When I was a kid or youngster end 80s, beginning 90s I haven’t heard about kids that would accept to be hired to kill a Person, nor a similar thought crossed my mind. I have sometimes the impression that there is huge increase in violence among young people in the last two decades.

Kick Corrumpino out and take all the money from him what he has earned since being FIFA president.

The title makes it sound as if Tusk ignored the attacks until now and is only speaking up because, in his view, Ukrainians have already been beaten enough.

These countries may now trade even more with each other, leaving the US out. This can pretty well backfire on US economy and I hope, not for the saint US people, but for this guy and his followers, that this will be the case.

I assume Poland is several decades behind Japan - especially when I see some clips from the Shinkansen Maglev 😳

It’s interesting to see how many ideological people there are on Lemmy, especially how they react when someone points out that their own behavior isn’t necessarily any different. It doesn’t leave me very optimistic about society’s ability to improve.

I don’t engage at this level anymore, where people show no respect. Many people seem to be dealing with problems in their lives and are looking for an outlet to vent their frustration here. I let myself get caught up in that frustration for a brief moment, but this is silly and a waste of time. Nope, not with me.

I didn’t expect Lemmy to reach this kind of chan-level behavior so quickly. I’m happy to continue a civil discussion, but otherwise I’ll leave it here and delete my previous comment.

(1) Why the hack you are putting your nose in this conflict? (2) Why are you defending somebody, who is calling other people „fucking morons“? (3) You make an active effort? What do you think how many people around you in different ages trying to make an effort at their best in their current situation? A poor person, living in the streets, causes less gas emission than you, so let‘s go and live on the streets. Or don’t you want to leave your comfort zone to really battle climate warming?

As I see it, this is for one specific reason only: I don’t believe it’s the different cultural values from immigration that bothers them (they are literally moving into a wholly foreign culture; although I’m sure the Orthodox church gives some perverse appeal), but I believe they are bothered by ethnicity/skin colour.

So, because you don’t believe it, it cannot be true? Resembles the same small world view which Nazis have - sorry, I need to add to be in line with your words: I believe.

So, the phrase “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” seems to be unknown to the younger generation. That doesn’t surprise me.

They stay there. Those who wanted really to leave, left. Or did your forget about the traffic at the frontier to Finland or to Georgia or to Turkey or to … BTW, looking at Romania, Poland and their revolution against the « communistic » regimes, well, that was some chuzpe, which unfortunately I cannot see in Russia.

Being unaware of local customs isn’t a good reason to complain about them. Just learn them. If you travel without taking five minutes to understand the local culture, don’t be surprised when you run into unpleasant surprises.

Not hard to understand, innit?

They won’t attack Poland as the current Polish president is boot licking Trump and an attack on Poland would potentially involve the US. So, I believe this is this usual fearmongering by the Polish elite with respect to a potential attack on Poland.

The Baltic states are indeed different: (1) little US support if whatever, (2) small countries, easy to invade larger parts, (3) a weak EU which prefers to raise fingers than to act and (4) which is flooded with politicians who are Putin’s puppets and losers, who are all talking the same time about independence, sovereignty and nationalism. I have words for these people mod may block me, so I remain quite.

No one asked them to go there, and it is all known and written in so many subs what the US tipping culture is about. Own fault. They should stop behave like 5 year old.

Yep, and please prevent them from ever coming back. May they rot in Russia.

Discouraging is only that there are still people like you around who think they have a clue, while after just a few comments it becomes obvious that they know very little about the subject they are talking about. Mentioning Occam’s Razor, a basic concept, which you even managed to misinterpret, was clear evidence of that. Even worse, instead of engaging in a technical discussion like someone genuinely interested in science would do, you increasingly turned the conversation into amateur psychoanalysis about my ego. That told me everything I needed to know. You are free to continue writing comments, but I won’t be answering them. If you consider that a win, that’s entirely up to you.

The more you write about science, statistics, and causality, the more obvious it becomes that your confidence is doing the heavy lifting where methodological understanding should be.

If he would be Pinocchio, his nose would be ranging to the Mars and probably back. No need for Elon to create a shuttle then except a train shuttle on the nose.
