I would rather give them a higher amount of higher-cost and more accurate weapons. I know why the US wouldn't, and why Ukraine accepts this. It's their choice in the end.

I don't think we particularly need to celebrate this though.

Almost every historical culture has had at least 3 gender roles, third gender usually being 'effeminate male'

two clearly gay women

Or perhaps, to phrase it like a historian - roommates accidentally buried together

“In the past, it was not uncommon for an archaeologist to find (remains) and say, ‘OK, this individual has a sword and a shield. Therefore, he’s a man.’ Of course, deeply mistaken, because it assumes that in the past gender roles were the way we conceive them today,” García Sanjuán said.

Just to put it out there, but no serious archeologist has believed this for a while.

Consider the two clearly gay women burried together in an Old Norse tomb, with their cannabis seeds and Swastika-engraved Buddha statue. The idea that male dominance and disarming of women is universal is not something anyone can believe after making a serious study of history.

Just consider the Albanian women who took up male identities to become warriors. Note that I'm still referring to them here as women since arguably these historical practices are less about trans identity and more about social positions.

Just as a mod note, since this is about spreading environment harms, it seems to fit with "News that is American but has an international facet " to my eyes. I don't see a reason to move this to usnews exclusively.

Yeah, I love mine too. A great idea for any country really.

Not really a solid representation of either materialism, Judaism, or Rastafarianism TBH.

Same for a horse not in bondage.

It can break you, you know if it wants to stop.

Sounds pretty authoritarian if you ask me

India is also increasingly authoritarian - the state there has been abusing its powers to silence criticism

So what this probably means in practice is that this power is assured to be abused to target activists and civil disobedience.

As is tradition, whenever a repression institution is created, it'll be used almost exclusively on the left with a few token Nazis thrown in if they get a little too terroristic for the current tastes of the powers that be.

It's okay with the tube, but I enjoy the balloons way more. If you're using a portable one, the tube should give you plenty of high quality vape.

And yeah I love mine, they're much cheaper and each one I've one has lasted be years of very regular use.
