He got offered a promotion where leaving, because he decided to leave. That promotion was always available but only offered when was necessary. They likely were having that labor for free without the promotion and just riding on his goodwill. That said now the decision is simpler, why would you like to stay where you were not valued for your quality of work? Yeah the new job can be all kinds of different but is additional experience and OP indicates he loves the move. To me, this is an easy one.

- Comment on Nicaragua Shutters 1,500 Nonprofit Groups, Many of Them Churches 3 months ago:
While I see what you are trying to do , it reduces the magnitude of the issue at hand in Nicaragua.
A lot of these non profit cover for the gaps in the social network and supplement what the government can’t or won’t do for any reason.
This is bad for people and not for the government and should be condemned.
For the churches in Texas if we could just enforce the separation of state and religion AND political opinions there so they should be taxed, that’d be enough.

- Comment on Opinion | Why Has Obamacare Worked? 8 months ago:
You only have to see who’s using the product. The top city in the US enrolled in Obamacare is NW Miami city of Hialeah.
This city, who’s motto is “the city that progress” is a bastion of Cuban exiles who will swear on an American flag against anything socialist as it’s akin to their former country.
Here in the US they pay their premiums and get coverage without insurers distorting the market with exclusions on preexisting conditions and age.If they’ll can get better leaning on this policy, I’m all for it even when I don’t support their radical views, because policies are for the good of everyone.

Certainly, here are some notable instances involving French colonial forces:
-
Algerian War of Independence (1954–1962): This was a significant and violent decolonization conflict where Algerian nationalists sought independence from French colonial rule. The French military’s efforts to suppress the independence movement resulted in large numbers of casualties, including civilians. Tactics such as the use of torture, mass executions, and the creation of internment camps were reported. The exact number of Algerian casualties is disputed, but estimates suggest that the death toll could be in the range of hundreds of thousands.
-
The Madagascar Uprising (1947): In Madagascar, a nationalist uprising against French colonial rule was met with severe repression. French forces were accused of committing numerous atrocities in their effort to suppress the rebellion, including summary executions, village burnings, and torture. Estimates of the Malagasy deaths vary widely, with some suggesting that the number could be as high as 100,000.
-
Indochina War (1946–1954): This conflict in French Indochina, which includes modern-day Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, was fought between French colonial forces and the Viet Minh, led by Ho Chi Minh, who sought independence. The war was marked by guerrilla warfare and significant civilian casualties, with both sides accused of atrocities. The use of forced labor, internment camps, and the bombing of civilian areas contributed to a high death toll.
These examples reflect the complex and often brutal nature of colonial rule and the struggle for independence. They involve a wide range of actions and policies implemented by French military and colonial authorities, which led to significant loss of life and suffering among the colonized populations.
