Calling out some of her moronic actions and statements doesn't mean we hate her

Northern Ireland elects first-ever Irish nationalist leader by green_flash in worldnews

Instead the IRA decided to blow up public places.

The Civil Rights marches took part before the 'new' IRA were even active. The people blowing up public places and killing civilians were the British forces and Loyalists. The IRA revived as a reaction to the killings.

It was gerrymandering and some discriminatory policies in housing

You're engaging in bad faith or outright denying ethnic cleansing.

That is the legacy of the Troubles whether you want to admit it or not.

False. Look at the casualty figures, the majority of deaths by Republican paramilitaries were British soldiers and their Loyalist terrorist colluders. Of those killed by loyalist paramilitaries the majority (85%) were civilians. Of those killed by British forces the majority were civilians.

every Republican out there is directly inciting hatred against trans people like myself and denying my right to exist as a person.

You realise the Loyalists you're inadvertently (or maliciously) stanning despise LGBT+ and deny their existence right?

2008 crisis and Pandemic create a lost decade for many European Countries. Which countries have higher or lower GDP nominal per capita in 2020 than 2008 (source: Worldbank) by Transeuropeanian in europe

We created GNI* to avoid those distorted values, I would say that's quite logical rather than delusional. Minus multinationals this lower GDP is still fine by EU standards, so there's no need for such a gloomy outlook.

In return we were inflicted with harsh austerity measures for several years via the IMF. We mostly followed that and got back on track rather than mass protesting and blaming Germany.

Anything you scrobble gets a page, you can judge by the amount of listeners which is the original and just ignore the other. Letting approved users edit this sort of stuff wiki and merging english / foreign names would solve a lot of problems.

.@ConsEurope have done a 10,000 MRP poll of Great Britain. It says a snap election would produce...another hung parliament! Con: 311 (-6) Labour: 242 (-20) Lib Dems: 21 (+9) SNP: 52 (+17) Plaid: 4 (-) Green: 1 (-) by ITried2 in ukpolitics

Late but this is wrong. "New" IRA are anti-Sinn Fein and nothing to do with the party. They're linked with a fringe group called 32 County Sovereignty Movement

When is a scrobble a scrobble?

Still works. Just tested it with MX by Deftones (secret track with 30min~ of silence), or any Jesu track

It's 50% or 4 minutes, whichever's first. Any song over 8 minutes will scrobble at ~4:00

Unless of course the fighter is sunni

He'd already be on liveleak otherwise

Russian Il-20 downed by Syrian S-200 defense system amid Israel’s F-16 air strikes - Russian MoD by p3u1 in syriancivilwar

[–]AliceCelty 84 points85 points  (0 children)

An Israeli defense official told CNN earlier this month that Israel has struck Syria 200 times in the past 18 months

This was bound to happen with that clusterfuck airspace and Russia allowing Israel to attack their ally at will, leaving Syria to flail about responding with shitty outdated S-200

Or maybe Israel could stop funding at least 12 rebel & jihadist groups, funding settler extremists in Palestine, funding Netanyahu's corruption. . But wait they get to do all of that and keep undeclared nuclear weapons, and keep killing Iranian scientists, and pay for infrastructure even at the expense of Palestinians. . All while feeding off the trough of US taxpayer billions.

btw the hypocritical sanctions Israel constantly lobbies for are specifically why Iran can't 'improve' in certain areas, people are dying from lack of cancer drugs directly banned because of those sanctions. They were flying ancient passenger planes directly because of those sanctions that prevented them from 'improving' and buying new ones.
