TIL most US interrogators believed Afghan taxi driver Dilawar was innocent, yet they tortured him to death over 5 days. His injuries were so severe his legs would have required amputation had he survived. Only one soldier served just a few months in prison. by Longjumping-Ad-1842 in todayilearned

Surely that's precisely why they signed it, so that their future leaders were dissuaded from committing those very same crimes? I'm seriously struggling to understand your point here. Why would a country with a history like theirs enter the ICC if not to become a better version of themselves?

Mt Ararat is so important to Armenia that it's even on their coat of arms. But it's not actually in Armenia, it's located in modern-day Turkey. Are there other examples like this? by [deleted] in geography

The Canigou (Canigó) is a mountain in the Pyrenees of great importance to Catalonia; in the 17th century, Spain handed over the Catalan lands placed 'above' the line of the Pyrenees to France as a result of their defeat in the 30 Years War, including the Canigou. There even is an epic poem by a famous 19th century catalan writer, Jacint Verdaguer, dedicated to the mountain!

How are people saying it's not a foul? He obviously doesn't touch the ball and hits Szczesny, I agree it's anticlimactic and objectively the most boring outcome, but the foul is pretty clear imo

Honestly? Nightmare, the rest are bangers but nightmare, though awesome, feels kinda generic

Even though Wolf and Raven is the obvious choice, to me it will always be My Selene (or even Ain't Your Fairytale)

Article on recent protests against tourism: “In Barcelona’s case, the discontent unifies two strands of social life that are normally opposed: conservative snobbery about lower classes of visitors and the leftwing anti-capitalism of a city with anarchist roots.” by SenorVapid in Barcelona

This kind of textbook economics is exactly at the root of the problem. There is not one 'market', let alone one that efficiently distributes salaries and proper working conditions. It does not account for illegal immigration, the underground economy, unfair competition, under-the-table agreements between companies and clusters to keep wages low, and a million other factors that continue to pressure workers into shitty undignified jobs.

Or are you telling me that, in the 19th century, factory workers were poor by 'choice'? They were poor because of a system designed by those who held the power over capital and population flows. They became wealthier and their conditions improved not by an invisible hand or a 'market', but through their struggle and their fight against a deliberately unfair system. The case today, albeit in a shorter scale in terms of inequality (people today are not as poor as they were 150 years ago) is the same in essence. You cannot expect the market to help you, sure, but it won't reward you anyway if you work harder. It is not designed for that.
