As climate change ravages Europe, the cars will survive.

His coaching from his campaign is showing through. They desperately want him to be the law and order candidate, "weathering the storm from the militant left", but he just can't help but attack the left and encourage further violence. He will sabotage his own campaign and image if he starts encouraging violence here.

He's implying that he thinks that someone should, but even the literal point he's making is not true.

I mean even before the war ends, 19% interest is not stable. Capital investment has fallen to a third of what it once was. (ignoring forced investments needed to workaround sanctions) The Russians will also run out of old Soviet stockpile weapons which will be a major hit to their GDP as Russia starts to go into recession.

This is worse than you think. Most countries don't criminalize use, only possession. Criminalizing use like Sweden does likely means that even having cannabis in your system is illegal and could lead to fines, criminal record, and jail time. It's insanely backwards.

Seems like a predjudice thing to me, like a slur for farmer.

Well I do, and I refuse to vote for politicians that support dictators. If everybody thinks like that, then even the most self-serving, jingoistic politicians have an interest in protecting human rights.

It would be great to have closer ties to Asia. The concern is the imperialist claims to Taiwan and the whole Xi dictatorship thing. We have already learned what trading with an imperialist dictator does to Europe after Putin. Just blindly jumping into a closer relationship with Xi without a carrot and stick and without building closer cultural ties to the Chinese, Tibetan, and Uighur people, will only backfire for Europe.

It's not a cold war, a trade war, or any sort of economic competition thing, it's just concern over the volatility and human rights issues of dictatorships.

As an aside, Sanchez is missing the fact that the EV tarriffs were implemented in response to excessive state aid by the PRC. It's not good for him to promise to drop the tarriffs without committing to more negotiation regarding the EU's concerns about state aid.

pretty sure Republicans care about counterpoints if their counterpoint to "Republicans are shutting down the govt" is "them illegals!". The correct reply is "your kids!"

"CrowdStrike is far from the only security firm to trigger Windows crashes with a driver update. Updates to Kaspersky and even Windows’ own built-in antivirus software Windows Defender have caused similar Blue Screen of Death crashes in years past."

"'People may now demand changes in this operating model,' says Jake Williams, vice president of research and development at the cybersecurity consultancy Hunter Strategy. 'For better or worse, CrowdStrike has just shown why pushing updates without IT intervention is unsustainable.'"
