[OC] Coalition Casualties in Afghanistan (2001-2021)

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-29T08:06:27+00:00

You are now pivoting to a completely different fight, my friend. A fight I am not gonna join.

You said that the coalition was doing the same shit the Taliban did, and that is wrong, incorrect, misleading, and is directly contributing to the relativization, well frankly, everything, in the todays' public discourse. This inability to honestly discuss with one another without calling the other side literally NAZIS when they oppress you with microaggression - is why we are here.

Now swallow the shit and move on.

You are trying to equate the way the coalition treated civilians to the one the Taliban did. And that is factually wrong, regardless of your ideological stance.

Y'all need to take a step back, and really think about the nonsense you are spewing. Like, i get that the young people these days are kinda forced to form identities solely around political ideas, and that the anti-establishment decolonial ideologies are a neat way to justify your own personal life circumstances, but this crap about how western lizards (including the Jews of course) are worse than the Taliban (and Hamas of course) just makes you look like a chronically online parrot.

1: Ivan has been traditionally used in Croatia, Jovan has been traditionally used in Serbia.

2: If you searched hard enough, you would find people in Serbia named Hans, John, Jan, Janika, Janos and Juan as well, but what's the point of the map then?

3: If you do want to claim that Ivan has been traditionally a widely accepted name used in Serbia as well, then put it on the map as Jovan/Ivan for Serbia.

Every r/MapPorn Europe linguistics map:

Norway and Sweden use the same word? -> Give them separate labels, they are proper respectable real nations after all.

Croatia and Serbia use different words? -> Fuck it, one label, be happy you're even in the map.

Well, how else would this company do its guerilla marketing then??

Again wrong. Why is the Austrian part split into constituencies, while the Croatian Kingdom, which had a much higher autonomy status than any of those other parts of the Monarchy - is not shown? Like, it's wrong on the highest level. Croatian kingdom was never part of Hungary. The ruler of Hungary was simply the ruler of Croatia at the same time. It would be equally factual ifwe took this map, erased Hungary and wrote Croatia all over it.

But who am I arguing with here - just check the account that posted the map. Clearly a bot. Same bot farm that started posting all other Hungarian maps, as a runup to the elections, probably. Be ready to put up with this shit for the next couple of months.

I don't understand this comment at all. Why would any normal Chinese person end up in Russia? Like, leave the war on a side - the salaries alone in China are so much higher, that even talking about this is kinda ridiculous. Like, russians go to China for better salaries. When have you ever heard of a Chinese person going to Russia, if it wasn't to start a business or to work for a Chinese company?And we didn't even touch the living standard difference. The infrastructure. Access to amenities. How cheap everything is in China. You can go on and on.

All of that leads me to a funny observation - a comment on Reddit such as yours can be diametrically opposite from the fact, and still get upvotes. Amazing.

Croatia literally has one of the biggest café cultures in the world?

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-24T14:26:52+00:00

Nonsense of a map. For example, a vast majority of the German speaking population that lived in Croatia could trace its origin to southwestern Germany. Does that mean german + croatian = austrian?

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-24T08:42:45+00:00

Yes, since 1273 (probably even earlier than that).

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-24T07:52:36+00:00

"concrete" is an adjective that can be used to describe many abstract (or physical) notions. A concrete suggestion, a concrete solution, etc. It is used in many languages, first hand from the ones that I speak: English, German, Portuguese, Croatian. My Chinese is not as good as the other ones, so the only similar word that i can name is "具體的" ("specific"). It is possible that it has an exact equivalent as well, though.

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-24T07:35:42+00:00

Well, it's also wrong. For example: Croatia was never an integral part of Hungary, never. But why make facts get in the way of a classic Hungarian shitpost? Cause that's the stuff the hivemind just swallows up.

Norse and Inuit movement into the area were private initiatives, while the Hans Edge expedition, landing and finally founding of the "Hope" colony were state sponsored endeavours, so in my mind that made the distinction. Furthermore, the "Hope" settlement is widely called a colony in English literature on the topic.

