@Takethe20790618@RealJosephMart@saucyrf@daveatherton Right, which are plenty because it’s genuinely not a sedentary society. The central government exists around major cities and industrial enterprises and that’s it. The tribes have insane autonomy and the practice is only less reported on now because of US withdrawal. Still exists
@Takethe20790618@RealJosephMart@saucyrf@daveatherton No one with a spine is defending him, republicans as a party are doing damage control by not acknowledging the contents of the report and lauding his “leadership” and “commitment to conservative values” and such. That’s not real defense. It’s rather being ignored for now.
@Takethe20790618@RealJosephMart@saucyrf@daveatherton Obviously, the allegations are heinous and he was bound by cultural expectation to step down even after denying the allegations. In Afghanistan it’s a cultural mainstay and despite Taliban pressure, the country is way too decentralized to stop it.
@Takethe20790618@RealJosephMart@saucyrf@daveatherton Well, he resigned following the report and just about no one is defending him. Special election in about a month to replace him. He should be investigated further and charged but there’s insufficient evidence for court proceedings/no victims willing to persecute at the moment.
@madsmclennon @fllingeagle @thedanholo@hunter_hhhh Yeah that's copium now that Georgia is called and PA is 93% reporting. For good or for bad it is simply over
@leftyshteez@royal_bobby24@peachisuu I don’t know if anyone’s mad, all I know is that the person posting their ballot thought it was something, so they posted. I mean, they got twitter brownie points from chronically online leftists while not doing a single thing of real impact, so maybe they did do that at least.
@Settftonesvvi @thetoadwizard Why can’t people just appreciate the beauty of the human form and fine craftsmanship 😭 it’s not inherently pornographic there’s a breeze to accentuate the ripples of the fabric and the shape of the body
@Settftonesvvi @thetoadwizard Well, I’m discussing Rong’s sculpture, which you also seemed to denigrate, not the man’s in the original post. I’ve read into the sculptor because I encountered her same sculpture online a few years back, so I was naturally taken aback by your immediate connoting with the sexual.
@Ultima_Fool@MawganRogerson@NovusOrdoWatch “Supporting one another in charity” essentially means to give grace and assume good intent. Now, this is not quite “tolerance”, and I disagree with the translator—but acting out both translations is much the same. Listening in good faith is healthy, to better connect with others.
@ethan648@grippinthagrain@fatpieceofshit6@Pat157157@njhochman if they dish out suffering then it is their due dessert yes, though the application of justice to someone of that kind should not be an outlet for sadists to legally torture and horrifically harm people and receive gratification from that
