The tweet has it backwards. The fascists are throwing a tantrum because they tried to make it happen and it was ignored.

yea yea

It's what svoboda used to be called before it was svoboda, so even though the name isn't in use any more it's still active and has a handful of elected mayors in western ukraine.

Someone shot and killed a former chairman of the Ukrainian parliament in Lviv. The target, Andriy Parubiy, has been in a handful of different right wing parties including the social-nationalist party, so good riddance to him.

Nothing publicly know about the attacker yet beside that he was riding a bike.

This is the most normal thing I've read about Richard Nixon. Just typical goofy 10 year old behaviour.

I don't like it. Weird to read thinking about the monster he became catgirl-disgust

Extremely inefficient use of land for animal fodder is such a huge problem. It's especially frustrating in Norway because a lot of the non-arable land is great for grazing and could contribute to self-sufficiency without occupying the very scarce arable land, but it's more profitable for farmers to use industrial animal food.

The European Union continues to make no diplomatic efforts to find an end to the war, as chief diplomat Kaja Kallas wrote today that the “longer Russia wages war, the tougher our (sanctions) response.”

How are they still threatening someone with sanctions after already doing 17 rounds of it? i-cant Everthing that can damage the Russian war economy has already been done at this point, but I guess they're gonna be real scared when they read about that 18th sanction package.

Reading this just made me sad knowing this guy will spend the rest of his life in a cell

Why is the world like this?

That is such a gross way to depict the female security guard. The way she clings onto him is way too intimate.

The article is interesting, but it's obvious they picked the most alarmist, misleading headline possible, where they make it sound like this is likely to explode into a hyper deadly pandemic at any moment.

Both WHO and CDC considers the public health risk from avian flu low, but not non-existent. It's obviously important that these organizations monitor and stay vigilant about diseases like this, but there isn't any reason to believe we're looking at another pandemic or major public health crisis.

Here is the WHO's most recent report, which I really recommend going through if you get anxious from headlines like this: https://www.who.int/publications/m/item/updated-joint-fao-who-woah-public-health-assessment-of-recent-influenza-a(h5)-virus-events-in-animals-and-people_apr2025

There is absolutely no way Aftenposten will change to a more NATO-critical position. It's THE conservative newspaper, it would be the last major newspaper in the country to make a switch like that.

wtf

I thought surely this title is an exaggeration but it's literally that bad. Anything that questions the status quo about anything, or just exists outside the majority, should be treated as a threat to national security.

Also, extremely disingenous that the state calls this guy, who is both appointed and then employed by the Home Office, an independent reviewer. They're incetivised to chose someone with whatever values and priorities matches their own, which makes it extremely concerning this is the kind of guy they went with.
