The Islamic Shock posted:The stance I took in high school on the leadup to the Iraq War, namely that maybe we shouldn't go in hot in a country we seem to be the only ones finding WMDs in, was very unpopular. I assure you nobody there learned a drat thing. The stance I took on the lead up the Afghanistan war was that maybe we shouldn't invade a country that has the nickname "Graveyard of Empires".

Pants Donkey posted:If you read articles about the EVs in recent cold weather, it’s mostly Americans being new to the technology and not taking steps to prepare for the weather. Other, colder countries have higher adoption rates for EVs and aren’t haven’t problems like this. Kinda wild reading this paragraph knowing the trouble we have had in Norway, famously a cold country, with our electrical busses.

SithDrummer posted:I think it's pretty clearly because SCOTUS going 7-2 conservative in the next four years or Trump placing another 200 chuds in the Judiciary is going to lock in the new reproductive rights rollback far more than four more years of Biden (or virtually any other non-Republican) would. Biden could and should make it a law that women should have the right to abortion. Women shouldn't depend on the whims of the supreme court. But he won't do that and women in the US won't have a right to decide over their own body regardless if Trump or Biden is president.

Oooh, this loving cartoon. I work in the norwegian equivalent of pre-school and a couple of points: Free pre-school is a loving excellent idea and is something Norway is trying out now in parts of the country. Pre-school is not just about glitter and glue (although it is that too), it's about laying the foundation for a good childhood. I work with language, social skills and motor skills. I even work on fundamental democratic skill as kids in pre-school has a right to be heard and influence. I know that McCoy won't like this but I also work on diversity by making sure that everyone, regardless of gender, religion or ethnicity, is acknowledge for who they are. Like i have a bunch of stuff that I am bound by law to teach to kids in pre-school and folks like McCoy who thinks that pre-school is a box you put kids while you work piss me of. Anyway, have a cartoon who has become somewhat controversial in my country:

Phlegmish posted:The one thing I'll give him is that part of it is correlation and not causation, as in parents from certain segments of society are much more likely to send their children to preschool, and that's one of the biggest reasons that it's associated with positive outcomes. Any study that investigates its effects would have to control for that. 93,4% percent of all norwegian kids in the ages of 1-5 goes to preschool. You don't have to give McCoy poo poo.

Toblerone is halal, even though they never contained any pork or gelatin. They basically had an imam over to say "yup, no pigs here." I'm guessing that's what they did in the sex shop too.

The woman is the leader of the norwegian political party Rødt (Red). Rødt is a socialist party that has gone from a fringe party to getting members voted into parliament. But their youth organization may hinder their success as it is a much more radical origanization, they elected an openly communist leader, they won't condemn the 7th october attack by Hamas and they are against shipping weapons to Ukraine.
