M&K ended up fighting all the time. I then took in L as a new playmate for Koda. Luckily K&L found a new home with friends




Build huge spy army including secret police stations in other countries tasked to even spy on chinese people living abroad
Get your people treated as potential spies
Use a tragic suicide to complain that your people are being treated as potential spies
???

Yeah of course, now the big importing companies get billions of dollars… oh you meant to the consumer, tough luck.


Of course that’s bad. That’s exactly why it is important to know how the system can be exploited. From the headline it sounds like the failure is on the delivery system to the military.


Deeply misleading headline. Just the manufactorer also produces for the military aand are also allowed to sell to private entities, who then smuggled the ammunition to Mexiko.


Don’t feed the troll. Just look at the username andrewta(te)


I think it’s a sign of good character to not be able to fathom doing this. Unfortunately however, we have to keep in mind that humans can be manipulated to anything, given the according circumstances.


It seems to me the whole world has always been about assholes supporting each other - until their interests don’t allign anymore - while they all keep the common idiots fighting each other.


That’s a good point, as having russian-only units sorts out some of the issues I guess. That wasn’t really ehat I was thinking about though. I get that there are lots of russians opposing the government strongly enough to be willing to fight against them. I was wondering about military age draft dodgers, but I guess they have civilian service for any people unwilling to fight.


Now I’m curious as how Ukraine handles asylum seekers from Russia. Do they consider them too much of a risk to draft them? I mean, obviously going from one country at war to another doesn’t solve many of the issues, but I’m curious as to how this would affect their risk of bbeing drafted.


“Bring out your dead!”…


We could argue which of the two is the bigger asshole, but I would definitely say Trump is the bigger idiot. Maybe I’m a bit too influenced in this decision by his incoherent speeches though, which is currently more an Alzheimer thing, but I have never heard any old recordings that were much better. Merz can speak and cover his lies much better.


Merz is a would-be Trump. This is destructive in the same way as putting a stupid high price tag on H-1B visa.


To be fair their industry was sold systematically way below value, so they were put at a disadvantage quite deliberately. The resulting discontent paired with bad education results in populists having easy game to prey on.
I suggest watching satirical series “Die Anstalt” on the “Treuhand” where they explain who stuffed their pockets and how it worked (Episode 47).
Just so you know it has nothing to do with communism and all to do with capitalism and corrupt politicians.


It’ll work as long as Russia is still useful for China.


My app shows this really small and I thought it was something being exploded.


I think what the above commenter wants to say is that it’s not about greed but the attention. I think of HP Baxter from Scooter. Looong past his peak, but when you see his show live you see that he simply loves to be on stage with the crowd cheering and dancing. I don’t wanna defend attention whores in general, just explaining it a bit.


After all, he did cause Europe to be at peace since 1945 /s


Seriously, is there a bestoflemmy or something fitting to link this?
That’s the thing I was wondering about the TACO meme. Is it good to mock him on chickening out when it is best for everybody that he does chicken out?
