Decathlon also does this in a bunch of locations in Europe.

Only if you were involved in the kidnapping, like paying them to do it.
Reading this I'm not sure I'd fault him even if that were the case.
Way it's going, everything will be Boeing.
And don't worry, any lost sales from bad press will be compensated from your taxes.
The thing with Mélenchon is that he's real flaky on Ukraine to the point of plausibly supporting Putin in his invasion. He has weird positions, he doesn't support Putin's domestic policy, yet he supports the annexation, but not the war.
I wonder if Macron stepping back when Mélenchon inches ahead will mean France will basically pull out of supporting Ukraine altogether.
I guess that's why I'm not planning to move to the US any time soon. The whole "you're scammed by default" thing. I don't want to be an expert on 30 different things just so that I don't get seriously fucked over every other day.
I used to live in a country that was similar in some ways, you had to triple check everything because every glorified "small business owner" was scummy, and the regulator was asleep at the wheel. I like my peace and quiet now.
Where did I say that? All I'm saying is that while the problem that women are underrepresented in politics is a real problem and we should elect more women, since women's issues also are usually underrepresented, we shouldn't elect or even cover people because of what's between their legs.
The Thatcher thing is that for example if the choice is between US Jewish Space Lasers Lady (just so that it's not the same person again) and her opponent, "voting for the woman" might get you an opposite effect that you expect on for example women's rights or the over all sanity of politics.
There are a ton of great women in politics, like Sanna Marin, elect more of them. But elect them because of their work, not their genitalia.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a "US bread lines" shill, I'm just saying overdraft fees are criminal and would have killed me as a student.
From what I hear, banks drain US accounts on their own just fine.
I browse Reddit only for one sub, a country-specific one that is reasonably niche. Right when the API migration happened, there seemed to be a very visible migration of Facebook/Instagram people migrating over to Reddit. Posts asking where to find Instagram/Facebook functionality came in daily, and the overall quality of both comments and posts degraded a lot, suddenly posts had a ton of comments with one word and a ton of emojis.
only seven of the top 20 most prominent figures in election coverage have been women
That stat only makes sense if compared with the ratio of women vs men in politics. It's either legitimate, or it's like someone saying "100% of the coverage in the US presidential election goes to male candidates". I'm not saying it's as it should be, it's just maybe the problem is one level deeper, that there aren't enough women in politics, not that they don't get covered.
That said, just based on experience with other nations' politics (I don't know enough about the UK), it looks like progressives elect whoever based on policy, and it may be a man or a woman, but conservatives in general like their strong men, so in aggregate there are just more men.
My point is, maybe it just goes back to "let's fix politics". And all that said, more coverage may get more women elected, but on the other hand, maybe it all should be more about policy, lest we get more Thatchers.
To be honest, it's not even the "they came for you" bit, they are just coming for themselves now. I mean, if the orange idiot succeeds in dismantling NATO and imposing sanctions on US trade, China will def be the new leading superpower.
NATO is what props the dollar up. They are trying to undo the change in foreign relations the US made in WWII, and they will def get back to the pre-WWII US as a result.
The case is basically that having a non-tracking paid tier makes no difference, the free tier if it exists can't include mandatory tracking.
So they can offer a paid tier with no tracking, but they must also offer no tracking on the free tier.
