Useful to know that red paint counts as "extreme damage to property" and thus terrorism, but this doesn't

You know exactly why the "Free Press" dislikes Anthony Bourdain, and it has nothing to do with food.
“The cult of personality Anthony Bourdain left in his wake is frankly insufferable,” says The FP’s @SnoozyWeiss. “He broke how a generation of men eat.”

One and a half million Kazakhs fought in the Red Army during WW2, 600,000 of them died
Putin has radically reimagined the meaning of this parade. Once a commemoration of victory over fascism in World War II, it is no longer about the past. Today, it stands as a symbol of his vision for the future. Troops from China, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, and other nations — countries with little historical connection to WWII — now march in Moscow together. For Putin, the parade is no longer about remembrance. This is a display of unity among autocratic regimes, bound by rigid hierarchies and a shared defiance of modern democratic values. #Russia
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

The fucking arrogance & proud idiocy of this is quite something. We all know these people are scum but even with that understanding, this is quite surprisingly bad, I think.
If the Houthis really cared about the Palestinians, they would stop.

This Birmingham bin man, & father of 5, is now set to be £8,000 a year worse off because of Birmingham council. The national media wants you to think hard working, family men like this are the problem. People like him are the backbone of the country.

This is a British MP. We only get 650 of these guys folks, and this is the calibre. No wonder people have generally given up on politics!

I see we're getting a Universal Studios theme park and SNL Live UK come to our screens. We are, and I cannot stress this enough, completely cooked.
UK desperately needs a reverse-perestroika moment. We need to de-Americanise the economy. But more importantly we need a cultural revolution. We need to kill the yank inside ourselves- to sever our irrational attachments to ‘Walton Goggins’ & ‘KFC’ & wearing trainers for children

a bunch of posters called things like stalins_bellend69 tbf to them
Who would have thought last July that a Labour government would cut disability benefits, cut overseas aid, cut the civil service, cut the eligibility for the winter fuel allowance, and raise National Insurance on employers?

‘Idpol’ and Gulf states in football with world-leading expert in Anglo-Gulf relations and handsomest man on the British left @davidwearing. A vital discussion of Newcastle’s cup triumph and football as a theatre of the culture war. soundcloud.com/pro-revolutio…

This is heartbreaking. Anyone who foresaw this as a possibility was labelled an ‘Assad apologist’. No, just able to look at recent history. The idea of ‘moderate rebels’, with historic connections to IQ & IS, is so deranged it defies belief. nitter.gq/leoazch/status/1899697…

Genuinely wild. You wonder what thing they’ll be confidently asserting in 2 years time.
In 2022,Von Der Leyen mocked Russia, claiming it was so desperate that it had to scavenge computer chips from dishwashers and that its industry was in tatters. Now,the same Von Der Leyen insists Europe must burn through 800 billion to defeat this supposedly ruined Russia. 😂😂😂

Asides from this it’s also a totally batshit word spaghetti of unrelated things Nazi Germany somehow linking to the former GDR which somehow equates to Vichy which somehow equates to Vladimir Putin?
This take struggles to deal with facts like how young men born in the 1990s-2000s are more likely to vote AfD than average, young women less so, and the AfD also got 18% in West Germany.

The EU is just completely cooked isn’t it. Some mental Estonian woman wants to destroy China and apparently the Portuguese, Greek and Slovenian working classes should pay for it?

These people have properly lost their heads
After that discussion, 2.5% is not enough. We must move to a war-like footing with 5% spending on defence. Scrap Net Zero, scrap triple lock, slash DWP, complete reform of defence procurement, slash taxes and red tape to get immediate growth to fund spending.

genuinely jarring just how much Zelenskyy miscalculated his position. Did be just get so much smoke blown up his ass he forgot he was dealing with the US
Replying to @sensiblehuman96
If you're squeamish about Trump and JD Vance's treatment of Zelensky, wait until you hear about literally the entirety of post-war American foreign policy.
