I get the feeling that governments around the world now view terrorism or terrorist attacks as an opportunity to further some other political agenda.
Not saying that they do or don’t commit these acts but that they may allow for something to happen by relaxing anti-terror measures in order to gain the political consent for whatever project that they would otherwise be met with serious opposition for (internal or external).
Clearly they took a photo before the disabled kids got organised and came down, which was a bit of a mistake, and then offered parents the choice which was a much bigger mistake.
Quite. Conspiracy theories always seem to emerge when the most obvious cause of a terrorist act is beacuse a country’s security and intelligence services are caught with their pants down.
Interesting to see that Tajiks were involved in foiled terror attacks in NL and Germany.
So are we saying that the US, the UK and Ukraine are behind these as well to make the Tajiks in Moscow look more credible?
Or has there maybe just been an uptick in ISIS recruitment in the Eurasian step and these sleeper cells are being activated now? More than 4,000 tajiks apparently answered the ISIS call when the caliphate was still running.
Applicable to recreational weed, saving the environment, reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ rights, financial regulatory reform, student debt reform, the list goes on and on.
I’m sure people who had opposing views to you on all the issues you just mentioned might say the same of you and believe the world would be better if you couldn’t vote.
Also, I don’t think the age demographic is the only reason for division on all the issues you mentioned.
Well yeah. We’ve got plenty of right wingers here who don’t want people voting. That’s why they’ve gone all in on wacky conspiracy theories around mail-in voting and pushing lies about voter fraud.
I used to think this but some of the vilest pricks we got here are young fresh from the student unions with no experience and look to politicians for a career in and of itself - so just crave power.
We definitely have some real younger shitheads. People like Madison Cawthorn, Lauren Bobert, Anna Paulina Luna who are all under 40. Charlie Kirk is also a conservative political activist who’s younger and a real piece of shit. I’d probably throw Ben Shapiro in that crowd too. He’s awful.
