  • Basically compared to Armenians every European nation is

    subhuman territory anyway

    by every moral criterion.

    Also if you're German, you're that one of them which not only has 10/10 in being morally subhuman, but also has 0/10 in getting something useful out of that.

    By the way, I also have Jewish ancestry and I absolutely hate it when a German opens their mouth about antisemitism, especially in defense of Israel. Just looked at your post history. That's really not your subject guys.

    while contributing zero to mankind, throughout all of history

    Again a very funny statement from a German.

    Germany is basically the Argentina of Europe. Anything good in it is a remnant of something in the past before it went off the rails.

    EDIT: Oh, I've seen that sentence.

    So keep on being a little bitch about that genocide those other filthy animals did to you, and keep serving your whores to the US like that unfunny cunt Sona.

    It's not like your relatives don't do the latter, so I'll address the former.

    Blood is redeemed with blood, and some of that blood is yours. Remember that.

  • Intel was once a Silicon Valley leader. How did it fall so far?
  • Well, when I was learning about economics being 8 or 9 year old, it seemed for me how it should be.

    A person or a group knowledgeable in some area find a bottleneck, some problem to solve, start a company, it grows, it becomes big. Then the next generation is what they pick for leadership, and picking people is always worse than the evolutionary mechanism of a company finding some bottleneck to be widened being gunshot faster than the rest. Then they pick their replacement. And so on. Eventually it dies, but since technologies are patented, they do not become actual secrets, only commercial secrets, and by the time a company dies the patents expire, so everybody can replace it for the humanity.

    The niche that company discovered thus becomes competitive.

    In our world, if patents would expire as fast as they did initially by design, these big companies would already be dead.

    But they've bent the rules to make patents virtually eternal and thus big zombie companies are strangling the humanity.

    The system wasn't bad, but eventually power changed it.

  • Riiiiiight, an Armenian that blows a gasket at the slightest suggestion that Erdogan might not be the greatest Kalif of all time! What else you got for me, wolf?

    Same user, same level of intelligence. I'll be magnanimous:

    I was addressing your weird opinion that Erdogan made something worse about Turkey, making it a "rogue state".

    In the narratives popular in the West (discourse by Baudrillard) it was a normal state since joining NATO, because that makes it part of the "good guys", "free world" and all that bullshit.

    But in reality it had a few big Greek and Armenian pogroms after joining NATO, used historical monuments as target practice, had military coups as normal order of things, censorship, extrajudicial murders by military, special services, pro-government militias, had "village guards", and all that after Turkey joining NATO.

    As I have already said, any kind of democracy is a new thing for Turkey. And before Erdogan technically Turkish military still could just change the government without violating any law. Also Erdogan started with quite a bit of social liberalization and still hasn't undone that. He surely plays sultan, but it appears to be the zeitgeist. And he's going to die and things are going to change.

    So it being a "rogue state" is conditioned not by it becoming worse (it's been plainly fascist for all of its history in NATO), but by it becoming somehow less useful for the West. Which makes the "rogue state" concept meaningless, it's one thing to become one because of breaking rules, it's another to become one just because of bad alliances.

    Just like Georgia right now is getting all kinds of threats because of their construction of the port in Anaklia. Since it's a project involving China. While it's still a flawed democracy. And Azerbaijan is not getting any threats while being a genocidal sultanate. And Azerbaijan is closer to Russia than Georgia is, so that's not a justification.

  • Ukraine accuses Russian forces of killing, dismembering prisoner-of-war
  • Worldnews has nothing to do with this. The indignation in the article is funny in comparison with the emotions I've encountered from Ukrainians in TG and elsewhere about Azeri war crimes. Which is why I feel like laughing at it. Not at the crime itself.

    I also don't get what you are trying to say, that most people here don't have the context to understand? That is their fault. I've described it briefly, they may politely ask if that weren't clear, just like they'd ask their professors in college if they don't understand something.

    It's the more ignorant party at fault usually.

  • The Maduro government still shows no signs of surrendering power in Venezuela
  • There are more examples of kings that tried to reduce the power of the nobility by appealing to the common people, distribute wealth and build infrastructure.

    That's how absolutism came to be, strengthening of royal power as opposed to that of nobles, making the royal army stronger without vassal troops, and that infrastructure being built too strengthened central power.

  • Ukraine accuses Russian forces of killing, dismembering prisoner-of-war
  • So in your opinion Azerbaijan is

    a petulant kid that are lashing out because they had their feelings hurt

    or it was too long a text for you to grasp?

    I'm saying that the usual Ukrainian advice to Armenians is to stop angering Azerbaijan.

    Anyway, I think I'm again looking to be offended.

    Just ... this amount of indignation about one guy chopped up. Nothing close to what a few countries which are not under sanctions openly do. It's as if they really thought their lives are worth more.
