He also believes that people serving a sentence should be used in forced labor

This already happens.

Ignoring the context, the one on the right looks absolutely pathetic. It would have been better to remove the whole thing.

(surprise surprise, the nazis are supporting each other. If I should name one software that yells “hello, please block me” as a Fediverse moderator, it’d be Pleroma.)

Why is Pleroma nazi?

Democrats hate democracy.

the Vikings shouldn’t be idolized too much,

Nobody should be idolised, tbh.

they were effectively pirates who produced little themselves and mostly just invaded and took from others

That's mostly media portrayal. Most Vikings were traders and farmers. You also have to consider in what kind of conditions they lived, Scandinavia is harsh and it's very hard to grow things there.

piracy

The word "pirate" doesn't always have negative connotations, like in the golden age of piracy and modern times where pirates are those who download and share digital media and files, so I don't understand your use of pirate as an insult. Invaders, pillagers, plunderers, conquerors, these would all be apt labels.

~~If you believe that, then the Democrats' propaganda is working. Biden didn't close the ICE centres or stopped family separation at the border. Obama bombed civilians in Muslim countries and didn't close Guantanamo bay.~~

~~The two parties are exactly the same, except the Democrats pretend like they don't do those things.~~

Are you asking about coherence and reason in the narrative? What are you, a Russian bot?

Where? In the country where they took Jack Ma's company away from him? In the country where a CPC representative has to sit on the board of directors of every company? In the country where the punishment for embezzling millions is death?

The existence of wealthy people does not mean those wealthy people have control. They have easy lives, riches, opportunities, sure, but they don't have to have influence in how the country is run.

 

Before their arrival, the Western warplanes had been held up by some as a potential war-winner that could turn the tide of the conflict in Kyiv’s favour.

“Often, we just don’t get the weapons systems at the time we need them – they come when they’re no longer relevant,” a Ukrainian high-ranking officer told the Politico news website.

“Every weapon has its own right time. F-16s were needed in 2023; they won’t be right for 2024.”
