I don't get it. It's already illegal for non-US-citizens to vote in a US election.
If a non-US person gets a residence visa ("Green Card") then this is all spelled out very clearly when you get it - any attempt at voting and you will be kicked out and not allowed to return.
Why do people put the asterisk into words for example "k*lled"? Does X have an algorithm which looks for words and deletes your post?
Sauce? Can't find it on CDAN site.
The Khameni is getting on in years (born 1939) so I guess the new guy can just wait and won't necessarily have to "go against him".
It's the opposite - our existing voting system is easy to understand and the alternative better systems are not so easy. That's why there has been so much resistance to making improvements. It's crazy that under the current system Reform got 3.7 million votes but only 5 seats in Parliament.
Lots of parties and lots of choice is ideally how it should be. Both in the US and UK we have become conditioned to accepting a choice of only two, the crap Red party and the identically crap Blue party.
Nigel Farage, leader of Reform Party, is very pro-zionist, although he tries to play it down and not talk much about it. If it were not for that I think your comment could have some merit.
He got interviewed on national MSM news (think it was Sky News) and the reporter asked him a direct question "which you do you prefer and find most useful, the UK Parliament or Davos?" [He had just returned from the WEF meeting at Davos]
He said Davos no question about it
They say he spent five years in jail. The real truth who knows?
"But it's not.backed by anything"
I've stopped even trying to answer that. People have used all sorts of weird things for money - notched sticks, stones with holes in, special seashellls. Tobacco used to be a prison currency but I hear these days it's pot noodles.
So long as everyone recognises it as money and so long as you can't just generate a new one easily then you're good to go. Yes I know Fed printer go brrr but they've got enough guns to make it stick.
Weather is crap here. The fake news are.pushing "warmest May ever, because climate emergency" but everyone knows we have been freezing our nuts off and all.our garden plants don't have the expected growth for the time of year. Im wearing my winter sweaters even though it is Summer Solstice this week. I'm in west London UK.
Here in UK, after Brexit, if I buy a silver coin or bar then it comes with 20% tax. Makes it kinda pointless unless you think silver is really going to the moon.
Basketball isn't really a thing in Europe and I have no idea who she is. Can frens fill in some context? Is there some kind of scam going on to keep her off the team? I've heard of Griner of course because Russia.
Passports have printed chevron symbols like this >>>>>>>>> and that area has to be scannned first to get the password to read the chip. So no possibily of anyone sneaking up next to you and grabbing your chip data so no need for RF shielding.
There is an EU standard for passport chips based on X.509 and I suspect it is a world standard. The front cover of the passport has a symbol to ahow compatibility. You can get Android apps to read the chip and see the certificate data.
Microwave does indeed destroy the chip but not a great benefit because they can still visually read the printed data. Also you cannot use the automatic entry gates and instead have to line up for a real border force person.
Africa is not a shithole. Some parts of some African countries are shitholes. But you could say that about anywhere.
I'd say about five years ago. I used to go to Munich quite frequently for work but it was always airport-office-hotel-airport. Once I got outside the "business bubble" and went around ordinary Munich that's when I realised I was not welcome.
As I say, Helsinki is even worse.
Germany wants to ban encryption but are getting resistance.
The decriminalising of child porn is so that people will rightly make a fuss and object. Then they can say "well it's too difficult to police unless we can ban encryption".
The Germans can be nasty like that. I'm white and when I was in Munich for a 2-day business trip I got snubbed all over the place for not being German. Finland is even worse.
I don't think it's OK to shoot people based on "they looked real suspicious foreigners and hanging around taking pictures".
I know things are different in the US but to the rest of the world trust me this just looks like excessive force and paranoia.
Is this story actually real? People get weird sometimes where child abuse is involved.
Firstly the screenshot contains a misspelling of "valiant" and I would have thought an authentic police organisation would not have made such a mistake in its official announcements.
Secondly the link does not work I get

Here in UK there were jab mandates for NHS (health service) workers who had contact with patients, and elderly care workers. Even those were heavily fought over and I don't think anyone was ever fired for refusal.
I don't work in those areas but I still had to face my company demanding that I either show digital evidence on my phone of prior covid injection, or take an on-the-spot test, before I could enter my office.
I had no jab and throughout the whole covid event never took a test even once, so I was not going to obey that. UK law requires that HR implement a conflict resolution procedure which HR absolutely love doing because it makes them feel important. Guess what they flat-out refused to do it when I objected to their restrictions. Soon afterwards the whole thing was quietly dropped, except that they scanned me with a thermal camera on entry and there was really nothing I could do about that.
tl;dr they already knew full well that their covid mandates were not enforceable by law.
Assume this is the controversy from 2017 https://www.marketingweek.com/munroe-bergdorf-loreal-controversy/
Bergdorf became L’Oréal’s first transgender model in 2017, but was dropped just two days later after publishing a post about racism and “the racial violence of white people” on Facebook. The beauty giant said the views expressed were “at odds” with its values.
It was later rehired to be on the L'Oreal "diversity committee"
Try finding a news outlet NOT sponsored (directly or indirectly) by the government, The BBC proclaims loudly that they are free and independent, yet we have to pay a TV tax and the money goes to them.
