In that case, this seems like a learning opportunity for you.
Western European countries have rule of law and don't disappear or mulch people when they break the law, letting them retain their rights.
This counterexample would seem to completely undermine your claim that America's incredibly high incarceration rates are just "what happens" when citizens retain rights after breaking the law.
That's what happens when citizens break the law and retain their rights in the eyes of the state
Is it? Why don't European countries have a similarly high incarceration rate then?
This article seems pretty biased and poorly written.
I struggled to find the part where Iran rejected calls to end support.
They seem to be more denying that they are supporting.
These articles about Houthi never seem to present what evidence we have that Iran is supporting. Are we all just taking government claims at face value with no presentation of the evidence needed?
Yup, you're a real hero with your populism. Look how great that turned out.
People these days treat democracy like a damned religion instead of a system of governance. Turns out though that complex decisions often benefit from expertise instead of letting the lowest common denominator decide.
Unless blue people moving to Texas and Florida flip those states blue, in which case red might be done for good.
The Ars article on this said Google had been disclosing this for the past decade already whereas Apple didn't.
You can de-Google an Android phone with a custom ROM and have a phone that you have control over and know nobody is spying on you by running a firewall on the phone.
Can't do that on an Apple.
Lol sounds like this increases tax revenues by increasing the number of addicted smokers buying cigarettes and then taxing the sales.
Really sound government policy there.
But ironically in this case, it means someone who illegally rebeled in support of an authoritarian overthrow of democracy is given another chance to support authoritarianism.
That doesn't sound nearly as hard hitting to me personally. Doesn't include the attack on the Republicans for making this happen.
Yet sadly somehow still as relevant as ever.
