> It’s so sad that they celebrate murdering farmers. Not that I would agree with it, but I could at least understand why they might celebrate a successful raid on a colonial fort or killing Redcoats in a shootout. But this is over two English farmers that were just driving their cart to market. That’s awful.

This is how the Palestinians would flip this back on you. Not that I agree with the above either, but some redditors tend to have a double standard about this when Israel or Palestine pops up.

The point is that the headline makes it sound like some altruistic joint mission with Russians and Americans pulling together in some heroic endeavour.

And this when Russia is in the middle of a ruinous war of aggression in Ukraine that pretty much the rest of the world condemns.

It has the effect of being pro Russian propaganda.

Tell it like it is.

Russia launches a capsule since the second one of theirs in a few months has sprung a leak at the ISS.

And I quote, "According to The Pegasus Foundation, an organization advocating to ban donkey hide products, an estimated 8 to 10 million donkeys are killed and skinned each year to meet demand for ejiao."

Clearly, most of the 8 to 10M donkeys killed are not endangered. There are 40M donkeys in the world.

Just eat the non-endangered kinds, and may be captured some and domesticate them. Problem solved. And yes, it is no big deal.
