I feel like this gets overlooked too often. No single person can cause even thousands of deaths. It's the man himself, his government, the police, the army, the military industry, etc. who are directly causing this. That's probably millions of people. With another 100+ million who just watch and enable the country continue its genocide. All these are also to blame to some degree.

Of course there are Russians who try to stop it, protest, strike or simply leave the hell hole. But sadly this is an incredibly small minority.

Sant, fredag kväll kan väl aldrig kännas illa. Men ert regn kom just till södra Finland så nu blir vi våta här istället :(

Just to clarify in case you missed it: this is daily, not weekly. So almost one tank an hour. Poof.

Agreed, and the process of actually getting things to change can vary a lot depending on which city we're talking about. Why should these content creator know how things work in YOUR city?

A YouTuber and Twitch streamer according to Google, maybe someone who knows better can elaborate

In what sense is Haavisto right-wing? Also, compared to most global leaders, Stubb is not very far right. Luckily all the far right lunatics fell out in the first round.

But yeah, I agree Haavisto would have been the better choice, although both of them are very competent for the role.

Is this an evolution of the famous KURKKUMOPO!?

I don't quite agree with this. It seems like you're focusing on the worst types in each scenario.

Competitive debates aren't (in my opinion) debates at all. They're rhetorical competitions where you need to know how to talk convincingly/manipulatively, but don't necessarily need to know anything about debating.

Political debates come in all shapes and forms, but of course the ones that will be focused on and remembered are there worst examples that seem the most silly.

You're kind of right about internet debates. Especially the "scoring system" can be very biased depending on the community, but if you ignore the scores there can still be valid points to be found in some debates. Of course, being the internet, there will also be overwhelming amounts of spam/trolls that can be hard to ignore.

Conversation is a broader term that includes debates. Debates are conversations, but not all conversations are debates. The issue with the word debate is that it sometimes gets misused (like competitive debate) which makes its meaning a bit unclear. Although all of this is just my opinion, so take it with a huge scoop of salt.

Still doesn't add up. 37% of the US population is 120 million. 1% of the global population is still 80 million.

Are you comparing US household income to global individual income? If that's the case I can see your percentages working, but that comparison doesn't make much sense so I'm still lost.
