easy, just compare to 5 years ago instead of year-on-year, and that will give you a 24 % inflation.
Now tell me how can you make life affordable again ? increasing wages by 25 % all at once or deflation at 15 % or so? or an all out civil war or something ?
This lie that inflation can only go up without wages keeping up is what the governing class helped by their paid for economists use to keep the working docile until shit hits the fans.
Russia would have never signed on to that. Their whole argument about Ukraine is the constant advancement of NATO territories towards its border.
This is like saying that Germany has the right to keep the American nukes stationed on its soil if the US was to ever leaver Germany.
The soviet bombs were built, operated and guarded by a Russian department of the Russian Republic member of the Soviet union. what Ukraine signed on was a smooth repatriation of those nukes back to Russian. there is no real way Ukraine could have confiscated them even if they tried.
Every country should have the freedom to build their own nukes while we are at it.
The only country who dared used their bombs, and twice, is the US, and did it while there was no need for it. so I don’t see how some countries are taking the moral high ground about who should and shouldn’t have nukes, it is mostly about about who should and should impose their imperialism with the help of nukes.
By we he means, them and their wealthy friends, and the celebrities they paraded during the last campaign. Struggling people can eat dirt.
The dems were never left wing in international standards. otherwise you would already have had universal health care.
You don’t win an election just with vibes.
Kamala didn’t bring as much substance as what the left electorate was expecting from her, and couldn’t differentiate herself from Biden and the current term she is serving under. The whole democratic party went under because all they promise is vibes compared the current economical struggles people are facing.
Mozilla keeps digging Firefox’s grave, and seeing how other opensource projects like Gimp struggle to even keep up with their own release schedule and very slow development rate. I fear we will be left with only chrome to use.
They removed russian maintainers that are associated with sanctioned companies
Your are voluntarily spreading fake news and you are getting upvoted for that !
They have removed every person they suspected to be russian or have a russian “.ru” domain name in their email from the maintainers list.
The down vote count is proof this is the demographics that pretends they are the side that cares about human rights and the death of innocent civilians but in reality it is all theatrics and sanctimony. They haven’t moved a finger to fight against the injustice or protest against their own governments. but when those who truly care and can’t in any circumstances vote for both parties involved in genocide. they clutch their pearls and lecture them about how the party that is actually involved in genocide is the right answer against another party who will be just as involved in genocide. because brown people’s death is meeeh .
I wasn’t referring to racism. Race and Nationality are almost the same thing, people can’t chose in what community they were born in. and not everyone has the means to move.
Is he too big to Fall or what ? he seems unshakeable!
don’t be pedantic, what about the Chinese, south-Africans, north-Koreans, Cubans, …etc
So the Rest of the world should trust CIA, NSA contributions but not Russia’s FSB ? come on , opensource should be tolerant towards all espionage agencies no matter their skin color.
I took full advantage of invidious while it was still working, now I am anxious of ever going back to YouTube. It won’t be long before they requiring giving them your iris scan before watching a video on that shit platform.
Corporations and commercial interests taking over the internet is inevitable. the only free corners left are the darknets with tor/i2p. but because the normies can’t bother use that isn’t falshy and trendy, there might not be any other chance to replace this decrepit boring dystopia.
They forgot to thank Biden, Harris and The USA for the thousands of bombs they have provided for Israel’s genocide. and the coming 20 Billion more of military support.
They hive mind is just as strong on lemmy as it is on Reddit. which has led me to wind-down my engagement on lemmy and will very soon drop it all together. going back to RSS I guess or might try nostr next.
According to your handle, it might be you who is intersted in that sort of shit, but you are instead reflecting it on others.
why should some have nukes and others not?
Were they given divine mandate ? are they superior human beings ? explain !!
