      1. Very slightly better than Yoko Ono, definitely worse than fingernails-on-chalkboards – whoever THAT was…

    1. He is being kept alive for the next powerplay. He has abandoned Prigozhin at the last minute and his backers were just able to prevent Shoigu and Gerasimov from eliminating him… and now all failures at the front lines can no longer be blamed on him…

        1. Sure sure, among russian recent successes are the decimation of 72nd motorized brigade and following successful blasting of russian surrendering forces by their own artillery at Andriivka. And let’s not even start with the long list of successes of the Black Sea fleet.

          Also you’re seing Nazis like our PM seen them at Freedom Convoy, your big problem is that they just don’t make them Nazis like they used to: https://www.reddit.com/r/LoveForUkraine/comments/16l3wj6/here_is_a_picture_of_a_orthodox_jew_kissing_a/

If anyone wonders why prior to war attitudes in Ukraine were growing increasingly pro Western it is because millions of young Ukrainians, (possibly their best generation) experienced a functioning (somewhat) state, contrasted it with corrupt dysfunctional russian mir and made a clear choice what they wanted their country to become. And russia had no counteroffer other than brutality and corruption. Soft power baby. Russian mir is dead.

      1. Yes, you get to register your business in Poland, shocking I know, it is not a libertarian paradise after all.

    1. Likewise, the manufacturers of buggy whips were decimated by the success of the automobile.
      Reparations are owed! Henry Ford must be made to pay.

      These delusional portrayals of how idyllic (bison-dependent) life on the Great Plains was, prior to the onset of civilization are great comedy. The authors need only abandon all the fossil-fuel dependent trappings of their modern lives, and take up residence in a tepee to further convince us that a short and brutish life is lovely.

      1. It was the introduction of the horse that raised the importance of the bison to the plains ‘indian’. Prior to that the Buffalo was a minor component of the diet. First Nations owe compensation for the horse. Besides, the white man brought in KFC to replace the bison.

        1. Horses are actually native to North America. They went extinct in North America about 10,000 years ago.

          Perhaps the First Nations can explain this extinction?

          1. Yep! The Pleistocene overkill. Those large mammals that had no enemies until humans invaded the continent and killed most of the species.

    1. The article doesn’t really provide any information.

      How much electromagnetic radiation is emitted?

      Surely they could state the French government position, and the Apple position. And compare it to? I don’t know perhaps the amount of electromagnetic radiation coming from; a TV, the sun, etc
