No, not true. They are saying that this time they knew to watch close, so the Democrats couldn't pull of the same fraud as 2020. They are indeed stating that it is "supisious" that 13 Million Democratic voices where nowhere to be seen this time around, taking that as proof they were right all along.

That's how this works. You take reality and then make it mean what you want it to mean. So that's their take in regards to voter fraud.

"Wir sollten zukünftig noch stärker betonen, dass der katholische oder der konfessionell-kooperativ erteile Religionsunterricht auch offen für konfessionslose Schülerinnen und Schüler ist", sagte Kopp.

Nene, danke, aber nein danke. Ich bin ganz froh das meine Kinder nicht mehr als nötig mit religiöser Propaganda in Berührung kommen werden. Jeder darf natürlich religiös sein wie er oder sie will, aber die Entscheidung ob eine Religion (und wenn dann welche) darf dann doch bitte jeder Mensch treffen, wenn er oder sie das reflektiert tun kann.

"Minorities" are actually dangerously close to becoming the majority in most White/first world nations.

That kind of lies.

At the time of the 2021/22 Census, 16% of people in the UK had been born abroad – a total of around 10.7 million migrants. Although the foreign-born population has increased further between 2021 and 2024, no reliable data are available for later years.

There is this, where a anonymous person has reported beeing raped by Trump as a Teen girl (please read this at your own discretion). She never went to court because she was intimidated.

The declaration:

The New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness

Which animals have the capacity for conscious experience? While much uncertainty remains, some points of wide agreement have emerged.

First, there is strong scientific support for attributions of conscious experience to other mammals and to birds.

Second, the empirical evidence indicates at least a realistic possibility of conscious experience in all vertebrates (including reptiles, amphibians, and fishes) and many invertebrates (including, at minimum, cephalopod mollusks, decapod crustaceans, and insects).

Third, when there is a realistic possibility of conscious experience in an animal, it is irresponsible to ignore that possibility in decisions affecting that animal. We should consider welfare risks and use the evidence to inform our responses to these risks.

I second this, it seems a bit too much on the nose to be real.

Edit: Omg, it's real.

This is a myth and has been debunked.

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/feb/12/car-splatometer-tests-reveal-huge-decline-number-insects

The survey of insects hitting car windscreens in rural Denmark used data collected every summer from 1997 to 2017 and found an 80% decline in abundance. It also found a parallel decline in the number of swallows and martins, birds that live on insects.

The second survey, in the UK county of Kent in 2019, examined splats in a grid placed over car registration plates, known as a “splatometer”. This revealed 50% fewer impacts than in 2004. The research included vintage cars up to 70 years old to see if their less aerodynamic shape meant they killed more bugs, but it found that modern cars actually hit slightly more insects.

This is mostly on point, but it also reproduces the 100 companies 71% line.

100 corporations are responsible for 71% of emissions related to fossil fuel and cement production, not 71% of total global emissions.  

Of the total emissions attributed to fossil fuel producers, companies are responsible for around 12% of the direct emissions; the other 88% comes from the emissions released from consumption of products.

It's unfortunately not true. Just widley quoted.

I am German. Auto correct changing "document" to "Dokument" (the German Word) happens easily on a phone set to German and honestly just didn't jump at me as wrong. After all it's how I am used to read the word.

But I am honestly curious. How does a misspelled word pander to those that are like minded? Does "Dokument" have any meaning in English that I as a not nativ speaker am not aware of?
