But it's not her, she was never "undressed against her will", the cops do that with strip searches, or if you go to prison but no popular uproar against that, so presumably folks are ok with others being made naked by force but once again, this is not that.

The much down voted op you replied to is right, the issue is societal puratism. This is like they put her head on Daisy Duck. Would anyone but WB give a fuck in that instance ?

An Australian soldier who spent several years fighting for Ukraine has been remembered as someone who "gave his life so others could keep theirs".

Brave and wonderful guy, sorry for his families loss :(

As an Australian, i wish we could join the EU. It's a grand experiment bringing people together and i wish we were part of it in this worsening and fractious world.

Have to appeal to religious nutters who (and by this I mean Christians, other relegions see no issue AFAIK) have lobby groups in parliament

Another example

https://womensagenda.com.au/politics/local/anti-abortion-activist-joanna-howe-banned-from-south-australias-upper-house-for-allegedly-threatening-politicians/

Anti-abortion activist Joanna Howe has been banned from South Australia’s upper house for allegedly using “threatening” tactics towards politicians.

In another incident roughly a week earlier, Dr Howe sparked outrage by labelling prominent women– such as SA Greens leader Tammy Franks– as members of a “baby-killers club” on social media. Franks responded, saying the posts were intended to incite hatred.

Visa's will be an issue in Vietnam. Uness you plan to live there full time (somehow??), learning Vietnamese probably isn't worth it as it's the only place that speaks it (unlike say Spanish or French)

Next door in Camboida, you can stay as long as you want. T visa and just extend. Philippines is mostly easier, English is widely used but its sea locked, and it's one of the most disater prone places on the planet and while the islands are amazing, travel is a bitch. Thailand is difficult with visas as well. Malaysia I know nothig of. Laos is an interestig place but super poor.

None of these places give you the same rights as citizens and they're all either very difficult, or very expensive to gain permenant resident status or citizenship.

No, kill people who "they" think don't contribute to get the population level well down to 'save the environment'

To be fair we deliberately kill people in their millions now, 9 million a year from starvation, another 9 million from air pollution.etc

An example of an eco fascist ?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentti_Linkola

Linkola blamed humans for the continuous degradation of the environment. He promoted rapid population decline to combat the problems commonly attributed to overpopulation. Linkola also defended an end to immigration, the reversion to pre-industrial life ways, and authoritarian measures to keep human life within strict limits.

On the 101st anniversary of Finland's independence, Linkola was announced as the winner of a poll conducted by the national broadcaster Yle to determine who had done the most to preserve Finland's natural heritage.[19]

I do think his book "Will life Prevail" is worth a read and I do agree with him that the worst human invention ever is the road.

Tramlines, particularly in the capitalist west of the divided city, were ripped out to make way for motorists, and bicycles were muscled out of the main traffic arteries. The autogerechte Stadt (car-friendly city) was born.

Fast forward 80 years and the dream of carefree individualised transport has regained a stronghold in the German capital. In fact, as cities like Paris, Amsterdam and Copenhagen embrace increasingly climate-, bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly policies, critics say Berlin is zooming full-throttle in reverse.

This month, the city announced – to great fanfare – a drive to plant 1m healthy trees lining the streets by 2040 to help absorb emissions at a cost of €3.2bn. However, experts were quick to point out the irony that rigid road laws may stand in the way, requiring zoning permission for each new sapling.

On Thursday night, hospital staff could not promptly transfer Somkhuan, 69, who was in critical condition after an acute myocardial infarction, or heart attack, and respiratory failure, to Krabi Hospital in Muang district.

They could not manoeuvre her in through the rear door of the ambulance because the man's pickup truck was parked so closely behind it outside the hospital entrance. The man was at first reluctant to move his vehicle, causing even greater delay.

Wtf ?

.“I wasn’t against the president trying it, because I think we needed better trade deals,” added the 54-year-old of Trump’s policies. “I was hoping it would get resolved sooner.”

Wjy ? Why the fcuk would.you think that ? It didn't work last time, after all

From 2018 to 2019, retaliatory tariffs caused more than $27bn in US agriculture export losses. The government provided $23bn to help farmers hit by trade disputes

Then and now... Why do you even need government support, sounds like that there commie talk!.

Crop revenues are lower, yet costs for everything from fertilisers to equipment have ballooned as Trump’s new tariffs bite.

Asked if economic conditions have changed his feelings about supporting Trump, Hutchison paused: “It makes me think a little bit more.”

Perhaps some of that thinking shoukd be done prior to casting your vite ? After all you had a.go 'round last time to.ahow.you hkw badnit would be when u piss in your main customers face ffs.
