Can someone explain how powerful a party can be in Germany with a plurality but without a majority?

With the World Cup a year away…

I use base. Super straightforward and works perfectly with the rest of my set up. I also use Mullvad VPN (when I need one) and Leta (when I just need a simple search and not for images). Rarely use the browser.

This. Tbh if Biden rolled out this program, I’d probably say it was distasteful, but fine as it’s voluntary. At least it allows individuals to make choices for themselves.

That said, ICE is already kidnapping individuals at their citizenship interview appointments. I hope no one tries it. It’ll probably end up a Trojan Horse.

Laws and policies are different. The Trump administration takes much more extremist views towards laws on the books making their internal policies much worse (in most cases).

Admirable but there are a couple things to consider. Take fashion for example. Yes, H&M and Zara are European owned but (I’m assuming) near zero of their production is done in Europe, and instead in poor/developing countries. In my opinion, it sort of defeats the point. As an American, I’d love to support European brands that keep their production local.

Rewatching 1983 from Poland and the timing is perfect.

Do you know how Graphene helps to protect privacy in case someone takes it to make a copy (ie TSA)? I’m an American living outside the US and I don’t have anything to hide (while at the same time respecting my own right to free speech and privacy) but it freaked me out when I learned morning that US immigration can make a copy of your personal phone if you don’t allow them to view your social media accounts. I’m interested in moving over from iOS to Graphene this year.

Seems like too little too late. There are other, more established privacy-oriented platforms in more privacy-respecting countries.

It was always Pelosi calling the shots (for better or worse). Schumer was always there as a fundraiser.

As an American... don't cave. Boycott US products even if your countries give in. Otherwise we'll never learn our lesson.

Even Fox viewers can't hide from their credit card balance. At least I hope that's the case.
