Whataboutism. Other examples of stealing territory / starting wars can also be bad.

It is supporting a side in a war who didn't choose to be at war. Insofar as that meets the criteria of "supporting war", then yes it's "supporting war" (a country's defence). I see that as a wholly good th

Is that not a massive oversimplification? And is it bad/wrong that a country's leadership can be persuaded by its allies? If they were to enter peace talks based on the premise of ceding territory, would that not strengthen Russia

Assuming this isn't trolling/baiting: Ukraine was invaded by its neighbour. Russia started a war. Would you deem tweets that encourage donations toward Ukraine's military defence to be "promoting war"? How about twe

Given the murder of David Amess, I can see why MPs are a little twitchy over people who are potentially out of a given area (though not constituency) attending Perhaps involving the police was heavy-handed and there could have been another

Not sure whether their 'remote' attribute is the biggest concern if they're liable to behave in that way. "Hire the right people" might be the best advice; remote or otherwise.

The landing page seems to rely heavily on: - Users’ familiarity with Coda as a reference point for its increased quality - Statements about the hard work that’s gone into it I say this as a huge Panic fan. It just felt ‘off’ to me, like the

You don't even need to mention this stuff, and if you're not an employee I think the chances of being compelled to divulge it are low. Especially if you're freelancing. Secondly, if you are an employee, I think you can develo

I wonder whether there’s a point where photographic evidence can’t reasonably be used in court etc because of this? I’m aware that Photoshop has been around for an age.

As others have said: SO content is ripped-off (poorly) and mirrored. The page games Google's algorithm and shows up as a 'legit' result. Probably more complex than simple keyword stuffing, which isn't supposed to work th

Obviously your mileage may vary (etc etc), but for me, it's all about removing carbs. It's the difference between water fasting being (honestly) easy .vs. A herculean feat that I couldn't manage.

Anecdata: The only times I've got dizzy when '24h water fasting' are when I've been eating normal/high amounts of carbs in my diet around the fasts. I've been doing a few days/week of 24h water fasts again

I'm not sure I agree. In the UK, the lower middle class are (to generalise) materially well-off; they own their own homes, they have a couple of cars, they have large televisions, one partner does not have to work, etc. And through pur

You’re right. It was a bad, rushed example on my part. I was effectively trying to say “Imagine a scenario where the wrongdoing was basically certain”, for the purposes of focusing on the ‘backing up friends with a public statement’ part of

I’d like to think I could but it’s largely context and “acknowledgement + repentance dependent” on the part of the ‘accused’ (if they did do the bad thing). That is, I am not going to defend somebody who won’t even be honest and open about

This is a good and much more balanced/nuanced outlook. However (in my hypothetical scenario which was meant to challenge the utility of blanket statements of support), a message of support does effectively act as a counterweight to an
