I have a friend who can smell cockroaches no joke. We always take her restaurant suggestions very seriously.
This article is old and only about one incident which was recently settled in arbitration for an undisclosed sum of money and dismal of the case with prejudice. Buzzfeed started doing a deeper dive into Shangela but went bankrupt before it was finished, then Rolling Stone picked it up.
Basically Shangela mixes lots of alcohol and sex with strangers. Something that use to be normal but today is no longer ethical.
Shangela looks fantastic and I think people forget she's an older queen who probably has some older ideas about consent and alcohol.
Do you ban them from museums? Textbooks? Documentaries? No because they are in an appropriate context. I would never wear or display a swastika and I feel disgusted to see one displayed by anyone with pride. Context and motive matter...
I don't believe in these sweeping absolutes. Context and motive are important parts of any equation of what's "acceptable".
I get what you mean, I'm helping to add nuance to the discussion. Also a bunch of white people coming in and telling Angolans what symbols they can and can't use to represent their triumph over colonialism and apartheid isn't a great look either.
Yes I'm aware of the history of Angola.
You asked
Are there any countries that use the symbol that are actually nice places to live with good governments?
Angola has made a conscious decision to stick to this symbol as if transitions to a liberal democracy and stable economy. There were some efforts to change the flag recently because as you said it's often associated with totalitarian regimes. But those efforts failed because to Angolans it symbolizes the Angolan triumph over the colonial oppression of Portugal and resistance to apartheid South African invasion.
It could change in the future, Angola is still moving towards "good government" and "nice place to live" as you said. But for now it remains their national flag.

Just like his income and assests, when filling out bank loan applications they are huge. When paying taxes they don't exist!

Look no further than your siblings. Nobody is closer to you in both genetics nor background, yet the differences in perspective and values can be huge. In my family incidents from 20+ years ago are hotly contested even though we were all there nobody can agree on who took what part or what the motives and consequences were.
Don't let them off that easy. They are not victims of some KGB style program or espionage trickery. They did this to themselves. They chose this knowing full well what they were doing.
They are willing allies of Russia.

"Have you tried applying on LinkedIn? Messaging recruiters or hiring managers on LinkedIn?"
"Oh no don't use LinkedIn, everyone ignores those because of bots, apply directly"
"Put keywords from the job listing in your resume so the algorithm will rank you hire"
"Oh no don't use words from the listing in your resume or you'll be flagged as a bot"
"Hire a headhunter to apply to many positions for you"
"Avoid headhunters because when they spam your resume, you'll get flagged as a bot"
"Complete a tedious and time consuming project for the company and post it on your personal site so they see you're not a bot already qualified"
"Oh they didn't even open the link to look at it? Well do one for the next company and the next and the next..."
Looking for a white collar job today is basically an arms race with the net result recruiters spend the bulk of their time weeding out bots, and applicants spend the bulk of their time trying to not look like bots. It's ridiculous and I kind of wish places just accepted in person applications again.
My point is that ad had reach because our corporate overlords wanted it to. It wasn't some organic grassroots movement, it was part of a billionaire agenda. Wage theft is something they don't want to have reach and behold, it doesn't.
