plenty of regular citizens, the police and public officials.
    2
  2632. The Sudanese PM's departure were seen a few hours after he reached Ethiopia. Doesn't seem like much was solved or discussed. When journalists asked the Ethiopian PM's spokesperson about whether the Sudanese PM had brokered a peace deal or helped out in the war, the response was "what war"?
    2
  2633. What is your problem? Mutated versions of the virus has been detected many times this past year, and has been controlled. This new strain is more dangerous than seen by many of these previous strains, which is why every country has to do what it takes to limit its spread. Call the policy oppression if you like, the policy is very much needed.
    2
  2634. Another pointless war with thousands of injuries/deaths, with many rogue states involved. Not even Russia the dishonest 'peace brokerer' who were on both sides in this war with 2,000 peacekeeping troops, did not manage to uphold the ceasefire. These countries and its populace has to be kept in check to prevent future transgressions.
    2
  2635.  @Nozarks1  The claim that people still are getting corona and that the vaccine does nothing is false, and is a conspiracy. You can contract the virus a few weeks after inoculation until you've received a form of immunity, but that's it. Side-effects from the vaccine may occur, which is unfortunate. But the side-effects seems to (from what we know) be very mild and significantly more lenient compared with letting the pandemic carry on wreaking havoc.
    2
  2636. So exaggerated. This group isn't a threat compared with many of the actual threats that exists in these countries. But this is what you get when politically motivated actors decides to designate groups as 'threats' based on their political convictions.
    2
  2637.  @BlueHippieGoddess  Guilt by association fallacy, don't do it. If a communist likes to drink water, does that mean that it's evil and despicable to drink water and that we should abolish water? That's basically what you're saying here lmao
    2
  2638. That he is. I'm sure he'll reenter the political scene someday, when the time is right.
    2
  2639. Nobody is blocking Ethiopia from neutralizing TPLF. Eritrean and Ethiopian forces, supported by most of the world and their domestic populations, are from what seems to be true from the reports bulldozing the mountainous north of Ethiopia. What is taking them so long to establish peace? Why are figureheads and representatives from TPLF still existing?
    2
  2640. Virtual reality will replace reality at some point if this rapid digitalization continues without barriers.
    2
  2641. This guy needs to calm down with the poetic and emotionally charged language. It's too ofted used against him.
    2
  2642. China is technically still honoring the agreement, these news laws does only affect those trying to behave in action and supporting stances that undermines order and stability. HK is still comprehensively unaffected, unless you're a vandal, a terrorist or someone that supporters an illogical movement seeking to shame the police, release violent convicts, and destroy the city.
    2
  2643. Especially if they're calling for the takeovers by Iran, its militias, the Taliban, and for foreign peacekeeping forces to be expelled. These people needs to be educated and given sensible advice. But I doubt any entity would be willing to try doing so for the decades to come now after the US failed.
    2
  2644. Who's the victim if a country's media corporation has their reporting license suspended by another country that they're reporting in? This is not what "Playing the victim" means. They ARE the victims here, whether you like it or not. I don't know if the suspension was justifiable though. Likely not, since I presume it has to do with UK's support for the vandals in Hong Kong.
    2
  2645. They've made documentaries and movies about this 'hero' lmao Bet people regret their uncritical and blind support for the corrupt man now. If they had any shame.
    2
  2646. Glorify, connect to, and express love for Israel and you'll be showered with gratitude by the United States. What a precedent that sets huh. This is a quite provocative action in Africa. But may deescalate the IP-conflict, possibly. Risky move.
    2
  2647. Always has been.
    2
  2648. Someone would replace Twitter. We'd have to implement a law against all social medias to prevent manipulation. The question is if that is the answer, and if that even is desirable, since everyone would be punished by it.
    2
  2649. Serving justice and making sure that the country is free from danger isn't liked by some of Pakistan's more radical people and movements. But the government doesn't take these movements seriously enough, letting these horrible incidents occur..
    2
  2650. You can't just make things up like that. It's not a "placebo"...where does these made-up ideas come from?
    2
  2651. Interacting with a robot comes across as tragic. But imagine the amount of costs that a state could cut down on if these robots could replace the millions of social and health workers around the world. Just hope they don't go rogue ;)
    2
  2652. He played the capitalist game of properly tracking supply and demand to accordingly adjust, if you will.
    2
  2653. The digital police is way behind all the hackers and scammers that uses their PCs and the internet to their advantage. Authorities around the world should arrest all of the hackers and/or hire them to deal with this. Alternatively, educate a large enough force of counterhackers before it's too late.
    2
  2654. Probably. Biden has been in free fall recently. I bet there's many plans in the works to cover up for him.
    2
  2655.  @ZR1Terror  Deescalation and proactive policy to prevent breaches should be encouraged, not playing dirty. Those playing dirty should be removed and deterred, instead of adopting their own tactics and increasing its prevalence accordingly.
    2
  2656. Hope the communist state dissolves and results in an actually competent Nepalese rule with the people's interests in mind. It's regretful to see that China are doing what they can to maintain the current communist rule.
    2
  2657. Because he illegally released information that you enjoy seeing? Why don't people realize that sort of precedent this attitude sets for every unethical "journalist" out there?
    2
  2658. Because UAE are big fans of security, assimilation and fighting terrorism. Because UAE are close trade- and diplomatic partners with China. Why speak up against a benevolent friend?
    2
  2659. Yup. The people that have the intention to hurt, downsize or shame the police, or alternatively shape a system that terrorists and criminals can exploit, should be locked up behind iron bars.
    2
  2660. False negative results around the world, not just in China, has probably exacerbated the pandemic severely. While false positive results has wasted resources. A 100% accuracy seems impossible to reach. Why? The main reasons are the following: "The sample was taken at the wrong time (too early or too late) The swab did not pick up any pieces of the virus, or The sample of mucus (or liquid from the lungs) wasn’t big enough."
    2
  2661. "90% false positive", lol what?
    2
  2662. Do you have to Binod every comment section?
    2
  2663. A more conservative and capitalist government, perhaps. Nepal and its partners would benefit by that. Protectionist and counterproductive communism isn't a concept worth preserving anywhere.
    2
  2664. Seems self-explanatory that every military personnel should be required to take a vaccine if they're travelling abroad, spending time in close vicinity of many different people, and considering that good health is the goal and a prerequisite to participate in the military. Frankly, it should be obligatory for all, but especially first responders and those working in high-risk fields. But I can see why a mandatory mandate isn't implemented yet, since FDA hasn't given a full approval.
    2
  2665. Yup. It's embarrassing what has happened in Sweden the past year, and years for the matter. Pseudoscientific notions, naivity, liberally extreme policies, and pure negligence. Many must be held accountable.
    2
  2666. The daily infection and death rate is alarming, higher than most countries on earth. The total per capita death rate is also very alarming, Sweden is ranked 10 or 20 in the globe there. This approach of doing nothing has not worked in the country, and has been demoralizing. People and politicians has defied recommendations, skied, travelled abroad and nonchalantly dismissed the guidelines entirely. So something had to be done. These laws are good first step. But this government should be punished and held accountable for their negligence and for enabling this mess in the first place. That includes Löfvén, Hallengren, Tegnell, Giesecke, Dan Eliasson, and everyone who've spread misinfo to uphold this failing strategy.
    2
  2667. "wockie-tockies" Ah, the Indian accent 🤣
    2
  2668. Climate change denialism may not be an illness, but it's conspiratorial, idiotic and pseudo-scientific if you've read all the studies and data published on the matter. Do you even know what you're talking about?
    2
  2669. They're in a huge crisis because of the travel bans and restrictions...
    2
  2670. Aww, how cute. Dogtors 😂
    2
  2671. Why are WION, Indians and journalists portraying these statements as something significant? Who cares whether or not the Canadian or British PM comments on a big ongoing matter in another country. The protests are not only occurring in India, but in UK as well. So why are people celebrating that no comments are made about it?
    2
  2672. Russia could be an economic powerhouse and a real superpower if they stopped provoking the world and endlessly expanded their army as if their life and soul depends on it. Do better, Russia.
    2
  2673. Nah, USA had these similar issues before the pandemic. The pandemic may have caused some to go crazy, but the main reason why the gun crime has increased is due to people inciting each other after Floyd got his medicine from the police. And because the police may be intimidated to do what it takes to clean up.
    2
  2674. Better gun legislation is a good start, but it'll be opposed by the libertarian gop/dem members, acting as dogmatic roadblocks to every needed change. But gun laws won't be enough. Cleaning up the ghetto areas and changing the values that many of its members has would also be important. Strengthening the police rather than downsizing it would be another important step. Releasing the police officers who've done their job from jail or the court system is also crucial (Chauvin/Potters did NOTHING wrong). Lots to be done.
    2
  2675. Don't cancel Al Jazeera :')
    2
  2676. Pakistan sent fighters and financial aid in the late 80s/early 90s to the Taliban in Afghanistan so a regime favorably to Pakistan would be installed there. These sort of operations and turning the other cheek to radical Islamists has resulted in a ton of backlash. Pakistan should've thought twice prior to indulging in these activities.
    2
  2677. The real second wave incoming. Wasn't the second wave the most deadly one during the Spanish Flu as well?
    2
  2678. Illegally seizing and holding an oil tanker hostage to receive one's political desires. And some people still wonder why Iran's a rogue state that deserves a zero tolerance approach when being handled.

  2679. He's faced many challenges from Congress, district/state courts and SCOTUS. International politicians, NGOs, UN, and interests groups has also tried to prevent his conservative offensive. Without these roadblocks in the way, he could've gotten a lot further. It's unfortunate that he didn't manage to remove them.

  2680. What a weird comment to make. No, arbitrarily interpreted slave labor isn't "extremism". Surely you realize that. These national guards are vetted to see if they're fine with political violence. If they're inclined to indulge in illegalities or threatening behavior. What in the world does slave labor by some fringe company have to do with that?

  2681. Or...let's stabilize the situation in Yemen, support UAE, KSA and the recognized Yemeni government to remove the Houthi rebels, and peace/prosperity may be easier to achieve! :)

  2682. An ex-communist soldier with support of Putin. A leader who've seemingly cheated his way to receive a grip on power, and hasn't manage to respond at all to the coronavirus. His response to the virus? Play hockey in cold stadiums, drive tractors, drink beer and bath in the sauna. Couldn't get more depraved and repulsive than that. He needs to go.

  2685.  d the best  Didn't he just say that he were an atheist? Where's the hate in what he's saying? I fact checked his claims. They seem to be true: "Though Christmas has become a retail extravaganza, its holiday roots lie in the celebration of the birth of Jesus, who the Christian religion regards as the son of God. But was Jesus really born on December 25? The short answer is no. It is not believed Jesus was born on the day Christmas is globally celebrated. Instead, Christmas was chosen as a convenient celebratory day on the same day of a pagan holiday that celebrated the winter solstice, according to The History Channel. The holiday was celebrated as the Roman pagan solstice, or "birthday of the unconquered sun," which began on December 17 and ended December 25. Another major plot point, regarding Jesus's birth and parents Mary and Joseph's commute to their hometown, Bethlehem, was the concept that Mary and Joseph had to travel to Bethlehem for the Roman census. The census allegedly would not have occurred in the winter, or December specifically, because the turnout would have been expected low. As for when Jesus was really born, many Christians base their calculation on the birth of Jesus's cousin, John the Baptist. John was conceived six months before Jesus. If his birth is taken into consideration, it leaves Jesus's birth in June. United Church of God specifically names June 13 to 17 as a likely time Jesus was born."

  2686. They don't have a reason to lie about these numbers. Why would they? Save face? If 100+ were dead, the amount of sympathy and assistance would increase, which could benefit China. I doubt they would make things up when it comes to these accidents or blunders. The real info would come out sooner or later anyway.

  2691. Provide proof for your unsubstantiated claim. Otherwise, I suggest staying silent. You're muddling the debate if you can't bring the truth to the table. Every bit of proof and data shows that this virus spread through animal trade at an unhygienic wet trade market. Not through manufactured virus manipulation at a lab. That's still a ridiculous conspiracy.
    2
  2692. Proof?

  2693. Turkey and its leadership has an inherent longing for power, territory expansion and the ability to extract resources. I'm sure water isn't an exception. If desperate times comes, a water war started up by Turkey wouldn't be a surprise considering their spontaneous and aggressive foreign policy.
    2
  2694. Can FBI be trusted with this? The politicized organisation that barely mentions the threat of Antifa/BLM in their security reports? A organisation that had to apologize for illegally spying on the Trump campaign based on a politicizes dossier and internet rumors? That said, shame on Russia for trying to steal, jeopardize and interfere in other nations. They deserve to be punished for their actions.
    2
  2695. Provoke, trying to divide and conquer (without achieving anything of value) and seeking conflict rather than peace is the North Korean way of going about things. That's why they're so despised and isolated by the international world. Why they arguably have to be put in place and controlled.
    2
  2696. Maybe they're inspired by Singapore and Switzerland. Developed, safe, and prosperous countries with plenty of diplomatic and trade partners. The common denominator? They're neutral and avoids talking down upon countries unless it's necessary.

  2697. Valiant sacrifice that the guy's making in a country where civility, the rule of law and raising objections against the tyrannical rule is seen as a joke.

  2702.  @Cortesevasive  USA has its shady past and has declared war on false premises at times, but they're not as dangerous to world peace as the countries I mentioned. Having a high incarceration rate doesn't make the country unfit for anything. The claims of racism against the country are very exaggerated and mostly debunked. Many of the people claiming that USA are racist, are probably from countries where racist policies are signed into law. It's all a bunch of hypocritical nonsense

  2704. Interesting fact in China: The divorce rate has spiked during the pandemic. So has the presence of domestic violence. But the country has managed to open up rapidly, so I presume the rate is gradually decreasing again.
    2
  2705. That has shown to be very effective during war times, and in this crisis. If the people are able to go their own way and dictate their own fate in a historical crisis, the country will severely mess up their response. This has been apparent in many democracies, which is why the system of liberal democracy is on retreat.

  2706. Thailand is too much of a militant, autocratic and strict state for meaningful reform. Will be surprised if any significant changes takes place by these protests. Perhaps it'll result in security laws, just like in Hong Kong, which served a massive blow to the movement.

  2707. Lmao. Yes, it's going to work. You know that freeze boxes and refrigerators are used in hot countries as well, right? Hospital facilities will have such equipment in place.

  2709. Better than handing out a bunch of asylum and letting anyone enter. But yes, this is a slippery slope. Biden appointed a pro-immigration loyalist to the DHS. He'll create a path to citizenship for every illegal migrant. He'll open up our borders. Not great.

  2714. Why? These countries can obviously not lift or control themselves without foreign assistance. Assistance that these governments are pleading for and welcoming. Why criticize those trying to help? Those sacrificing themselves to improve a broken continent?

  2715. You need to reach a sweet spot. If the cost to host media corporations becomes too expensive for the tech giants, they'll just drop the media corporations and operate without them. The result? Media corporations will suffer and bleed. They don't realize that. WION's journalist here doesn't seem to realize that either. These media corporations benefits by being shared on tech giants. The audience and profitability increases by it. Forcing the tech giants to drop these corporations won't be pleasant.

  2716. Myanmar will turn into a similarly new Hong Kong, but even more militarized and controlled by the state. The population will likely be forced to accept and adjust to that.

  2717. Guess which areas Joe's team said that these scientists would work on? "Racial inequality". "Economic downturn". Is that a task for scientists? Does legislated and active racial discrimination even exist? Not according to empirical data.

  2718. Trump never said to inject disinfectants. There was a study conducted on using disinfectants and UV-rays to possibly burn down the coronavirus, which is why he made that reference. Why do journalists keep on lying about statements taken out of context?

  2719. For those curious about his political views, let's just say that he was a quite stern Castro, Guevara, Chavez and Maduro supporter, under the umbrella of communist ideology: "Maradona showed sympathy to left-wing ideologies. He became friends with Cuban leader Fidel Castro while receiving treatment on the island, with Castro stating, "Diego is a great friend and very noble, too. There's also no question he’s a wonderful athlete and has maintained a friendship with Cuba to no material gain of his own."[73] Maradona had a portrait of Castro tattooed on his left leg and one of Fidel's second in command, fellow Argentine Che Guevara on his right arm.[251] In his autobiography, El Diego, he dedicated the book to various people, including Castro. He wrote, "To Fidel Castro and, through him, all the Cuban people." "Maradona was also a supporter of former Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez. In 2005, he came to Venezuela to meet Chávez, who received him in the Miraflores Palace. After this meeting, Maradona claimed that he had come with the aim of meeting a "great man" ("un grande" in Spanish), but he had met instead a gigantic man ("un gigante" in Spanish, meaning he was more than great). "I believe in Chávez, I am Chavista. Everything Fidel does, everything Chávez does, for me is the best."[253] Maradona was the guest of honour of Chávez at the opening game of the 2007 Copa América held in Venezuela." "Maradona declared his opposition to what he identified as imperialism, particularly during the 2005 Summit of the Americas in Mar del Plata, Argentina. There he protested George W. Bush's presence in Argentina, wearing a T-shirt labelled "STOP BUSH" (with the "s" in "Bush" being replaced with a swastika) and referring to Bush as "human garbage".[255][256] In August 2007, Maradona went further, making an appearance on Chávez's weekly television show Alo Presidente and saying, "I hate everything that comes from the United States. I hate it with all my strength." In December 2008, however, Maradona had adopted a more pro-US attitude when he expressed admiration for Bush's successor, President-elect Barack Obama, and held great expectations for him." "With his poor shanty town upbringing, Maradona cultivated a man-of-the-people persona. During a meeting with Pope John Paul II at the Vatican in 1987, they clashed on the issue of wealth disparity, with Maradona stating, "I argued with him because I was in the Vatican and I saw all these golden ceilings and afterwards I heard the Pope say the Church was worried about the welfare of poor kids. Sell your ceiling then amigo, do something!" In September 2014, Maradona met with Pope Francis in Rome, crediting Francis for inspiring him to return to religion after many years; he stated, "We should all imitate Pope Francis. If each one of us gives something to someone else, no one in the world would be starving." "In December 2007, Maradona presented a signed shirt with a message of support to the people of Iran: it is displayed in the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs' museum.[260] In April 2013, Maradona visited the tomb of Hugo Chávez and urged Venezuelans to elect the late leader's designated successor, Nicolás Maduro, to continue the socialist leader's legacy; "Continue the struggle," Maradona said on television. Maradona attended Maduro's final campaign rally in Caracas, signing footballs and kicking them to the crowd, and presented Maduro with an Argentina jersey. Having visited Chávez's tomb with Maradona, Maduro said, "Speaking with Diego was very emotional because comandante Chávez also loved him very much." Maradona participated and danced at the electoral campaign rally during the 2018 presidential elections in Venezuela. During the 2019 Venezuelan presidential crisis, the Mexican Football Federation fined him for violating their code of ethics and dedicating a team victory to Nicolás Maduro."

  2720. For sure, but the EU isn't willing to meet with UK's demands. The EU's intentions stays intact, unwilling to make any concessions. The UK left for a reason, and the EU seems vengeful in deterring any future departures, by making sure that leaving is hurtful. I'm sure they'll figure it out in the end though. A conflict hurts everyone.

  2726. Surprised that these lifestyles are tolerated in a theocratic country such as Pakistan. It's a lifestyle that you most certainly can change by the right cultural values, education, psychological evaluation, pressure and by handling the traumatic experiences that many of these individuals have experienced. Letting the unhealthy conduct carry on and accepting all of its associated demands won't benefit a country.
    2
  2727. The depravity of leftists never cease to amaze me. When things don't get their way, they scream, riot, burn things down, and threaten their antagonists. We'd be better off if all of these unhinged entities were thrown in jail..as a start.

Not to mention, the fear of being blown up or ending up with a looted store can't be preferred either. I suppose this guy doesn't have that much of a choice than to continue the business that he inherited though.

  2731. 1:02 kind of disrespectful to scream some random spanish phrase in the United States of America, during a historical inauguration. Or is it just me?
    2
  2732. The Russian collusion theory was a shady conspiracy theory that resulted in Trump and the main subjects being completely acquitted from all criminal accusations, under the assumption that people are innocent until proven guilty under the rule of law in a civilized jurisdiction (Mueller believes the opposite should prevail which is highly alarming). This theory was defended and touted by half of america and fraudulent establishment journalists. That act of treason and unacceptable conduct will never be forgotten. Full stop.

  2735. This must be getting lonely and I presume the human error may play a part here. It's a good alternative compared to receiving no treatment though.
    2
  2736. The man is at the end of the line anyway. But yeah, visiting Iraq is always a huge risk. The Pope being attacked by rebels would destroy Iraq's reputation even further and spark shockwaves. There's plenty of guards and security checks in place though.

  2737. Using international courts to prevent tyrannical practises used by dozens of countries around the world, won't work. Props for trying sure. I'm sure Bobi Wine's a nice person with good reason to protest what's happening to him and his party.

  2738. These treasonous actors are rhinos and should leave their party immediately. They weren't elected to polarize, chastise their OWN party leader, and provide benefits to the left. Incredible.
    2
  2739.  @davechappel6399  I mean...attacking one's own party leader, giving leverage to the left, and buying into media/oppositional lies about one's own leader and using that to prosecute him...is the worst thing you can do as a republican. All of these people deserve to go.
    2
  2740. The virus determines how most countries reacts, if the country is governed by a responsible entity. The problem with China is that they jailed and censored doctors/journalists for speaking about the virus outbreak early on. That China weren't transparent. That China would manufacture and spread this virus to control the rest of the world is just another childish conspiracy, honestly.
    2
  2741. The principle of presuming that political antagonists are guilty until proven innocent has been the past 4 years trend. Those responsible for these impeachment proceedings, russia collusion complaints and similar unhinged conspiracies are a shame to the USA.
    2
  2742. Fun fact: Sweden and some other European countries are doing worse than the US in terms of infections/deaths per capita and weak strategy against the virus. But due to the US population, people think that the US are doing worse. The media are responsible for not being clear enough in that regard either, and whipping up division. That said, the US could do much better, but its leadership and most states don't seem willing to adjust to the science and what's effective.

  2744. They should stop exporting salafist and fundamentalist values around the world. Save some sanity and cash that way by prohibiting the construction of mosques and funding radical imams.. I'd totally be on board these new projects if they took that responsibility. Raise the education levels of your citizens, ensure a future for everyone, diversify the economy, and start to compete for real on the market without oil.

  2745. Kim Jong Un has already cast a shadow over Biden. Biden's in the dark, and won't be spoken to by Jong Un. This man's responsible for denuclearisation?

  2746. Both dems and republicans are hindering much needed progress in this country. But I find it particularly amusing how Mitch McConnell is pretending to care about improving the infrastructure when he opposes most of the bills that provides funding and support for such projects. Republicans don't want to spend anything unless it is for the military and the rich. Dems on the other hands, wants to waste cash by spending way too much on useless projects.

  2748. Promising.

  2749. Snowfall has decreased, winters has become warmer and shorter, and the global temperature has gradually increased over the years due to what seems to be human footprint, which leads to glaciers melting, sea levels rising, and a demoralizing hot climate which results in people emigrating. The existence of snow doesn't mean what you seem to think it means.

  2750. Is it appropriate to visit tourist attractions and ski/snowboard in the midst of a pandemic? Might be better to delay such visits, perhaps..

  2751. Good. Keep it up Trump. Find the truth, make justice prevail and ensure that cheaters/illegal/criminal votes aren't counted.
    2
  2752. Good question, I'll try answering. If USA charges North Korean citizens stationed in North Korea for a crime, North Korea won't participate nor jail them because North Korea dislikes the USA greatly. If these charged citizens moves or travels to a country with an extradition treaty with the US, or a country that cooperates with Interpol or similar intelligence services, the citizens can be arrested and extradited to the USA for trial.

