You could just google, there are many articles over the past few years.

The funny thing is that this would be happening if US had resisted the urge to weaponize the dollar and swift. Both were functionally good enough and enable global trade like never before. but now US is increasingly sanctioning like half the world and both of those have suddenly become a burden for the world economy and a risk to be diversified away for countries, who fear they might for one reason or another get on some American officials list. What is US going to do to fight , probably more sanctions and more "funding of democractic oppositions and freedomfighters". That will only make the case and urgency for this to go forward for many countries.

data was evidence of the “continued decoupling of emissions and economic growth” in the bloc.

German industrial collapse is driving this. Industry needs large amounts of baseline power and that is more heavily tied to fossil fuels. Light industry and homes can more easily run on renewables where the output is less stable.

Also things like component sales have plummeted inside the EU mainly driven by the decline of German automotive industry. None of this is good. Being an increasingly poorer and uncompetitive service economy that buys Chinese goods and acts high and mighty because it can be more green is not a good direction.

They are just trying to prevent the war settling itself as long as Biden is still in office and especially before the elections. After that it was not their fault. They all know it's not going to end well.

There are 10k, 3k, 8k north koreans

They are fighting in Ukraine, no they are fighting in Kursk, no they are just in Russia, They are still in north korea, They are in Russia but moving towards Kursk

And zero evidence, every time, beside some obscure videos of Asian looking men taken out of context. They just really don't want to discuss about what is going on the frontlines, like with Selydove. Especially when there is an US election going. What a stupid red herring.

His definition isn't bad per se, but it really hinges on his own subjective worldview. Also terrorism isn't an ideology, a way of living or a faith, it's a way of fighting and imposing political change. One can't separate the cause and the method and the judge people merely through their methods. Despite the word "terrorist" being a synonymous for bad person, the concept really has no moral undertones by itself ("one man's terrorist... etc"). It really does boil down Netanyahu saying that he and Israel are good, moral and righteous, therefore anybody who opposes him and Israel are wrong. Really despite what they are doing. If Hamas were throwing flowers and slogans at IDF and settlers all this time they would have been just laughed off and genocide would have just continued, but more silently. If Hamas's method of fighting was to surgically destroy IDF and Israeli leadership, then he still would be bitching about it too as immoral and vile.

And I know I'm giving this rat too much credit here, when we all know he is a professional bullshitter hell bent on genocide to save himself. That is all one needs to really understand.

What pisses me off the most about NAFOids is the absolute and constant pettiness.

Are they legally bound to follow any sanction list in their dealings? If so Linux foundation should consider move out of the US jurisdiction, because the santion load is just going to increase and more countries will be included.

If they are just doing this because of a political fad and partaking "the current thing" then they are just voluntarily digging their own and the linux foundation's grave.

That's one way to kill off the remaining American foundry business, since if US can't compete now and Korean and Chinese workers are as good, then there is no reason to shift production off in the long term.

Wasn't there that Gazan hospital that they occupied and destroyed and claimed it was legitimate target, because they found box cutters and binoculars? Tools that were totally used by Hamas soldiers hiding under the Hospital..

What the hell is an ActivityPub platform?

As if any institution, org or group that has an agenda to push doesn't have battalions of bots guiding the discussion of forums to whichever way they want and not just fake followers and likes. As if people would need permission or would ask for it even if they had to. You just cant have any real sense of the public opinion on the internet, if there ever was such a time.
