Yes. Europe isn’t the magical forward thinking land it’s made it to be lol. Well, most of it isn’t, anyway. Still a great place to spend some time though.

Oh absolutely, I’m not denying that. War criminals in both countries should all be dealt with harshly and quickly.

Based on just the article linked, it sounds more like they’re prohibiting the use of publicly owned property or public funding to enable religious expression. In the context of a French legal tradition I don’t really see how prohibiting the use of public property in religious expression is the same as banning expression generally except in private. I think conflating the two is a bit of a tortured analogy grounded in American legal thought, although I do agree that it seems motivated, at least in large part, by Islamophobia.

Once again showing that the IDF are absolute fucking animals.

Ah yes, conscripts. They make the best armies.

Seems like a good place to drop this very timely link from one of my favorite youtubers:

Stars, but we all knew that meant invincibility.

Not OP and not particularly knowledgeable, but under Modi India has shifted into something closer to old-school, early 1900s fascism than almost any other country currently. For example, his rise to power was largely on the back of inciting mob violence against Muslims while giving the perpetrators impunity. He continued that policy on the national level, and his party’s paramilitary wing is much like the Brownshirts.