  2753. "WHO is looking to discriminate against people", in other words. Jeez. Why stigmatize someone for not being willing to take a vaccine by making sacrifices to protect people that are unwilling to sacrifice themselves? That's the boat i'm in. We have a voluntary-based vaccination program in my country, and I'm not willing to handle the potential side-effects of a vaccine to protect a population that couldn't care less if they, people around them or the collective died. It should be obligatory or not rolled out, in my opinion. Or if it is rolled out, don't stigmatize people.
    2
  2754.  @slyman6666  Because they've been working a year to develop these vaccines and many corporations are at similar stages in their clinical trial..? There's nothing shady about that. What's shady is that WHO seems to be floating the idea that people should be stigmatized for not vaccinating, to push countries and citizens to vaccinate people. I'm personally in favor of obligatory vaccination, but WHO getting involved to this degree comes across as questionable.

  2756.  @ancientbear3280  Maybe because the democratic gun control in Chicago is weak? Maybe because the federal and state laws in most states allowed gun distribution across states, leading to dangerous people and criminals taking advantage of it? Gun control laws work in most of the world. Even in countries where broad gun ownership is allowed, such as in Switzerland.

  2759. Not really. Islamic countries are opposed to immigration. They're opposed to all forms of elements and signs that could be seen as a threat to their nation and culture. If placing people in reeducation camps or sentencing groups to execution is a necessity to uphold stability, no matter what groups the policies are impacting, these Islamic countries would be doing it. That's why they're quiet about China, because China are handling threats and are closely cooperating at a diplomatic and financial level with the muslim world.

  2763. If running aground is this high of a risk, you can question if it's even worth permitting these massive freight ships to travel through this canal. Look at the oil- and goods prices skyrocketing after this. Look at all the wasted time. You either need two separate cancels to be dug out somehow, or solely accept smaller cargo ships.

  2764. Another clownish theory. I hope you're joking 😂 There's way too many believing in the idea that a "great reset" was some type of preplanned political action by insidious governments.

Finding pearls, cleaning/polishing them, and trying to sell them off to the rich tourists who occasionally visits, likely coming from the countries that decreased the prevalence of oyster pearls in the first place.

  2769.  Rah Mat  It is an act of terror, possibly state-sponsored terror (I doubt some random run-of-the-mill actor would've managed to assassinate an higher-up and secret Iranian official in the capital of Iran). The hypocritical part is that Turkey and Syria are two nations indulging and defending terrorism on an almost unfathomable scale. So they ought to stay quiet to not embarrass themselves.
    2
  2770. Russia is quite authoritarian and are good friends with most of Asia, including China. So this isn't surprising at all.
    2
  2771. I'm not a big fan of Russia. But I despise many of the arbitrary and restrictive international treaties, "laws", declarations and conventions. So I can see why a sovereign country wishes to let their own jurisdiction take precedence. You can't remove threats and dangerous actors ASAP while blindly adhering to international law and "human rights".
    2
  2772. Better than hurting people or brainwashing one's children, as many other religious festivities and rituals entails. Christmas is mostly a harmless, beautiful and unifying holiday that many cherishes. Trees are replanted and some grow back. It's a whole industry that engages in forest management to provide the christmas trees annually. I don't think it's that's harmful.

  2773. My Australian brothers has put up with so much annoyances and restrictions the past year when handling the coronavirus. Much respect. I wish you a wonderful christmas.

  2774. "across" "sham" Why are people upvoting this pseudoscientific nonsense?
    2
  2775. Indeed. Every mainstream media figure spun and constantly posted about the idea that Trump "colluded" with the Russians. With ZERO proof. Everyone just assumed that he was guilty until proven innocent (only possible in backwards banana republics). Many people got swept away and caught up in this illegitimate and unconstitutional investigation. So of course Trump should grant pardons to those involved, because it shouldn't ever have happened if the rule of law, decency and principles of fairness were followed. Even FBI contributed to this illegal sham by spying and breaking all codes of ethics. Shame.

  2780. UK believed in reaching natural herd immunity the first initial months, just like Sweden. The unethical and inhumane aspects of that strategy, it's a death trap. That the government didn't realize that is beyond me. They shifted approach eventually, but it was way too delayed.

Einstein predicted that WWIII would be fought with nuclear weapons and that WWIV would be fought with people's bare hands and sticks, or something along those lines. Seems like one step has been skipped.
    2
  2784. Encouraging people to drink alcohol and enabling that isn't sound to do. No one benefits long-term by that. Chocolate is also questionable. Just because people indulge in these items to an extreme extent, doesn't make this decision into a responsible one. There's no better time than now to slowly abandon the proliferation and consumption of drugs. But nope, European countries would never be willing to do so.

  2786. Japan is lonely, with tough expectations, widespread social media presence, and (from what I presume) widespread use of prescriptions when they don't need it (or too early), and risky contraceptives. These are some factors to think about and handle. Especially Japan, a country with immense issues related to suicide.

    2
  2789. He's alive because it'd be too costly for the Russian state to neutralize him.
    2
  2790. It's safe from what we know, with minimal side-effects. Long term side-effects can't be ruled out, but the alternative of not vaccinating is more dangerous than doing so.
    2
  2791. Thailand has lots of dirty and corrupt aspects in their society to rectify. Not to mention to abhorrent monarchy that ought to be restructured or prohibited. Hope the protesters succeeds in their cause.
    2
  2792. Maybe. Hopefully the state don't mess up that opportunity too, as they have done with most areas related to the economy in the past. The country is in a cemented recession, suffering brain drain and from debt.
    2
  2793. Just a heads up for those cheering on this move: Corporations are fleeing from Argentina. The majority of the country's residents wants to leave the country. Investors and businessmen are deterred from establishing in the country. The state has an immense national debt (growing), a broken private sector and budget deficits that has resulted in prolonged crises. This policy of seizing assets from the top will only exacerbate their engrained economic issues. They're a failed depleted welfare state that don't create any wealth, prosperity or a sustainable market.
    2
  2794. The ex-interior minister in Niger, Mohamed Bazoum, is part of the "Nigerien Party for Democracy and Socialism". Is more revolutionary politics and democracy where mob rules dictates policy the solution to the unrest and instability that tend to hold Africa captive? I truly doubt it. It's been tried before.
    2
  2795. Can't stand this strict and slightly conceited reporter. Her sometimes biased statements doesn't help either. Not sure why she's so praised.
    2
  2796. Not to mention the riots by white liberals and blacks in USA. $2b in property damage, dozens of deaths and hundreds injured police officers/residents. Why? Because riots erupted after a perpetrator had died by his own action. Can you imagine that.
    2
  2797. Doesn't look great when one of the most advanced and safe countries on earth, Norway, can't defend their own territory from foreign breaches and trespassers.
    2
  2798. Why can't every country mobilize and respond like China? Detect a few cases of coronavirus, close down the city entirely, enforce curfews, tests millions of people in a few days, and apply all safety precautions. That's how you react to a pandemic. Asian countries knows how to do it. However, China's initial response to the virus was horrid. Censored and punished doctors, stayed quiet, and encouraged their citizens to purchase PPP and masks abroad in a burning crisis starting to spread. They need to be held accountable.
    2
  2799. The ex- crown prince says that he won't be silent and that he'll challenge the Jordanian authorities further after this arrest. Bold. Wouldn't be surprised if he's tortured and placed behind bars for the rest of his life now.
    2
  2800. China wouldn't be as much of a threat if they didn't use their political leverage to support communist states and turn a blind eye to global destabilization.
    2
  2801. Deregulation, poverty, and the prolonged inability to eradicate the groups indulging in drug trade
    2
  2802. Modern problems calls for modern & drastic solutions. How cute.
    2
  2803. "66 million prosecutors", that's a clever way of referring to the loud mob of critics that opposes everything you do. Innovative. I can see why people are protesting if they're not compensated for staying in curfews, studying at home, or for being furloughed. Is that why they're protesting though? Unclear.
    2
  2804. They're literally reporting on the facts and medical reports from the US. If you're denying the rapid spread and death rate in the US and in the world, you may be living in a different world. Wake up.
    2
  2805.  @joey3291  Did the country and its citizens pray for that, or outlier individuals on the internet? And isn't it true that many corporations has moved their businesses from China to India and other Asian nations due to the increased costs of manufacturing and living in China?
    2
  2806. An important note: This is held in Saudi Arabia and no countries has issued any complaints or criticism of that, which will serve to benefit KSA's image and national status. Or maybe i'm overanalyzing.
    2
  2807. That's why they ended up in a covid ward in the first place, likely.
    2
  2808. It's quite insane when you think about it. Large swathes of humanity were at peace in the beginning of 2020. Then the outbreak sparked and everything changed fundamentally. People's behavior had to be adjusted, societies were closed down, panic arose by mass purchasing toilet paper/food, people became desperate to socialize resulting in breaches of recommendations and riots, and people are realizing that nothing will ever be the same. Consumption habits may change. Social distancing may become the norm. Appreciating what you have will be easier. Becoming aware of the effects of one's decisions, conduct and analyzing one's surroundings is expected. Goes to show how rapidly things can change.
    2
  2809. Mutations are a thing. The mutations didn't occur in China.
    2
  2810.  @ryunsho3603  These conspiracy theorists won't be able to answer that in a sensible manner. Not worth listening to.
    2
  2811.  @yangleezhao908  I don't think you know what the term "corruption" means
    2
  2812. This happens when you build a country based on fundamentalist islam, housing jihadists in your country and appealing to vocally extreme groups with repulsive intentions. When you let people protest and riot because a foreign European leader cracks down upon islamist radicalization and violence.
    2
  2813. This isn't about Britain and Australia. It's about Canada and Britain. Two countries with a huge GDP and production rate. Even if you include Australia in the equation, the point still stands. While Asia may be huge, these countries and the West does have a massive influence and capacity. Brokering deals with that part of the market is crucial.
    2
  2814. Is the group being assimilated really part of the Han Chinese's "countrymen"?
    2
  2815. EU loves consuming meat and dairy. They're a European force, so India won't ever get involved ;)
    2
  2816. Even if that's true, it's probably not related to the vaccine, may've been her natural reaction after seeing a needle injected to her, may've been due to underlying conditions, and IS NOT representative of the 99,99% of those taking the vaccine. So why bring this up other than to cause panic on false grounds?
    2
  2817. Lions making a small sacrifice to save themselves and the herd, including the selfish sheep that only care for themselves, under the false presumption that vaccines would be "dangerous":
    2
  2818. Castration with consent? Consent shouldn't have to be a condition, but rather force. Come on now. Why not just impose the death penalty against rapists? India should do the same, they've got a HUGE problem with barbaric rape.
    2
  2819. IT's not like the army has that much to choose from. Their money and allies are running out, and the riots grows stronger. I can see the desperation.
    2
  2820. Nope. But many rebel militias in the middle east are celebrating because Biden gave them the opportunity to receive increased influence now. Just look at Yemen and the insurgents there.
    2
  2821. 2020 was just the beginning if these new waves and strains of the virus turns out to be more deadly and unable to be vaccinated against. That'd be very alarming.
    2
  2822.  @BrotherHood-xh9sg  What are they advocating for anyway? Open border feminism and more kittens in society?
    2
  2823. Ye. This isn't on Amazon nor an Amazon policy. When you drive in the middle of nowhere, far away from the city or local areas, at an isolated rural area, do you really expect toilets to be readily available everywhere? Sounds like truckers in tandem with Amazon has to plan their routes and daily routines better.
    2
  2824. Amazon is one of the workplaces with quite good benefits and decent working conditions when you take a look at the requirements to vote there and since they pay at least $15/h to every worker. I'm sure it's very monotone and physically difficult to work there though. Long days. Lots of carrying weight with pure muscle. Few breaks. But I can also see why Amazon are dismissing the complaints when they treat the employees better than many other corporations in the USA. Although maybe that says more about America and its current market conditions as a whole..
    2
  2825. The little drone looks like a minimal fly. Can you really call that a helicopter? Jokes aside, props to NASA. Lots of revelations and steps forward being made.
    2
  2826. If there's indications that a person may threaten another citizen or the country, reports and arrest must be made. Self-explanatory really. Everyone should be able to agree upon that.
    2
  2827. Would love to visit UAE and Dubai someday. Seems like heaven on earth in terms of security and how advanced the civilization is with a bunch of high-tech skyscrapers and booming sectors.
    2
  2828. The Indian FM should ask why Russia is sending troops to Ukraine again. Tone down the imperialism.
    2
  2829. Watch China's retaliatory tariffs, condemnations and bans on Indian apps/companies as a response. These trade wars are sad and counterproductive. But in some ways understandable if security related worries is involved.
    2
  2830. Not necessarily in a way that neutralizes a vaccines efficacy. But yes, that risk is still there. It could happen. That's partially why European countries slaughtered millions of mink when a mutated virus started to spread there, which seems to have been immune towards the manufactured vaccines. Slightly different DNA-strains and versions of the coronavirus has been detected around the world.
    2
  2831. Japan is getting back into the business of warfare, after being forced by the USA to suspend all such activities after WWII. At least they aren't as brutal and aggressive these days, but rather standing up against an aggressive bully at seas. Props.
    2
  2832. Donna, there's way too many delicious products and substances that you can produce by using cattle such as cows. So the industry won't cease to exist. But, that doesn't imply that cows can't be treated with humane methods and kindness up until the slaughter process, or by letting some cows live.
    2
  2833. Jeez, this story raised a lot of eyebrows on this Indian channel. 162 comments in less than an hour on a quite trivial topic. Must be the love for cows, right?
    2
  2834. Shortages of testing kits has been a big issue in many countries. Partially due to natural shortages on the market, but also due to negligence, poor strategy and wrong priorities. Sweden is a good example of this. We barely tested initially, didn't track/quarantine anyone, really, and let anyone travel freely into Sweden. That's why they've got one of the worst per capita death rate in the world.
    2
  2835. Ignorant thing to say. The entire world will be infected and affected if one part of the world isn't immunized, unless you block off this one part of the problem that don't want to vaccinate themselves. Everyone is affected by this globalized issue. So it's not the darwinistic natural selection that you're calling for.
    2
  2836. These platforms should be investigated and regulated until they start upholding freedom of speech and an open debate, which they've actively stifled the past years by pressure from social interests groups and political NGOs. Even if the speech is uncomfortable, you can't just start blacklisting words on YouTube, remove users for expressing unconventional but factual ideas, and apply arbitrary and unclear enforcement. Same goes for Facebook, Twitter and other tech giants.
    2
  2837. China have a lot of flaws, but removing threats and establishing order in Hong Kong isn't one of them. Many HK residents are in fact very happy about peace finally being reimplemented. They're happy that the saboteurs and its apologists are being swept away. So am I.
    2
  2838. For supporting a group full of hostile and aggressive rioters. A group that you arguably could label as domestic terrorists. The US would've cracked down upon the group as well. So would India. So would any serious country looking to protect their citizens.
    2
  2839. No coming in contact with hidden bat caves, no need for cattle, and no need to care for weather. Sounds like the future of farming is here, right?
    2
  2840. Some policies that many Westerners would deem as "sexist" are biologically compatible, reasonable, effective and often preferred by both genders. Letting different tasks be handled by different genders. Upholding chastity and modest behavior for safety reasons, to prevent unwanted pregnancies, and to develop a moral compass that don't involve defending abortion and indecency, etc. Many examples.
    2
  2841. At which point do your religion cease to mean something, when you've gone on to change every single fundamental value that built your religion? Secular, leftist and the countries willing to change values when something new and dirty comes up are great examples here. From a religious point of view, they've become what they once swore to destroy.
    2
  2842. It's not even hypcocritical. The countries that obsess over gender inequality and equal rights in the 21st century tends to be unreligious with a state separated from the church. Countries that have downsized every religious value in existence in order to reconstruct (and destroy) what religion is all about. The Vatican and Pope has almost joined this change, by abandoning all conservative and decent values that religion used to have. In the undeveloped world, the opposite is true.
    2
  2843. Doesn't really matter if the suits are made if China, if they work and if their opponents has an inferior position by a lack of equipment and readiness. That dismissal at the end of the video wasn't really convincing. I do agree that no parties in this dispute wants war though. It's not practical or desirable. Everything would crash, stocks, global state of affairs, diplomacy and the planet, if nuclear states started a full-blown war with each in an escalating manner.
    2
  2844. Or maybe they have a dangerous amount of loyalty to India ;)
    2
  2845. Plenty of diversity picks there. Focusing so much on their background and gender is identity politics. Everybody has the ability to serve in these positions, (well, usually, but not when Biden's making the picks because race/gender background is mainly what matters to him) so value and obsession shouldn't be placed so much on their nationality or appearance.
    2
  2846.  @rulebreaker_xoii  A religious approach would be foolish and a death sentence. And your assertions are not right here. Lockdowns has worked in most nations that has applied them, if they've been imposed early on and strictly enough. Some countries has managed to open up and return to their normal way of life because of the measures taken. England decreased spread significantly the past weeks through quarantines/curfews. It works, scientifically.
    2
  2847. That's very tough and frustrating to hear. Another toxic virus strain developing and starting to transmit rapidly in the country. It's good to hear that there's unity between the PM and opposition though. That's what's needed to keep the new mutation at bay, after all. Keeps your heads up, Brits. You'll get through this.
    2
  2848. The individualist decadent lover ;)
    2
  2849. USA hasn't got the higher number of coronavirus related deaths per capita. Use the proper methodology when determining which country has been hit the worst, anything else is irresponsible.
    2
  2850. How so? If you're gonna object, do so in a proven and useful manner. These comments are so meaningless lol.
    2
  2851. Tacky that they're celebrating while the world is working to stay alive. But it's not the Chinese citizens fault. And the country has gotten control of the virus, so these celebrations are expected. Ah well. It's a bit tragic that China has benefitted the most by this deadly outbreak, economically, influence-wise and politically.
    2
  2852. No herd immunity then = More death. Way more death that we'd see if everyone vaccinated. So it's mindsets like these ones that justifies mandatory vaccination, frankly.
    2
  2853. They are insignificant when you look at the amount of administered vaccines and when you look at the risks of the alternative (letting the pandemic wreak havoc freely).
    2
  2854. Such content is already censored today. Russia has a specific map that indicates Russian territorial claims in areas internationally recognized as non-Russian territory. Maps are redrawn. Certain Wikipedia/journalistic sites are prohibited in some countries. All info is processed by certain states prior to receiving a green light. This is more about protecting children from scary and exploitative content though. Well--needed, in every country.
    2
  2855. Doesn't matter what you personally believe you can handle. This is about protecting children from graphic content, violence and bullying. Nobody in their right mind opposes that. Come on now.
    2
  2856. Good. All attempts of reconciliation and sustained peace should be welcomed.
    2
  2857. Vandals, thugs and pirates would steal and obliterate them. Why should artifacts be sent back if their safety can't be ensured? If they were stolen during a time when everyone stole items?
    2
  2858. Price inflation of a product like this could only ever happen in the capitalist and affluent world 😂
    2
  2859. That he "worked for foreign nations" is a made-up ploy used by authorities to criticize him. He was poisoned, ended up in a coma, and now he's jailed, partially, for "violating parole rules by not attending to an appointment/meeting with the authorities". He couldn't attend...because he was in coma lol
    2
  2860. Depends who you are asking.
    2
  2861. Huh? There's no comments of criticism here lol
    2
  2862. Sparked by an illegal wildfire, according to reports. Some fires last year were sparked by smokers and vandals as well. The increased temperature globally and in Australia making the landscapes dry and wildfires more likely to spread, are also some reasons for this. But NOT the only reason, as some claim.
    2
  2863. Disgraceful. Especially when terror attacks by jihadists has occurred recently in Austria. Preventing the use of oppressive clothing that restricts and objectifies young girls and women is needed. But Austria, just like other weak progressive countries such as Sweden, Germany, are backing down here? Unbelievable. If you're opposed to subversion and dangerous religion, you have to remove all roots connected to it. That includes hijabs and scarves with religious connotations.
    2
  2864.  Shînïchī_しにち くど  Pandering and appealing to extreme fundamentalists will be the end of these countries. We Do Not Negotiate With Terrorists, as the US used to say.
    2
  2865. Apart from Sisi staging coups and enforcing sharia law from a superstitious perspective, he seems like a decent leader. But didn't he criticize Macron for his recent efforts in cracking down on jihadists?
    2
  2866. And that's applicable how? Providing data about the transmission, contraction and death rate and making decisions accordingly to protect the populace and decrease the spread is the logical route to take. That's what has been done here. The problem with the UK is that they closed down too late last year because they followed the Swedish approach of unethically trying to reach herd immunity through natural progression, which is a death sentence. UK opened up too rapidly without enough measures in place as well. But at least they're trying.
    2
  2867. The security personnel and military were perhaps part of the kidnapping group, bribed/recruited. Or, their presence is too weak and their authority too limited. Either way, lots of changes has to be made in Nigeria to crush these radicalized extremists and protect the populace.
    2
  2868. The Singaporian model is one of the most functioning and effective that we've seen throughout history. Stability is ensured, fantastic economic growth is seen, justice and the right sort of penalties against wrongdoing keeps the country and populace in check, and the country has very high levels of education and living. Corruption is almost rooted out as well. Singapore and Switzerland are some of the most impressive countries out there in my opinion.
    2
  2869. When the pandemic is over, I wouldn't be opposed to them being sanctioned or forced to pay reparations for the mess that they've created. For the destruction, loss of life and destroyed global economy.
    2
  2870. Neither Bezos or Musk deserves to be at the top with their cutthroat attitudes, misconduct and selfishness, honestly. But Musk has at least stated that his wealth will be use to improve humanity and explore Mars, which is fascinating. Sort of (hopefully) like what Bill Gates is doing.
    2
  2871. Between the new rule in Afghanistan, the directly affected actors, and the globe. The superpowers are always ready to step in and secure their interests.
    2
  2872. Phew. Now let's immunize the globe before we get an incurable strain..
    2
  2873. Ah, more sham and illegitimate investigations and judicial proceedings against seemingly innocent people. I hope that isn't allowed. We've had enough of such BS.
    2
  2874. Some form of deal will be inevitable. Both parties benefits by a strong relationship. Limited tariffs, trade barriers and paperwork during the distribution of goods is desirable.
    2
  2875. These imports better not include crude oil from Eastern Libya, controlled by entities waging a civil war in the country.
    2
  2876. Looks like the bike floats and that you may be able to use it as a raft.
    2
  2877. Again.
    2
  2878.  @miquelcanosasanteularia1678  Do you?
    2
  2879. Why are you screaming with caps lock activated..?
    2
  2880. Denmark couldn't have handled these infected minks much worse. Apart from not culling them at all. They killed 17M minks and buried them. Decomposition below earth resulted in gases and pollution spreading, resulting in a worsened wastewater. They now have to dig up all the minks and burn them.
    2
  2881. Very biased. All I see is pro-India news and provocative statements about Pakistan, China and the countries that criticizes China. India's own flaws are never raised.
    2
  2882. Sounds as if Trump is planning something very special prior to potentially being forced to leave the White House. Military usage abroad? Domestically? Lawsuits? Executive orders? We'll see.
    2
  2883. They've been trying to boycott French products because the president stood up for what's right. Against terrorism. Against extremism. Against violence. These Islamic groups in Pakistan's only policy proposal is to strengthen blasphemy laws. What a sad existence, with zero substance or contributions to humanity.
    2
  2884. India, China and Pakistan should drop these border disputes already. Why is it such a big deal to be involved in this region and keep on fueling the flames between nuclear powered states? The cost and risk of maintaining these conflict outweighs the benefits.
    2
  2885. Would Democrats ever be able to win if they didn't cheat by easing voter restrictions, letting everyone vote, and dismissing concerns about fraud? I highly doubt it. Not enough people are calling them out for this.
    2
  2886. It's part of global news. US is an important player for India and the global market. Who takes over the presidency in 2021 matters
    2
  2887. This. Turning the other cheek and setting the precedent that illegal immigration is permitted and that children can be exploited as anchors, isn't ideal. These judges should be removed from position of power.
    2
  2888. You sound like a good person. Props.
    2
  2889. And that has what to do with the video?
    2
  2890. India, the country where modern corporations are able to take advantage of cheap labor, mass production facilities and alright conditions on the market to make a bit profit by export. That's why corporations are leaving China and looking for a replacement, such as India.
    2
  2891. Iran are killing their own people, and some of these people (sometimes terrorists, radicals) are killed by Israel, CIA and their friends. Iran doesn't need to kill off their own people to find a reason to blame others. Iran are involved in several proxy wars, supports militant rebels, and are a threat to the world. That results in counterattacks against Iran every now and then.
    2
  2892. Damn, Iran is running out of luck lately. Hit after hit, strike after strike. They must be worried about what's coming next.
    2
  2893. Even though these protests are very legitimate and honorable, as opposed to the BLM looting where computers and TV devices were stolen by criminal fools because a convict lost his life. These Maga/pro-Trump protests are criticizing the lack of audits into the election. The silence by politicians, judges, media and the public when it comes to foreign interference and electoral fraud. If the media and the world should support any protest, it's the protest that were held at the Capitol Hill last night.
    2
  2894. They're being proactive and smart. They have the economic muscles to do this, and are preparing for the future. You can be jealous and critical of that, but Canada will likely benefit by this. If they don't need the vaccines, i'm sure they'll sell them off or donate them.
    2
  2895. By the cold climate and by making sure that the ice is handled carefully and placed in the right spots.
    2
  2896.  Arnav Sharma  And they may spread viruses. Or act as a physical threat to humans. Many animals are probably doing better behind an enclosure under human supervision too, compared with the brutal wilderness with few food sources and unstable conditions. We use animals to produce meat and receive food as well. Why would keeping them behind a fence or using them at circuses suddenly be off limits?
    2
  2897. The world would start an insurrection if that happened, since the Russians state would be the culprits in the crosshairs, not the virus. I think the Russian authorities are doing all they can to keep Navalny alive to prevent being sanctioned and condemned to death
    2
  2898. Many republicans are backing down and disavowing their support for Trump to save face and appear as 'credible' so they can run for president in future elections. Power and capital over principles.
    2
  2899. Correct. And do people still wonder why China did everything they could to get Biden into the White House?
    2
  2900.  @melblevins8419  The US needed a strongarm leader to make well-needed changes and improve. Biden is a centrist that won't do anything of value, frankly. Why would the US prefer that?
    2
  2901. He'll probably just prioritize trade, deescalation and give China the leverage to do whatever they want. To harass and provoke neighbours. We'll see.
    2
  2902. That's basically the argument often made. A bully tactic, if you will. Escalates tensions on the daily between many countries.
    2
  2903. Watch when the left and their BLM friends tries to use mental gymnastics to put the blame on the police officer once again. Or maybe the suspect wasn't black. They won't care at all then.
    2
  2904. Marxist "progressiveness", identity politics, 4th wave feminism, discrimination to reach one's political goals, and SJW politics happened. It's a shame to humanity that most people seem to not have a problem with what Biden and his associated are doing.
    2
  2905. If you're gonna go out hunting for birds and other animals, at least clean up your mess afterwards. Littering by leaving these munitions and bullets behind should be a criminal offence. So if these hunting organizations don't want to be criminalized, at least put in some effort to not pollute the environment when indulging in your recreational habits.
    2
  2906. A great, caring and a philanthropic man. RIP.
    2
  2907.  High School Teacher  Facts and data disagrees with you.
    2
  2908. Cutiepie girl meets wise old man
    2
  2909. Thailand and its neighbors are way more prepared these days. Personnel, technology that tracks and alarms about incoming waves, and education on what to do if a tsunami strikes. Details that'll save thousands in the future from catastrophes.
    2
  2910. Look, Biden's appointing traitors and globalists that couldn't care less about preserving civility and safety in the US. People that don't see the value in strong borders and control. Congrats America, you played yourself.
    2
  2911. Protip: Don't be a dissident in the worst system and most brutal country on earth unless you're looking to die. Don't challenge the norms in a suppressive state. These outcomes are inevitable otherwise.
    2
  2912. Ukraine once had nuclear weapons but still hasn't got a unitary system of waste management. Let that sink in. This is the first time in quite some time that we're hearing about Ukraine as well. Remember the impeachment scandal where some US officials allegedly tried to push Ukraine officials into investigating Biden's involvement in an Ukrainian company? Or what about the Russian mercenaries fighting against Ukrainian in the region of Donbass, has the ex-comedian president of Ukraine managed to solve that?
    2
  2913.  @quakecon2009  Yup. These aforementioned movements that have caused massive instability and chaos are friends with the media, politicians, interest groups, UN, corporations and the apolitical populace because of pure brainwashing and malicious political agendas. Reckoning will arrive at some point.
    2
  2914.  @narayanjeev  Right. And these platforms and those that praises these censorship tactics are the same type of people that tend to complain about radicalization, extremism and echo-chambers. They can't see that they're the culprits here by preventing a free debate. A fresh discourse where people are welcomed, rather than silenced and ostracized for every small perceived misstep. The dystopia is here.
    2

