Yes but 50.000 × 2 = 100.000, large numbers get confusing without dots

For the people on the streets it doesn’t change anything, but it’s weird how little blame Erdogan is getting here.

No matter how much I dislike Musk, I don’t think he’s giving that much choice. Erdogan is a dictator who has the power to block X altogether. A real free speech advocate would not succcumb to the pressure of a repressive government, but the article does imply Musk is not the initiator of these bans: “Musk himself said that “the choice is have Twitter throttled in its entirety or limit access to some tweets.” He said X would publicly post the Turkish government’s requests.”

Not saying we shouldn’t put Tesla’s on fire tho.

What if the plot isn’t about locking up the opposition leader, but about luring out his most vocal supporters? It is much easier to keep anonymous civilians in jail, as opposed to the leader of a movement. I feel like just locking up Imoglu is just too stupid a move to make.

O right, there is a massive amount of Kazachstan in between them :x

I’m thinking if there would come an end to the war in Ukraine soon, other countries bordering Russia better have their shit together.

Quick poll: if your country would become inhabitable because of climate change, where’d you prefer to go?

I want the EU to support the protesters, but I can also see this validating Vucics rhetoric of there being a ‘hostile takeover’ organised by foreign powers.

I know you’re being ironic because that is for sure the real solution, but we’re in a too dire a situation to just focus on fossil fuels.

That’d be true if both parties would actually want what they say they want, not if either party is untrustworthy and has a record of breaking agreements.
