One has tried to destroy democracy and the other will just give up the democracy for the first one to destroy and won't fight for it.
To be clear, the best thing to do is to vote for a democrat in the election, but it would be much better if said democrat isn't Biden
Adding to what all the others said, majority of those who cross the border on foot are asylum seekers, and even if they don't have documents, they are still in the country legally until the court makes a decision on their asylum claim.
I thought about it and... yes it is racist
Not 1000 protesters. 1000 DETAINED protesters. And during the same day the protests happened all over the country. I may have not been entirely clear in my comment, but you could've at least checked the Wikipedia.
Since the start of the war until 6 March [2022] nearly 13,000 have been detained.
And it's nearly impossible to calculate how many actially participated and escaped before getting detained. And that was before the mobilization, that was when only the professional military was involved. After the mobilization the protests reignited.
And what exactly do you mean by "Russians aren't passively resisting"?
What do you mean "Finally"? The protests in Russia started on 24th of February 2022. Over 1000 protesters were detained just in Moscow that day alone. And the protests continued after that.
The problem is, these protests achieved nothing, they only resulted in fines (which undoubtedly went to funding the war), protesters being beaten, detained and some even got a criminal charge. So the protests died down because continuing them only fueled the regime more. Some people shifted to solitary picketing, some started doing online activism, some started sabotaging the railways and burning down enlistment centers, some left the country altogether and some, undoubtedly, just gave up.
Uhhh, yes. It was 3am when I wrote this, so my brain probably farted hard
Adding to all the reasons already listed, Russia isn't striving. For example, right now there is a number of towns and cities experiencing outages in central heating (with houses designed around central heating so basically no other option to heat their appartments) while the weather dips to -20°C (around -4°F). All because the centralized boiler facilities weren't properly maintained due to the lack of money (or, to be more precise, due to money being diverted towards the war).
There are other signs, like plains malfunctioning and flights getting delayed because some component broke and cannot be replaced due to sanctions, and they happen more and more often. Also the less noticeable stuff like prices of common goods increasing by a factor of two in the last couple of years while salaries barely increased at all.
So yeah, Russia is keeping itself afloat, but it isn't thriving at all

In the right pic: a pretty sus photo under the phone cover (did she beat her abusive father with the hammer until he got into a coma and get happier as a result?). On both pics: a framed picture referencing Untitled Goose Game
Vocaloids were invented in 2000, with commercial release in 2004. Human singers aren't extinct yet.
It may be possible in the future for a synthetic voice to sound fully human with a full range of emotions. But I believe that human actors and voice actors will still be used because 1) it's easier to explain what to do to a human professional, 2) unions exist and they will push back against it.
Acting is an art. What world is it where robots do art while humans do the tedious manual labor?
This is bi erasure and I won't stand by it
Well, he has Elon Musk in his display name, that definitely is 100% synonymous with bullshit
Not if they get defunded