  2916. Africa and Asia needs to be blocked from the world until they manage to establish decisive control over these reprehensible groups that is a threat to any civilized country.

  2917. Apart from trade deals, some neoliberal pacts that benefits our economies and some security cooperation, I don't see what positive could come out of negotiating with Canada and its PM Trudeau.
    2
  2918. Putin isn't trying to achieve peace anywhere, he's trying to advance Russia's interests, push forward its position and plunder whatever he can. Actual peace in the world? That's not a Russian concern. They've amplified many wars and made many conflicts worse. Yet you're putting your trust in them? Jesus christ..

  2920. He likely died by a fentanyl overdose and the hallucinations that he projected against the police. He had several heart conditions and a poor health. The police did the right thing based on the circumstances.

  2921.  @shamikbhattacharjee7321  He's right. The Oxford vaccine has shown some questionable results, trials has been stopped a few times, and this new revelation would be in line with this. Why immediately assume that the person in the clinical vaccine trial is lying?
    2
  2922.  @kv7487  Why presume that the guy is making false claims when he likely have proof to back this up? Why would he lie about this? Why immediately pick the vaccine manufacturer's side?

  2923. At least they're doing something, which will have a positive impact. Going renewable step by step and restructuring society into a sustainable direction ought to be welcomed. Every project counts.

  2924. I think they just targeted some front figure in ISIS group that they probably had intelligence on. Alternatively, some higher-up/anonymous militant who celebrated the Kabul bombings.
    2
  2925. Could be an aggressive Taliban fighter as well, you know. They're not that different from ISIS or AL Qaeda in their tactics and harsh desires. And we should hope that the Taliban don't continue with their brutal terror if the US leaves the territory. Afghanistan will be worse off, severely, if that were to occur.

  2926. You seriously don't think that Russia's state of affairs, economic output, trade agreements and foreign policy don't affect the rest of the world? Naive.
    2
  2927. They will. The cartels will take over the market or keep on selling on the black market. That's what happens every single time a legalization bill is passed in a country. But people seem completely oblivious to that.
    2
  2928.  @oggamer3737  Doesn't matter if one public official or country used that as a reason to ban drugs. The fact of the matter is that most countries ban the drug because it's dangerous. Just like how alcohol and tobacco is (and should be banned), but they're too normalized. Continuously legalizing risky substances isn't the way to go in a civilized country.
    2
  2929. Most republicans may still have their backbone intact, and won't play into this meaningless political charade. So it won't work. But the media and the Dems will claim that it did work, and that Trump was "impeached twice". If you couldn't abuse and use the impeachment tool to your advantage, Trump would've never been "impeached". There were no valid reason to do so.

  2930. These birth rates are seen all over the Western world where liberal democracy and liberation movements dictates everything. There's an easy solution to this. Strengthen families through external pressure and policies exerted by the state. Bring in migrant workers to boost GDP and replace the shortage of workers and hinder a deteriorating welfare system. And lastly, increase the immigration rates, but do so in a way that Singapore would–by strict requirements, surveillance, and clear guidelines that everyone has to follow. Japan and South Korea would greatly benefit by this.

  2933.  @southbeachgaming5461  Every study on the topic points out the organ defects, lung-related health complications, one's concentration deteriorating, laziness increasing, and brain damage caused by drug usage. Not to mention to addiction that severely destroys families, one's career/prospects, the nation's health, and morale. The healthcare department being strained by the increase of health issues sweeping the nation. Makes no sense not to oppose and restrict these activities from undermining the people and nation's best interests.

  2934. He has been very poorly treated if you look at the Mueller/Russia witch hunt that every channel parroted as if it were true for years. True character assassination, libel claims, and personal attacks day in day out, on false premises. So I can relate to why he's upset about that.
    2
  2935. Defunding/abolishing the police does also include reallocating resources to redundant departments, replacing police officers with social workers, removing qualified immunity, shaming the police and downsizing its power. That's what Biden is willing to do. Why is Wallace unwilling to acknowledge that, which is what Trump is trying to tell him?
    2
  2936. It's China fault, mainly, yes. It is what it is. China shouldn't have enabled this to occur with their careless and selfish policies.
    2
  2937. The best? Nope. But better than some European and South American countries yes? If we for example translate Sweden's per capita rate and adjust it to the US population, Sweden would have ~175k+ deaths, while the US sits at ~143k. That's an uncomfortable fact, especially to the Democrats who sees Sweden as their desirable societal model.

  2938. I'd trust a quintessential politician even less.
    2
  2939. I'd vote for him if he strengthened the war on drugs, just like we're doing in Asia through zero tolerance, strict repercussions and by eliminating crime. Shame that Kamala and Biden switched stance by standing behind drug-addicts, traffickers, criminals, and gangs instead. But that's what to expect from leftist train of thought.

  2940.  udayan biswas  Don't go conspiratard about it. YouTube are demonetizing pretty much every video on this platform. Content critical of China isn't being deliberately restricted. That's a blatant lie by people trying to make things up for political or conspiratorial reasons.

  2942. Wouldn't more centralization technically solve that too? Or are you calling for the decentralization of Lima?
    2
  2943. What's the problem in some aggressive criminals that defies the cops receiving a taste of their own medicine? People bashing cops and every police department are indirectly defending criminals and terrorists looking to take over our nation. Who cares if serial convicts are removed and rendered harmless to protect the society?

  2944. Nah, that's probably nostalgic bias speaking.
    2
  2945.  @paganlecter6819  The Swedish green party in government has pushed for the abolishment of nuclear energy with the removal of our nuclear reactors. Just like in Germany. More dirty energy sources will compensate for the energy shortage, a policy that we often see by the Greens, supported by Greta.
    2
  2946.  @drunkensailor3736  The US isn't involved in Yemen. Sure, they may sell weapons to Saudi Arabia and UAE; but they're not the culprits in the civil war. The terrorist Houthi rebels are. They're blocking shipments and has seized a leaking oil tanker to extort the Yemeni government and the international world into giving concessions. They've bombed their neighbouring countries and domestic entities. They've slaughtered innocent Yemeni residents. Trump, UAE, or the Saudis, aren't the actors doing anything wrong here. It's the Houthis. Trump's and the Saudi critics should try and acknowledge that fact. The fact of the matter is that the US hasn't declared war, has slowly withdrawn their troops, and has neutralized some front figures of terrorist movements around the world. It's valid to give credit where credit is due here.

    2
  2956. Justice and law enforcement is very important to prevent a violent situation seen in Honduras, El Salvador and Mexico where criminal networks, cartels, and psychopathic murderers wreaks havoc with almost impunity. Hugging these people isn't the policy that works, hence why people support someone like Duterte and his political priorities.
    2
  2957. China and Russia (and their socialist allies) openly turning a blind eye to evasion of sanctions, illegal trade, trafficking, and strengthening the position of rogue unpredictable tates with nuclear weapons that may be launched at any time....yeah, nobody should be surprised. That's why all of these countries should be treated as pariahs until they start behaving in a legitimate manner that benefits rather than destroys the world.
    2
  2958. Shouldn't be that difficult to calculate that providing special rights, positions and leadership roles to unqualified individuals, solely based on race, without fixing the roots of the problems such as fairly raising the level of education, crushing crime, creating a prosperous/stimulative and safe business culture where people are willing to reside at...will cause immense chaos. But we see the same policies being suggested today because some criminal died, that led to rabid movements forming regarding "racial injustice". The outlook for this country isn't great ATM.
    2
  2959. Releasing criminals and letting these senseless and psychopathic individuals relapse and continue on with their deranged lifestyles won't solve much, quote the opposite. It'll amplify the issue. We need to go tougher on crime.

  2960. Switzerland, the most prosperous, successful and richest country in the world.

  2961. Interesting perspective on the factors causing polarization. Social medias and its many echo-chambers does likely have a ton of influence when it comes to reaffirming people's beliefs as well, something perhaps worth mentioning.
    2
  2962.  @Romer70  Middle Eastern countries aren't that bad if you behave, are religious and follow the doctrine/laws ascribed. The economy is usually a whole lot better in the Middle east, at least in the relatively stable nations, since they aren't communist-esque hellholes like Belarus.
    2
  2963. Cheaper? Poor decision making? Not sure. It makes no sense. Germany should be the country trying their best to set a good precedent, be a good example, and transition into green energy reliance entirely. Wouldn't be dependent on Russia then. Anyone know why they decided otherwise?

  2964. Why do people always have to assume that money is involved when presenting a political view, speculations or videos about geopolitics? So pointless.

  2967. Venezuela, neo-commies/marxists inspirational societal model.

  2968. This video and compiled setbacks does admittedly not look good for Trump. But in the end, his tactics on the market led to him becoming one of the most successful persons in America if we look at his amassed wealth, status of fame, and the opportunities he's had. I think the average American capitalist (the value that built America) sees themselves in him, wishes that they could be him and that they could experience the things that he's experienced. That's why he's elected, and supported. He stands for equal opportunity and the principle that anything is achievable through enough effort put in. An embodiment of the american dream.
    2
  2969. "New Germany of Europe" lmaooo 😂. Spot on 😂
    2
  2970. What sort of freedoms and democratic values are you longing for? The main problem I have with China is their expansionist foreign policy that jeopardizes global peace. Their support for communist countries abroad, and glorification of Mao at home. That sub-par standards of living and fraudulent techniques on the market becomes the norm.

  2973.  @andreaszimmermann6200  And Switzerland is the safest, most prosperous country with the highest growth and is seen as the most desirable country on earth by many, many parameters. Is the conservative ideology that dominates the country, historically and today, a coincidence? 😂

  2974. Vegans has issues with malnutrition, mental illness and the cost/sustainability of the diet isn't realistic for people to uphold. Transitioning the meat/dairy market into a greener direction is the more reasonable and realistic approach.
    2
  2975. The vitamins and nutrition levels are great, and the healthiness of the product is considered as high, comprehensively. Abandoning dairy products and going vegan/vegetarian does often cause malnutrition, hinders development/growth and has many negative side-effects.

  2976. Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow is an autocratic president of the country, not a monarch. And we don't know that much about Turkmenistan, it's second to North Korea in being the most closed-off hermit state in the world.

  2977. Tsichanouskaja was a temporary activist and didn't succeed much. Can't be compared.

  2981. I don't get why Israeli leadership even are suggesting such imperialist nonsense instead of deescalating the tensions by causing permanent stability. Idiotic..
    2
  2982. A stable Israeli state would benefit the US more than anything else. The only reason that I can understand the US supporting further Israeli settlements and anexation may be to expand Israel's interests in the Middle Easy, which may impact Iran and its terror-allies in the region. Farfetched and risky, but you never know with the US.
    2
  2983. Even Huawei's CEO admitted that the company has indulged in a whole lot of spying, intellectual property theft, unfair trade practises and support/oversight by the Chinese Communist Party. I don't want such companies to receive influence in trade, data tracking and western influence. So I can see the criticism and sanctioning going on.

  2986. It'll never happen. But way too many people still believe that it will. That utopian dream that many enforce by coercion and shameless propaganda will be maintained unless something drastic is done. Sweden is still taking in a ton of people.

  2988. Subtlety connecting with her community to hide the tracks.

  2990.  @muhammadnurfaiz8743  The cleric is seen as an extremist. Gatherings during a pandemic is NOT acceptable, for obvious reasons. And his supporters burned down and attacked police officers and were armed a few days ago. They deserved to be punished. One could wonder why you left out these important details.

  2991. Keeping the fish as trophies sounds a bit outdated, no? Are these trophies released at some point as well to uphold the lake's food chain? 😂
    2
  2992. Surprising right? Especially after the government started to expropriate their property and prosecute them based on their race, which led to mass evacuation from the country. And with the hyperinflation, corruption and mismanagement of the country, living there isn't very attractive.

  2993. Argentina should reimplement a ban or stricter regulation against abortion. Can't believe that they so shamelessly legalized that a few weeks ago. Why does almost nobody with liberal/communist ideals have value for life, children and decency?

  2995.  @wo7925  Few irregularities has been detected, showcasing that Biden may've been advantageous in some close swing states, which might have shifted the outcome in favor of Dems. Also, the Dems has eased voter restrictions and paid plenty of criminals to vote. Guess which party is supported by criminal culprits and illegal migrants without voter IDs or a legal status? It isn't red.

  2997. Lol what the heck are you talking about, UK has one of the weakest and most lenient police forces in the world. Why lie?

  2998. What exactly are they even protesting for? The withdrawn suggestion for increased taxes on public transport? You're not a "political prisoner" if you get caught using bombs, violence and extremist radicalism to achieve political goals, you'll be penalized for your actions accordingly. I doubt 99% of those who've been arrested and punished has been set up, seems like a farfetched framing. I bet the civilized population are demanding and wishing that Pinochet-era policies are brought back. Back when the country flourished.
    2
  2999. Let me guess: They were arrested for doing their work. For criticizing poor economic planning inside of Citgo, a state-owned corporation mismanaged severely. For objecting Maduro's illegitimate power, his corruption, money printing, hiring of thugs and the country's appalling state of affairs. They're used as political ploys to spite the United States, because Venezuela's government are jealous, broken, and desperate. What a country

  3000.  @christmas222  What makes you think that it isn't an ongoing pandemic? Is all the data surrounding coronavirus deaths made up? Have companies closed down and ended up bankrupt on their own volition in the countries that didn't shutdown? You're living a lie and people are hurting because of it. The pandemic is very much documented and ongoing, and has to be countered to mitigate its side-effects. Experts and researchers all over the world has talked about it. Hospitals are flooded with patients. The media, all across the political spectrum, are thoroughly documenting every detail about it. And you decide to deny its existence? Just ridiculous.
    2
  3001. Stop trivializing the deaths, infections and destruction that this pandemic has caused and still is causing. It's going to be impossible to reason with someone who've based their worldview on lies and made-up propaganda, but you should consider re-evaluating. Your attitude hurts people.
    2
  3002. Lol. International courts, organizations and the UN has initiated more war crime trials, sanctions, and condemnations against Israel, a quite stable and calm democracy who usually respects human rights (if that's what you're into), than they've done against most of the brutal regimes out there. Says a whole lot about the political biases involved in these exaggerated processes. The Palestinians and their tyrannical government are no angels. Far from it.
    2
  3003. Everyone is leaving California, but it isn't due to their wildfires, but rather high tax rate. Musk left recently, corporations are moving to red states, and the rich avoids California like the plague. Good on them for taking climate change seriously though. We'll need a federal plan for it, a state won't be enough, but it's a good start. Limiting the use of grills is also important: "According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), grills are the cause of more than 10,000 house fires each year, on average — resulting in $149 million in property damage." And unhealthy smoking can cause wildfires. Will the a Dem governor handle these latter flaws though? Unlikely. Same goes for GOP, frankly.
    2
  3004. The people clearly don't want to do anything, can't do anything, are simply too complacent or may lack the education to do anything worthwhile against this. I almost feel like it's justified for some intervention in these countries by strong foreign powers/institutions to reassert control is the only option.

  3005. Individuals such as yourself are the manipulators and they'll one day be held accountable for misinforming the populace and posing a societal risk by undermining health protocol, the importance in vaccination, and the importance in decreasing/eliminating virus transmission.

  3008. Yeah, because socialists has dragged up people from poverty and historically created a bunch of opportunities, right? Nah. That's why he was voted in.
    2
  3009. Right...but it's difficult not to chose and to vote out a corrupt quasi-dictator that cheats in election to stay in power. It's also difficult for an uneducated and impoverished populace to make the right decision. The problem with Venezuela is the leadership's naive belief in socialism, and Iran, Cuba, Russia and China's support for the illegitimate government. This is a clear example of destabilization through domestic- and foreign policy.
    2
  3010. Look, the attorney general is a cop hater and a crime apologist. Who could've guessed. During his appointment proceedings, he tried to claim that acts of terrorism couldn't be committed during night unless specific quotas were met. He also couldn't answer any questions related to immigration, even though that's one of the biggest areas that he'll have to handle. A joke.
    2
  3011. Disinfecting a large crowd of people? Well, at least it's better than not intervening at all. But enforcing curfews would be much more effective. Maybe not practical in the poor countries with a lack of capacity though.
    2
  3012. It makes no sense that not every country is imposing a nightly curfew. It's just common sense. Nobody, apart from first responders, needs to be outside after ~7pm or so. Not using curfews will only worsen the spread.
    2
  3013. Banishing people for witchcraft sounds like modern day witch hunts, since I doubt that every person banished for being a deceptive and fraudulent person trying to brainwash others by imaginary "witchcraft" is guilty. Accuse someone of witchcraft and you can justify whatever you want. Not great. Would like to know more about this.
    2
  3014. Because many democratic legislators opposed the mass spending plan consisting of redundant spending and minimum wage hikes, which won't solve the country's problems. And because some legislation in the Senate requires a 60/40 vote, unless the filibuster is suspended or exempted from a vote, the latter may've applied to this vote if I recall correctly.
    2
  3015. Seems like you're right: "Health benefits of donating blood include good health and reduced risk of cancer and hemochromatosis. It helps in reducing the risk of damage to liver and pancreas. Donating blood may help in improving cardiovascular health and reducing obesity." Interesting. Not everyone can nor should donate blood though.
    2
  3016. Nobody wanted to have this war. It was initiated for a reason, because the civilized (in some regards) world were attacked.
    2
  3017. People tend to have more control and freedom in a capitalist system if we take a look at the world today and historically. So your statement is quite misleading. The people control very little under socialism. Not to mention the lack of opportunities, poverty, shortages and famines that socialist doctrines almost always enables. We need a balance. No system in itself ensures that the climate is protected. Specific regulations and a direct determination to maintain a clean nature, a decent economic growth and high standards of living, would be ideal and would definitely lead to good effects for everybody. Some countries are taking this seriously. The oil rich countries along with China, Russia, China and India, are not taking it as seriously.

  3018.  Modi Superpooper 2020  You think that seriously compares to all the innovations and contributions that the West has added the past centuries compared with the rest of the world?

  3020. Thousands has fled and been killed in the Ethiopian conflicts. How is that not a matter of concern for the world, if the exodus, bloodshed and resource/food shortages literally impacts the world?

  3021. Vaccinations in the West are spiking. Immunity among the masses is closely inbound. The tourism sector will probably kickstart quite rapidly after that. Especially if safe travel and vaccine passports becomes a thing post-corona.
    2
  3022. You can't secede and arbitrarily draw lines to take over territory as you wish in nation states. That's called terrorism and is highly treasonous. Learn to live under the jurisdiction in harmony and take advantage of the opportunities given to you, instead of just destroying things.
    2
  3023. And once again, the violent insurgents are surging. We need a Pinochet.
    2
  3024. A full-blown civil war and chaotic situation comparable to Syria will probably not be seen in Myanmar. The authorities cracking down on relatively small groups of protesters isn't a civil war, and is commonplace in many countries.

  3025. Residents and politicians across the world complain about electoral fraud all the time. But when US and their leaders demands an investigation into electoral fraud, they're dismissed as conspiracy theorists and the culprits for everything wrong in the world associated with elections. How come people can't see this?

  3029. I wonder if these protesters has any idea of the fact that we're in a pandemic at the moment. They're laying on the street next to each other, roaming around in close vicinity to other citizens, and exacerbating the virus outbreak. Why? For no good reason as far as I know.

  3030.  @andrewchr  You're right. Although i've heard corrections of that 300K soldier figure. Seems to be way lower (~50K). The figure has been inflated with shadow soldiers (inexistent soldiers on the state's official payroll) and miscalculation.

  3031. I don't like his islamic leanings, way of organizing a coup d'état, and way of sometimes going too far. But he's got a harsh iron grip on the country, which keeps it stable. He's in favor of assimilation, even for people visiting or joining an exodus to Europe. If you're conservative leaning, you'll likely enjoy the policies instigated by force in Egypt.

