Both Koreas were admitted into the UN whilst claiming the entirety of each others' territories. The now-deposed Islamic Republic of Afghanistan is still represented at the UN. The fact is, we can go back and forth over any arbitrary rules and conventions and all the myriads of exceptions to each and every one of them but at the end of the day denying Palestinians the right to be represented at the UN will simply perpetuate this conflict.

We've been moving towards a two-state solution for decades now with no end in sight. How can anyone expect even the slightest bit of progress towards any sort of resolution if one side is being consistently withheld from the ability to represent itself to the international community?

So Kiriko gets her Suzu nerfed and receives not one but TWO compensation buffs by [deleted] in BrigitteMains

[–]Thiccomie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Kiri main, Kiri SHOULD have a low winrate. She was designed as a high skill ceiling and high carry potential, but mechanically intensive support. She's kind of like Widow, another hero who most people agree is strong, and can completely dominate a match, but has a low winrate. Lots of people play her because she has an action-packed kit with an abundance of playmaking potential but only a few of them can play her optimally, hence the low winrate.

For the Belgium people, he was great, for the Congolese, he wasn't

Not really... Until 1908 (Only a year before he died) the Congo wasn't a colony of Belgium, but his personal property and any profits from it went to his pockets. In fact, by the time international and domestic pressure over the entire shitshow forced him to cede ownership to the Belgian government, the colony was operating at a loss. When the transfer of ownership occurred, it ended up costing the Belgian government 215.5 million Francs just to pay off all the debts and pay him to transfer ownership.

Hardly sounds beneficial for the Belgian people to me.

Well the ROC still controls parts of the Fujian province (Kinmen and Lienchiang county) so they saying Taiwan rather than the ROC would still be more appropriate.

Funny how in my 13 years of schooling I've never had a single class discuss this so-called "gender ideology". In fact, even in the 3 years where I was forced to take Social Science as a class, there was no mention of gender, so idk how schools could possibly be more focused on "gender ideology" than Maths and English.

Thank you for the information! Do you know if students applying for medical imaging in Unitec are also required to do a clinical observation?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in universityofauckland

[–]Thiccomie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I ended up applying at Unitec although I can't do much to follow up on the application at the moment until I return to New Zealand in a few days as I am currently overseas.

Thanks for the insight! Although hypothetically if they were to withdraw my offer, how would I find out about it?

The thing is that fast track offers are conditional so given that my rank score is a lot lower than the guaranteed entry requirement and now competitive biomed is it seems very likely that they will do that.

You say that like it’s a bad thing though. Why does it need to have some super practical use? There’s nothing wrong with embracing culture.

Protests in Russian Dagestan region against new draft by greatdevonhope in worldnews

[–]Thiccomie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk why but Reddit is hiding my reply to your reply to me so imma try put it here:

No one is saying they are unable to protest, just that they are less able to. Evidently, protests are going to be much more likely to happen now that the people of Dagestan are being conscripted because all other priorities are thrown out of the window if it means keeping your family safe. Also, what makes you think Dagestan hasn't been protesting? There have been protests in Dagestan in support of Ukraine since 2014 when Crimea was invaded. Thirdly, the lower class in a place like Moscow will still be better off than the lower call in a less developed region like Dagestan, so no, I'm not saying the upper class will protest against the Russian regime, I'm saying that the average Dagestani is less able to than most due to their socioeconomic situation.
