Considering it has its roots in the "Lebensreform" in the late 19th century, it's not that surprising that it's part of the culture. Still, American influence hasn't been good to it and it's also the reason why

Ah, that has to have been just part of it then, as the book was released in 2002.

The comment where I mentioned it is also part of the whole tree, so you just need to look above a bit. If you mean a link to the actual law on the Ukrainian government website, it could take a bit. I don't speak Ukrainian. Then again,

Uhm, did you actually read the whole article or did you have different words than I had? The most relevant part is even pretty early in the article. Also, it's a fact that Hebrew is restriced too, just like Russian, Polish etc etc etc.

The difference is that the Ukraine has language and racial laws (as written in another comment) while Russia supports minority groups by providing TV channels and radio programs in their language.

It's based on claims though ("Head of Ukraine's Jewish community claims Russian neo-Nazis fight alongside rebels"). However, it's irrelevant because you don't seem to know what a nazi is. So, two neo-nazi group

"Hitler's Jewish Soldiers: The Untold Story of Nazi Racial Laws and Men of Jewish Descent in the German Military" by Bryan Mark Rigg. Googling, there is also an interesting article here: https://www.tabletmag.com&#

Jews also fought for Hitler during WW II, so I don't exactly see your point. Additionally, considering Ukraine enacted a language law in 2019 and a racial law in 2021 and that specific group is part of the National Guard, it should giv

Information war is a thing. Though, you can find information from people on the ground on Youtube, social media and small websites (mainstream media you can completely forget, there are enough leaks to show that the likes of BBC and Reuters

From what I've heard it's a Buk-M1 with a failing guidance system that was used to intercept a Russian missile attack on military infrastructure. Why it failed is guesswork but missing maintenance/deterioration is rather like

You mean like paying social benefits (pensions etc)? Possibly. After all, Ukraine was supposed to do that according to Minsk II but they violated the agreement in more than enough points. Personally, I see the NATO sending weapons and estab

Depends on which country you are from. There wasn't exactly reporting from it (at best only at the beginning) here which is why she moved there. Additionally, now the general tenor is that "Putin" invaded Ukraine basically wi

I mean, do you deny that the Ukrainian army has been shelling civilians in the separatist regions? A fellow countryman moved there since no one of the press bothered to report over the years and she confirmed it. And even apart from that, i

"West" probably meaning the US which then also wants to include Europe for some reason, despite it making very little sense.

I think it's just broken in some cases for whatever reason. Like 9 months ago I mentioned trying out Tik Tok for some weeks and despite lots of "not interested", likes etc, I got swamped by 99% garbage, including videos I spe

Is that actually a thing though? When I got my own TV, I usually went to bed at ~22:15 because that is when the first evening movie ended. And that was before and after puberty. Eventually, at age 17, I found something I really wanted to wa

Growing up in the countryside, basically no kid was driven to elementary school, except maybe some first graders early on. You either walk, come by bicycle or take a bus. I wouldn't call 8:00 "very early". Elementary school s

Depends on where you lose it. If it's in/at some place where you can buy something, people usually bring it there and you can get it back as soon as you notice. If it's the whole wallet, it's even easier (would be true f

There being no transaction history is good (less data/more privacy). Not sure how it's easy to lose. At least I have never lost my cash. And if you lose your wallet for some reason, you also lose your CCs. There is "often&quo

"Nur Bares ist Wahres"...and it's true. With cash you have full control of the money while with some CC or phone you rely on third parties. Not to mention the privacy and data issues. It's always "funny" when p

In some regions it's (4:15) "Viertel nach vier" while it's also "Viertel fünf" because 4:45 is "Dreiviertel fünf", while in those some regions it's then "Viertel vor fünf". (Personally,

Not a native speaker here. How come it's supposed to be a derogatory term? I mean, you would say "granny" because "grandmother" is too long. So saying "tranny" instead of "transsexual" makes sens

Hm, I don't know. From my experience, communication without emoji of any kind works perfectly fine in a workplace and so far, I don't think I've ever received work-related communication that contained it. After all, it's

They would benefit from what I care about at least. Though, not sure the situation here is the same as in the US. Basically, I ordered seven items off Amazon (shipped by them, non-prime) earlier this month (despite their bloated website wit

Oh, so sorry that we prefer to not be reliant on third parties, having our transaction histories be sold etc. Just like how we were the last country where Firefox had the majority in marketshare because we like(d) our privacy, so too do we

Interestingly enough, it's a rather bad article that goes for framing things in a certain light...like mentioning Prussia's copyright law from 1837 and then going on to say way later: "The market for scientific literature did

Uber isn't forbidden in Germany, it even has a presence here[1]. The difference is that something like unlicensed drivers aren't allowed (which makes sense). You always have the rather good public transportation system as well as

Germany was also the last country that formed, by far. Not that that even matters because copyright laws did exist before that. The difference is that the "Deutsche Bund" had copyright only last for ten years, starting with the pu