  3038.  @megapeiron  Bolsonaro prioritizes arbitrary civil rights and freedom over security, over the well-being of his people and the collective's strength. He doesn't care that people are dying in stacks by the corona because he prefers a growing economy and zero closures in society, over preventing the virus and its side-effects. He doesn't care that the Amazon burned on a rapid scale because some billionaire capitalist makes money by it and because some treasonous lobbyist is pleased by Bolsonaro. He needs to drop this level of libertarianism.

  3039. Closing down ski resorts in the entire of Europe doesn't seem like a mutual vision. I do have to for once concede and congratulate Merkel for at least trying to do what's right in this case though.

  3040. Has the city and its buildings been built to mitigate the effects of earthquakes? Is the population informed and educated on how to handle these catastrophes? That's something important for every country prone to experience natural cataclysms. Sorry to hear what happened in Croatia. Hope the damage was very limited.

  3041. Africa in a nutshell. Thousands dead and millions displaced due to the government lacking the ability to control a growing separatist insurgent group. It's the same story every single time even though all of the aid, military support and time that has been delivered to these countries. Saddening to hear.

  3042.  @michaelmcfeely6588  Yeah. We have to take the Gulf state approach and reject our generous policy that has resulted in welfare deterioration, crime, culture shifts and terrorism. Time to secure our borders and own prosperity. We can provide some assistance, technology and various forms of support to build up their home countries and stabilize their continents, but that's it. The world's problems should not be placed on one continent.

That mostly failed, but don't blame those attempting to improve things when there's real culprits out there.

  3049.  @Arnisho  Probably because he thought he'd get in deep trouble for incompetently lying (about a case that wasn't illegal in the first place), if he didn't take the plea deal and admit what he did. He said that he got duped. Either way, most people caught up in this witch hunt were innocent in actuality. It's an illegitimate investigation that wouldn't have happened in a country that values the concept of innocent until proven guilty and fair treatment by the judiciary.

  3051. Nah. NATO is stronger than ever before. Europe is essentially intact if you look at military cooperation and safety across the board. Nobody cares about what Putin thinks about Brexit. Brexit had nothing to do with him and likely won't impact Europe that noticeably in the end. I assume UK will turn into a country equivalent to Norway or Switzerland .

  3052. People will still fall sick and receive side-effects by corona even if you ban unhealthy activities (which should be banned, for sure). Hospitals would still be overflooded. So you'd still have to put in efforts to get control of the virus and minimize the damage. Just banning a bunch of self-destructive tendencies/industries isn't enough, and is a very simplified view of what's going on.

  3053.  @jijoahmed2063  That doesn't imply that the USA can or should accept every migrant without any checks or restrictions. Labor migrants and a limited form of relative migration is fine and all, but it becomes a problem when you're overly accepting of everyone, ignores ID checks, and opens up the borders. That jeopardizes national security.

  3055. These ministers and military are not using their power and influence to "kill and destroy" people randomly. Only the dangerous threats are targeted. If you sympathize with dangerous threats, you know, terrorist militias, fundamentalist extremists, and those using violence to insert their fringe values, seeking assistance by a therapist may be appropriate. I do concede that improper decisions and war declarations has occurred in the past by USA, and many others. But that's not the norm and not standard practise, and can therefore not be seen as such.

  3056. EU's political desires, such as pushing countries to take in migrants, follow stifling economic provisions, and enforcing leftist social policy won't concern the UK anymore. The costs of staying in the union will cease. Self-determination and competitiveness is back. Long-term, the country will likely benefit.

  3057.  Nick Bointon  Exactly. I look at religion this way: Uphold most of the moral principles, but disband it from society and let scientific consensus dictate policy and societal responses during tough times.

He ended himself because he likely knew that it was over for him, or because someone else knew that the Epstein trial would shake the world (the theory that he was murdered is an interesting one). You can't play so innocent when you've been together and lived with a person who seems to have been involved in many unethical and illegal things.

  3060. Wouldn't be surprising if the conflict has ceased in the incoming couple of days. Ethiopia has moved up north quick with their army and neutralized all threats. Eritrea is also on Ethiopia's side these days. It's a shame that huge refugee streams were the result of this though.

  3064.  @benghazi4216  The West holds many elections and many Western countries have difficulties forming principled coalition governments. Parties tend to shape a coalition with their respective opposition parties. My comment here was a half-joke about the annoyance in having to have constant elections, leading to division and a hard time creating a stable government. This, as opposed to the countries that holds no election or holds election on symbolic posts and then carries on as if nothing happened, with no time wasted.

If you intervene, the culprit or unstable civilian may be handled by too much force even though it may've not been justified. The most effective approach to take would arguably be to prevent the factors that leads to psychiatric shortcomings in the first place, and prioritize the public's welfare rather than the welfare of a few unstable individuals at the expense of the public. That may be seen as cynical on the surface, but is it really?

But we must acknowledge that many countries, leaders and populations are starting to take this issue seriously too.

Not trying to play defense for a fossil fuel company, but it's not certain that this ruling was appropriate. I'd like to know more info.

  3119. They've been governing the country in the style they're doing right now for a long time. Their grip on power is strong. Their financial situation even better.

I don't think the state will fall, even though some police officers and government officials are turning their backs.

  3121. Hmm..wonder why. Could it be because Iran threatens to wipe out other countries as if it's completely normal? Could it be because they're an unpredictable, unstable and rogue stats full of radicalized imams and mullahs who controls the country? Their foreign policy of supporting rebels and militias? You're naive if you don't see their nuclear weapon proliferation is a threat.

But yes, you theoretically don't need to vote if you have a great and streamlined political system in place that benefits everyone. Sadly not everyone believes in the same type of system.

If you believe that, every democratic politician and leftist supporter incited violence and encouraged insurrection when BLM burned things down this summer after a criminal had died by police intervention. Where were the discussion of charging people for insurrection then? For incitement? Terrorism? Nowhere to be seen. USA isn't the country with the per capita most deaths/infections either. Many countries all over the world has been impacted equally when adjusting to population.

  3131.  Err404  There are many violent extremists who use the quran to justify ill deeds and acts of terrorism. Militant groups in poor and contested areas in the middle east/africa that hasn't been neutralized yet. Then we've got several wealthy and thriving countries that interprets the Islamic doctrine by the book, countries with very little violence and instability. Meanwhile, Christianity can't be compared to Islam anymore because many Christians have given up on their beliefs. Reformed away from every moral value that they once stood for. Interpret the Bible in a forgiving way by always turning the other cheek. The ex-Christian countries in Europe and North America have lost their footing on the global stage and lost all their moral guidance that they once stood for. I don't see that as a positive thing, just like how the excessive fundamentalism in Islam isn't good for the world either.

  3141. The type of values that are pushed upon the rest of the world by the West aren't that great. At least not their stance on most social issues and morality. But, they're right in that China may be a geopolitical threat. Look at their expansionist policy in the South China Sea, when handling Taiwan, the coast outside of Ecuador, and when diplomacy is handled overall. The Chinese military is used to take over all available territory, abuse "enemies", apply a zero mercy approach, and extract all resources you can find by violating maritime rules and international law. China are destabilizing the world, and it isn't a beneficial approach to take. Just like how Iran, China, Turkey, North Korea and some others are looking to satisfy short-term self-serving interests by threatening force, rather than peaceful diplomacy.

  3142. Doesn't look great that minorities stands for a disproportionate amount of vaccine skepticism and conspiratorial mindsets surrounding the pandemic. No wonder why these individuals are more likely to be affected by diseases/sicknesses, if we place aside the different ethnic components & living in the northern hemisphere that results in worsening one's immune system. I wonder if we'd be seeing critical news publications if minorities weren't one of the strong driving forces behind vaccine skepticism.

But upholding international law and prosecuting people for war crimes at a war zone if the actions aren't proven to have been severe, dangerous and unethical, isn't really realistic in my opinion. Can't expect humane treatment and kindness when you're at war. When you're dealing with societal threats.

How can you support the Taliban and militant groups who tortures and executed mothers, kids and men who've had nothing to do with any injustices? Why is it so hard to acknowledge the reason as to why Australia, the US, France and UN's peacekeeping forces are there in the first place? Its not to attack innocent people. It's to protect the world, uphold global peace and serve justice.

  3238.  @justdogood7413  Did you upvote your own comment? Anyway, if you think that open borders is an approach to stimulate the motivation and economic output at home, you'd be wrong. Many countries have tried that approach and the result have been mass unemployment (unless labor migration is what you're talking about), cultural division and a depleted welfare state. Look at Sweden and Germany for some great examples of this. I think the state's monetary and fiscal policy, and social policies that lets people develop great qualities/qualifications, is what dictates how people act on the market. Argentina has stifled innovation, taxed its people to death, and made it difficult to invest/start up companies in the country. As for the claim about mixed children, I look it up quickly and found something pointing towards the contrary: " A new study that involved surveying 90,000 adolescent U.S. students showed that those who considered themselves to be of mixed race were more likely than others to suffer from depression, substance abuse, sleep problems and various aches and pains." Where did you come up with that idea? From thin air?

  3243.  @jzk2020  You made this into a narrative about race. That people "didn't care when people of a certain race were shot at and murdered". Firstly, that's completely false. We literally saw riots for months and $2b in property damage in the USA because people believed that the police killed some man based on race (false, false, false). I countered what you said by stating that most of these criminals aren't killed based on race, but rather because of their own actions. And to clarify, I never meant that the people at this spa did anything wrong (apart from indulging in prostitution which of course should be illegal). But your claims about racism are excessive and false. People did care. And it's very disrespectful to dismiss the Atlanta shootings just because you falsely believe that nobody care about other people being killed.

  3250. The increased wealth isn't liquified and can't be transferred into capital without crashing the stock market and the value of the stock that the rich person owns. If you own a large portion of an industry that the market desires, your net worth and profitability will skyrocket. That doesn't automatically have to be a bad thing if the opportunity is used to create jobs, boost the economy, pay a decent amount of taxes, and/or by donating to charity. Look, economic disparity/inequality should be mitigated. But it'll always exist and isn't per definition a bad thing, depending on what it means and how the average standard of living looks like in a society. We don't need any more socialist takeovers, which many of these debates tends to lead to.

A drug abuser can for example commit violent actions, split families, add to an industry full of depraved illegalities, destroy a country's infrastructure and increase healthcare costs. You'd call such a person a "non-violent offender" and probably provide him clemency. But when a little back story and explanation is given, i'm sure you and many would change their mind about the person's "innocence". 99,9% of those in jail tend to deserve it. Unless they're a dissident in a dictatorial country perhaps.

  3273. Myanmar was never a full-fledged democracy and the military never truly believed in it. I doubt the military ever will hand over their consolidated power to anybody else. They won't back to protests and international pressure, based on the military's track record and influence.

  3275.  @babajaga158  Natural selection will sadly not handle these skeptics, conspiracy theorists, and egoists. They'll continue spread their fake news and misanthropic nihilism, counter the efforts to reach herd immunity, and hurt society, unless something is done.

  3280. ...China has eliminated poverty, to a degree, because they rejected the determination to remain economically independent. The country relies heavily on trade with the West and the outside world. Many relatively free trade agreements has been signed because the Chinese state realized that a planned economy would've resulted in China's doomsday in due time.

  3287. Duterte is generally doing a good, legal and necessary job. Comparing a loose movement such as the Lord's Resistence Army who've committed reprehensible attacks against many civilians through a vigiliantism manner, with a president of a country such as Duterte, can not be done. Duterte is not targeting innocent people either.

  3288. These type of monsters has to be tracked and placed far away from society when any indication of suspicion arises.

  3292. France, Russia and UAE are supporting the rebels under the command of Haftar in the Eastern part of Libya. And the rest of the West supports the internationally recognized government in Tripoli. You'd think that the West would have similar interests and look for stability at all costs in Libya, and perhaps send in troops to neutralize all rebels, possibly supported by NATO. But nope, different Western countries supports different factions in the Libyan civil war.

  3293. Back to the globalist empire. Biden's climate policy is fine, but blindly supporting WHO, letting the rest of the world trample on us, letting 3rd world countries export people into USA with few restrictions, and funding abortion clinics worldwide isn't a sensible policy to instigate. But that's reality now.

  3296. Mexico is too impoverished and destroyed by murderous cartels to even think about a border wall. If the US is "bad", Mexico is a dozens times worse on every parameter. But Trump critics keeps on insinuating that Mexico isn't that bad and that the USA is the actual threat. That's of course totally laughable to anyone who knows what they're talking about.

  3297. Months without pay and some earning ~$2 a day while others earn $1.8k+. Frustrating to hear that these discrepancies and issues still occur even though the West contributes with billions of dollars on an annual basis to build up and support this part of the world, especially the African continent. France has even sent 5K troops to Mali to assist the government.

  3298. Here starts another space race and imperialist era of creating governmental controlled territory in space if a mineral/resource-rich area is detected. China will be collecting stones, dirt and (they hope) resources from the Moon, to see how it potentially can be used for their benefit. The US created a space force last year as well, meant to compete and protect their personnel in space.

  3299. Of course the Democrats won't vote for a proposition that investigates electoral fraud, holds censorship inclined tech-giants accountable, and for a more balanced bill that boost growth during this ongoing recession. They're too imprinted by partisan ways of thinking, us vs. them and an unwillingness to do what's needed.

  3305. The left-wing response to economic injustice, raise taxer further and steal property in the name of justice. Judging by history repeating itself every single time these measures are resorted to, it barely pays off and results in many consequences.

  3306. Nah, he's standing up against the insurgents in the North. The armed militias that has attacked government forces. Handling those looking for illegal secession. Such activities can't be tolerated in a sovereign nation, obviously. Tigray has responded against the government by using missiles and artillery against airports, villages and Etiopian/Eritrean areas, which has killed many innocent. These respective governments has therefore intervened.

  3318. Legalization won't impact the black market and cartels at all, just look at Canada and other states who've legalized it. And the public health risk and destruction that this caused for all generations, especially the youth, is dire. A strict policy against these decadent drugs is the only reasonable and moral response IMO. The Asian approach. Shame that careless egoists, drug users and liberals has infiltrated in this scene around the world. It'll taint humanity.

  3319. If Brazil's government are accused for genocide and negligence for mishandling the coronavirus outbreak,. I wonder what these people would accuse the Sweden government of, a government that has kept society open and followed a health institute's recommendations that entails zero restrictions, no lockdowns, no face mask usage, and gradually reaching a natural herd immunity by letting the virus spread around in society at a slow rate, in the name of equity, equality and liberalism. Should those responsible be held accountable and prosecuted for crimes against humanity?

  3322.  @someGuy-os3kg  I mean, look up Wikileaks and the crimes that they are accused of. Nobody denies that Assange and his team has committed computer intrusion/spying and maybe treason. People are just willing to turn the other cheek and acquit Wikileaks and Assange because they revealed secrets that the public claims are important to know about.

  3324. Indeed. Many of these rappers and societal groups that gets 'targeted' by the police (because they commit more crime) tend to behave in a threatening, confrontative and violent manner by infringing upon others or when coming in contact with the police. Perhaps repairing this decaying culture is the first priority, rather than targeting the police for upholding order?

  3326. This bill seems to involve $10M to gender and democracy programs in Pakistan. Tens of millions of dollars in foreign aid. To museums. National parks. Some of the allocation is probably justified, but it's not a good look for tha american citizens and business that are suffering right now.

  3328. How do the Taliban and insurgent groups even live with themselves when they have these atrocities circumstances in the back of their minds that they've contributed to?

  3333.  @makeracistsafraidagain  IF you were a "cop", which sounds unlikely, you know that cops can be placed under tough circumstances when handling the worst type of perpetrators, such as the heavy burden Floyd.

I think I know the answer: Facts and the objective situation itself doesn't matter to you.

Deterring the behavior by the teacher chastising the unruly student. Expelling the student and placing him at a specialized school. Placing the student under surveillance in a jail facility, etc. I don't think the majority should have to suffer by those unwilling to put in effort or do what it takes to create a good atmosphere in schools. Or what's your take?

He closed the borders, turned the courts and country to the conservative right, upheld law & order and created a booming economy (pandemic, that hit every country, doesn't count).

  3353. Surely Joseph Biden knew that Lloyd Austin had served within the past 7 years and that he therefore can't be approved without a waiver? Why does he make it SO difficult for himself all the time? Diversity quotas, discrimination practises when forming a cabinet, choosing women because they're women, and choosing questionable candidates. That said, apart from Lloyd having served recently, he seems clean and like a competent guy.

  3354. Green investments creates jobs. Even if not enough jobs and opportunities are created, the world will always be happy to provide funds and assistance for countries going in the green direction. Just ask.

  3357. Cooperation in trade in diplomacy benefits all parts though. Animosity and unnecessary restrictions hinders progression. Blockades initiated on exaggerated and perhaps distorted grounds isn't something to legitimize either. Although i'm not sure how valid the blockade against Qatar was in actuality. Saudi and its allies blamed Al Jazeera and Qatar's way of nearing Iran as reasons for terror-sponsorship. The first claim seems questionable, not sure about the latter.

  3359. It was probably just a randomized senseless killing of villagers (by Boko Haram or extremists with similar beliefs), to spark anger and fear in the country, to recruit impressionable citizens by force, threats and extortion into these rebel groups. Or to spitefully avenge on innocents and the country for perceived injustices. These maniacs must be brought to justice and removed from this earth.

  3360. Tragic that people are fighting against their own interests. Cuba is experiencing famine, poverty and its residents has to break the law by participating in the private sector to survive. The regime is an oppressive failure that corruptly stays in power by usurping cash and property that should belong to the people. So why are these poor residents attacking dissidents? Is it brainwashing? Are they paid to shame dissidents? Unbelievable.

  3363. 0:13 Why do you invite these racist leftist pundits when they're expressing a bunch of misleading nonsense? Sweden is the most equal country on earth with equal opportunity prevailing for everybody, and they've never had a female prime minister. Does that mean that the country is discriminatory or sexist? Only a baiting fool would say so. Maybe women aren't as interested in politics? Not as qualified? Fitting? Maybe not everything can be explained by your gender study references or critical race theories?

The Taliban aren't exactly a passive militant group. Same goes for the foreign forces in the area. Getting all the details on camera in a tightly controlled place full of security forces on both sides during firefights isn't easy either.

And most importantly, he had HUGE trouble with the law. He constantly travelled from jail cell to jail cell. He resisted arrest. Disrespected the police to its fullest degree. The paranoid perpetrator deserved what was coming to him, and anyone who've taken a look on all the circumstances leading up to Chauvin and his associates arresting Floyd the perpetrator knows this.
    1
  3376. Chauvin did the right thing and everyone in their right mind who've objectively analyzed this situation knows it. It's sad that he was dragged in the dirt by the worst type of actors imaginable. In the West, heroes are trampled on and horrific criminals are praised.
    1
  3377. Does human rights and treating minorities well imply giving a free pass to gangsters who threatens pregnant ladies, robs homes, abuses drugs, steals stuff and uses counterfeit bills, while constantly shaming the police and ignoring the directives provided by the police? Oh, right, that's exactly what it implies. In this case, the USA's police did the right thing and should be praised. I agree that the US is a very hypocritical entity that should be more silent though.

  3380.  @hugofuccinchavez3381  Sounds like you don't know what projection means. Sounds like you're the racist here, considering that you brought race into a conversation that has nothing to do with race. I understand why you support Chavez. Thanks for reinforcing 25 stereotypes at once, lol

  3381.  @hugofuccinchavez3381  The idiotic city and state involved are the ones who decided to throw away millions of dollars on a crime family full of gangsters. Don't blame a honorable cop for that. The cop did his job and should be praised. But nope, not in upside down world. Funny that every time someone tries to belittle someone else's "IQ", they go on to say something stupid. It's almost as if they're projecting.
    1
  3382.  @julius43461  I agree. Although this contemporary liberal and kind of marxist-leaning trend of celebrating abominable criminals is a thing that we see in many Western countries. The countries obsessed with gloating about "respecting human rights" while letting terrorists and heavy culprits go free on the streets at the expense of the civilized citizens. Depraved it what it is.

  3386. Another overblown media publication that polarizes society further. Wanting to find out whether or nor the electoral laws in some states are legal, that only legal/authentic votes are counted and that irregularities didn't occur, is what every politician should encourage. Only Trump and some GOP members, and their base, are encouraging this.
    1
  3387. If these protests occurred in a country such as North Korea, Eritrea, Iran, Saudi Arabia or other strict states, we'd probably have seen ten thousands of casualties and deaths. That the army are practising restraint isn't really far fetched when their power, the time elapsed since the alleged coup, and the action seen are all taken into account.
    1
  3388. Yep. We should suspend the whole process, frankly. Not even Trump managed to do that. Immigration isn't a right. Some claim that is and that is should be a right, but most stable countries don't care about such activists. Controlled and qualified migration is the only safe alternative.
    1
  3389. Biden will probably make concessions to this rogue terror state that keeps on assisting militias, bloodshed, hateful rhetoric, and the desire to eradicate various nations.

  3391.  @luismartins854  Nope, there's a lot of evidence showcasing fraud. Maduro banning or disqualifying opposition. Preventing foreign observers from making sure that the elections are legitimate. Not creating a level playing field where all parties are able to freely discuss, debate and campaign. Maduro winning a majority votes even though his approval rating seems to be like 20% (at least during the last election a few years ago, the one that resulted in 50+ countries declaring Guaido as interim president). And then there's cases like this, Maduro and his goons doing all they can to prevent approval rating polls, censuses and analyzes into the election.

  3392. Why is Maduro and his corrupt loyalists full of thugs trying to prevent the national census that Guaido is trying to hold? If Maduro is so popular and supported, why reject transparency? This is another example of Maduro stifling the opposition and tightening his illegal grip on power like a questionably immoral socialists tends to resort to.

  3394. Why can't the country use all the assistance they receive in terms of resources, food, capital and guidance to establish a stable financial sector and an income source that provides economic stability, opportunities and employment? Might be hard in a country that has been so destroyed and so poorly run like Lebanon. But this can't carry on.

  3396. How? The government is weak and has lost their grip on these militants. The ongoing policies can obviously not continue. So what's the realistic solution? A full-on offensive initiated by the military? Foreign assistance by peacekeeping troops/soldiers? Changing the country's cultural values to uproot these extremist tendencies?

Be it the Houthis, Iran, small militant groups supported by Iran, or other small players in the region. These groups, and many innocent people, will be brutalized and vaporized completely by a full-on war. So why provoke such a situation in the first place?

  3416. If that's your conclusion and evaluation here, you may need to take some extra courses because you're not on the money here.

And that still doesn't invalidate my main point that Switzerland and other prosperous countries are doing all they can to uphold strong diplomatic partners. Usually that implies having a neutral role, being friendly, non-judging, and ensuring that your partners are pleased for reciprocal wins. Usually that implies not sanctioning or cutting ties to anyone. Singapore acts similarly, I think.

  3419. Poland will abolish the usage of coal power to receive energy. Currently, around 90% or so of the country's energy production comes from coal. Many countries are improving their way of extracting energy. However, total emissions only decreased by 7% during the closedowns across the world during this pandemic. And warming is still occurring, along with the decreased emission target still not having been met to avoid crossing into a point of no return. Goes to show that there's still a lot to improve on.

  3420. This isn't an example of that. The minimum prices that farmers supplies and resource are bought at won't be changed, just improved by the ability for corporations to get involved.

So it's not surprising that even food is checked and examined to ensure that it's free from bacteria or viruses. But almost everything has to be examined by those standards, preventing the world from turning.

  3442. Because China is spreading pro-CCP propaganda that stands in contrasts to most Western values, and may result in misleading ideas being imprinted within the population in the UK? As opposed to BBC, an organization that has its flaws, but is far from as biased as pro-CCP outlets. That said, I think this crackdown has to do with the new security law in Hong Kong and China's recent disputes with UK. If that's what led to the removal of this Chinese media in UK, I wouldn't condone it.

I'm not saying that Bernie is a dictator or that everything about him is flawed, but to mislead the public by stating that he's a harmless philanthropist with the right answer to every political issue is just immature and ignorant. USA would become more poor, divided and ridden with crime if someone like Bernard received the ability to infiltrate it.

