Some types of ammo can get expensive. For example, the Patriot surface-to-air defense system fires missiles that cost 2-4 million Dollars each, while Russia launches some 4k missiles and 2k drones per year at ukrainian cities.

Google complains about Microsoft for monopolistic ambitions. Now that’s my kind of humor.

That’s what I don’t understand about many U.S. lefts. I do understand that the Democrats ain’t perfect and that they have some weird positions. But your elective system (which is kind of screwed from the start anyway) only has two possible outcomes, dems or reps. And the two of them are not equally bad, so why take away votes from the by far not that bad option, strengthening the really bad option?

However, very early in the movie he says “If you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, you become something else entirely” so it seems obvious in hindsight that this applies to Ra’s as well as if applies to Batman.

But that doesn’t mean Henri Ducard became a Ra’s Al Ghul or Ra’s Al Ghul became the League of Shadows. It’s like a religious thing, like christians consider themselves reborn after baptism.

Hell, I always thought Ken Watanabe was Ra’s Al Ghul and the title passed on to Liam Neeson after the former died.

I can see where you’re coming from, I’d expect some quote like “I am Ra’s Al Ghul now” or something.

Again, I can see your interpretation, but I think Ra’s Al Ghul simply being a name is far less a stretch and requires fewer assumptions.

1. He literally says 'we have been around for 1000 years and since Nolanverse is devoid of any fantastical elements, passing the torch is the only possible explanation.

I always thought he meant the League of Shadows, not a single position.

2. Her name is Talia Al Ghul from Doylist perspective but not from Watsonian.

She calls Ra’s Al Ghul her father. It may be an interpretation that Al Ghul is a name, but so is the title interpretation. And imho the name is far less of a stretch.

only real difference is the few times a white character is casted black the movie ends up being bad anyways.

Shawshank Redemption. In the source novel, Morgan Freeman’ character was a white irish guy. The reasons nobody complained were probably that a. there was no Xitter when the movie hit theaters and b. nobody knows it’s an adaptation anyway.

No, I don’t thinking would work since his daughter’s called Thalia Al Ghul, indicating Al Ghul is a family name.

Also,we don’t need to make up apologies for whitewashing.

I don’t. I hoped the person I asked would answer.

It’s actually not Scholz’s SPD here - the Brandenburg SPD and their Candidate intentionally kept quite the distance to the chancellor.

Nicht so schlimm, wie man es hätte befürchten können. Nicht gut, aber eben besser als befürchtet.

Of course the illegal invasion by Russia was aggression, like Iraq and Afghanistan and all wars are aggression. But it was foreseeable and preventable through diplomacy.

You do realize that deplomacy and negotiations were tried before the war, in the beginning of the war and continue ever since, right? It doesn’t work because Putin doesn’t want to actually negotiate. Putin is not interested in a diplomatic resolution. Putin wands to expand his empire and eradicate Ukraine as a people, it’s culture, identity, language, everything. It’s a genocide. Putin is literally Hitler (and as a German, I’m not pulling this comparison lightly).

Ukraine proxy war

Don’t drink paint.

Russia invaded and annexed Donbass and Krim in 2014, then launched a full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Do you want to tell us Russia could not have simply not done this? Do you want to tell us this is anything else than russian aggression?

That’s not an answer to my question.

It isn’t even bad for the domestic population. The domestic population actually needs immigration, because the domestic population is aging and we’re running out of young people (in relation to the older population).

You’re not trying to tell me it’s not a war of russian aggression, are you?

Manufactured conflicts like Syria and Ukraine

Who manufactured these conflicts?

Germany just tries closing its borders with “smart controls” (which basicalle means racial profiling). Every political party except the Left wants to deport “criminal migrants” (“criminal” being a fig leaf here) (and even in the Left there are some who want to deport). German lawmakers are pushing for more and more restrictions, cutting financial support for refugees, leaning on populistic measures, abusing statistics left and right and so on and so forth

This article isn’t about that though. It’s about rising xenophobia, a climate of fear and racism constructed and driven forward by the AfD (the party that’s too far right even for Italy’s post fascists) and how migrants and citizens with migration backgrounds don’t feel safe and welcome anymore.

Es ist das gleiche Bild ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
