Out of all the great suggestions ITT, I think I like this one the best. But I would be the kidnapped wife in this situation, so I don’t get to pick the music.
Thank you so much, that’s plenty for me to explore!
Got any good psychedelic rock recs for someone mostly unfamiliar with the genre?
151·3 months agoYou’re thinking of Snowden. Assange was at an Ecuadorian embassy in London. Two very different cases.
This is a statement from his wife from the Munich Security Conference:
"Thank you to the conference for giving me the opportunity to speak. I’m sure you have seen the terrible news. I kept thinking, should I come here or go be with my children. And it occurred to me that if Alexei was in my shoes, he would be standing on this stage.
I don’t know whether to believe the terrible news we received from Russian government sources because for many years – and you all know this – we cannot believe Putin and his government; they are always lying.
But if it is true… I want Putin and his friends and his government to know that they will bear the full brunt of responsibility for what they did to our country, my family, and my husband. And that day will come very soon.
I want to call on the world community, everyone in this room, people all over the world to come together and defeat this evil, this reign of terror. Putin must be held personally responsible for the horrors he did to my country, our country, in the recent years. Thank you."
No one begged to be ruled, let’s not be dramatic here.
Lmao, what an edgy take. Have you ever been to a gulag? Cause that’s where you end up when you try to fight Putin.
Don’t libertarians believe in abolishing public institutions like public schools? That’s encroaching on my children’s liberty to educate themselves affordably. Or without a public fire department it’s kind of hard to have the liberty to not die in a house fire.
Libertarianism is a joke.
Same, 13 years redditor here. And since I came to Lemmy in June, I posted over 1k posts because I love this platform and want it to grow. Fuck reddit.
Do you think it matters to him whether he can or not? This man will not leave his position of power until his dying breath.
My condolences. I’m an atheist myself, and yet I needed that closure. My heart goes out to everyone hurting right now.
Exactly. It’s horrifying to think about. And thank you.
Yes. In no way am I comparing my situation to what the Palestinians are going through, but I was unable to visit my brother’s memorial service or grave, and it messed with my head for 5 years. I cannot imagine what it’s like knowing your loved ones are dumped somewhere in a mass grave you can never find.
🤣
There is a sequel, I’m not kidding.
This is very accurate, actually.