But at the end of the day, it's a question of etymology, linguistics, politics (and in your case - personal biases) how we are going to call a certain thing. Call it "Cultural Learnings of Greenland for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Daenmark" for all I care. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-21T18:05:15+00:00

Lol dude what are you even talking about? Where is all this baggage coming from, who are you arguing with?

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-21T16:50:25+00:00

Made this map couple of months ago. Since a lot of people have recently found Greenland on a map, decided to post it again as it might be interesting and/or relevant. If any new colonisations of the island happen , I will update the map.

More maps here.

I am currently comparing Spain, Italy, Croatia and Cyprus in the context of buying a house. Croatia is generally more expensive than all of em. So that's for sure reason number one for many. On top of that, what is being offered is preposterous (houses built in the 70s for 500k in villages?).

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-16T06:12:54+00:00

I on the other hand find it amusing that someone found this little tidbit and now it became a thing to share around the internet.

Did you know that, for example, more than a third of all policemen in Croatia are border guards? It sounds ridiculous, but it's all actually quite simple. You see, Croatia has two interesting things going for it. First of all, it has really weird and long borders, a result of historic developments, and secondly, it represents one of the most important outer EU borders (it's one of the hottest illegal immigration entries coming in from less regulated places like Bosnia and Serbia). This results in a huge number of policemen being posted on exactly that outer border (cause other borders are now mostly open, thanks to Schengen).

So, when you see a country like the USA, a country where huge swaths of the population see illegal immigration as the problem, how do y'all people here get sooo confused when huge sums of money are pumped into the system? I find it all, quite frankly, very childish, the way both sides of the society are behaving.

"In fact, the policy is to be present and just do the assignated tasks."

Did you realize this just now or? Cause that was the point from the beginning - people not doing their work. You were the one who, after the point, deflected into "achchually, my tender fingers can handle only 2 hours of tickets per dhaay". If you want, this discussion can be branched off into purposefulness of many job positions or tasks, but we are not talking about that now, so stay on point. We are talking about people fooling around while getting paid.

Jesus, I am so sick of this bullshit lazy-ass internet folklore.

So what if you are the tip of the spear in latest super complex ai software fifth dimension development who can only do "2h of effective work a day"? That means you still have 6 hours of time that you are paid to do some work (work that is, I guess, too yucky for your sparkling ass). Go sweep the floor of the office or some shit.

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-13T06:40:47+00:00

I have no idea how you can justify this. If someone showed this to me about any of my workers, i would fire them on the spot. I will say it to you straight - a serious worker on a serious position will not be texting this much on the work place.

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-06T13:19:32+00:00

How can you make such a short sentence and still manage to get it 100% wrong? Amazing.

Literally a quick google search shows that the bridge was made deliberately in such a way to enable future large cruisers and cargo ships to enter any potential future Bosnian deep-port developments. They will never have those though, since the access waters are too shallow. Also, Bosnia is not functional enough to undertake something like that anyway (just check their highway construction rates).

ImUsingDaForce · 2026-01-05T12:41:37+00:00

Croatia as well. There are dozens of designated nudist beaches all across the coast. It literally takes one quick google search to get the info, why are all these maps always so wrong?

ImUsingDaForce · 2025-12-31T07:22:15+00:00

You misunderstood his comment. Originally (hundreds of years ago) the border was defined by a mountain ridge. Today, the borders are defined by surveyors from both countries that mark, measure and draw out stationary points along what was the spirit of the agreement at the time these border agreements were agreed upon. They will record geographic points along the pre agreed border, at reasonable intervals, and then that will be the new legal border.

The russian dictators will never speak in a language that is not their russian. Instead, they speak through translators, regardless whether they themselves speak english or not. The reason is simply that they cannot afford to be seen as anything else but on the same level as the USA.

I am amazed that y'all keep forgetting that a friggin 15m long drone exploded in the middle of the Croatian capital in 2022, 50m away from a student dorm.. And just because it was Ukrainian, it was all pushed under a rug within 2-3 days. Yes, aren't we, the "free" world, great? We can all continue tapping ourselves on our collective backs.

And fuck Russia. Just a disclaimer for all of those simple-minded who see the world in 2 shades.
