How is that going to protect us from the US?

Yea how does this even make economic sense?

Some parts of Japan, such as Hokkaido, can be considered to be colonized as its native people are the Ainus, not the Yamato people (the Japanese ethnicity).

The Yamato themselves didn’t didn’t exist for 40’000 years. It was during the 4th century BC to the 7th century CE that their main ancestors, the Yayoi and the Toraijin, migrated to Japan and displacd the Joumon people to the North. The latter had been in Japan for a much longer time.

The US is the one that has all the cards but it’s the EU that’s unfair? How does that work?

Sorry, I misread your comment.

Also, they have excellent music.

Apart from Denmark. I know only one band from there.

It’s a gnome foot though.

Nice. In what year(s) did you have your first computer?

A common threat forces people together.

Patriarchy is not only cruel towards women, it’s also dumb. It’s like corruption. We’re hurting ourselves, all of society, including men, by not giving the fitting positions and proper compensation and recognition to people who merit them.

I’ve been incel for years and never hated or blamed women. I was aware of hateful incels but I avoided them.

I wish people would stop generalizing.

Still i’m kind of impressed that I glanced at this name and it felt right to me.

I don’t think the right would care.

Maybe it’s to avoid tarrifs on European alcohols?

That makes a lot of sense. Until you consider that around Winter solstice, Christians don’t celebrate the resurrection, yhey celebrate the birth. How do you explain that disconnect?

That’s for Spring (rebirth, Easter), not Winter.

Christmas is for Winter, it celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. It came from Saturnalia, probably the most important holiday of Roman society.

I wish you all the luck. May Turkish democracy prevail!

If you are Jewish or have known Jewish ancestry, Nazi Germany may deny entry. It’s better to check the entry requirements with Nazi authorities in advance.

There might be a reshuffle in geopolitics. Iran, Cuba, North Korea, and Venezuela, are traditionally allies of Russia and opponents of the US. Something will have to change, I believe.

We might see Armenia align with the US and aforementioned countries, if Turkey stays aligned with Europe. Which will likely be the case, I believe.

China is the wildcard here. I can see them align with either camp.

I think Australia won’t have to choose. They might stay somewhat neutral.
