    It’s funny because the (far) left vilifies the police and then goes all surprised Pikachu when they turn out to not be manned by far left people.

    Idealism in all honor, but you’re not gonna change the system without being in control of the current power structures.



  • Interesting that there is a fine difference between humanitarian aid and humanitarian assistance. I doubt many journalist are this strict about their wording, but good to know nonetheless.

    Social welfare provides the exact same things (housing, food, medicine) but instead of some disaster zone somewhere it’s for disadvantaged citizens in your own country. Of course, the logistics are massively different, as well as the timeframe during which the services are provided. But it’s still basically the same thing: help other humans with fundamental necessities.

    So I would disagree with your claim that it “isn’t the same thing at all”. It differs in some details, but the central service and fundamental reasoning is the same.

    Yes, because they communicate with natural behavior (I’m blanking on the word here. It’s behavior they were simply born with)

    Language is learned, but you can still “understand” another human if they are angry, crying, or laughing, no matter where they are from.
