I imagine the extent of media coverage might also greatly influence how a perpetrator is treated. But probably also true skin colour / cultural background greatly influences the amount of media coverage. To be honest, I think we as humans are all at least a bit racist and xenophobic (or just phobic in general for sure), but we really can't allow the way our brains are wired to decide how well or badly we treat other human beings.

Most recently Japan occupied them... Quite brutally, once Japan was defeated in WW2 a pro China guy up north and pro US government in the south formed...

You know you really made it as a country when your recent history is all about which country owned you before and which owns you now.

That sounds great, but I'd like I even more if we make those carriages breathe out fumes that slowly break the entire ecosystem.

At least you can download the entire DeepSeek model.

That doesn't say anything about the input being stored/processed. Germany being more trustworthy of US companies compared to a Chinese one isn't very strange. Not saying US companies should be trusted.

Ikr, it's unbelievable. I wish at least there was like this one story of a leaked spy thing we did to Russia, but there seems to be nothing except support Ukraine (at least there is that).

Italy, Spain and three other southern EU countries have criticised a proposed Franco-British migration deal, arguing it could leave them having to take back people returned from the UK to the continent.

The five nations, which also include Greece, Malta and Cyprus, have sent a letter to the European Commission, seen by the Financial Times, objecting to France negotiating an arrangement to swap asylum seekers with Britain in a bid to deter migrants from crossing the Channel in boats.

Maybe only because there are no genie laws to begin with 😵.

Yesterday someone posted a link to an article in The Sun, it's headline was Britain’s migrant crisis being fuelled by Putin’s Russia and other hostile states in secret plot to destabilise UK; I feel I might just as well copy and paste my comment to that post:

The amount of shit Russia pulls without getting any kind repercussion truly astonishes me.

Thanks for giving an extensive answer, wish I could give you more than one upvote in return. I feel there is so much misinformation it gets harder to trust media. But also activist aren't always trustworthy, this seeming to prove that once more.

I'm pasting the description of that post here, because it might mean someone reads this who otherwise wouldn't have:

Israeli soldiers in Gaza told Haaretz that the army has deliberately fired at Palestinians near aid distribution sites over the past month. Conversations with officers and soldiers reveal that commanders ordered troops to shoot at crowds to drive them away or disperse them, even though it was clear they posed no threat.

"It's a killing field," one soldier said. "Where I was stationed, between one and five people were killed every day. They're treated like a hostile force – no crowd-control measures, no tear gas – just live fire with everything imaginable: heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, mortars. Then, once the center opens, the shooting stops, and they know they can approach. Our form of communication is gunfire."

The soldier added, "We open fire early in the morning if someone tries to get in line from a few hundred meters away, and sometimes we just charge at them from close range. But there's no danger to the forces." According to him, "I'm not aware of a single instance of return fire. There's no enemy, no weapons." He also said the activity in his area of service is referred to as Operation Salted Fish – the name of the Israeli version of the children's game "Red light, green light".

I heard about a plan for a law on having designated places for vehicles charging (since they're much less likely to catch fire when they're turned off), with things like not below ground where fire dept. can't reach them, not near staircases, not close to electrical facilities etc. Seems like common sense, but until we have such regulations this will happen again.
