Gajin was founded in Russia and only moved offices to Hungary in 2015.
Giving a temporary ban reserves plausible deniability while keeping the honeypot open.
- Comment on America last night 2 days ago:
There is three major “theaters” right now:
- Eastern Europe (Ukraine)
- West Asia (Middle East)
- East Asia
The US already moved multiple ships from East Asia to facilitate the attacks on Iran. If Iran responds by retaliating against US based in the region, the US will probably commit large amounts of forces and get itself into another Iraq/Afghanistan style situation.
This removes US forces and restocking capabilities from East Asia. Now China can expand itself in that region, which the US had thought to contain by its military presence.
The US has been trying to “pivot” out of West Asia into East Asia for over a decade now. This also explains Israels attacks on Iran now in an attempt to force the US to maintain focused on the region. Think of it like the older child throwing tantrums when their younger sibling is getting more attention.

The claim was that everything was copied horizontally, which is evidently not the case in the picture. Also as i have linked the widest “freeway” in the US has even more lanes.
Thank you for posting the article. As you can read in the article they prove the fact that the image is altered by pointing out the number of lanes being wrong, not by “suspicious patterns” in the cars.
The claim that the image was just doubled horizontally simply does not check out. There was more effort put into creating the fake.

We are certainly not their prey and without modern urban sprawl forcing animals into urbanized areas they would avoid humans as much as possible and this has been true for thousands of years.
Humans are the ones wielding fire after all.

Equating Iran and Al-Qaeda and more generally categorizing all “brown people” as more or less the same is like saying Guatemala is “they” with the US because they are on the same continent.

The politicians running the show and most of their voters are old enough to remember. Young people play less and less of a role in western politics.
- Comment on Again and Again and Again and..... 3 days ago:
Who is “they”? the 9/11 attack was committed by mostly Saudi nationals under leadership of the (former) CIA assets Osama bin Laden (also Saudi).
You know which country the US didn’t attack in its “war on terror”? Saudi Arabia.
Instead the US attacked / attacked in: Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Libya
- Comment on America last night 3 days ago:
Well guess what the US bombing Iran makes more likely.
- Comment on Just one more 3 days ago:
Ehm, nope? You know that white and black/dark blue/dark greyish are the most prevalent car colors?
Look at the trucks and minivans that are a bit more distinct. Their patterns with other white cars around do not repeat.
Also the one in the picture only has 20 lanes. The US widest has 26 lanes

Problem is that as they will get bogged down, they will probably have to sacrifice Ukraine to Russia and South East Asia to China.
From a strategic point of view, this will turn out as a huge failure for the US.
- Comment on Again and Again and Again and..... 3 days ago:
The UK already applauded his attack. Given how Germany acted so far, i expect them to follow suit. While urging to go back to diplomacy and restraint the EU speaker also first said, Iran must not have nuclear weapons, while not saying that countries shouldn’t just bomb other countries, whenever they feel like it.
- Comment on Again and Again and Again and..... 3 days ago:
“terrorism”
When people don’t want to be slaughtered and have their resources stolen by imperial invaders it is “terrorism”. When the same invaders are doing their invasions, mass murder civilians, threaten total annihilation and the like, it is “security” or “bringing democracy”…

- Comment on So um, america just started another war in the middle east. We're going to need a shit ton more memes to distract americans from the nightmare they are enduring. Thanks in advance... 4 days ago:
Bombing Iran and letting Israel dictate American foreign policy are two things with strong bipartisan support.
Hillary Clinton campaigned in 2008 on the promise to bomb Iran. Biden couldnt even bring it over himself to enforce a demand for Israel to no starve Gaza to death and let Netanyahu humiliate him in public multiple times. And Biden/Clintons are the ultimate Democrats establishment.
- Comment on Bestbuy decided to use fucking **DOORDASH** to deliver my order, I couldn't cancel it. Today I was supposed to get it, and I saw the driver stealing the package after marking it as delivered. 5 days ago:
In a better world the driver wouldn’t be exploited in a gig economy and have little incentive to risk criminal charges for a fucking laptop.
You are completely running past socioeconomic factors to be the main driver of small scale crime.

Just plug it back in when transporting.

Now that we know, why the hell isn’t it on a chain right next to where it belongs`We have figured that much out for the bath-plug ffs.
- Comment on Hertz, showing the difference between science and engineering 1 week ago:
The problem isn’t the “AI”. It is people praising its babbling as the solution for everything.
- Comment on Hertz, showing the difference between science and engineering 1 week ago:
No fuel? All you need is something that makes a fire. And it is not like crude oil wasn’t know to people back then.
If the invention had been further explored it is entirely reasonable to assume people could have invented a “practical” steam engine 2.000 years ago. All it would have needed is fixing the steam exhaust and have it drive a shoveled wheel.

- Comment on What's the best way to respond to someone who says "transracial is just as valid as transgender"? 1 week ago:
That makes gender more like “ethnicity”/“race” rather than “culture” don’t you think?
- Comment on What's the best way to respond to someone who says "transracial is just as valid as transgender"? 1 week ago:
Problem is that “race” isn’t just cultural. How you will be treated definitely depends on how other people perceive your “race” and subsequently it will shape your life reality.
That person you gave as an example? In the US, Canada or most European countries he will be treated better than an actual Citizen born and raised in the respective country who is perceived as “black” or “brown”.

I remember having a lot of fun in the first two or three tiers of war thunder. But then the higher tiers hit, everything gets way too fast and you have to deal with too many sweaters.

The government was elected by the people.
You are German or you are at least able to speak it well. You know what is going on. You know how it is consistent. You know how much the country has shifted back to the right/far-right. You know how supposedly progressive parties are complicit in this.
- Comment on What was life like for the "average" person living in Nazi Germany 1 week ago:
The CSU, the bavarian sister of the CDU and party who runs the ministry of the interior had meetings with Trumps republicans to learn how to do Trumpism from them.
Merz said he supports Trumps demand for 5% of the German BIP being used for military expenses. That corresponds to half of the total government budget in Germany.
The new government is even more fiercely pro Israel than the previous one and like the US attacks the authority of the ICC and ICJ, which are core institutions of a rules based international order and by extension European integration.
- Comment on More like a bacterial infection imo 2 weeks ago:
Tariffs: never any externalities or unintended consequences; you will certainly not regret imposing tariffs.
That implies that Britain didn’t intend those consequences. But Britain has mastered using starvation as a weapon of genocide, in particular by masking it as an “unfortunate” result of taxes and tariffs.
Britain genocided more than ten million people in todays India about a century earlier and then again about three million in todays Bangladesh during World War II.
Britain murdered the Irish very much deliberately.

If you expect liberation or standing up for good in the world to come from Germany, you will be disappointed.
