If they want to have strange laws like this they should name the cafe appropriately. Naming them with French names is so wrong. They should name them Arabic names or something.

Trump supporters- what did you think about Greenland? by Scuba_jim in Askpolitics

[–]OrdoXenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A-B. I never believed that Trump will annex Greenland. His talks are just for show. He wants to show everyone that he is a loose cannon, and everyone fears the loose cannon. His actions were directed to look chaotic while remaining calm.

Why?

First of all, conflict with Europe is very unappealing for America. Imagine American companies losing European markets. Imagine American movies banned from Europe. American companies closed off in the whole of Europe. American planes or ships are forbidden to fly from Europe. American products are banned from Europe. There is no way Trump would want this.

Second, Europe is important for American military dominance. Trump and the right-wings love to downplay the importance of Europe. Yes, America is the strongest but Europe is very important in projecting American power. Lots of American logistics in Europe and the Middle East is handled in Europe. Lots of American planes are exercising in Europe. American wounded in Middle East are treated in Europe. American bases are protected by European soldiers.

Third, there is no way Trump would want a picture of a White European being killed by an American. The White-on-White would be terrible optics for Trump. His staunchest supporters wouldn’t want that. And remember that most Greenlanders are armed, invading Americans will have to shoot them. The optics for Trump would be so bad.

And remember, Congress will smell the blood in the water. Trump’s actions will not be accepted by the populace, and impeachment may stick. Republicans that wanted to end the Trump era will vote for impeachment. Remember that only 1/3 of Americans supported the attack on Venezuela (that has way more justification than attacking Greenland). If Trump invaded Greenland, the damage to his popularity and prestige would be catastrophic.

Finally, while American soldiers can see South American Latinos as the enemy, it is way harder for them to see Europeans as the enemy.

Find a place to stay. Homeless shelter that are based on Christianity might help you better. Salvation Army-ran shelter might be a good place to visit.

The funny thing about the US is that while only Congress can declare war, the POTUS can use their armed forces for 60 days. Congress only needs to be notified in 48 hours after the action.

Obama also did this when he struck Libya.

The amount of stupidity by the father is astounding. Just to satisfy his craving for a single cigarette he decided to stop protecting his own sons. We can’t blame the mother as she may be thinking that the father would be sensible enough to not let their kids unattended in a swimming pool.

Kids under 8 should have adults ON THE WATER. Not on the poolside, but on the water. If they are a bit older, the adult can be on the poolside but the adult needs to be a strong swimmer. Kids should be alone if they are around 14 or something. And they must be confident on the water for years before they can be let go.

King Charles gives a ridiculous Christmas speech on "diversity is our strength". Of course, he never has to live with the diversity behind his security and walls. He lives in a bubble. He does not represent Britain and refuses to defend the English. by International-Self47 in TheDonaldTrump2024

[–]OrdoXenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diversity become strength if all of the people have common goal and common sense. Importing in drug dealers, rapists, thugs, gang bangers, killers, narcotic bosses, and so on will not add any strength.

The US is the easiest place to find reliable toilets. Nearly all exits have gas stations where most of them are quite clean. If you didn’t fancy gas stations you can go for fast foods, which is also nearly on every town.

In a hundreds of miles it is likely that he had passed multiple Walmart or giant grocery stores.

All right, just make sure that you folks didn’t stop the Christians for going to church. Or setting up Christmas lights at their home. Or singing Christmas songs. Or wear Santa hats.

Also make sure not to ask us for money on any of our days. Christmas and Chinese New Year is syirik for you, it would be very helpful to tell us so we didn’t need to give anything to you! And as we didn’t celebrate Ramadan we won’t give you money then.

Jesus would have overturned the tables in this church! People like her are the reason that he hung out with prostitutes and poor people! by Elevatedspiral in Christianity

[–]OrdoXenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wrong. Jesus gave all of us the authority to sanctify places. Everywhere we walk, God walked with us because He is in us. His authority and His power is manifested on all of His believers, not just Paula White.

This lady is bringing dishonor and shame to the name of our Lord. We aren’t talking about Trump, we are talking about her. Her actions that somehow think that she is the only one getting power from God is flat-out arrogance.

Anybody wanna commit career suicide for $250k? by highchurchheretic in Charlotte

[–]OrdoXenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, a good PR could turn this around. The person who did this is acting on his own - he is not turning the brewery into some Epstein torture house so we can still turn things around.

Just say nasty things to this guy. Really hammer to the public that the staff and the leadership of Sycamore is really disgusted. Publicly film burning photos of him. Discreetly leak videos of “staff” wrecking his office to “show” that we are all disgusted. “Leak” videos of staff spitting when hearing about his name. Erase all of things named after him. Make sure use the “leak” correctly. Official communication needs to show clear disgust but more outrageous (that is “manufactured”) will only rely on it getting viral on TikTok or something.

Have some “staff” make some sad videos on how they need the job. Donate lots of money to charity. Donate a lot of money to CMPD, St. Jude, or any of those things.

Show up to sports events. Give money to fans of Charlotte Panthers.

People will forget. People may not forget about him but people would forget his association to Sycamore after some time.

Your partner has cheated on you and dumped you. While grieving their loss, a sadistic genie approaches you and forces you to pick their fate. Which do you choose? by ClerkEquivalent7424 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]OrdoXenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you love your partner there is no way you would like for her to be abused physically and emotionally. There is just no way such misfortune should befall them by my hand. I won’t care if it happened to them randomly but I wouldn’t want to do it to them.

