Now you lost me, surely Hitler was being appeased by the Allies allowing him to do things they would've preferred him not to do?

Ah yes, Russia and China, so well known for following international law to the letter.

It's not appeasement if the party being "appeased" is not opposed to you to begin with.

Because the US geopolitical goals and actions, while often reprehensible, generally speaking aren't against Swedish interests, whereas Russia is a much more direct threat to Sweden.

Why does China keep appeasing the US by not sending weapons to support Russia?

Can you explain why Russia and China haven't sanctioned the US if they are so opposed to what the US is doing?

Also funny how this "appeasement never works" fanaticism never applies to NATO and it's members

Yeah, funny how Russia, China and friends haven't sanctioned the US and other countries. They have the full right to do that instead of continuing to appease them.

Russia can't conquer even a quarter of Ukraine, and they still invaded Ukraine. Sweden and Finland know that Russia can't conquer them, and that knowledge has made them stay neutral in the past. But Russia has just shown with Ukraine that they might try anyway just because, and it's a huge pain in the ass for Ukraine and for everybody else in Europe too. So it's only natural that Sweden and Finland would like to avoid even being tried to be conquered by Russia.

And like we can see, the Russian invasion of Ukraine also impacts France, the UK, and Canada. It's not that these countries have decided to brainlessly follow the US. They want to support other countries who are at more risk of being invaded by Russia because countries being invaded by Russia is a huge pain in the ass for everybody in the region, not just the country being invaded. So their foreign policy goals simply happen to line up with the US goals.

Ah yes the US foreign policy of "not being invaded by Russia"

Yeah, I'm very confused by the "8 pets are allowed" and "4 pets are allowed", it reads to me like "You can have 8 pets as long as you have at most 4 pets" which obviously makes no sense.

This is looking really cool! I'm really interested in trying it out.

Since you mentioned Garmin Connect in this thread, I would like to throw in my five cents too. I'm in the Garmin ecosystem for my fitness tracking devices, so it would be amazing if the game could get my step counts from Garmin Connect, since that's where I'm collecting them anyway, and lugging my phone around to do the step counting can be a bit cumbersome. But if the game is fun enough, I guess it's not a dealbreaker for the time being!

cops have learned to just play copyrighted music (say the Frozen soundtrack)

I hope they've secured the proper licenses for a public performance of that music.

I was never a fan of Calibri but the new font looks way too Arial-like for my taste.
