This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 89%. (I'm a bot)
> Canada needs a public inquiry into allegations of Chinese election interference, Canada former spymaster says.
> On Dec. 21, 2022, Global News reported that an unredacted 2020 national security document alleged that Beijing used an extensive network of community groups to conceal the flow of funds between Chinese officials and Canadian members of an election interference network, all in an effort to advance its own political agenda in the 2019 federal contest.
> "To be practical about it, we have to admit that Chinese interference efforts in Canada are targeted. They're not targeting every constituency in Canada," he said.

I work in the heritage industry and I’ll always remember the day the government threatened to cut funding to museums and trusts that dared to teach “controversial history” (aka Britain’s role in slavery, colonialism etc etc).

India should chuck the entire E.U. in the trash like the dumpster fire that it is after the history of colonization. The UK backed out of the union and so should India after all it has its independence now and should flex on the rest of Europe instead of cowtowing to their problems.

Reply to comment by Diomedesnuts in Poland has delivered tanks to Ukraine, government announces on war's first anniversary. by Rifletree
Poland supported Germany's invasion of Czechoslovakia and even took some Czech land for themselves after Germany invaded. Stalin offered Poland to allow Soviet troops into Poland in the event Germany invaded, as Hitler's foreign policy was obviously become more and more aggressive. The Poles flat out refused, even though Russia was the only real power that could come to Poland's aid if (and when) Germany invaded. Even Britain and France asked the Poles to allow Soviet troops in because they knew they couldn't do much if Germany invaded.
The Western allies screwed themselves because of their appeasement of Hitler. Stalin viewed the appeasement as the allies aligning with Germany to destroy Russia. Russia wasn't even invited to the Munich Agreement even though giving Hitler Czechoslovakia (Sudetenland) made it easier for Germany to invade Russia.
So after basically be shunned by their supposed "allies" Stalin did the next best thing and signed a non-aggression pact with Germany.

It's an incredible change. They used to be one of the most seclusive communist countries. Very much like North Korea -- they were even aligned with China, which made them even more secluded with respect to the rest of Eastern Europe.

I thought you were referencing a South Park episode. Basically we achieved some technological advancement that allowed us to be in some intergalactic space federation. To test us they had some criminal land on our planet with loads of space cash. When the space cops came we lied including the rest of the world about taking the space cash. So we didn’t get to join the intergalactic space federation. Season 13 ep 6 pinewood derby if you wanted to check it out

Protect yourself too dude.
Seriously.
AKP/Erdogan is as crazy as Russia (if not more so) when it comes to locking up dissidents.
Especially when Dear Leaders' life is literally on the line (the world should be so lucky).