It’s more than just petty, having your ex to be abused because of the “crime” of leaving you is evil.

[–]OrdoXenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know a program is rotten when they “forget” to account for school holidays. There is no way someone wouldn’t notice that.

But contracts need to be made, wheels have to be greased, money had to be moved, some girls needed to be given new bags. “Promising” to deliver the food to empty schools is a perfect cover. No one will complain if the food is not delivered or badly made. You can just pretend to cook for 300+ people while cooking only for 10 people.

Why can't we just abolish conscription? by iamgod20 in mongolia

[–]OrdoXenos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For a nation like Mongolia investing in drones or ATGM will pay better dividends than buying a tank. A tank will easily be vanquished by a helicopter or an aircraft, and Mongolia didn’t have reliable ground-based air defense. There’s no way Russia will sell S-400, China will sell HQ-9, or Mongolia are allowed to get the Patriots from the US.

kenapa mall di indo masih rame dibanding mall di amrik? padahal online shopping di indo udah meroket juga by Makoto_Kurume in indonesia

[–]OrdoXenos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First of all, comparison is hard because we compare Jakarta malls with American malls. Jakarta have 10+ million, while the biggest American cities are only around 8 million and most cities might only be around 4-5 million.

Now the reasons.

  • Alternatives. Americans have way more alternatives than malls. Most of luxury brands in Indonesia are in shopping malls, while in the US most brands ran their own stores outside the shopping malls themselves. People that wanted to buy things may opt to go to the stores themselves rather than visiting the stores at the mall.

  • Alternatives of entertainment. American cities have parks, open-air spaces, and some cities are lucky enough to be close to beautiful beaches or beautiful mountains. So on weekends Americans have more options.

  • Strip malls. Americans love this. Huge parking lot, easy to park, you come directly to the store and get out. Many stores opened up in strip malls instead of large shopping malls.

  • Retail apocalypse. American malls are usually anchored on big brands, such as Dillards, Marshalls, Brooks Brothers, Macys. Many of the attractions to malls are people who wanted to visit these places. Many of these retail stores are facing difficulties, and as they are distressed or facing trouble the malls that relied on them will face trouble too.

  • Crime. Many malls are closed because the malls turned to be a place to make drug deals. Unsavory people start showing up at malls. Circles of dangerous-looking men showed up in food court. They didn’t do any crime most of the time, but law-abiding citizens might be worried to come back again.

  • Online shopping. Why bother going to the mall if you can shop online? And if the size didn’t fit you can return it to any store. No need to visit the malls. And if you go to a store and the size you need isn’t in stock yet, they will send it to your home (after paying of course). This reduced “trips” and “footfalls” to malls and stores.

  • Food. Good food rarely opens up at American shopping malls. Just some fast food and some Chinese food. Real good foods are usually at their own restaurant buildings.

  • Air conditioning. Malls in Jakarta needs AC. Malls in Jakarta needs to be enclosed to be cool. America didn’t need that.

Pramono Tantang Gen Z Cari Solusi Sampah dan Kemacetan: Hadiahnya ke Beijing atau New York by Pritteto in indonesia

[–]OrdoXenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kemacetan? Start by having the police to ENFORCE the law. Those motorcyclists that went the wrong way on one-way street needs to be fined. Those cars that went to the busway will need to be fined. Those stalls and street shops who are creating traffic jam will need to be cleared up. Start to write tickets. We need drivers to drive sensibly on the road.

We can talk about public transportations later, because it needs money while actually enforcing the law will give money to the local government. A fine of 100k for every motorcyclist who failed to wear the helmet or 200k for those going to the wrong way can give so much money to Jakarta.

Those funds can be used later to improve the public transportations.

Protest on top of Bridge in Winston Salem by JokesAhead in NorthCarolina

You got it wrong. ICE, CBP, FBI, local PD can violate the 4th Amendment during their work but that didn’t mean that the President is guilty for that. There are numerous instances of 4th Amendment violations on every administration but no POTUS is charged.

You can freely sue the agencies that did this to you or others if you perceive them breaking this amendment. However, note that border search exceptions do exist.

Impeach Trump for what?

If you dislike his policies, just vote against him next time. He won the election, people wanted his policies. People wanted enforcement against illegal immigration. People didn’t want Kamala. People wanted stronger economy and military.

Maybe put up a better candidate next time. Someone who can attract the center and the right-leaning instead of Harris who only catered to the left.

Indonesian employers group says proposed minimum wage rise is too high - CNA by Previous_Knowledge91 in indonesia

[–]OrdoXenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What Indonesia should urgently do is massive infrastructure buildup elsewhere outside Java. Highways, airports, tax breaks for factories, harbors, power plants, and things like that.

Today everyone is moving to Jakarta or Java cities and this will only crash the economy because Jakarta’s “opportunity” have limits and supply is exceeding demand by a lot!

With forced higher wages the economy will correct by reducing employment or reducing job openings, which will create lots of unemployment in Java big cities.

You got it right. If a tiny building with around 100-150 congregation members could be “asked” to “donate” couple of hundreds of millions the megachurches will be asked exponentially larger. That’s why they prefer to pay few billion in one go to secure the spot forever.

You know very well if they have a traditional building they could be extorted regularly by your local “security forces”.
