... so in Canada a stranger can name your kids? Or, you know, maybe the parents?

Parents have all kinds of rights simply because they are the parents and not just because of general rights like freedom of expression. Obviously. If you disagree I'll happily choose the name of your next kid. Because, you know, parents have no rights besides those everyone has anyways.

I get that the article is trying to make a point for children's rights, I fully support that, but the choice for a headline is really, really bad. If you care about the matter you should not defend that headline because it makes the "pro child rights" side look silly. As if the only way for children to have rights was denying the existence of rights of parents. That does not help anyone.

Just keep in mind that everything could turn around again just as easily. You can't imagine it now just like you could not imagine losing it all before. But it's realistic as long as you don't give up. A job comes through tomorrow, you find a great partner the day after and all is good.

Interestingly, the commentary on Article 85 of the Third Geneva Convention includes “the wearing of civilian clothing by members of the armed forces for purposes of disguise” as an example of a war crim

Bonus points because guess where I read that?

It seems like some things just don't change.

There’s no such thing as ‘parents’ rights’

Parents have a right to raise their children in accordance with their own values

Great start!

Yes yes the reason I can not afford this $100k vehicle is the pesky recent Inflation obviously why are you asking? 🥲

Honestly toogoodtogo is turning into a total scam and cash grab. You used to actually be able to get semi fresh stuff for cheaper. Now you just get old food for regular prices.

Exactly. Especially picture 3! He looks like the cool chill dude everyone would like to hang out with.

Of course it's businessinsider. If you make more than $200,000 and still complain screw you.

German here. It's weird, isn't it? Israel did not exist when Hitler had the power and millions of Jews were killed. On the other hand, a Russian Jew would have been a prime target for the Nazis. Strange that the German government still feels like it has to be more supportive of the state Israel than of Jews themselves.

Yeah tbh I went full contrarian with that comment don't take it too seriously 😅 apologies for being so confrontational. Kudos for working on your issues!

It's astonishing what kind of annoying asocial behavior people sometimes show while being absolutely unaware! We are all caught in our own stories sometimes and don't always have good awareness of our sourrounding. The way you describe the situation it sounds like yes, they should be aware that they are loud, but it's still very likely that they just aren't! We've all been there!
