No one in Europe calls it that, though ;-)

Not UPA, but the topic of UPA is popular within the right-wing populist. They want to keep this a hot topic, while rest of us would rather keep this in the past. Such provocation initiated by those populists doe not seem completely unlikely. Russian influence or just a particularly stupid Ukrainian teen seem more likely explanation to me.

Safer roads would mean a lot of environment destruction in such case (and very high cost, for the low traffic there). I would rather wear some hi-vis and keep narrow rural roads rural and narrow.

Do you even know what we are talking about? The migrants in question are not Russians. They are asylum seekers, people from Middle East or and Africa, tricked by Russians, Belarusians and smugglers into taking the route through Polish eastern border when looking for a better life in the West. They are denied asylum, brutally pushed back to Belarus (which pushes them back to Poland), often dying in the forest and swamps.

In fact Russians (most probable insurgents), as white people, would get much easier pass there.

And I am not talking about ‘accepting blindly’ anyone crossing the border. Just following the law (Polish and international ) and some human decency (like providing health care for sick and wounded) would do.

Now this is a completely separate problem. One that has Russia and Hybrid Warfare written all over it.

Even if ‘Hybrid Warrfare written all over’, the people being used there, are still people and should have their rights and dignity preserved. Do not let people die just because ‘Russia sent them’.

Yes, recently a lot of people came here. With various skin colours. From the East, from the South, but even from the West (a lot of Americans would rather live here). I love seeing them in my city, hearing all those different languages. Also: Ukrainian shops, Georgian bakeries, various Asian restaurants – these make the city a better place to live for everybody.

But there are people who chose hatred instead. Of course only those with darker skin are considered threat. Or speaking Russian-like language (which includes Ukrainians and Belarusians).

When no migrants were coming here the nationalists/racists were mostly ridiculous, but now they are great threat to many people who live here, or just come here for a visit.

And how do the USA tariffs lower the costs of producing Canadian steel? If the costs are the same, but the prices drop, then the production becomes less profitable or even at loss. How this would help Canadian industry when the steel production is forced to stop? Other countries have already lost their production capabilities similar way, it is natural that Canada tries to be more careful.

Amazon already makes money on many products that should not be sold, as are fake or/and dangerous. They will still be making money by selling smuggled good. ‘It is not us, it is the independent seller. We just provide a platform. Will still work.’

Isn’t he supposed to be ‘the left’?

I can confirm that ‘error’ and ‘mistake’ is the same word in Polish. I don’t think it matters here, though. And I am sure that Mr Sikorski knows the difference. His speech, although often harsh, is very diplomatic. When he says ‘Trump made a mistake’ it can safely be read as ‘Trump is a complete idiot’.

I am not sure about that ‘in practice’ in Russia. People falling from windows or dying in labor camps are not just accidents.

Probably the logic of the ruling party: this president is not great, but if we impeach him now there will be elections and a new president will be elected, this time one from the opposition party. Competent president working for the other party might be considered worse than an incompetent and corrupt one.

I am sure they would vote for impeachment if they had real chances of winning the presidential elections.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about Korean politics, except some recent headlines.

Unfortunately they started to play with AI too :-(

I hope they can be held accountable for mistreating those 'transplants" (what an ugly word!) too. But I guess that would be easier here in EU than in USA.

For now it seems the military took over. They say ‘temporarily’, but they always say that… it might, as well, be just a change of the dictator. Let’s hope it is not the case, this time.

Oil is lighter than water, so, in water, it will ‘want to go up’ rather than down. I guess something like reversed syphon could be possible. I am not sure if the density difference is enough for this to be practical, though.

Valid point, but leaving thins as is does not seem like the optimal solution. Maybe the mods could occasionally post examples of removed spam/bot content, for transparency and awareness. Leaving this to random users can end with more mistakes and actual abuse.

Also, the troll/bot comments and discussion around them will less disturbing outside of the intended context (where they were posted to cause disturbance or misinformation).
