I browse Reddit only for one sub, a country-specific one that is reasonably niche. Right when the API migration happened, there seemed to be a very visible migration of Facebook/Instagram people migrating over to Reddit. Posts asking where to find Instagram/Facebook functionality came in daily, and the overall quality of both comments and posts degraded a lot, suddenly posts had a ton of comments with one word and a ton of emojis.

only seven of the top 20 most prominent figures in election coverage have been women

That stat only makes sense if compared with the ratio of women vs men in politics. It's either legitimate, or it's like someone saying "100% of the coverage in the US presidential election goes to male candidates". I'm not saying it's as it should be, it's just maybe the problem is one level deeper, that there aren't enough women in politics, not that they don't get covered.

That said, just based on experience with other nations' politics (I don't know enough about the UK), it looks like progressives elect whoever based on policy, and it may be a man or a woman, but conservatives in general like their strong men, so in aggregate there are just more men.

My point is, maybe it just goes back to "let's fix politics". And all that said, more coverage may get more women elected, but on the other hand, maybe it all should be more about policy, lest we get more Thatchers.

To be honest, it's not even the "they came for you" bit, they are just coming for themselves now. I mean, if the orange idiot succeeds in dismantling NATO and imposing sanctions on US trade, China will def be the new leading superpower.

NATO is what props the dollar up. They are trying to undo the change in foreign relations the US made in WWII, and they will def get back to the pre-WWII US as a result.

You should see the lines go up though!

If I learned anything of authoritarian countries claiming to be communist, they would never manufacture a whole new line of weapons without extensive testing, and if it turned out to be shit, they would totally have the self-reflection not to keep issuing it but to fix it and retry with a new variant. Totally.

They are there so all your homies can watch the sick trickshots you pull off at the same time.

But those Tigers don't carry people within them, so it's not fastroping, they are flying with a bunch of dudes attached to the thing, FRIES style. Though I wonder if a Tiger can even lift that, that would explain why you need to go down.

So, no, not fastroping, it's screaming and plummeting to your death attached to an Eurocopter. There are worse ways to go I suppose.

I wonder if we're going to see the return of machine gunner ball turrets with this new era. Are there any B-17s we could pass over to Ukraine still airworthy?

It's spelled bullpup, fellow degenerate.

Like the energy though.

Why AAA? Come on Sega, you can get it to AAAA, have people pay for time like back in the arcade days! Game starts, you get "Insert coin" and a microtransaction!

Dream big!

Or a sinophobe or a russophobe, or a bad sport depending on which genocide you deny.

It's a fucked up state the world is in when all great powers have their own genocide which they deny.

Calling them the Waffen-IDF would imply that they are indeed fighting a war and not just kicking down and committing genocide. Allgemeine-IDF fits better.
