That sounds pretty reasonable, may I ask which country you live in? Or in which region of the world?

So you would say that the law usually corresponds to what you perceive as justice?

Are you satisfied overall with the decisions made by your courts?

It’s just sad.

That’s true, but he will still need new buyers because his previous allies, whom he has alienated greatly, will very likely reduce their order volume considerably.

I think that this so-called statesman, with his petty power games, has once again overestimated himself on this issue - as with others issues but in the same stupid manner.

That doesn’t seem unlikely to me, since Trump has destroyed the basis of trust with his allies and is thus doing considerable damage to one of the few US industries that is still functioning well, namely the arms industry.

Perhaps he somehow thought that Europe would buy the weapons needed to equip itself because he has unilaterally terminated NATO protection from US companies. Maybe a few that you can’t get anywhere else, but the EU would be incredibly stupid to buy from a nation that is now hostile to it.

So other buyers will probably have to be found - although Russia has its own arms industry and is also on good terms with China. Moreover, unlike Trump, Putin really isn’t an idiot.

But hey, maybe the EU can negotiate a billion-euro arms deal with Russia to get better conditions for Ukraine.

It would hardly be any different from buying weapons from the US.

Never mind. Russia is calling the shots on their side anyway.

I wonder what it was used for

Thanks for doing that!

Maybe also !world@lemmy.world and !usa@midwest.social

Sounds very illegal to me, but I’m from Europe.

Do you have a very good print regional newspaper or are you saying that these protests are not worth real-time coverage?

Do you think reddit is immune to the oligarchs? I don’t think so at all.

Edit: What I’m saying is: post here rather than on reddit. There are no current updates in the Lemmy community. And I’m assuming that the discussion is taking place on reddit because everyone is somehow still there. Why is that? Why is everyone still there when it’s clear as day that reddit is so rotten that Aaron Swartz would roll over in his grave if he had to witness that.

That helps me a lot. Thank you very much.

Thousands of demonstrators rallied at hundreds of events on Saturday (…)

Thousands? Were there just 100 protestors at 100 events? That would be already 10,000…WTF…

Edit: If this is true (thousands in Portland alone) - and why wouldn’t it be - it’s a massive understatement by the New York Times…and this is prolly one of the few more or less independent/somewhat objective outlets left. C’mon…

You saw the movie and missed that it’s a satire? Are you serious?

Have you seen Starship Troopers?

Absolutely!

It’s great to see how many people are taking a stand against hatred and intolerance.

Well, many Germans also thought at the time that they might be able to get rid of Hitler in the usual way - unfortunately we all know how that turned out.

Every US citizen who wants to prevent the same thing from happening in the States should go and protest today. Find an event near you and show the fascists that they can expect resistance.

Best of luck from Europe.