  3454. They didn't, no. And America became the powerful country that it is today because of the actions taken by the forefathers throughout our history, even if some violations, according to modern standards, were committed. Also, no country can be trusted if these are the unrealistic standards placed forward. Did you think about that? Lastly, the american/european vaccine makers have been transparent. Clinical trials has been completed, data released, and careful steps by all regulatory bodies gone through. This is why the vaccine is safe and trustable, as opposed to the Russian and Chinese vaccine.

  3474. Greed will be the end of many societies. Affluent and successful politicians stealing public funds for their own luxurious lifestyle rather than helping the vulnerable and building up a strong country, is an immense issue everywhere but especially in Africa. Criminals, lobbyists, the corporate world and those in power benefits personally by the existence of corruption, but all below ends up at a continuous disadvantage. Rooting this out seems like an impossibility, sadly. Maybe because greed and gluttony are so entangled within humanity.

Congo should partner up with the IMF and the West instead.

  3488. Many of the phones that has been intruded upon and people targeted may have had ties to shady organizations and had views that may destabilize the middle east and the world.

  3489. I wonder that too. The radical and oppressive undertones are usually downplayed when people try to justify wearing these religious symbols from a feminist or Western perspective. It's objectifying. Legitimizes control over others (sometimes justified, but Islam's excessive in this regard). People are wearing the garnment to prevent men from becoming attracted and excited. The structures that these people are trying to break down are strengthened by normalizing Islam.

  3494. Should children (minors) with suicide vests and heavy military equipment be treated as innocent children? I don't think so. That's a naive Western way of thinking, which the West, for now, can afford to maintain up on their high horse. Colombia has massive issues with illegal cartels, communist rebels, drug trade and networks destroying the country and destabilizing the area. Even the global scene is impacted by Colombia's failures. Of course something has to be done against this.

  3522. If a country is developing nuclear weapons even though the world demands not to do so, threatens its neighbors, acts unstable, funds militias in the middle east, and behaves like a psychopathic monster, people and countries tends to develop fear and precautionary policy ("phobia") against it.

  3523. Have you ever thought that the "persecution" or harsh punishments against the Rohingya population weren't as extreme as many has stated when looking at Myanmar today? If the military were as harsh against this group as insinuated, why are they barely touching the protesters now? Why is the army going out in such a tame way? Some violations occurred against the Rohingya population and many of its terrorists by the army, that's undisputed. But most of the action were likely proportionate and defensible after the country's leadership were attacked by the group.

Twitter literally said that Trump's tweet where he said that he won't attend Biden's inauguration were "incitement to violence because it could signal to his supporters that Trump won't be there and that they therefore can use violence there". Completely idiotic, frankly. Actual people that incites violence aren't in Twitter's crosshairs. This couldn't get any more politically motivated.

  3529. It's difficult to establish and decisively say that Trump were behind the riots unless you're willing to twist the facts in your favor. He never encouraged storming the Capitol, engaging in lawlessness or violence. Those trying to impeach and disqualify Trump from rerunning for president again, are unconstitutional traitors that aren't working for the people or the country. I'm disgusted that these people are elected to the highest office of this country.

Hopefully authorities are able to quickly strike or seize these submarines, remove the smugglers and destroy the drugs.

And it's not like players are threatening to turn the entire sports world upside down because they aren't paid enough. The leverage and power does not exist, and such actions are unheard of anyway. Greedy capitalists who've bought into these teams and those behind these decisions do make these sort of decisions every now and then no matter its consequences.

You can't just infringe upon and steal property/land owned by law-abiding civilians. That'll lead to people feeling worried about their future, to exoduses and poverty. Those supporting this rogue regime must be held accountable among the regime itself. Especially Russia and Iran.

Abortion laws doesn't have to dictate a country's prosperity levels. That's like saying that the rate of drowning increases because people eat more ice cream during the summer. The causal link may be that it is summer and that the activity of swimming therefore is more prevalent, you know, not the ice cream consumption. Same goes here.

  3543. Powerful corporations responsible for most global emissions aren't poor. The Western world that emits a disproportionate amount of the global waste, emissions and pollution are affluent and experience high standards of living. So the thesis that eradicating poverty would protect the climate per se, isn't true. But I agree that some high-risk activities and short-sighted gain that many poor individuals are committing without concern for the environment, would cease or minimize if handling absolute/relative poverty weren't on the agenda.

Secondly, socialdemocratic Sweden, quasi-leftist Belarus and some other leftist governments has messed up their corona response entirely and nonchalantly dismissed WHO's recommendations and scientific consensus on how to handle a pandemic. It's almost as if ideology per se isn't what dictates a poor corona response. Well, apart from liberal foundations being the common denominator, I suppose, which enables people to not take responsibility or care.

  3568.  @southindianvoice1282  I presume that's true. I took a quick look at Qatar's track record of providing aid to their neighbors and poor countries abroad. 2 articles I found regarding shipments and the Qatari humanitarian fund: 1: "Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD) has shipped several shipments of urgent medical aid to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of Albania and the Republic of Angola to support their efforts to counter and contain the outbreak of the Corona pandemic (Covid-19). These 25-ton shipments, which Qatar Airways delivered, included medical equipment and supplies such as masks and personal protective equipment for medical staff. His Excellency Mr. Khalifa bin Jassim Al-Kuwari, Director General of the Qatar Fund for Development said: “This medical assistance reflects the great efforts made by the State of Qatar to combat the spread of this pandemic globally, which comes as a matter of joint global responsibility to try to contain the spread of this pandemic.” 2: "The State of Qatar represented by Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD) has dispatched four shipments weighing 34 tonnes of urgent medical aid to four countries — Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and North Macedonia. This came following the directive of Amir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani to support the efforts of friendly governments to confront COVID-19 epidemic, QFFD said in a tweet. Each beneficiary country will get 8.5 tonnes urgent medical aid which was sent by Qatar. QFFD confirmed that the medical aid reached Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and North Macedonia."

  3575. Al Jazeera, take it easy with the fake news. Cuba is not just in a crisis because of US sanctions and the pandemic. They have been in a severe crisis for very long due to their socialist planned economy which stifles economic growth, punishes every attempt by civilians creating a business in the private sector to survive, corruption, bad management, price fixing, and hindering free trade. Just like in Venezuela, North Korea, and other socialist-esque states with horrible economic and rights situations. It's such a shame that the Castro regime managed to be established. A tragedy for humanity and a stain to the world.

  3576. The difference is that the American left, the authorities, and the current administration greatly undermine the threat of left-wing insurgencies. It's almost remarkable. Although it has to be noted that the FBI has issued warning that violence with anarchist tendencies is something to look out for. But it's not talked about enough. Did you know that anarchists marched on the streets with aggressive revolutionary messaging during Biden's inauguration, suggesting that violence is defensible to make change? They thrashed shop windows and sabotaged plenty of property. I barely saw anyone mentioning this. Imagine if right-wingers had took their place. War captions would be flooded at every news bureau.

  3580.  Blob Flimby  Inhaling the tar, nicotine and toxic chemicals by smoking results in a deteriorated immune system, polluted lungs and weaker protection to viruses. However, some studies indicated that the opposite may've been true. Many patients weren't smokers, making certain unethical scientists to believe that smoking may in fact aid in the battle against corona. Though, those claims seems highly questionable and I wouldn't be surprised if the entire study has been retracted at this point considering all the other risks by smoking and the fact that smokers may've died rather than ended up as patients, which results in misleading conclusions when analyzing patients and smoking habits. And lastly, this person is posting this exact message in every single video for some reason. Not sure what his deal is. Obsession? Uncreativity?

  3581. Privacy concerns are usually so overexaggerated, but yeah, it's an interesting topic. Under the national spying programs in the US, such as the Patriot Act and NSA surveillance, has any innocent person realistically been impacted? Not really. Has anyone been negatively impacted by tools and apps used to gather information about one's corona status, one's previous whereabouts and current location? Not that I know of (we'd have heard all about it). You can't value personal privacy and integrity at the expense of societal safety, security and preservation. Many people claim otherwise, because of people like Snowden, Assange and journalists trying to frame every single action of surveillance as a bad thing. Ah well. At least it's mostly uncontroversial to use these actions in China (domestically), and in most countries during this pandemic.

It's important to note that the increase the past year isn't as rapid as two years ago, and that the Bolsonaro government has been pushed to take care of the ongoing deforestation, land clearing and wildfires.

To the government: Use your wide supply of natural resources for the people's advantage!

  3614. Good luck with that. Will forcing corporations to pay higher wages lead to more jobs? Will it ensure that people still easily can enter the job market? Will bankruptcies be more common? Growth be impacted. These factors are always forgotten when people subjectively and in a populist manner argue that we immediately just should inflate people's wages by force. Yes, people should be rewarded for their work and be paid a living wage. Intervening severely on the market isn't always the answer.
    1
  3615. Forced/excessive regulation on corporations and an increase of bureaucracy tends to stifle growth, result in job losses and lead to those whom are willing to work being unable to do so. These unions and pro-spending legislators needs to take that into account when forming policy around e.g. gig workers.

Anyway, when you're in the middle east, you should be pleased that there's countries that accepts those with different cultural values and convictions. Most Gulf states would never tolerate that. Most Gulf states survives through a form of slave labor and by using workers from the rest of the world to make a profit, with no concern of their well-being. Most Gulf states don't tolerate any dissent or complaints about the government. Yet...what are we seeing here? Entitlement and complaints by Palestinians practising their widespread rights in Israel? I don't really like Israel, but why is the only democratic and quite safe country in the area called out in this biased manner?

Maxine Waters called on her supporters to publicly confront and harass members of the Trump administration in response to the "zero tolerance" policy that led to the separation of families at the border." Different quote: "Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., is quoted as saying: "If you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere."

  3626. Religious individuals own conviction, fanaticism, and false belief that these religious ceremonies are safe/will aid the efforts against the pandemic, is prioritized over science or human life. Over collective responsibility. I don't think it has much to do with profits.

  3635. Big Pharma and the psychiatric industry must be regulated. Prescribing pills on a rapid scale when other alternatives exist, because of lobbying/bribery and monetary reasons, leads to this sort of unnecessary addiction. Addiction that could've been regulated away. We need to get away from a society where popping pills is seen as a good first resort. That includes in the dating scene, psychiatric/medical field, and when experiencing temporary pain that'll fade.

  3642.  @eduwino151  I mean, the religious world are not free from idiocy either. Many religious fools has decided to boycott the vaccine, undermined the pandemic, and by unsubstantiated speculations questions health officials advice. Many won't take the vaccine because it isn't "approved" by some fundamentalist clerics. That's almost as idiotic as undermining the pandemic in the West and opposing quarantine measures. Limitless democracy and absolute free speech has been some of the main flaws in this pandemic.

They'll regret their advocacy to shame and hunt the police as this show trial has led to.

  3687. We're providing arms and supporting the government in the country to PREVENT children from being killed by inhumane monsters such as the Houthis. I don't get why that is so hard to see for some people. The West and KSA, in this regard, does not want death and suffering. They're trying to oppose it by removing the ISIS-esque Iran-sponsored hell-spawns, that is Houthis.
    1
  3688. Remember; the Biden administration removed the terror designation of the Houthis a week or so ago, even though it wouldn't impact aid organizations' work in Yemen. Leftists are also blaming Saudi Arabia and the USA for their 'interference' in Yemen by neutralizing the Houthis and assisting the internationally recognized government. Leftists are doing this instead of pointing fingers towards the rebels that started this civil war in the first place. Remember who enables this war and the extreme suffering.

  3689. China has some real brilliant propaganda ministers. I have to give them that. Can deceive their population into believing everything. Can keep every entity within their borders in check. Prevent conflict. But that comes at a cost. Lying about other nations and about a crisis can be detrimental impacts on one's own country and the globe.

  3690.  Inconceivable Disputes  Every study points towards face masks efficacy when handling pandemics. Just because coronavirus cases increases or if the virus has hit a place with mask mandates badly, doesn't imply that it doesn't work. You realize how fallacious of an 'argument' that is, right?
    1
  3691. The US has the highest amount of cases because they've developed testing more than most nations, AND because they didn't enforce national curfews and quarantines. Mask mandates would've helped too

Trying to have a decent life, learn and innocently coexist in this broken world, yet they have to experience the brutality by rebel groups in the area. Navigate around landmines, crossfire, bombings and constant raids. On top of that, famine stretches throughout the country and the reliance on foreign assistance is substantial.

  3694. Biden literally called the criminal family. Interfered in the process. Did all he could to punish his OWN law enforcement. It's repulsive how so many people have shown sympathy for hooligans rather than the police officers who've tried to stop and remove these hooligans. This precedent is alarming. Let it be known, I won't sympathize with those who'll end up in the crosshairs by the waves of crime, riots and illegalities that this will lead to in the end. Something that these people have created themselves by participating in dogmatic and bloodthirsty mob rule, undermining justice and due process. Chauvin did nothing wrong.

We can't do much more, and have to accept that different cultures adheres to different policies and principles. Isn't that what the left constantly says about African culture for example? Live and let live, don't colonialize. Don't moralize. Where's those voices now?

  3699.  @benferriggi9765  It'll never be a right to live in a way that infringes upon and hurts others (exacerbating the pandemic), you could therefore on rational ground defend and rationalize obligatory vaccination.

  3702. The fact that so many are fleeing from Venezuela just shows how much of a failure the oppressive socialist state over there is. The people from such a broken country can also impose several risks if they travel to enter another country, that can't be understated. If that's an alt-right acknowledgement, so be it.

  3703. This is a risky step to take, with all the cultural, political and wealth shifts that it may impose upon your country. But Colombia is already at the bottom in all of these areas, with widespread poverty, drug abuse, instability, and low education. So I presume this initiative won't impact the country that much.

The Houthis are holding a leaking oil tanker hostage at Yemen's coast from what I recall, to push aid organizations, the Yemeni government and the world to make concessions and give in to their threats.

The only strange part here is that protests are allowed during a pandemic. That the French police isn't stepping in to disperse it. Oh, and that some parts of France are opposed to supporting the well-needed police. BLM has polluted France too, it seems. Some criminal rightfully (from what I've seen) being intervened upon by the cops a few days back in France probably doesn't help either.

Too much, in fact, because we shouldn't enforce a bunch of sanctions, penalties and increase prices for our customers just because we disagree with a foreign country's domestic politics. And no, assimilation isn't slavery. These people are granted similar rights as everybody else. But some of the rights has partially (temporarily) been withdrawn because 5,000 Uighurs pledged allegiance to ISIS, some committed acts of terror against civilians and state property, and many were incompatible to Chinese society. But this level of nuance is unacceptable to insert into the debate, I heard

These companies who've committed plenty of labor and right violations are pretending to care a little about labor and right violations to make a profit while forcing themselves to limit trade with profitable partners such as those in Xianyang.

  3731. Not much will change. Israel will be prioritized by the US Israeli ministers, NATO's increased budget seen under Trump will likely remain intact, and the military/diplomatic cooperation that actually remained widespread under Trump, will remain.

Everyone's showing love for the police now when the lefty brats realized the importance of having a strong police force. The wall was also repaired and built.

So no, the "same" did not happen to these projects, compared with the BLM- and defund the police movement that ceased to exist because people realized its stupidty.

  3758. Law enforcement around the world are still vastly behind in the rapid rise of digital scams, frauds and hacking. It's an area that needs to be improved upon to prevent wrongdoing and protect the vulnerable whom are inclined to fall for this. Some people are shameless and so cold to the point where they'll be able to sleep at night, laugh it off and dismiss all sensations of guilt in their immoral behavior that results in innocent people suffering . Zero tolerance is required against such actors.

Provide a manageable amount of capital, resources, security cooperation and assistance in order to eliminate poverty, chaos and insurgents groups at home. Make sure that the countries implement a functioning economic policy that ensures a path to growth and prosperity. Those are some measures that are done today, and should be maintained. Migration should be limited since it doesn't really solve anything but rather create issues for the host.

  3781.  @public.public  How so? I've not done anything that has negatively impacted my fellow citizens or society. Advocating for the erasure of people clearly incompatible with living free in society is what leads to maximum safety and good welfare. With your worldview, people would be killed off and injured more frequently due to having a tolerant attitude towards heavy convicts. How is that any better morally?

  3782. Who cares? These people deserve to be in jail and pay back for their ill deeds. Kind of inhumane to report on the "poor condition" of these felons when you know what they've done.

It's not humans that these protesters ought to be worried about, from what the studies are showcasing.

  3804. I don't doubt it. Even the unstable communistic state and Kim Jong Un has admitted that the recent 5 year economic plan has failed miserably.

  3805.

  3812. It may not be on the top of CCP's agenda, but they've created some "Green cities already" with CO2 trapping trees and plants everywhere. They see the market opportunity and way of attracting investors by starting to rely on renewable sources and funding sustainable projects which may catch the attention around the world. It may take some time to transform into a green direction from the industrialized gas-guzzling country full of pollution that China still is today, but adopting climate friendly policies, banning single-use plastics and taking the renewable route is likely something that we'll slowly see from China at some point. They've laid forward a plan for the incoming decades.

They tried to negotiate, deescalate and peacefully arrest him. When a reciprocal vision weren't showcased, harder measures had to be applied. Repulsive to see that the police has been charged and humiliated globally for what he did. Goes to show that a large chunk of humanity is a sheepish clump of meat with no reason or rationality.

Sorry for being annoyed that millions americans thought it was totally appropriate to cheer on domestic terror organizations back in May last year, to then go on and pretend that the world was about to end when rioters entered the Capitol for a few hours. Actions enabled because the Capitol Police were weak and influenced by BLM's anti-cop sentiments, along with D.C. being controlled by a democratic governor whom opposed reinforcements.

By for example buying goods from China or people with a poor track record when it comes to human and labor rights. Just because the US delivers military equipment and weapons to KSA, does not imply that the US are responsible for the actions used by KSA against Houthi rebel groups or other terrorist groups in the region. Separating unhealthy children, children with criminal parents, or children used as proxies, is the right thing to do. They've got the rational and moral reason to do so. There is hypocrisy in screaming for law & order in the US while condemning China for wishing to do the same, however. I'll concede on that point.

Just look at the coronavirus failures in the US, criminality on our streets, plunderes, looters, rioters and extremists. Those need to be tracked down and jailed. In those regards, China is a decent example of a country to partially imitate. This security law in HK is also 100% necessary if you look into the situation in HK right now. Shattered economy, disorder on the streets.

Forcefully shutting down the society and every state was never part of the agenda. They didn't wanna go that far by tough temporary measures. Preserving liberty and letting states go their own way was the only route that these different groups deemed to be enough. Birx wouldn't have broken that dogmatic belief.

  3952. Making it easier and more attractive to take loans or to get a decent education is certainly something to strive towards. But you do see the difference between large banks possibly being assisted or bailed out to make sure that the financial market stays intact, and setting the precedent that students or others who borrow money don't have to payback what they owe...right? The latter would create skyhigh prices, bubbles and financial crashes never seen before.

  3953.  Woody Last Name  I don't agree that provoking Iran or assassinating their nationals is the way to go, but Iran sponsors the most amount of terror (arguably) in the middle east with their military, financial contributions and mercenaries. They're extremely hostile in their attitude towards their perceived arch-enemies, and can't deal in peaceful diplomacy. With Iran's militant existence, they're a threat to global stability. A solution must be reached there.

  3954. Violence is barely an effective way to bring about change, to criticize policies or to get the public onboard your train.

Clashes, signalling symbolic force by deploying military personnel, planes, ships and submarines, and small verbal back and forth is all we see.

That's basically how these countries and theocratic clerics reasons. Pakistan, Bangladesh and its friends societal members have gone out and rioted because the West is trying to clamp down on this barbarism. Which is why I presume these countries feel pressured to push through declarations that forces countries to support these rabid zealots. Good that so many are seeing through this.

  3972. Kinda surprising that this level of centralization didn't dictate the military already. But some policy areas, including crucial ones, are more decentralized than some people seem to think in China. Perhaps China are realizing the potential risk or inefficacy in that.

  3973. In this case, it's needed. "Democracies" (the West) has no clue in this Hong Kong case. The vandals burned down the city even though the extradition law was suspended. The vandals called on the police for to be investigated (for what, the police hasn't done anything wrong?), to release violent culprits and encourage the police to not use the term "rioters" when referring to the rioters. No one with a straight face or a honorable view on this matter can support the group. Same goes for BLM in the USA.

  3978. Following the economic law of comparative advantage and avoiding protectionism is the best approach for every country to assert to push down prices and create a high amount of wealth. But there are some exceptions, such as not wishing to rely on your enemy countries when it comes to food, medical or energy supply. Protectionism isn't the ideal model though.

Niger is one of the country where landmines still covers a large swathe of its territory. It's estimated to cost like ~50-$100B to remove all landmines globally. Perhaps that should be prioritized to prevent innocents from dying off and being injured.

  3993. The way China are handling unassimilated and risky demographics in the country is one of the FEW things that they're doing right, something that EU should copy to prevent a whole lot of flaws, violations, and infringements that we see on this continent by certain groups.

  3997. I can see why these laws may be needed to prevent subversion and vandals from fleeing justice. But this comes across as a communist crackdown where wall building is resorted to in order to control all of your population thoroughly. Many Soviet and Easy Germany vibes here. But it should be noted that I haven't read the piece of legislation. Also, China aren't really communist anymore other than supporting communist states, praising Mao, and still using the hammer and sickle symbol as CCP's image and at the national congress.

  3998. Hong Kong is freer than Indians and the Western populace claims. The security legislation law was valid to implement after seeing the economic recession and vandals that took over the city.

Any other insinuation is inaccurate.

Relying on one industrial sector, indulging in price fixes, regulating the market excessively, undermining free trade and printing cash to satisfy corrupt officials and handle the deficits/shortages, leads to a bunch of issues. Yet people seemingly still support the socialist dictator Maduro. Maybe not naturally due to brainwashing, limited education and a restricted opposition. But there's still people who genuinely express support for this rogue state and its bandit leaders. Even from the USA and from Europe. Heck, even the previous prime minister of Spain (or some higher-up official in the government) publicly defends Maduro and the state of affairs in Venezuela. They blame all the failures on US sanctions and the crash of oil prices.

  4002. The airline industry needs to create a sustainable future anyway to prevent the high level of emissions release.

  4020. The US administration should be quiet when it comes to implementing order and security in Hong Kong. They should read some opinion polls, most Hong Kongers are in fact in favor of these new laws. The people are tired of the vandalism, the foreign interference and the lack of growth and stability. Pompeo should criticize and focus on what really matters instead, perhaps their own misfortunes at home right now. Gotta get one's priorities straight.

  4021. So that's why Pakistan started up that large tree planting initiative in 2018? Along with capturing CO2, of course. Well, that's how it was framed, at least, from what I recall: "Plant for Pakistan (Plant4Pakistan), also known as 10 Billion Tree Tsunami, is a five-year project to plant 10 billion trees across Pakistan from 2018 to 2023. Prime Minister Imran Khan kicked off the drive on 2 September 2018 with approximately 1.5 million trees planted on the first day."

  4024.  @charzanboo9940  They lied about having spent time with some russian diplomat. They lied about non-issues, for reasons of what I presume were incompetence. Trump didn't collude and the historically embarrassing investigation should've never occurred. Flynn, Manafort, Papadopoulos, and Stone should've never been touched from the get-go. These pardons are justified.
    1
  4025. Now this is significant. But remember: Trump pardoned people that were trapped in the conspiratorial and laughably far-fetched Mueller investigation that broke so many laws and shouldn't have occurred under the rule of law. And some were pardoned for having committed petty financial crimes. Whom did Obama pardon? Well, many heavy convicts, drug abusers, and people that will pose a risk to the USA. Commutations to ~1,700 people were made. Hundreds were released. Clemency were given to those who had received life sentences. I hope people acknowledge that stark difference here.

  4026. The vaccines created by pharmaceutical corporations in India seems to be at most 60% effective, compared with Astra, Moderna, Biontech/Pfizer, and some others with an increased efficiency on top of the market right now. But yeah, prescriptions is generally mass produced in India and i'm sure countries will feel the need to purchase the vaccine manufactured in India too, but with slight lower priority, if it is officially approved by independent bodies.

