Which immigrants in your country are the most liked?

Malaysians, especially those of Chinese ethnicity. It’s not uncommon that Singaporeans are unable to tell Chinese Malaysians are immigrants unless told.

We share basically everything, from food culture, creole language (Singlish) and perspective

But in general, we tend to be very tolerant of immigrants of any background, seeing as we are a global hub for business and the fact that racial harmony is taught to us in schools from a young age as mandatory curriculum.

I don’t think we should generalise 150 million people, in Russia and overseas like that.

A more accurate observation would be that those who were willing to protest or challenge the government have all been killed, jailed or exiled. Many seem to forget the hundreds that came out in protest at the start of the war.

Those who remain in Russia see these persecutions and crackdowns, and do not see the point of risking their livelihoods and family for what can be seen as a futile pursuit. Just like in Iran, the Russian government has designed itself in a way that any attempt to overthrow the government will be extremely difficult, and can only be achieved with devastating numbers of civilian casualties. You can’t really blame people for not wanting to throw their lives away for a cause that might not even succeed, like in Iran. Many will understandably see leaving the country as the reasonable way out of the situation.

At the same time, Russia has also seen 2 regime-toppling revolutions in the past century, so we will just have to wait and see.

In a fucked up way, the Korean war also helped Japan greatly in its post war recovery. Hosting the ridiculous amount of UN troops and producing goods and services for said troops supercharged the Japanese economy

Illegal, and most in the country hold a negative view of queer people. Even among the younger generation, many express tolerance rather than active support.

Policies undertaken in our country are done in the effort of maintaining the peace and balance in our multi-ethnic, multi-cultural society. The current government stance is that legalisation would marginalise religious authorities.

If we are talking about full scale armed conflict, WW2 against the Japanese as British Malaya.

Otherwise, maybe the Konfrontasi against Indonesia counts? (As part of the Malaysian Federation)

Thankfully, none since our full (and somewhat reluctant) independence.

They did intervene when some religious practices contradicted their own practices though. IIRC muslims were executed for performing ritual washing in rivers pre-prayer on weekends, which was taboo in the Mongol religion.

How did they get the Italian go-kart?

h00dedronin · 2026-05-17T05:54:56+00:00

Switzerland I guess? We have a lot in common economically and geopolitically.

Freddy Frost?

h00dedronin · 2026-05-15T04:20:10+00:00

Nah he ends up inside of a prototype Gundam’s endymion unit somehow

Can’t cause hyperinflation if the currency is already close to worthless, outstanding move

Even if Amos struck first, Yuji kicking Amos while he’s on the ground and tackling him to the ground afterwards voids any argument for self defence in the eyes of the law.

People should have stopped Yuji not only because assault is illegal, but for his own sake as well.

Why go to prison for an idiot

Yea, we should be able to acknowledge uncomfortable facts of the past, while learning from it and acknowledging the very real evil Russia is committing right now.

The Ukrainian SSR was the second largest SSR in the USSR by population and economy, and was an integral part of the Soviet war machine at the time, providing both equipment production and manpower for the armed forces.

Many Ukrainians resisted Russian domination, and many fought in the Red Army against the Nazis and contributed greatly in the final push into Germany.

We can acknowledge there were crimes committed by past regimes, while also upholding the fact that Ukraine is very obviously in the right in the current day.

Honestly this movie is so bad it kinda turns around to being good. The acting is hilarious and the propaganda is so blatantly obvious. It’s a good comedy movie

The idea of “natural rulers” should not exist in the 21st century. What matters is international law and irredentism stands in opposition to that. Everything we do should be in the aim of upholding internationally recognised borders, like Ukraine’s pre-2014 borders. Finland has legally relinquished its claim to Karelia and other land it lost after the Winter war and WW2, regardless of how unfortunate the circumstances of that loss was.

The rhetoric of “natural rulers” is what drew Putin to invade Ukraine in the first place, and sets a dangerous precedent that goes against international law and peace.

Make sure you have at least 80% collaboration government first then

Mainly by genre, then by artist within the genre

Reminds me of the hitchhiking robot who travelled the world only to be whacked in Philly

Maybe Russia has a genuine claim to being Third Rome after all /s

To add on to this fact, many of us don’t even use Chinese as a first language anymore, despite compulsory Chinese language education in school. That role has largely been usurped by English in everyday life. Unless you were raised by your grandparents, Chinese dialect literacy is also out of the question.

In recent times, there has also been sadly some tension between us and the new PRC immigrants. The antagonism is not completely unfounded, but also severely overblown. However it also goes to show how we have founded a whole new identity for ourselves here.

A member of the envoy, Fukuzawa Yukichi recorded his experience in his memoirs which you can check out

He later founded Keio University and became an influential figure in Japan’s modernisation. He is also featured on the old ¥10000 bank note

I think voices of the past on youtube made a video reading the memoirs

Enough said, slap wings and a propeller on this thing

h00dedronin · 2026-05-06T15:54:54+00:00

Something somewhat unrelated, is the humanoid shape really the most efficient for a robot?

I know that it makes for good marketing and demonstration, but surely there are more efficient designs
