It’s because the USA floods countries with cheap goods all the time and then cries foul when someone else does it. It’s pure hypocrisy.

At some point decades from now maybe? I still think nuclear and fusion research are important for human civilization, I just think it’s stupid to waste money on building power plants using nuclear technology in its current state.

Ammonia believe it or not.

The reason we don’t build nuclear power plants anymore (including small modular), is because they’re insanely expensive, produce only a small amount of power compared to you can produce with renewables, and always come with cost overruns. Nuclear power is the techsploitation of of tbe 60’s and 70’s. Most governments look at the economics now and realize they can do solar plus storage for a fraction of the immediate and long term cost.

Why would that be progress?

I donate through opencollective to lemmy.ml, hope that’s also supporting development if even indirectly to server costs.

There were several goals stated. It’s clear to anyone with a modicum of intelligence that denazification was meant for domestic politics. The Minsk accords were never implemented and Merkel bragged about it being a small tactic to arm the Ukrainians. I suppose we’ll see who ends up writing the history books to see which of us is right.

I don’t think there’s any good reason for two countries to go to war. It’s weird you would say wanting land is a justification. Russia’s stated reason was and is for a security buffer against NATO. It’s not justified but I don’t understand why you’re pretending it’s not the reason.

You can be dismissive of the reality of people outside of your bubble, however this is the pragmatic reality in the world. I do enjoy people taking the time to write comments that show their worldview is being shattered.

Oh I’m fairly certain that’s what happened.

I don’t need to refute your entire argument, this isn’t a Swedish university where peer criticism is required.

The ICJ says it’s a lot of things but it’s only been used as a colonial court against countries that aren’t aligned with western interests. I don’t defend the war criminals that have been prosecuted by the ICJ but how does the ICJ recognize the definition of a national court? For example, if an African country has an indigenous form and interpretation of justice to ensure societal cohesion, who are the western Europeans to say that their form of justice is incorrect and they need to be tried at the “international court”.

The court was only created to try Nazis because they didn’t think that country would treat their heros (at the time) fairly. It’s now used to try leaders the west doesn’t like. There’s lots of people in Iraq, Britain that want to see Tony Blair at the ICJ but the ICJ and the UK would use a rule such as the one you’ve mentioned to say it doesn’t apply, but won’t hesitate to take an Iraqi to the court.

You seem to think the laws you espouse as ideals are not inherently written to protect those already in exploitative power.

Oh no I meant it more in the Rick and Morty shooting the insect soldiers in the first episode, “Rick you said they weren’t alive” “They’re bureaucrats Morty, I don’t respect them.” You’re just repeating lame talking points. But it’s OK you deserve the brain dead candidate you support.

So it’s better when they try to hide it?

Isn’t that happening with Putin now?

ICC is for states that can’t prosecute within their country.

This is false.

You’re old and shouldn’t be in the position you’re in right now. Sucks.

😭🤡

This is a sad reality for you guys.

Well the majority of you are bots and shills so I’m just trying to keep Lemmy going with real political opinions.