Single-parent households full of misery is almost a norm.

  4036. You'd think that the US would support all action and forces to quell the separatist Tigray forces. But no, pretending to stand on the side of justice by kicking the general of Africa's secretive North Korea seems their preferred route. Let's see how it plays out.
    1
  4037. If you read the Wikipedia compilation of Qatari involvement in sponsoring terrorism, "Qatar and state-sponsored terrorism", it's not a very charming view if you look at Qatar's perspective. Lots of funding and involvement in the most reprehensible political organizations and straight up terror groups from the Qatari side. I can see why the blockade in 2017 were initiated. Qatar should cut ties and distance themselves from these actions and instead become like Oman, if they're looking for more of a fair treatment.

  4043. Nice. Lukashenko is a communist, controlled as a puppet by Putin (literally, not conspiratorially, Putin sent military vehicles, personnel and equipment to support Lukashenko's ability to stay in power when the protests erupted), he has negatively impacted the economy by leftist train of thought/reforms, and has rejected the existence of the coronavirus by downplaying it severely. Guess what recipe Lukashenko had for how the country should handle the pandemic? "Drive tractors, drink beer, bath in the sauna, and play hockey in the cold". Didn't even seem to be a joke. This guy has to go

He seems to have no active ties to China just because he initially commended China's effective strategy. The guy is a representative for the WHO, its team, and the countries there. He's not there to berate countries.

  4046. Companies that seemingly are experts on security and applications offering advice on how to avoid security breaches, have been hijacked by foreign hackers. Very alarming. Especially when it impacts the top of society. Goes to show that nobody is safe. That everyone's a potential vulnerable victim.

  4052. Europe and many influential NGOs has put in a lot of effort to hinder child labor. Requirements and punishments for corporations that indirectly or openly uses child labor has been enforced. But not every country has these standards. Not every family can afford to not use their young children/adults to create profits. So it's hard to remove the issue entirely. Especially if the children consents to the labor. Especially with limited oversight, since countries after all are sovereign.

  4059. China's economy is back on track and growing rapidly because they quarantined several cities in the most disciplinary and thorough manner possible when the pandemic became a reality. That's why they've already managed to open up. They have control over the virus that they released. If everyone adopted China's shutdown approach, we wouldn't be seeing as severe of an economic downturn in Europe, Asia and North America now. China has benefitted and come out on top by this global crisis, which is pretty tragic when you think about it.

  4060. Mass death, forceful shutdown of companies/societies and millions ending up sick is not a ""hoax"", no. Insinuating otherwise is horribly disrespectful for those who've suffered and are suffering from the disease. Nobody is trying to maliciously take advantage and "reset" the world by this. Tone down the conspiracies.

  4066. North Korea is a sickening place full of maniacs at the top. Most countries would cooperate and back down nuclear weapon development if harshly pushed in that direction. North Korea decided to continuously brainwash their population into blaming the US and Europe for their misdeeds, claim that North Koreans are better off than the rest of the world, and therefore rationalize wasting capital on their nuclear development. We never know how Kim Jong Un may use his weapons. He's impulsive, cold, insane and borderline psychopathic. He may fire them at any point, which is why the world is worried.

  4090. Let China do whatever it takes to uphold law & order at home. I'm never going to comment on that. The US and allies should just ensure that China isn't spying, hacking, cheating on the market, stealing IP, and so on, to gain an unfair advantage that affects the large global producers and fair competition.

  4091. The acceptance is "modern" in the sense that the modern world has gradually started to embrace this cultural value and socially engineered condition that used to be scientifically labelled as a mental shortcoming up until the political activists and interests groups took over the "scientific" field. So in many ways, I'd characterize this as a step towards regression. Morally, and health-wise.

  4092. That's nice. But won't be noticed by people when coins and bank notes becomes a thing of the past. Italians still uses real currency, but some countries in the EU has gone fully digital. It's efficient, but could be unstable and not something that everyone can take part of as easily as using coins/bank notes. Not to mention the power that the banks holds over the customers if cards and digital bank accounts is the only alternative.

  4099. Not protecting fragile women, letting them indulge in dirty work, and straining them physically isn't a morally defensible policy. I'm surprised that Russia used to have laws protecting women, frankly, considering that the Soviet troops used to consist of millions of women because communists sees women as 100% equal to men. Every job isn't appropriate for women. Every job isn't appropriate for men.

  4103. You may be lost and delusional if you believe that NATO is the main source for the subversive rebel activity and blatant acts of terror in Afghanistan and in the region. The Taliban and its hostile allies has been a problem for a long time, and the ideology isn't there just because NATO and the civilized world are trying to stomp out terrorism. The developments in Afghanistan aren't looking good right now though. Hope it sorts itself out and that the subversive groups are kept in check.
    1
  4104. Are you speaking about the Taliban, Al Qaeda and ISIS? NATO aren't bombing hospitals, maternity wards and universities. Such barbaric acts are done by the forementioned terror organizations, which is why intervention and neutralization of these horrific groupings is 100% justifiable, and needed.

It's almost as if many of these countries can't be ruled by its people.

  4126.  @donkoh5738  The military has a TON of equipment and resources for their military. Blocking some arms deals won't do a thing. And the army is rich. They'll find sources to retrieve weapons and military vehicles if they want. Sanctions won't do a thing either. The only remaining option is direct interference by sending in forces. That's the last thing we should advocate for. Nobody wants further bloodshed, power vacuums and destabilization in another country.

  4129. You can't criticize a country for a concept that isn't valued in the country (or in the world). A concept that entails undermining national security, giving lenient treatment to terrorists/criminals and letting high-risk extremists do whatever they wish with essentially free reign. That's "human rights" in the 21st century. Not very attractive. Criticize China with their own language, in a consistent and credible manner. Such as their destabilization tactics. The use of threats from their foreign ministry. Their illegal usage of the military to extract resources and take over territory by force.

Values that entails obeying orders and not committing acts of terrorism. What is the problem? That has nothing to do with genocide. Erasing a culture, maybe. But cool down with the loaded terms.

  4133. So many new strains are floating around now. They better not render the vaccines useless. Humanity may be doomed then. Well, a large part of it. We'd have to learn living with a seasonal influenza that may be 10-20x as deadly as the influenza, if the vaccine stops working.

  4135. Can't imagine how desenticized the population in these countries must have become. They preobably treat these attacks as a normal and expected way of life. Perhaps they aren't even scared anymore. They've been forced to incorporate instability and threats into their daily life. Horrifying.

  4136. Afghanistan is full of rebels, the Taliban and islamists. Pakistan has funded some of these operations before, but I don't think that's proven today. It's kind of biased and naive to just assume that Pakistan is behind everything.

  4139. So they'll be using nuclear-powered submarines and aircraft carriers for deterrence as well? That's an interesting perspective that i've never heard before. That said, meeting energy demands is more safely and sustainably done by the use of clean renewables such as solar, wind and hydropower. Such projects are great job creators as well. Not sure why France won't combine nuclear with renewables, frankly. That's the most desirable route to that.

  4150. Pakistan has all the wrong priorities, are still accused for housing terrorists and sympathizing with radicals (bending down to Islamists to implement stronger blasphemy laws and call out France for stomping out Islamic militantism). The country doesn't produce as much as India, isn't as stable and isn't considered as the future in the region. So the Gulf states gradually shifting their sight from Pakistan to India isn't strange.

  4159.  @elizabethiloveelohim137  He'd send you and your entire family to a torture camp where you'd be beaten and forced to conduct slave labor for the rest of your life. Alternatively, a torturous execution would be imposed. People are too scared to stand up and protest against this suppressive regime that haunts, intimidates and punishes its innocent and completely brainwashed population that are suffering greatly. I doubt you or anybody else would dare standing up against him, with this in mind. And that's understandable. True evil.

  4162. The operations on Facebook probably ceased after this report. Therefore "targeted". They're still targeting them in China, but maybe not as much on the internet.

  4163. Prison labor isn't and shouldn't be seen as a human rights violation if it's imposed, unless innocent actors are forced to participate. Also, the West and its people have to choose: Protect the world's labor conditions...or uphold low prices on consumer products. Most are always gonna choose the latter I believe.

And the currency is way too expensive to become widely used anyway. Watch out for the shills trying to exaggerate and make things up to improve the perception of crypto.

  4169. Thanks for letting me know 50x times the past day.

  4170. A country built on appealing to, housing and sponsoring various militias and violent fundamentalists are having an "issue" (a feature, perhaps, for Pakistan, until investigations internationally arose) with terrorism. Who could've thought.

  4173. Both statements are stupid. No man or woman should have to stay inside to prevent rape. If they have, there's something fundamentally wrong with the culture, laws, and people in the country.

  4174. Are you saying that regulatory checks shouldn't be used when determining the efficacy and safety of a vaccine? Sounds like blind nationalism. Vaccines has to be approved by several independent health/medicine regulators to keep the public safe. If a vaccine isn't approved, you won't be going ahead.

  4175. The rate of officers being threatened, hurt and killed were way, way worse when BLM rioted in the country. Can't even be compared. And their riots lasted for months.

  4176. Venezuela is much much worse. The only similarities is that fraud has been detected in both countries, although way worse in the unserious and non-transparent election in Venezuela.

  4177. "Won" with a low approval rate, a banned opposition (essentially), no international watchdogs stationed. Unfortunate that Venezuela continuously will go down a dark path under the illegitimate socialist dictator, Maduro. These people don't have any shame. They're will to corruptly enrich themselves, engage in illegal trade on the market, support smuggling, persecute their own people, and enforce illiterate economic policy that everyone has to suffer under.
    1
  4178. "Protesters" These are rioting vandals that should be (and are) locked up behind bars. This is why every Western country and its ally should stay out of these affairs. They're defending extreme individuals that haven't got any legal or rational basis to riot or protest for illogically strange ideas. These are the same type of news channels and activists that labelled the hostile and atrocious BLM and Antifa riots as "mostly peaceful protests", even though it resulted in over $2b in property damage, hundreds of injured officers/citizens, dozens dead, and normalization of the idea that criminal culprits should be protected instead of punished and removed.

  4180. There's hundreds of studies pointing out dozens of side-effects, temporary and permanent ones ,related to the virus. If you compile them all and read the studies, you'll get the impression that we're dealing with the most deadly disease ever. Hopefully the side-effects aren't that dire, considering the hundreds of millions that has been infected.

  4183. What an amazing evolutionary trait. Imagine if humans could do this. We'd be more prevalent than rats. But it's horrifying to think of dangerous animals potentially developing this trait. Imagine a spider that you're trying to cut in pieces, with their legs and organ pieces continuously moving and regenerating to forever plague your home. Eww.

  4184. The country of lolis, tentacle p**n, creepshots, bunch of fetishes, hidden cameras used to gather footage of naked citizens being quite common, and the country where extortion/revenge p**n is a growing phenomena, has issues with their fertility rate and socializing with each other? Who could've known... I don't get why they can allow for these abhorrent practises while at the same time being a quite collective traditionalist society.

  4187. That Ananya person has made some strange comments. So has Macrona. Lots of nonsensical spam and provocations. It's like children fighting with each other. But that reflects large parts of WION's comment sections. Or social media as a whole, I should say.

  4188. Kind of surprising that autocratic and suppressive Thailand hasn't locked up and criminalized the protests yet. Seems unlikely that the system of governance will fall.
    1
  4189. Same. I'd never take a Russian/Chinese vaccine, it seems too risky since the scientists (at least in Russia) has skipped important stages in the clinical trial in a hasty manner to get a vaccine approved, sort of as if it's a space race and that the national pride is at stake. I'll only take a vaccine if every societal member has to do the same. And if it's proven safe.
    1
  4190. We don't know if Kim Jong Un took the vaccine. All we know right now is that China provided free doses to the Kim family.

  4191. It's quite remarkable that global emissions only decreased 7% under the pandemic. 7%. Transitions from the dirty fossil industry is the only solution to this level of continued pollution and climate change. Something that many countries are adhering to, including China, likely the US (at least in due time), and Poland recently announced that they'd abandon their reliance on coal power plants (very widespread in Poland).

  4193. The countries who've shut down their economies and societies entirely to eradicate the virus and get back on track are in many cases doing better economically than the rest of the world, because they're able to open up quicker and ease the restrictions domstically.

  4197. Watch out so the railing system isn't used to distribute a bunch of counterfeit goods, illegal stuff, trafficking, and illegal migrants. The last thing I'd do as a leader of a stable country would be to open up the borders against a Islamic-dominated and poor country like Bangladesh. Maybe it'll work with thorough border checks and screening systems.
    1
  4198. Pakistan should be listed as a country that adheres to and negotiates with domestic terrorists. A country that permits the boycott of France, a country doing all it can to fight Islamic terrorism and subversion. Any countries that stands behind Turkey, Pakistan and Bangladesh in this matter are a global threat.
    1
  4199. But PDVSA, the state-owned oil corporation and the government itself, are incredibly incompetent, uneducated and ineffective. So oil extraction hasn't been flawless. Relying on a volatile market such as oil has been a huge failure for Venezuela. The country's suppressive policies that hurts and destroys its population has resulted in sanctions as well. A continuation of the brutal Maduro regime is very negative for Venezuelans and the globe. It's unfortunate that Maduro has the ability to continue cheating to stay in powoer.
    1
  4200. Why protest over a law that literally has improved your conditions and profitability? Protests and this level of anger would make sense if your industry were threatened or if your profits decreased. That is NOT the case here. Sigh. A continuation of these riots will just lead to harsher suppression.

  4201.  @rajeshjaliwala6519  That's slightly comforting and deep. 😢

  4202. Don't be insane. People are dying at a rapid rate and some questionable and conspiratorial citizens are saying that it is a hoax, defies guidelines and don't realize that we're in this together. It's inhumane. We have to work together, avoid gatherings, stay inside and get the pandemic under control. Any official and politicians that advocates for such a policy is in the right.

  4203. "Amanda S. C. Gorman (born March 7, 1998) is an American poet and activist from Los Angeles, California. Gorman's work focuses on issues of oppression, feminism, race, and marginalization." I think that Amanda was an eloquent speaker last night. Very persuasive. But the description above says it all, and why she perhaps shouldn't be taken as seriously or be as praised as has been seen the past 12 hours. Focusing on oppression and feminism in the USA, in the 21st century, is an indefensible priority.

Let the criticism against her be published and flooded on Twitter instead. I saw plenty of Indians stepping their foot down against her when she supported the Indian farmer protests a few days ago.
    1
  4209. These courts are so useless. Throws out historically important and well sought after cases. The public will just become more suspicious and angry now. Why not try the case, investigate it and provide a verdict in SCOTUS? At this point, I don't see any other option than abolishing SCOTUS, the House, the Senate and certain institutions to bring out the US from this mess. They're all roadblocks.

  4210. Saudi Arabia and the oil-rich nations are preparing for that by building infrastructure projects and sectors with the capital received from selling oil/natural gas, to diversity their economy. International investments is also a frequent tool. But yeah, you're right, closer cooperation with all countries would be beneficial in this regard
    1
  4211. I hope these recent unacceptable violations by the tech giant industry results in decreased losses, penalties by the state and re-evaluation of their actions. It should NOT be profitable or comfortable to out of the blue suppress people's views. WhatsApp is owned by Facebook, a company full on board the censorship train.

  4212. The public opinion surrounding vaccines isn't very promising in some countries. With a voluntary-based vaccination program, reaching herd immunity may not be possible unless the attitude or laws change.

  4213. The bird flu doesn't seem to be that dangerous. It mainly spreads between birds and kills birds. Transmission to and spread between people is more rare. Around 700 have died since the virus were first detected decades ago. The world is more prepared for this virus too. I'm sure Japan will figure it out.

  4217.  @glennvaz3127  Drugs prescribed by doctors from the pharma industry are used to rehabilitate sick patients and improve their situation during temporarily antidotes. There's a massive difference between medicinal assistance and recreational drug use. The latter has many risks to a person health, well-being and physical/mental state, and should obviously be prohibited entirely. I've never seen a persuasive argument against that position.
    1
  4218.  Infinite Flow  I've read a lot about this topic and discussed it for hundreds of hours, which has formed my decisive view on it. Caffeine is obviously not as dangerous to the user as the more heavy drugs. But yes, caffeine and especially products consisting of a bunch of sugar, should be discouraged and deterred to prevent obesity and other shortcomings. But the highest priority should be to prohibit the more known and risky drugs.
    1
  4219. @Joseph Stalin Correct. Legalizing and normalizing alcohol was a big mistake. Alcohol should be prohibited entirely as well. But one drug being legal doesn't excuse the legalization of currently illegal drugs. That logic doesn't work.
    1
  4220. "Let's exacerbate a crisis in a crisis, because why the heck not!" Such a stupid policy proposal. What's sad is that even republicans has thrown away their morals and emulated this type of policy in parts of the country. Normalizing drugs is the last thing we need.
    1
  4221.  @krin8831  Gangs will continue competing on the legal market, go to another illegal market (extortion, smuggling, trafficking), and likely uphold their presence. That happened in Canada after legalization and will happen again. Even if the gangs disappears (should disappear by state intervention either way, not by decriminalizing/legalizing drugs), this policy has way too many downsides to make justifiable.

  4224. It's "uncommon" because it's abhorrently stupid. US troops are for the most part protecting residents around the world, their own country, and tries to uphold global peace. Many of the actual jihadists classified as terrorists are killing off women, children, and everyone in their way to enforce a distorted interpretation of religious doctrines. They have no sense of humanity. No legitimacy. Yet you're out here defending these despicable murderers?

  4230. It's certainly a mouthpiece for the government or the Indian image. This channel are very careful in reporting news that could damage India's reputation. Have they for example ever talked about the ongoing rape epidemics in India? The fact that hundreds of millions of Indians are unwilling to use a toilet for cultural reasons? The level of corruption and poverty in India?

  4239. If Trump was/remains suspended for the harmless comments he made. Every blm, antifa and leftist loyalist that incited and participated in rioting last year or previously should be suspended. Every dictator and theocratic extremists should be suspended. Will they be? Of course not. These unacceptable actions stifles free speech and sways elections. Something must be done.
    1
  4240. Such a backwards and disrespectful culture. Tattoos all over one's face. Rejecting the expected adherence to decent dress codes. Making a big deal about himself during a pandemic by trying to grant him special rights and normalize a sleazy culture. Expel the person immediately.

  4241. What other issues would he like to discuss? Probably his tattoos and how he's stigmatized and looked down upon for having tattoos all over his face and how this must be solved as a top priority.

  4243. What's with this hit piece? Europe and NA has no obligation to fly Afghans into their countries. At all. Service dogs are part of US personnel and will of course take priority when leaving a mission abroad. Transporting resources and items when leaving the nation is part of protocol as well. Do better, WION.

I know that it has been tried, but they're not flight worthy yet and it's a long, long way to go for the creation of passenger jets. Its innovator will become incredibly wealthy.

  4259. This hacking attempt is a huge breach that broke into the core of americas most imporant institutions. It's shady that we haven't heard much about this. That people aren't focused on it. Not even the president is talking about it. Maybe the intelligence services are investigating- and countering it in the dark, but still. Also, Iran, China and allegedly Russia hacked into our elections and tried to interfere in the 2020 presidential election. That is undisputed. Yet, I've never heard anyone talking about this the past months. So strange. Not even right-wingers are bringing it up.

  4260. 1:20 This man doesn't realize that the Afghan people don't care. They're generally not part of any resistance against the Taliban. There's been little outrage or concern after Ghani left the nation. Him being captured by the Taliban would've probably led to similar reactions, plus some manufactured outrage by the US and NATO forces when they see their manufactured puppet being placed in captivity.

  4283. Unfortunately not. Modern day feminism has a gender lens covered all over its body. They stand for going against biological reality by trying to force women into the political field, into top positions as CEO's and into sectors that women are underrepresented in. Affirmative action is commonly supported. The characterization that the 'patriarchy' dictates everyone's life is falsely believed. Discrimination against men and the society in favor of lifting women above everybody else is the goal. It's an irrational ideology centered around non-empirically proven beliefs, made-up scapegoats and identity politics.

  4297. Well, on the bright side, at least they got a beautifully bright winterland for the christmas season, just in time. Snow is lacking in many parts of the northern hemisphere right now, a trend that has worsened the past years for various reasons related to climate change.

  4298. Gaddafi was too corrupt, sponsored militias across the world, and weren't a stable leader. He has his positive sides, but too many negatives. He'd have been removed sooner or later.

  4300. Iraqis has clearly been indoctrinated to show concern for the people, groups and countries that wishes them ill. That people are so inclined to vote for and sympathize with policies against their own interests is sad to see.

  4301. These liberally oriented men tend to turn out as creeps, abusers, and pedophiles. It's all very much ironic when they're associating with the same individuals that ends up "cancelling" and chastising them.

  4302. Jobs can be created through other means and it'd be preferrable to not pollute the climate and atmosphere any further. Right? This project being cancelled may not stop crude oil extraction though. We'll see.
    1
  4303. Wait, won't this crude oil resource still be extracted and used/sold either way by Canadians? Anyway, I suppose putting pressure on Canada and ensuring that sustainable resource extraction/consumption becomes the norm, is a clever position to assert.

  4308. They're the most influential part of the world with a strong economic powerhouse. The entire world cares about the West, and very little about your country India (if we're gonna play this petty game). Perhaps show some respect and concern for others, to shake things up for once and be seen as more humble.
    1
  4309. And people wonder why military and political interference is initiated against these bloodthirsty brutes.
    1
  4310. These barbaric acts that keeps on happening is why the war on terror is widely supported and initiated from the get-go.
    1
  4311. I presume it's eventually gonna crash in value by natural expectations by the populace if this currency keeps on influencing the market and is being invested in. How are average people going to get involved and use the currency otherwise if it's so expensive? The global market would gradually crash. Also, the currency may be cracked down upon by authorities since cryptocurrency often is used by illegal actors on the internet, to launder money, support immoral industries, etc. We shouldn't forget either that some have speculated that it may reach a value of $100K up to $288K by the end of 2021. But that may be very optimistic guesses by investors wishing for a continued increase. Enjoy it while it lasts.

  4315. When you've got religious of freedom and a multicultural society, that is hard to do. The government will be those who change their ways to prevent these radical doctrines from proliferating. "Articles 10 and 14(1)(e) state: "Every person is entitled to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including the freedom to have or to adopt a religion or belief of his choice." and "Every citizen is entitled to the freedom, either by himself or in association with others, and either in public or in private, to manifest his religion or belief in worship, observance, practice or teaching.""
    1
  4316. You serve justice by ensuring that these attacks can't be repeated. Deradicalize people. Place suspect individuals in detention. Limit the religious doctrine that causes the radicalization in the first place. Improve the national security.
    1
  4317. Yep, this. 100% agree. Deter activities that causes pollution, lowered air quality and destruction of people's health. Protect the public from danger. That's the society and government's responsibility, no?
    1
  4318. I generally don't support China, but their assimilation policy has been effective. They're not "concentration camps" they're reeducation camps for high-risk individuals to make sure that the proper values are learned. Nobody is being eradicated. Comparing the structure to WWII death camps under Nazi Germany and Stalin's Soviet is ridiculous.

  4323. Helping and cooperating with a communist state? Uh oh....
    1
  4324. Good. Cut off the Islamic world if they can't engage in basic diplomacy and reciprocal kindness. If they can't accept the fact that there isn't a big deal about depicting some old religious character. Or if it's so hard to understand why terrorism is unacceptable.
    1
  4325. In a complex and to an extent, yes. But if data is compared with large natural reserves? No. Extracting natural resources will always be way more profitable and easier to do.
    1
  4326. Yeah..it's hard to trust a power-hungry group that won't stop at any practise to seize power and establish control. A group willing to use brutal violence for their cause. I doubt we'll end up pleased having negotiated with terrorists. That's not how it should be done. But maybe i'll be surprised.

  4331. The country needs significantly improved security and checks in this mining and infrastructure industry. Workers ending up trapped in mines or stuck below rubble after some structure collapsed is commonplace over there. Shouldn't the state care about its people. Or is it too costly?

