I dont know where this guy got his stats from, but the European nations had fertility rates over replacement rate until the 70's.
Also, the Chechens arent interesting in any land outside of Chechnya, and their birth rate is already low and declining.
The AZ vaccine is safe. There have not been any deaths from it here in the UK and as the countries which have suspended its use have said, any links currently are tenuous between AZ and a very small handful of cases.
Compare that to the tens of millions who have had it without issue.
I would recommend Apocalypse Never: How Climate Alarmism Hurts Us by Michael Shellenberger.
Michael Shellenberger is a climate analyst and researcher who also has 30+ years of climate work and activism under his belt.
He currently works for the IPCC as a senior analyst. He used to be Obama's chief environmental advisor.
Effectively he has written his book as a full denunciation of climate alarmism, and debunks pretty much everything the media keeps parroting to us about the climate.
There never will be a climate apocalypse. Because 99% of the issues attributed to climate change have nothing to do with climate change.
Its also a really good book for citations, as the last 100 pages of it is just a very long list of scientific citations.
I have not heard of any sort of ritualistic rape of male populations in the Balkans by the Ottomans, let alone any sort of conscription rape
He's referring to the young boys abducted by the Ottomans for use in the Jannisaries.
Abducted as young as 3, raped, forcefully converted to islam, castrated and then used as disposable footsoldiers.
What 'massacres' is this dude referring to?
I dont really know as much about French colonial history as I do about other nations, but I am hard pressed to think of any massacres perpetrated by the French against Muslims.
Ever since the devolved government acts in 1997 Scotland has been dominated by Labour (socialists) and later the SNP (even worse socialists).
For some reason, despite literally everything being far worse in Scotland now than it was just 10 years ago, the Scots seem to still overwhelmingly support the SNP and their governance.
Its ridiculous.
Linux went full retard a couple years ago.
Microsoft joins these things but then doesnt really do much in them. Its a PR stunt for MS.
Whereas Linus Tovalds and many Linux distro devs have swallowed the kool aid.
Know some guys who know guys in MS. Its pretty much the marketing and HR departments that look into and join these things (or, well, force MS to do it). The tech teams and sales teams dont give a shit and just want results and sales, respectively.
EDIT: Also helps that MS's current CEO isnt an idiot.
rowing back on his disastrous Covid policy,
This is where she lost me.
The UK covid policy has been effective.
When comparing based on population density, the UK has done far better than most other nations.
On a per-capita basis we are pretty much middle of the road.
Boris and co also wanted to go with the 'Herd Immunity' idea which has worked fantastically in Sweden, Japan, Taiwan etc but was shouted down by Labour, the Media and groups with a vested interest in making the government look bad.
EDIT: I also dont like how she (and the comments) is blaming the conservatives entirely for this.
The government didnt want to enact a lockdown. They didnt want to restrict freedoms.
But every step of the way, the media, Labour and vested interest groups screeched and screamed that the government wasnt doing enough, that they wanted the poor to die, that they didnt care etc. And somehow that rhetoric worked as it reduced the governments support (although its been holding steady at a constant 42-45% support, same as the General Election last december).
If anyone should be blamed, its Labour, the Media and those groups with a vested interest in demonising the government.
By all accounts Trump mostly did well in the debate.
Apparently support among many demographics is up, including a massive increase among hispanics.
And the Proud Boys arent white supremacists. One of their founding members was a black cuban and half their members are latino or pacific islanders. Hardly the makings of KKK 2.0.
I bet once you play the game that the story will probably be incredibly sympathetic to the communist ideals, with the twist being that the capitalists were the bad guys all along.
I don't think so. In a previous Black ops game they showed a Soviet Gulag and they are generally pretty scathing towards socialist/communist regimes and very pro-west.
The asexual character is an actively murderous psychopath whose sole joy in life is the pain and suffering of others. He's certainly not in hell because he's not hetero.
Yeah, he gets off on causing pain/suffering and/or manipulating people. He may not even be asexual, he just doesnt have time for that whilst there are people to make suffer.
Charlotte/Charlie and her GF Vaggie
Charlie is bisexual and Vaggie is supposed to have been a prostitute in life and so is likely bisexual too.
But yeah, everyone in the show except Charlie is a terrible person. Which considering the setting really shouldnt surprise anyone.
And Disney has adopted the Cal-arts style of stupid, lazy drawing.
The final foot in the grave is when they ultimately make a meme reality (black, fat, disabled, Muslim, lesbian main character is only around the corner, i bet).
She's wrong about when Britain was no longer considered a major power.
That was the debacle regarding the Suez Canal.
Singapore got its independence peacefully. That Singapore and Malaysia got into a bit of a spat is nothing to do with Britain.
Eh, Paradox games havent been a broken mess on launch for a while now (at least since EU4). At least in terms of bugs and similar issues.
The only issue recent releases have had is that they have been dumbed down or extremely barebones on launch.
Imperator was the worst for both of the above. So dumbed down it and reliant on 'mana' that it was effectively an extremely basic map painter set in the classical/very early roman period and so barebones that it was barely playable for more than a few hours.
Thankfully Paradox seems to have learnt their lesson form that game.
I mean, its possible that this is a roundabout way of pushing councils to prosecute the pakistani grooming gangs.
"Oh you need to meet these new rape convictions? Well there seems to be a number of people who need convicting right over there....."
Boris and the government have been doing a good job since the election. Loads of minor and even major issues that havent been reported on the MSM at large have been dealt with fine by cabinet ministers, the economy has been handled well by Sunak (yes, we have had a drop in GDP thanks to the pandemic but every other nation has as well), Brexit negotiations are going fine, Cummings has been reforming the civil service so its less idiotic/jobs for life/treacherous etc.
There have been very few slip ups/mistakes.
If I remember correctly the CPS didnt say this, someones lawyer was arguing that the bible was no longer relevant.
The CPS hasnt, as far as I can tell, ruled on the case yet.
