there are a number of countries that are neutral and unlikely to sanction anyone else, though one might argue about their democratic credentials, with a minor or major stretch. brazil, mexico, chile, colombia, costa rica, uruguay (just to name a few in latin america), andorra, malta, san marino, india, south africa…

the point that really got me was “I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be supporting Russian aggression?”.

in the end, it’s nato-stan all day long. tired of this.

this. the west is not all chrome and shiny (heh), it jsut oursources its violence to its poorer lackeys.

And every time an actual leftist party succeeds, our media basically unite against it while pretending to accept them.

you’re having it so good. here in the periphery of the capitalism we are just putsched whenever a marginally leftist party gets elected, with active help from the department of state.

then don’t go to war with china. people talk like the chinese would go attacking for no reason.

you elect a clown, you get the government of a clown, i’ve already said that.

you vote for a clown, you get the government of a clown.

poor latin america who got these elites for starters.

seems like someone is making a jazz solo in the war drums set.

you’ve just described every decent public health system in several countries, many of them not really rich, such as brazil.

watching from abroad it seems that keir has got no incentive or menace to make him go more to the left, which means he won’t do it and sees this victory as a reward to his positions. meanwhile tory tactics of incorporating farage’s discourse has finally broke down, and the votes they made out of it have returned to their rightful (pun intended) owner. libdems did their homework. sad for the snp and well deserved for the dup.

the first contact i had with linux back in mid-90’s brazil was with my isp’s login terminal, which displayed some arcane text reading “red hat linux version x.x”. after that, during my father’s final years working in bank of brazil he had to deal with cobra’s homemade distro in his workstations (cobra had developed an unix in the 80s that run on m68k’s, so no surprises here). it was an absolutely esoteric system to those who only knew the dos/windows 3.11 duo, since w95 only arrived in our country in numbers only in 96. the thing really caught on during the early to mid-2000’s, with faster and cheaper adsl connections, and with them, abundant knowledge and downloads available to any script kid.

i’d have problems with that pic even if it was some sort of stalag kink.

with dutch assistance, i’d say.

me and most of the developing world have mixed feelings about the war in ukraine. at the very least it’s white people’s problems. at the limit we’re pissed by the west trying to rally us behind a country that stopped black people from leaving when the invasion came and that is receiving many times the amount of help that many of us have received during catastrophes, against a country that, wicked as it can be, never really messed with our internal affairs.

that being said, this is war and russia cannot complain that it didn’t knew what was coming. deal with it (spoiler: they will).

they remained on dell, but have willingly forgone the oportunity of progressing in their career within the company in order to remain at home. some are even looking for other jobs in organizations that don’t whip them back into offices.

if they d!e upon reentry, will someone pick up them cursing boeing on amateur radio?

good riddance, black banana asylum. you won’t be missed.
