The proposal states “municipal sports facilities cannot be used for religious, cultural or social activities alien to our identity unless organised by the local authority”.
So Muslims can only use sports venues for non-religious, non-cultural and antisocial events unless we organise it. Am I reading that right? Muslims can’t organize shit unless it’s one dude, in bland clothing thinking about something not culture or religiously related?
Had the pleasure of going there some time ago. I really liked it. It’s a serene town, the park with the museums and monuments is brilliant. They manage to both highlight the atrocious effect of the bomb while also not shying away from their role in the war. Highly recommend visiting if you get a chance
I know! God damn it! It’s like talking to a brick fucking wall! Christ, are you deliberately avoiding my questions and points just to regurgitate the obvious? I mean, we fucking agree!
Point to my comment about me justifying western hypocrisy!
You know what, nevermind we both know you’re not going to. You’re just going to keep talking about our previous fuckups instead. I’m out.
Ok, one more, maybe you’ll actually read what I write now.
I start by saying we haven’t treated either Iran or Venezuela well and that no-one should argue that. And you mention the overthrowing of their leaders which is part of what I meant. We agree.
I again mention that we clearly have a part play in the situation they’re in, and that if you have any better alternatives you should voice them. You do no such things. Instead you! add other countries into the mix which we do not sanction. Again we agree that they should face repercussions.
So now I’m asking you to copy paste my text where in defending western hypocrisy or you should perhaps stay on topic which the article was about. I’m not defending what we’ve done, I also don’t defend current regimes mentioned in the article. I also at least hope some countries have these sanctions in place because they do not want to be complicit and add funding to authoritarian regimes. Do you understand me now?
This will be the last one for me because you’re clearly looking for a fight and not a discussion when you argue that I’m speaking for these other authoritarian and genociding regimes. And since it seems I have to spoon-feed you it, they should face serious repercussions. Every country that doesn’t abide by basic human rights should be held accountable
Man what did I write?
I doubt anyone will argue we’ve, historically, treated Iran or Venezuela well, but to not even touch on why the sanctions are in place is awful journalism.
Maduro is an authoritarian who’s starving his population and ask the women of Iran how they feel about their government. Why they’re in the situation they are is clearly with the influence of the us and large parts of the western world. If you do have an alternative to financial blockades please, I am actually all ears.
As someone who tries to avoid American and Chinese made products I really dislike the idea of us indulging even more terrible regimes
The COVID-19 pandemic brought this dynamic into even harsher focus. Countries like Iran and Venezuela struggled to import critical supplies, including testing kits, vaccine materials, and vaccines themselves.
What an absolute shit article. I doubt anyone will argue we’ve, historically, treated Iran or Venezuela well, but to not even touch on why the sanctions are in place is awful journalism. The disputes didn’t happen in a vacuum and I’d like to hear about what they suggest the sitting regimes are doing to remedy the situation
Barrot acknowledged failures in the screening process that allowed her entry. “The security checks, carried out by the French services and Israeli authorities, did not detect the antisemitic content,” he said.
I’m not going to try and justify her post, no-one should. She’s praising Hitler… However, France halting the evacuation due to one woman’s social media post seems to me like they’re looking for an excuse
Og shit, my bad
I’m not sure, but are you confusing ROC with DROC? I know The Democratic Republic of Congo is one of the absolute worst when it comes to corruption.
As someone who’s worked a bit in ROC I seriously doubt they’ve got an issue with child soldiers. I don’t think they’re the rape capitol of the world either. You will meet corrupt government officials at the airports and so, but not even remotely as bad as their neighbour
The removals are a product of the longstanding Safe Third Country Agreement, which requires anyone seeking refugee protection in Canada or the U.S. to claim asylum in the first of the two countries they reach.
I understand why they’ve had that agreement. However, it should’ve been obvious for some time now that maybe that’s an agreement they should bin? It’s blatantly obvious the us don’t treat refugees/asylum seekers the way they deserve at the moment

A lot to cover, but it started earlier than the 40s. He’s partially correct, imo when the Zionist movement was growing (early 1900s) a large part of the colonist nations were quite content with having Jewish people leave their countries for Palestine without caring about what the results may be. Because they were absolutely antisemites. This emigration was supercharged in the 30s, because of obvious reasons. Then in 48 it was declared a state. Probably to try and wash their hands from their own behaviour in regards to Jewish people when it became public how fucked up the Nazis had treated them.
Jewish emigration had already started, and they were equally racist, so who gave a shit if Muslims lost their land.
Guess you could call it a co-op. Zionist wanted land, racists and antisemites wanted them out
So they asked beforehand if there was space for them, and they were told it was not. They were told by the police to exit the highway, and they did not.
Unless there’s more to the story than what the article says, this is some seriously entitled behaviour
Yes we should have some sort of censorship. The vast, vast majority of people understand and see the bullshit these people are peddling. But some don’t, and that ends up hurting innocent people. Why the fuck would you argue we should facilitate behaviour like this? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/online-groups-pressuring-youth-self-harm-1.7107885
It’s the betrayal. The US were supposed to be our allies, our friends. And now a large part of their population have shown their true colours. They will burn all the bridges they’ve built over decades at the whims of a fascist moron.
If this is what the US are now, this fascist, law neglecting state. Then I’m not sure they are a lesser evil. I’m struggling to see how the current regime is any better than the CCP. And that’s saying a lot.
It sucks that we have to deal with one fully authoritarian state and one wannabe as the two major states
On the off chance any trump supporters are reading this. We are, hopefully, banding closer together because your leaders are alienating you from us. We never wanted this trade war and we never asked to have our sovereignty threatened.
It’s not against you. It’s for us. You’re stepping away from your allies, so we have to be closer.
I’m kinda on board for the arson as well. There are a lot of people who don’t give a shit about who they support if they can get a car for cheap. But if that car brings the with it the risk of being set on fire or just generally vandalised then maybe that would make self serving cunts rethink their purchase as well.
Weird to say, but trash new teslas
It does to them. Then both the us and russia can’t point their fingers at Ukraine for being the aggressor when they won’t adhere to their ridiculous demands. Thus giving them ammunition for their propaganda machines around the world painting Ukraine as unreasonable warmongers.
I’m worried it may also be short sightedednes (is that a word?)
Had a conversation with a friend the other day who voted for that block, but not that party, and it’s a bit frightening how otherwise intelligent people fall into the simplistic arguments made by this populist party.
We’re spending too much money on X, we need to cut it to the bone. Without ever asking a follow-up question as to what will happen if you do that. Maybe it is as you say, you get served something on social media that seems like an easy fix and people eat it up without question before jumping to the next tik tok or whatever.
A big thing in this election has also been the wealth tax, which I agree is not working as it should. However a lot of people seem to believe that this tax originated in a vacuum by a greedy government, and not an attempt to have the multi millioners pay some god damned tax.
