It cites the 2010 All-Russian Population Census by the Federal State Statistics Service directly, so yes. In this case I don’t have any reason not to, since its from the Russian government to begin with.

Damn, I know these are sparsely populated areas, but: 2010 Census population: Five.

Imagine fighting and dying for essentially one private family’s property.

Well, no it won’t change the true believers minds outright. That is true. But I do know the biggest divisions we’ve seen in public with the GOP has been over the epstein files.

Anecdotally it’s the only topic the chuds I know don’t want to discuss, be aware of, or have to do the work to justify.

So if anything it thins their ranks a bit, which is absolutely a worthwhile end. No other wedge issue has been as effective.

It’s the only thing that actually threatens his base of support.

Epstein files is the only thing that shuts the chuds up. They’re cheering about Venezuela and getting off to ICE murders. But they, for whatever reason, only draw the line at pedophilic elitism.

“Should” typically means “must” in the legal sense.

But also consider that getting ICE to leave their agent out to dry would would go a ways in breaking their sense of invulnerability. Same dynamic as getting a police union to dump a cop in the courts.

So you know the greater context then, of the British in Tibet, at the very least.

The British Empire, whistling innocently.

Qinxian made a decision that saved countless lives, much like Arkhipov in the 60s.

Good luck and godspeed, Mr. Cardamom.

It got him celebrity. That opens doors in ways money doesn’t.

This, but the box held together with tan packing tape applied in the 90s.

None of these are mutually exclusive.

Nearly ten years of my life essentially reduced to “Keep poop in ground, not on ground.”

The lab work v field work divide transcends both politics and history.

A lot of times letting them talk and actually listening to what they have to say, they give it directly to you. If you acknowledge their dumb shit, they’re more likely to return the favor.

Like, helping a NASCAR fan get into EVs because of their absolute love of torque isn’t an unreal scenario. They’ll give you the roadmap.

• American assets,
• lunatic nationalists who happen to side with the US for a variety of reasons,
• more or less reasonable (for politician standards), but still afraid to confront the US in any way.

Category #3 is just as afraid of the lunatic nationalists as defying American interests. This is, from my perspective, why Europe has traditionally had some issues with ultranationalism.

That looks more like Jeff Coltin’s contribution to what Mandani said. Mamdani did the very politician thing and said ‘there are many ways’. Jeff is adding in the discouragement and the ‘but’ to Mamdani’s quote.

That might have something to do with it.

It’s not a change of heart on white christian nationalist policymaking, so her rhetoric means fuck all.