  4333. $1. Or <$1 if you read any news articles going into detail about this NASA project. It's almost as if NASA signals that they aren't taking this project seriously if they're paying such a low but symbolic price , lol. I also wonder if NASA had these exploration tactics in mind or if they were inspired by China's recent mission to reach the moon to extract dirt/rocks.

  4334. This way of backtracking will serve as a blow to Macron's recent conservative and zero tolerance direction. It's a shame that they dropped this needed bill to prevent doxxing and harassment of police officers. Luckily, the government and Macron won't drop the bill completely, but rewrite it.

  4336. Some 'conservative' Germans and libertarians/hyperliberals around the world has referred to Germany's coronavirus restrictions to the Enabling act of 1933 under Hitler's regime. As if there's any similarities. Quite tragic that such selfish, historical revisionist, apolitical and ignorant people exist.

  4340. Is there any proof that shows Netanyahu's wrongdoing? I presume it's another case where a president is persecuted because of the person's contentious status, rather than because of guilt having been proven. Just like all the accusations launched at Trump. I could be wrong here though.
    1
  4341. This should have been implemented in this country a year ago. The government's response has been embarrassingly slow, the health institute has defied scientific consensus (opposed mask usage and denounced all lockdown measures) and the people are fine with this liberally deranged approach. Ministers and politicians travelled abroad several times this autumn, in the midst of the pandemic. The almost non-existining guidelines that everyone is encouraged to follow, aren't even follow by the top. It's a disgrace.
    1
  4342. That's a Western concept. The rest of the world aren't obsessed about such non-issues

  4344. Many are victims of it sadly. 😢 Just shows how important it is to do something about it from a societal level.

  4345. Good, good. This is very important. Social media definitely seems like a strong source causing psychiatric complications these days in the digital age that we as a species never have experienced before. The bullying, harassment and addictive nature of social media must be regulated away for everyone's sake. For humanity.
    1
  4346. And people still wonder why governments around the world are getting involved to establish peace and support the ruling government in Yemen by hitting the insurgent rebels as an attempt to once and for all remove them. These people still blame the civil war on foreign interference, the USA, Saudi Arabia and their allies.

  4351. No, they won't. I suggest bringing your unsubstantiated fantasies elsewhere and take some responsibility to protect yourself, others, and ensure that we get through this pandemic. Why is that SO much to ask for?
    1
  4352. This is crazy. The cops has had to shot several suspects to death the past 2 weeks. Simultaneously, we've seen gun grime increase rapidly and experiencing several shootings where dozens combined have died from. We see riots to dismantle the police. Protests to increase the legislation to hinder people from easily retrieving guns. The USA is in a big crisis.

  4353. Back when pretty much every country were in conflict with each other. Due to the UK's influence, they came out on top and managed to loot a whole bunch of resources, power and property. The artifacts are safe in the UK compared to its original locations, especially with the current rule today.

  4356. Blind nationalism and ignorance, I say. Why would you trust a vaccine from a country that aren't as developed when it comes to vaccines/prescriptions? A country that hasn't published data on the vaccine? A country that are months behind other pharmaceutical companies? This is the problem with many things in this world. People supporting countries or ideas just because they're forced to. Encouraged to. Pushed in that way. Without any reason or logic.
    1
  4357. An agreement that Iran breached. An agreement that didn't push Iran to stop their sponsorship of illegal operations and act of terrorism in the middle east. This is why Biden is Iran's and China's preferred candidate and why these countries interfered, propagandized the election and hacked into various databases to help the Democrats.

  4358. Boxing is such a primitive sport, shouldn't even be a thing. Exposing young girls for a violent sport that can result in physical injuries and brain damage is just immoral and disrespectful. Ah well, I suppose the IP-conflict implies a higher risk than practising this sport.

  4359. Yeah. When WION just are reporting on news event, it's all good. Gravitas and the segments where personal opinions are inserted, are much worse.

  4360. Exactly. Wanna see some liberal democratic oxymorons? Look up the liberal democratic party of Russia and Uzbekistan.

  4361. India is still a poor and growing nation. Exponential booms in terms of companies establishing, companies increasing their stock value, and profitability spiking is a possibility that many are unwilling to miss out on. Considering is gradually getting more stable, investors don't want to miss out on making some short and long-term profits. Makes sense why the rate of cash flows into the country is shifting upwards.
    1
  4362. This election probably won't matter that much. There's way too many republican traitors that has defected and joined democrats, officially or unofficially. Even if GOP has majority in the Senate, many republicans will still be likely to vote on bipartisan lines or with the Democratic party on plenty of issues. A perspective worth mentioning.
    1
  4363. An insecure sector dominated by male workers. Males being interested in these professions and taking these risks is partially why males has a lower life expectancy than women and why they're more likely to die at work. Hope they're rescued and that proactive structures are put in place to prevent these collapses in the future.
    1
  4364. You can stay united without being part of a supranational union. Many countries, including prosperous ones in Europe, has such a relationship with the EU. It'll be brokered eventually. The side-effects of Brexit are mostly overblown.
    1
  4365. Not if a special trade deal is reached, which will occur at some point. Even if the WTO rules prevails, it likely won't have that much of an effect anyway. The UK saves billions in EU fees, will have an expansive supply of fish to catch, and won't have to accept uneducated individuals from abroad/sell off their self-determination. The question is if we can trust Johnson and the Torries to do the right thing though. Not sure about that.
    1
  4366. VW's CEO recently said that Tesla is far behind because they've chosen the electric car market and since VW produces plenty more actual vehicles on an annual basis. Partially true, but it's interesting to see that they're shifting production into the same direction now.

  4372. And riots in the US because a vandal and heavy convict died. Or extreme riots in Hong Kong even after the extradition bill were suspended, with demands consisting of acquitting violent vandals, shaming the police, and investigating the police for no reason. The protests in Belarus, Thailand and in some other countries are however justified. And has mostly been peaceful, in the literal sense and as opposed to the corporate media's false characterization of many of these forementioned riots/protests as "mostly peaceful".
    1
  4373. Of course, but foreign interference and electoral fraud isn't part of the left's vocabulary anymore, after having repeated the slogans for year after year since the 2016 election. A disgrace to USA's history.
    1
  4374. So why does the world purchase billions of worth in items and products from China
    1
  4375. Even Sweden accidentally injected a fallible and defective vaccine into its population back in 2009, leading to some side-effects. I'm sure India has manufactured fallible prescription medicine as well. So these factors can't necessarily be a factor to invalidate a vaccine. But yes, both China and Russia has a lack of transparency in some of their scientific clinical trials and when nationalist sentiment is involved in creating/distributing something.

  4376. For heaven's sake, pick your battles, people.

  4377. The guy was purchasing and researching on how to manufacture and use a bomb. Obviously violent intents. He was not charged for his beliefs. All radical individuals that cherishes violent acts should be tracked and placed behind bars for everyone's safety, no matter their political leaning.

  4378. The nuclear family does also imply that a man and a woman is married and living together, as opposed to other structures that has popped up and grown like weeds. The nuclear family is still mostly intact, in this regard, but it's changing in the West (if you let it).

  4382. Some of these artwork paintings are cool and all, but street art, graffiti and public murals are often a sign of anarchistic decay. Of lawlessness. A lack of broken windows policing. Not sure why it'd be allowed in Russia. But they allow gopniks and drunks, so...

    1
  4385. The Taliban will probably jail, torture and kill her off if they manage to get back in power. Domestic violence and rape is justified by their doctrine. Negotiating with such fundamentalists is meaningless and shouldn't be done.
    1
  4386. The Chinese economy keeps on growing, people are lifted out of poverty and China may pass the US as the globe's main military/economic force in the incoming decade. If the opposite trend were occurring, CCP would be more careful with punishing their own companies. At this point, the CCP can do whatever they want. Especially since they managed to succeed in handling the corona, open back up, and beat Europe/NA significantly in economic growth/limited amount of deaths.

  4387. He'll prioritize handing out funds and subsidies to minority run businesses. Not particularly clever to be open and proud about discriminatory policy while pretending to talk about unity. Just say that you'll prioritize every bleeding business and the poor no matter the employer, employee or family's background.
    1
  4388. Good. The African continent should westernize their educational system in this regard. Learning to swim and being able to do so is crucial. That's a rare skill in Africa: "A recent study sponsored by USA Swimming uncovered equally stark statistics. Just under 70% of African-American children surveyed said they had no or low ability to swim. Low ability merely meant they were able to splash around in the shallow end. A further 12% said they could swim but had "taught themselves"."

  4391. Of course a Karen would say that 🤣 Jokes aside, pushing people to vaccinate and only letting the immunized travel in a pandemic is expected. Anything else would be a threat and jeopardize many countries corona response.
    1
  4392. Some regions requires strong militaries due to all the threats that exists. It's difficult to obtain such a force and maintain it without general conscription. It teaches discipline and strength as well, which are some beneficial values to a country. That said, I'm not sure how I stand on conscription in countries where you don't really have to prepare for war.

  4393. Phasing out from relying on oil, coal, plastic and pollutants can't come any sooner. There's too many destructive effects from its usage to keep it flowing in our economies.

  4395. Has anyone denied the virus' Chinese origin in this press conference? Can't be asked watching it all.
    1
  4396. lol, we're spending billions to help out these countries with medical equipment, prescriptions and by sending health workers to make sure that they can live healthily, away from viruses and disease. Yet they don't want to accept our help. God... They do have the right to refuse this newly created vaccine, of course. That can't be taken away from them. Same goes for every prescription, technically. But no representatives of organizations should blame the advanced world for hogging vaccines then.
    1
  4397.  @TwoFeatherChannel  Suggesting that fossil fuels should be used and that they're more efficient than renewables is what's "dumb" and idiotic, here. Nothing else. Some countries are almost entirely powered by renewable energy. That includes homes, factories, electric cars, corporations, etc. If the investment is there and if there's political will to create a sustainable economic model, using these clean sources is possible. Nuclear power can be used as an alternative to make up for the shortages that may arise in certain countries, as well. Dirty fossil fuels isn't the future nor the answer today. That's outdated nonsense.

But we all know that Trump has a questionable identity and past. Cuomo, on the other hand, is in power and has been praised as a morally righteous angel. Now scandal after scandal is pouring down on him.
    1
  4401. Because they haven't shutdown their society, are very individualist, and because they've got the advanced tracking capacity to accurately document all positive test results and deaths, as opposed to the undeveloped world that can't do that in the same way.

  4404. The country is flooded with corruption, but it isn't "corrupt" to arrest opponents. It's authoritarian and maybe unjustified, which we can presume is true in a country like Africa. I wonder if that continent ever will recover and manage to build something meaningful without violence and letting everyone be pushed down to the bottom.

  4405. Tech giants and privacy, integrity and security, is a joke. They should be pushed to improve their ways if they want to keep doing businesses. Pressure from the state.

  4406.  @vagabondwastrel2361  It's more efficient and comfortable for average customers to just use a light card and a digital platform to pay off fees and products. But yeah, there are downsides as well such as the risks of providing all your cash and information to private banks or state institutions. Giving manipulated digital currencies extra legitimacy isn't infallible nor risk-free either.

  4410. Australia, another country who've shut down their economy and country, yet the economy still haven't t been damaged that badly. Some love to try and oppose coronavirus restrictions because of the potential economic downturn, without realizing that the economy may do better and grow stronger if restrictions are imposed.

  4411. Jakob Blake, wasn't that the criminal thug with a long history of wrongdoing who threatened the police and certainly deserved to be removed? Of course the left-wing maniacs are protesting against that, lol

  4412. Quarantines, mask usage and restrictions on gatherings (to prevent the spread of a virus between people) has been used for centuries, and today, because it works wonders, across the board. Yet there's skeptics out there, including some outlier scientists, who diminishes the effectiveness in these measures. Remarkable.

  4420. Hopefully no pandemics are sparked again by wiping out species seen as invasive and parasitic. People getting in close contact with animals in natural habitats that we shouldn't be in is always a risk. They should get rid of mosquitoes too. I heard that mosquitoes serves absolutely zero purpose to the food chain and biodiversity.

  4424. If Saudi Arabia are in favor of vaccinating and are making the travel to an important Islamic holiday conditioned on vaccination, i'm sure that'll lead to most muslims being vaccinated very quickly. These religious governments in MENA can easily force their people to take the vaccine as well, if needed.
    1
  4425. As long as giving out these visas results in competent workers coming to the USA in a restrictive fashion, I don't see how it'd be a problem. But we know that that's barely what these provisions tends to entail. They tend to become more expansive and generous in the end, impacting the culture, market and a country's security. Especially now when Biden may take over.

  4426. The defense and military industry is such a large employer if you think about it. Tens of millions of jobs are created by the state by pumping in hundreds of billions dollars into the industry across the world, and it's a sector that many societies revolves around. It's unfortunate that it has to be that way, but if you're looking for peace, you have to prepare for war.

  4431. That risk is always there, but I do have to commend France and Macron's fierce determination to crush political islam and islamists from infiltrating the country. Forcing mosques and imams to follow France's values, deporting potential ISIS-supporters, closing down mosques of where radicalization has occurred and strengthening the laws against areas that could lead to radicalization and against transgressions. Limiting migration would of course help too.

  4432. Considering that it basically only will apply to BLM, Antifa and corona violators, I don't really mind it. It's surprising that UK takes these harsh measures against all instability though. They're usually a weak country hijacked by the notion that human rights and freedom should transcend and trump everything else. The UK police is very weak. UK is still an unpredictable country these days.

  4433. Haha no. Countries are basically allowed to do whatever they want as long as it isn't too extreme or risky for the rest of the world. Protests are forbidden in a dozens of countries represented in the UN. UN can't do anything, and isn't a global police force.

  4434. The official caliphate has been defeated. Not the ideology, but the mobilized ISIS fighters part of the caliphate in the middle east. Iran aren't a fan of ISIS for the most part and fought against the group. But let's not forget that Iran has actively destabilized the middle east by sponsoring Hizbollah, Hamas, PA, Houthis and by waging a proxy wars against those trying to minimize the presence of terrorism. Iran aren't innocent in any way.

But it's simply (likely) not a top priority for these countries.

Fun fact: Some speculators and investors on the global market has said that they believe that the value of Bitcoin may exceed $100K within the next months, and reach nearly $300K at the end of 2021. Insane. The amount of black market and shady operations that Bitcoins is used in and its decentralized nature where no one has real control over it, warrants a prohibition of its usage in my opinion. Something for governments to look into, perhaps.

The BLM psychopaths blamed the police. The system (that has given out equal rights, subsidiers and assistance to these broken communities that constantly indulges in severe crimes and wrongdoing). The right. Not the criminal convict that deserved what was coming to him. Defending this group does not only make you a blatant hypocrite, it indicates that you're fine with acts of terrorism and violence in some cases. Get a grip.

  4503. So you're not worried at all about decrease in forests and more of a tree insufficiency because unsustainable tree cutting practises throughout the holidays? Does that valid worry make someone into an "environmentalist"? From an article regarding the sale of christmas trees: "California Christmas tree farmers are reporting a surge in attendance at their locations so far this year. The National Christmas Tree Association says there was an “unprecedented level” of early inquiries from customers wanting to know when tree farms would open this fall. Christmas tree sellers from New York to California are selling out fast because of the high demand and fewer trees to sell."

And then the Western media/populace is intimidated to death when a mob of Trump supporters takes it a little too far for one day. That said, the Russian opposition has valid reason to protest against Putin. Navalny is a civic nationalist whom opposes the corrupt, incompetent and destabilizing tactics used by Putin. So the country would be better off with him or his beliefs. That said, violence and disruption on the street isn't tolerated.

Global peace and stability is at stake. Of course something has to be said.

Russia are the polar opposite and tend to do what it takes to counter any threats, by force. Comparing these different entities is just laughable.

Although India has many other problems, with poverty, lack of hygiene, dirt, pollution, an uneducated populace, etc.

I fundamentally disagree with our PM, but the leadership putting their foot down (7 months too late, but still) was certainly needed to get control and adjust our broken strategy. The only problem with the PM's speech to the nation was the lack of self-retrospection. The lack of criticism against his own government, the health institute and the officials that has formed a pseudo-scientific strategy that we have applied since the beginning of the pandemic.

  4526. If only. Many scientific revolutions and conclusions based off of all the available evidence tends to be politicized and dismissed based on its content, these days. That's dangerous. The left dismisses data about crime rate, mental complications within certain groups. The right (if you can call it that, they're liberal/libertarian) dismisses data that e.g. proves that quarantine measures, mask usage and vaccines are effective and that its benefits outweigh its risks/side-effects. Some pseudo-scientific fields are also labelled as scientific, such as conclusions based off of qualitative data collection, subjective interpretations, assessments that are difficult to keep objective, etc. Gender studies, CRT, feminist doctrines, and so on. It's also unfortunate that some states provides extra funds to do research about subjects that may benefit the state. Or subjects that are related to pseudo-science. And lastly, corporations has sometimes way too much of a say in studies and scientific research. Such as the tobacco industry trying to lie and present the notion that the usage of tobacco isn't as risky as it has been proven to be.

That countries, bank systems and markets are swayed by these intrusive actions isn't of any concern to the North Korean state or these abhorrent hackers employed by the state. Bunch of thieves

  4563. Lock up all of these rioters. Freedom of expression, filming and discussing actions by the police won't be forbidden: Doxxing, harassment of police and false depictions of the police by foul intentions will be targeted. There's nothing wrong with that. It's reasonable and well-needed in any civilized country looking for stability.

The country is flooded with militant organizations and a lack of state control of it. The future of this country is very bleak. Wonder if it'll ever be repaired and unified.

Corrupt states and officials that the money is sent to tend to be the sources that embezzles the money. Or, the money is allocated to ineffective or shady projects that results in embezzlement or the capital being thrown in the water, figuratively. That's the issue, ought to be rectified.

  4576. Tedros is generally objective and has rightfully commended China for quickly quarantining their cities. But he should've called out China for not releasing information about the virus earlier, which resulted in a delayed WHO response and a delayed alert. However, WHO acts as a mediator between the represented countries. So its leadership can't do whatever it wishes. They're not there to turn off or chastise contentious members.

  4577. Absolutely. Shame that Trump didn't strike down against these tech giants earlier on, or at least regulated them from within. Now it's basically too late. Biden will only make it worse.

  4581. Letting children understand the importance in responding properly to this pandemic is definitely worth focusing on. Normalizing the use of face masks during crises and taking precautionary measures. Just like in Asia where the behavior is part of the norm, which is why those countries managed to handle the pandemic better than most. Clever tactics, including by these corporations.

  4583.  @akshayhazari6570  Soros probably supported some NGOs involved in the BLM riots. But he didn't manufactur the riots. The riots were natural, sparked by criminals, leftists and certain demographics pretending to be upset that a heavy perpetrator lost his life by his own actions.

  4587. Aww, what a beautiful initiative during these trying times. Saddening that this amount of suffering had to arise.

  4588. China is a member of the WHO and are represented there. So what do you expect of such an organization, total impartiality? China has mostly been handled in the same manner as other countries by WHO. The problem with WHO is that they generally are too politicized. That they raised the alarm of the pandemic too late.

  4589. Brazil's tax revenue on an annual basis sits at around $455M if I calculated it properly after back and forth converting the Brazilian currency. So $3m is nothing, but just an, arguably, unnecessary expenditure.

  4597. Have you noticed that every communist country that showcases a contemptuous attitude towards the West, always adopts Western capitalist and free market reforms at some point to raise their population from stagnated poverty? Cuba won't every become s stable country unless they throw away all of their communist principles. The private sector needs to be opened up entirely, people need to be acquitted and protected for criticizing the corrupt government that stifles growth, and adhering to the international demands which would create stability and peace ought to be done. Cuba and its people will be doomed otherwise.

  4602. Snag tights, what is it, tights for the obese? That's all I can see after looking it up. In other words, this company is selling clothes to idealize a fat lifestyle, which results in dire health implications and negative societal side-effects. Or is the company using obese models to advertise the products? Either way, it shouldn't be allowed.

  4603. I wouldn't call this promising. The Russian Sputnik vaccine has been rushed through, skipped some stages, and international observers/researchers/scientists has warned that it may not be safe because of this. So this is probably not something to celebrate unless its efficacy and safety has been ensured.

  4604. BLM should be labelled as a terrorist and criminal organization, and be forbidden by law. They're rioting whenever a criminal hooligan gets the medicine that they deserve. They're shaming our beloved and well-needed police force. Suggesting ethnically-based policies that only serves one group of people. Has a positive outlook on marxism. Yet the world managed to be deceived by these reprehensible values and organizations? Goes to show how foolish large swathes of humanity can be. However, I think organizations looking out for the poor and vulnerable may be applicable in a country like Yemen though. They've suffering from the worst humanitarian crisis in modern times and has no opportunities. I don't think they're spreading americas spoiled and irrational BLM narrative there. I've tried to restructure this comment thrice now, to avoid being automatically removed by YouTube's oppressive filtering system. Frustrating.

  4607. Azerbaijan has cooperated with Turkey and had indirect support from Russia. Adhering to fair laws of war isn't respected by these rogue states, so I don't doubt that chemical weapons were used.

  4610. We need "tyranny" (it's not even tyranny) to handle drastic times. Anything else is irresponsible idiocy. Making sure that the public is protected and immunized against a dangerous virus is of utmost importance. We can't let toxic individualist dictate policy during crises or when building societies.

  4618. Oh look. the UN playing on the same side as these militant extremists by criticizing the USA for designating the group in a proper manner. You can't negotiate and reach peace with terrorists. With individuals proudly committing crimes against humanity. This designation doesn't stop funds, food aid and assistance from reaching Yemen. EVEN if it does, the terror designation may increase the chances of ending the war sooner, leading to fewer deaths and casualties in the end.

  4619. The situation in Yemen is a matter that may affect the civilized world's security, including the USA in the end via migration crises, the Houthis militancy spreading like insidious poison, and a poor economic situation negatively impacting more and more people.

  4620. The position of director of national security, will be held by this person: "In 2018, Haines was an outspoken supporter of President Donald Trump's controversial nomination of Gina Haspel to serve as CIA director. While not commenting on Haspel's record, she praised her knowledge of the agency and intelligence, a position hailed by the White House as it promoted Haspel's confirmation. Haspel was reportedly involved in the operations of CIA secret black site torture sites in 2002 and 2003. Haspel also has admitted her role in helping destroy videotapes of torture by CIA interrogators. At least one progressive nonprofit leader has said he or she feared "professional reprisal" for speaking out publicly in criticism of Haines' support of Haspel as CIA director." "Haines has consulted for a variety of for-profit entities with business interests related to American national security policy, including Palantir Technologies and WestExec Advisors.[failed verification] In late June 2020, shortly after taking on the role of overseeing foreign policy and national security considerations for the Joe Biden 2020 presidential campaign transition team, references to Palantir and other corporations for which she had worked were abruptly removed from her resume as posted on the website of the Brookings Institution, in relation to a fellowship she held there." That last paragraph is particularly shady..

  4627.  @Schnitzel_23  I hope Trump manages to use the courts to overturn the results and win. To invoke emergency powers, declare a state of emergency and use the needed measures to stay in power. Dems uses illegals and criminals to win elections. They're unethical in a way that they're opposed to all sort of election requirements needed to receive an eligible status to vote. They're fine with anyone taking part in the elections, because the Dems benefits by it.

  4631. I can see if these breweries, shops and restaurants serving a special type of wine is a proud corporate part of Moldova with many job opportunities and perhaps even a form of cultural heritage. But I don't see a reason to cheer on an unethical industry selling alcohol. The implications for society that these industries causes are dire and genuinely scary. The world should back away from continuously indulging in such activities.
    1
  4632. Right. The Nobel committee and its associates basically denied giving Trump the peace prize because he "didn't condemn right-wing violence enough" (which is a ridiculous lie). So the prize doesn't hold much value or meaning. But, I don't mind Obama or Abiy receiving the prize. They've taken an offensive and tough approach against terrorists and tried to reach peace by removing dangerous actors around the world. Nothing wrong with that.

