You'd think so, wouldn't you? In practice I've had parcels from Germany arrive a week before those which were ordered from Swedish companies on the same day. It even happened once with a shipment from China which arrived in a

Everybody in Sweden is ~10.150.000 people. They all have their own ideas about many things, including whether Amazon should be allowed to set up shop here. I thing they should be allowed, that does not mean I want them to take over the mark

Of course it would, the way these terms are being made up and expanded is self-defeating. From hispanic to latino to latinx, from homosexual to gay and lesbian to lesbian and gay to (too many words, let's use an acronym) LGB to LGBT to

Abusing the word 'offensive' by applying it to expressions you happen to disagree with is a significant part of the problem. While you might not agree with the comparison to Kristallnacht that does not mean he caused you to be