  4633.  porky wion  People unwilling to put in some effort and small sacrifices to protect themselves and others should definitely pay for their treatment and be placed last in the queue when it comes to various treatment programs during emergencies. 100%. Even the majority will be impacted by these people's careless actions. Herd immunity won't be achieved as quickly or easily. The virus will keep on wreaking havoc in communities. This is why I personally advocate for mandatory vaccines for everybody.

  4639. Cool. A constitutional monarchy where the monarch limits the predominant role of communism in Nepal? I hope that's what's being advocated for here. "Of the people living in Nepal, 25 percent are living below the poverty line, on 50 cents per day. This makes Nepal one of the poorest countries in the world. Rates of disease, malnutrition and child mortality are high. Around 5 million people in Nepal are undernourished" These are stats from 2018. Shouldn't be difficult to assess where these issues comes from. All the 3 ruling parties in Nepal are either communist/socialist or social democratic. Might be time to change then for the better of Nepal and the world.

  4641. Twitter are all of a sudden not willing to swiftly remove those submitting incitements to violence and illegal content on their platform, claiming that it may infringe upon free speech. Don't get them away with pretending to care about freedom of expression and human rights when they keep suspending Western pundits, politicians and citizens with certain political positions, such as Trump. Twitter won't ever be able to assert the high ground in this area again.

I'm yet to hear any persuasive argument as to why China shouldn't step in to prevent the acts of rioting and extremism.

  4679. Considering that Belarus essentially is a dictatorship with a half-autocratic leader, I'm surprised that there's so few deaths and injuries among the demonstrators. I suppose the authorities aren't as strict as we've been told. Or maybe the authorities has the capability to go in hard, but have been given directives to just for the most part ignore the protests. There's a lack of reports from Belarus too since it's difficult for journalists to go there and report. It's easy to get your license revoked and be deported. One of the more high-risk locations in Europe to conduct journalism in.

  4687.  @william2131365  How the US handles China and the current trade war, partially related to the agricultural sector, is a pretty big deal and valid topic of conversation. Especially since it's expected that Biden will go more lenient on China compared with Trump, which is why China tried getting Biden elected.

  4688. I don't think Biden is authoritarian in any way, unfortunately. He isn't an ecofascist.

  4689. Religious dogmatism, zealot ways of thinking, and the country's theocratic nature that don't values or puts trust in science, production and societal models that works, hinders Bangladesh's ability to grow and prosper. Focus more on enriching your people instead of blasphemy abroad, for example.

  4690. Does receiving a P.h.D in the educational branch grant you the right to use "doctor" in front of your academic title? That does not seem certain based on some people that i've talked to and after doing some research. Kind of misleading.

  4697. Imagine thinking that black people or women is needed to restore economic growth or protect certain communities. No, that's the opposite of what you need. You need qualified, knowledgeable and people SUITED for the job. Not diversity tokens, for heaven's sake. Biden and his team should be charged for gender discrimination, and maybe impeached.

  4699. I genuinely support Frederiksen and her action taken when culling these minks for health concerns, but this comes across as a bit tone deaf. I thought she'd express sympathy for the millions of dead minks, and maybe the farmers too. Not just the latter.

  4702. These are situations where religion should be barred and pushed aside, if not straight up outlawed. Imagine letting religion act as a roadblock when the world is trying to roll out vaccination programs to immunize and protect the world from a dangerous virus. Disgusting. I hope all of these states enforces mandatory vaccination programs.

  4703. Great gestures. Much respect to those allocating their time to care for the vulnerable and those who've passed by this horrific pandemic. At the beginning of 2020, nobody could've thought that mass graves would have to be established to handle the death toll. Tragic development.

  4706.  @savinirs998  China has tight control of their population, with their zero tolerance policies and indoctrination tactics that has forcefully deceived the largest population on earth.

  4710. The government is basically dependent on the support of islamist jihadists. They backed down after these extreme groups had rioted and encouraged the Pakistani government to boycott French products and strengthen blasphemy laws. The government accepted the demands and released the violent detainees in jail. They also voted to withdraw their ambassador from France after France stood behind freedom of expression and for rejecting acts of terror. However, Pakistan didn't even have an ambassador in France...such a ridiculous government and populace.

  4711. Then you won't be able to use certain equipment, cars and new technology. Documentation is sometimes necessary for legal, security and safety reasons for all parties involved. Anyway, it's not like some private US company would be spying on you in a way that could impact you. If the authorities wanted to gather your info, whereabouts and private convos, they'd already be able to do so.

  4715. Quantitative easing, lowered interest rates and stimulative fiscal policy during a crisis is fully defensible and won't lead to inflation if incorporated properly. The question is if Biden and his administration will implement an agenda that equally benefits everybody under a short period of time. I doubt it. His treasury secretary is fine with avoiding the threat of inflation by letting large amounts of capital stay in circulation. He'll prioritize certain businesses (based on background/race) over others, and so on.

  4716. So the government is privatizing further parts of the airline industry, interesting. Part of India's market liberalization, presumably. Might increase the profits and amount of job opportunities, in a best case scenario.

  4717. USA is getting more and more secular, without preserving the conservative values commonly seen in religion. This has resulted in more of an immoral country full of atheists. USA is very secular compared with many religious countries. Even though I dislike religion, this change is unfortunate from a political perspective because it leads to an increase of socialist/liberal train of thought dominating.

  4722. Assimilation isn't genocide. Also, shouldn't Indians be happy about the Chinese policy of closely tracking and assimilating problematic muslims in China? What's the outrage about? Guilt by association because we've got a critical stance on China?

  4723. The security law only covers a small area, secession, subversion, and terrorism. Life for the average Hong Konger has not changed. Most residents supports this new security legislation.

Characteristics that for long have become normalized in the individualist world where everyone's looking to appear as unique. Some positives will certainly arise from the impacts of this pandemic.

  4731. The democrat-chosen electors in the several states where a close call arose, should go "rogue" and vote republican, just like democrats tried doing back in 2016. Although it's actually justified today, as opposed to back in 2016 when Trump won with a landslide.

  4737. Pakistan has a huge problem with domestic terrorism, housing militias and turning the other cheek to ideas/movements that are seen as a global threat to any civilized nation. The main contention and problem here is that Pakistan does not see these threats as a threat or a problem. At least not enough. Or else they'd do what it took to erase the groups rather than pandering to extreme Islamist parties, condemn the West and initiate a witch hunt campaign against Macron for trying to stop terror.

  4738. This isn't about censoring opinions or information, but rather damaging content. It's a case by case basis I imagine, but it shouldn't be hard to determine what content children shouldn't consume.
    1
  4739. Every social media site must crackdown on harassment, misinformation and violent content. That's an important task. But why not discourage and prohibit children from accessing the internet or these platforms in specific? They shouldn't be using social media to the extent seen today. It's harmful and gets them into a world that does not reflect reality and may shape their perception into a distorted manner, becoming obsessed with catching likes/attention, getting strange ideas, being misled, seen exploitative content, etc. It's not suitable.

  4741. Good deeds, but this is obviously not representative for the average refugee, which is why criticism against large migration streams is widespread. The cost, risks and cultural clashes that migration can result in isn't desirable by many populations. It's of course unfortunate that their home countries are thrashed and involved in war though. That's what should be prevented to let them thrive at home.

  4742. I wonder if these kind of poor countries are investigating and trying to prosecute these corporations to usurp cash, or if they're genuinely worried about Google's monopolistic and predatory existence. About their tendency to support progressive, feminist and angled perspectives rather than neutrality. Celebrating international women's day and not international men's day. Censoring content, certain words and blocking political users on YouTube. They deserve to be intervened upon.

  4743. The Pakistani government seems to be filing a complaint against the courts decision, from AFP news: "The father of slain American journalist Daniel Pearl on Friday welcomed Pakistan's decision to challenge the verdict of a local court ordering the release of a militant convicted of murdering their son in 2002. "We are heartened to hear that the government of Pakistan is filing an appeal against the release order so that our son's murderers will remain in jail," Daniel Pearl's father Judea Pearl tweeted."

  4744. Mathematics is simply not interesting. You barely use maths other than basic methods that you learn in no time at an early stage. Most math courses consists of very advanced level academia that you have to study hard to get through, and most people will forget the teachings closely afterwards and never use it again. You don't get particularly rewarded in the subject, unless you're a specific type of person captivated by calculating random figures. I guess it's lucky that there's some of those people out there.

  4749. "China has violated mutual standards, diplomatic expectations and international law" That's almost a feature and seen as praise to China. Condemning them by picking a new approach should perhaps be done. China has border disputes with dozens and are trying to extract resources everywhere they can, defying maritime laws and treaties. That can't be tolerated and continue on.

She's become a dishonest political asset at this point with no serious consistent policies or science advocacy.

Then he's able to die in peace by this immunity protection, without being penalized for his crimes (allegedly poisoning dissidents), misconduct (not taking infrastructure safety seriously, causing many catastrophes, oil leaks and nuclear fallout) and negligent geopolitical/domestic policy (destabilizing the world, supporting socialist states, not doing what it takes to build up a strong and prosperous country).

  4762. Saddening to hear. Maduro has cheated himself to the top, abused his position by stealing state funds instead of helping the people, enforced a planned economy which has created hyperinflation, corporations leaving the country, a mass exodus, and zero real opportunities for the people. He has appointed his family to top positions by enforcing nepotist policy. He hires heavy criminals for the Venezuelan special forces. Arrests oppositional candidates, suspends parties from participating and abuses the Congress, the courts and all institutions by appointing loyalists and punishing those that don't align with this beliefs. He belongs in jail. Or the Pinochet treatment, frankly.

  4765. China has said that they'll in due time forcefully take over Taiwan. Still waiting to see if that'll ever become reality. Why waste time and sanity to enforce sanctions against Taiwan supporters, condemn Taiwan's actions and defy provocations if the intent is to fully take over the island at some point? I get that nobody wants war, but that'll potentially be the outcome either way if China's plans are fulfilled. Unless China, or Taiwan, has got a secret hidden card up their sleeve.

  4773. Even though of the clear recommendations placed forward in many countries, christmas shopping were extremely widespread with thousands of shoppers bumping into each other. At least in my country. How that became acceptable is beyond me. E-shopping is the only appropriate alternative in these trying times. But when not even governments acknowledges the need for this approach, don't expect anything else than chaos and the pandemic exacerbating.

Shouldn't have vandalized the city, threatened mainlanders, blocked roads, tore apart traffic lights, humiliated the police, and placed forward a list of demands that includes condemning the police/investigating the police (they've done nothing wrong), forcing the police to refer to the "riots" as something else, and the release of violent convicts. Can't support such a cause.

  4793. The police officers couldn't push back a large mob of people. Why? They were afraid that riots in the style of BLM would repeat itself. In other words, BLM are partially responsible for the weak and humiliating response by the Capitol Police Force. If the police weren't demonized or restricted, the Trump mob, and the BLM/Antifa mob, could've been dealt with easily in a couple of minutes. But nope, some parts of the public has prevented that from happening.
    1
  4794. Who cares about Jan. 6 when no hearings and almost no public outrage arose when BLM and Antifa terrorized this country for several months back during 2020, to protect some foolish criminal? Why should only one type of "terrorism" be cared for if other forms are practically acceptable and even incited by many public figures and politicians?

  4795. I wonder how many of these young adults behaved in a hostile, threatening and abusive manner which warranted strict intervention by the care workers. Other approaches does not always exist. It's like when handling a criminal shooter, you can't negotiate and use kind treatment to handle the threat. But, every worker will be labelled as the culprits here. As per usual in the West.

  4808. When looking at Pakistan Democratic Movement's development on Wikipedia: "PDM claimed that the 2018 Pakistani general election, which was won by Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party, was rigged by the Pakistani military.[5] PDM's slogan is vote ko izzat do (Urdu for "respect the sanctity of the vote"). However, the government alleged that the movement is motivated by a series of corruption cases against leaders of the political parties that had previously governed Pakistan, the PML-N and PPP." Any further insight on this? Are the criticism and allegations of electoral fraud by Khan and his party valid? Are the references to the movement sparking due to dismissing corruption allegations legitimate? Anyone from Pakistan or without further knowledge willing to chip in?

  4809. What are you even talking about? First of all, that logic doesn't check out. It's incomprehensible. Secondly, what sort of "Agenda" would be involved here? The Indian manufactured vaccine isn't as demanded because of having been developed late and because of a lack of data, not because of some "agenda" against India. Sorry, but is this the conclusions drawn because the Indian population has an illiteracy rate of 25% and when over 55% are farmers?

Okay: Lose weight, adopt feminine characteristics/features, behave like women tend to behave in countries where they're cherished, and avoid using unconventional or overly provocative clothing that may be seen as desperate. Forcing people to like something that don't upholds these standards will always be a challenge, that you ought to avoid.

  4815. It's a common misconception to think that shutdowns, quarantines and curfews results in an economic downturn worse than the countries that stays open. Sweden stayed open and has suffered badly, including their economy. The economy is doing worse than in their neighbouring countries that closed down. New Zeeland's economy quickly rebounded and is doing better than many of their equivalent countries, and they had a national shutdown. NZ barely have any deaths or infections. Same goes for China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Mongolia, Hong Kong, South Korea and some others.

  4816. Bodybuilding as a whole is quite of an obnoxious concept where you strain your body severely and create unnatural body shapes that aren't very healthy for the person. Drug abuse isn't unlikely either, to reach one's goal of an overly muscular body. But, if this is what helps a disabled person to get through her day, all power to her. Horrible to see how mean some of her school mates were to her.

  4819. "The United Arab Emirates is the first country to rate a front-running Chinese vaccine for Covid-19, saying it was 86% effective in a phase-three trial. The vaccine, produced by China National Pharmaceutical Group, or Sinopharm, has been "officially registered", the UAE state news agency reports." Uh oh. UAE has already approved it. I assume these side-effects are very rare across the board though. If not, huge mistakes has been made by several parties here.

  4820. Expanding and "discovering" territory abroad to extract resources and stretch out your own influence is what has led to many conflicts and even wars in the past. It's a tactic of escalation that jeopardizes global peace and stability. With China's military power and unconciliatory foreign policy, they're a threat to the world.

  4821. Every country has conflicts. They're way more common in 3rd world or 2nd world countries such as India. India is in a 3-way or so conflict with China and Pakistan as well. So not sure why you're trying to mock USA here. Kind of hypocritical.

  4838. Because not every country has been enforcing strict lockdowns. Some countries are open with almost no restrictions, resulting in large gatherings, sport events, parties, clubbing, drinking, people visiting restaurants and not caring at all what their selfish actions may result in. Not every wears a mask nor is forced to wear a mask. Not everyone cares about social distancing. Also, businesses aren't closed everywhere. Many still go to work daily, which requires a suit or at least dressing properly.

  4840. Iran and China's interference were apparently the most effective. Biden's victory confirms this. US intelligence warned that Iran, China and Russia would interfere back in August 2020.

  4846. Russia isn't communist anymore, but they're supporting many communist states. Arresting an opposition isn't exclusively communist either, it's just authoritarian. Russia is a state capitalist country with traditional, nationalist and militarized values. But the state is basically decentralized, because crime, the media, wrongdoing, and the opposition isn't taken seriously enough (even though there's some cases such as the persecution of Navalny). It can therefore not be labelled as a fascist state or a full-on autocracy.

  4853. Declaring a war with Russia isn't on the table. Not even close. Where'd you get that from? The deadlock with Iran is apparent and something has to be done to break it. That's a difficult balancing act that Biden will have to take a position in. Handing over too little to Iran will scare them away from the negotiation table, giving too much will result in exploitation and continued destabilization in the region.

It doesn't have to be risky if investments are maintained, economic stability ensured, and if the US continues to dominate production and consumption. The central bank and federal state must be careful to prevent hyperinflation or unpayable debt levels though.

  4866. Trump should've done it live to promote and encourage vaccination in front of the populace. But Trump's base is unfortunately skeptic towards vaccination and this entire pandemic as a whole. Kind of pathetic. His base's opinions and pressure is probably why Trump didn't do what it took to temporarily close down the country, close the borders, and get control of the virus.

  4869. Let them do whatever they want as long as their policy stays within China and doesn't expand outside. Let them establish order in Hong Kong. Don't interfere.

  4873. Sorry to say but China are doing the right thing in Hong Kong. Crackdowns and tougher legislation was needed to restore its broken state. HK rioters are to blame for it, since they continued wreaking havoc after the extradition bill was withdrawn. They destroyed the cite to fight imaginary tyranny...and got tyranny as a response. Good one.
    1
  4874. It's too expensive and exaggerated to boycott China for punishing potential terrorists and enforcing order in Hong Kong. People realize that, right? This isn't Nazi Germany, as many like to falsely believe. It's a strict society with an assimilation policy directed against a group of people, which could be seen as collective punishment. But it isn't a policy of eradicating the group.

  4875.  @celebworld8522  This vaccine developed by Indian researchers seems to be 60% effective, so lower than all of the promoted vaccines in their late clinical trials that are about to be approved internationally. Better than nothing.

  4876. The Russian state has been completely humiliated on a global scale lately, so I can see why they're restricting a continuation of that. Perhaps some lust for revenge and retribution is involved too. Putin has denied the claim that the large castle that Navalny showcased in a 2 hour long documentary belonged to Putin, and that the president had enriched himself through corrupt embezzlement. To me, it's unclear which narrative is authentic here, but Putin hasn't precisely got a great track record when it comes to honesty and transparency.

  4879. So wrong... There are illegal markets for all drugs, depending on the access, price, legality and demand. That includes cigarettes and alcohol. If you look at the legalization of marijuana in Canada, the black market stayed intact. They didn't lose influence at all. The illegal networks competed with the federal government's monopolized market, laundered cash, and kept on selling risky substances to the impressionable youth. The same will happen here. And lastly, we don't need easier access to dangerous drugs. Unbelievable how people don't seem tor realize how deadly that'll be.

  4888.  @nid-jk2vx  On the basis that they're tolerant through their legislation, migration policy, and cultural attitudes..? And on the basis that there's scientific censuses and data that points towards the West being the least racist place. It's just a fact than any objective observer knows. Racism isn't a thing, systematically or colloquially, in these countries. Assuming that a case of racism, discrimination or corruption occurred in the more undeveloped countries where such cases is frequent, is more understandable. But when the countries that barely see such cases are accused of the same, of course people will be skeptic. Why should we believe something with merits and proof? You realize how dangerous that is yes?
    1
  4889. @Raksanta Sakthivel That's factually true and has been confirmed by studies, censuses and based on their societal models. Yes, they're extremely non-racist. Have you fallen and been deceived by the made-up non-empirically supported BLM narrative or what?

  4890.  Roshan Rajaraman  The West has its flaws (that I constantly criticize), but it's way more secure, safe and developed compared with the rest of the world. Especially Africa, Asia and South America. Censorship in media? What do you mean? The media is angled and propagandist at times, but I don't know what you mean. It's way more controlled and censored in the many dictatorial countries out there. Telling the truth and sticking to the facts isn't a superiority complex, at least not on my part. It may sound derogatory if you can't handle it though, I can see that

The Maduro regime should leave immediately and let a fair and stable political change occur through holding actual legitimate elections, rooting out corruption, accepting international cooperation, private property, stimulative fiscal/monetary policies and doing what it takes to eliminate poverty, crime, and injustice. Horrible to see that there's people, and states (Iran, Russia, Turkey, China) that supports this incompetent regime.

These are the precise instances that the German leader during WWII or a similar contemporary ones would use to do you know what. Don't these people realize that? Or do they think that they're indefinitely safe in Israel? So disappointing to see that their behavior is allowed.

  4937.  Henryk Gödel  Probably. Handing power and influence to welfare-dependent and groups with no experience in politics, how to run a large county, and how to create thriving outcomes for America is probably not the greatest idea. No clue what SCOTUS are up to lately...

  4939. The western reaction has been deeply ideological and symbolic. There's no good reason to oppose the security law that China has implemented in Hong Kong, to crush disorderly troublemakers, terrorists and those sabotaging the region and its economy. These aggressive rioters created this themselves. If they weren't greedy little spawns, and shut down their operations when the extradition law was withdrawn like 8 months ago, this law wouldn't have been appropriate. But they decided to pick the irrational route like BLM are doing in the US, by wishing for clemency to be provided for criminals, shaming the police department and encouraging the leadership to lie by not referring to the rioters as "rioters". Despicable. I'm glad, for once, about this move by China.

  4940. It's understandable that someone like him is chosen to govern when the country is stuck in a miserable mess. You can't turn a country and its people back on track through individualist voluntarism and democracy, if you're serious about reaching successful results. To handle addicts, criminals and those disrespecting quarantine/coronavirus recommendations, you need a strongman with an iron fist to step his foot down.

  4950. Not really. Printing cash, doing quantitative easing and providing stimulus packages may boost the stock market's outlook overall, but the main reason why companies stock value has been boosted is due to making a significant ROI during the pandemic. Tech companies and e-market services are good examples of this.

A clothing that has become associated with religious islam and the preservation of religious ideology. So yes, it can be seen as highly religious. Doesn't matter if the core of the Islamic teachings doesn't suggest the usage of these garnments.

  4953. Maybe because Russia still are associated with Soviet, because they long for Soviet times, glorify their atrocities, engage in historical revisionism to cover up their ill deeds and since the majority of Russians seems to have preferred the Soviet era. The associations haven't been washed away, because Russia doesn't even want to do so.

  4959. A country doesn't cease to be democratic just because you personally believe that its citizens aren't supporting "democratic values" (accepting infiltration, floods of foreign entities, downsizing law & order and breaking down the healthy family structure, tends to be ideas that NGOs and HR entities falsely claims to be needed for a democracy). Poland and its government is democratically elected and endorsed by its people. Don't taint the concept of democracy by applying your own values and disqualifying those that you disagree with.

China's success in handling the coronavirus, boosting their economy and through self-reliance or cooperation with close allies not emulating/adhering to Western standards even though condemnations, criticism and diplomatic pressure directed at China or similar countries, is why democracy around the world is on retreat.

For rushing the vaccine without presenting the data, as if it's a space race. For poisoning and silencing critics. Failing when it comes to infrastructure. Destabilizing the West by imperialist intervention and propping up rogue/socialist/terror-states. Not being transparent, etc. That's why Russia isn't trusted.

  4968.  @RockBrentwood  The majority of the world are still doing way, way better than Sweden. That's a fact. The weekly death rate is unacceptably high in Sweden and exceeds its neighbours and almost all comparable nations to an extreme degree. Herd immunity is definitely not reached in the country. That's been studied and the amount of antibodies/decisive immunity is very low when you look at the entire population. Unbelievable that there's still people trying to rationalize what's happening there.
    1
  4969.  @juliusr9267  That's been said for months even though the average weekly death rate has been sky high compared with similar countries and the rest of the world. In total, Sweden are still doing worse than the US and their comprehensive strategy has been a failure. There's no scientific evidence or logical reasoning that can be used to counter that claim. The strange and alarming part is that the Swedish population still fully supports the strategy. Maybe because they're so up themselves and only values their own desires/visions while ignoring what's happening to the country, the vulnerable, and innocent people.

  4986. Gaming, you're right regarding the reasons as to why Huawei is being countered and sanctioned by the US and its allies. That should've brought up in the video. But I don't think this host has a pro-China bias that some are insinuating. He rather seems to be on the US side based on the final segment in the video where he celebrates the US involvement in the telecommunication sector, where the US are encouraging US private industries to outcompete Huawei and cooperate internatioally with safe and honorable companies so we don't have to rely on a China-owned company for security, data tracking and communication.

It'd be worse under a Labor party where redundant spending, budget deficits and giving out welfare without strings attached prevailed.

And no, don't dismiss people's mental shortcomings and anxiety right now experienced by first responders and those feeling uncertain about their future. Why belittle what these healthcare workers are talking about by bringing up unemployment and poverty? Stay on topic.

But the laws were suspended, and yet the movement continued rioting, destroying businesses, threatened people, defamed the police, defaced the streets, teared apart traffic light cables, acted racist against Chinese mainlanders, and crushed the economy. They tried to release violent felons and investigate the HK police for no reason. Of course the instigators should be held accountable, which is what is happening now. Law & order can now be reimplemented.

Pretend that you're with the people and that everything will be voluntary-based.

This is why this sort of ideology can't be trusted or supported, realistically.
