[OFF TOPIC] Politics Thread

@Whoever moderates this Forum: If you don't want to prevent worstmen from constantly spamming this thread with his propaganda (making this thread unreadable and preventing people from discussing any other topic), could you maybe at least prevent him from spamming 2 threads (this thread and the "General Chat" thread) at the same time with the same propaganda?

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Not trying to take one side or another by posting this…

 

I just think it’s well argued and provides “food for thought” on the matter.

I've never seen an army that enjoys killint cibilians and go live proudly like the so called IDF , i never saw police or army or whatever film humiliating people proudly and hitting them in all their bodies whether innocents or not and I'm sure that vast majority that is being filmed humilated blindfolded and bound are innocent , otherwise they would have resisted them and injured or kill some of them , I mean everyone is fighting for something and every soldier sees him or herself as a hero. But I never found soldiers enjoying killing civilians , even they are proud of killing babies and I saw it in many streams like this , what kind of things do they teach them in this country , how these people are monsters like this , despite of th3 fact of living in a modern country with all things provided with all super powers defending it and sending weapons to it , from where did all this kind of hatred ، jealousy and evilness came from and don't tell me it started from Oct.7 , no they are humiliating Palestenians since 1948 , they tried to humilate our soldiers in 67 war , there are many brutal stories of how they dealt with war prisoners

    • Big shock as  beat the all-conquering  Men's Team Sprint team in the Heats!
    • sure! in every Italian bedroom you normally have every kind of table, chairs, furniture, tv screen  to me, this really look an unfinished room, you normally don't see such a sad place even when you buy a new house 
    • Canoe Sprint There is a now a cap of 5 athletes per gender in the kayak events (down from 6 in 2024). The World Championships has been replaced by the Olympic Qualification Rankings.   K2 lost 2 boat quotas while K4 has gained 1 boat quota. Quota distribution is quite complicated as it usually is for canoe sprint. They also force nations to compete in a minimum number of events based on the number of athletes qualified; 2 and 3 athletes per boat class must compete in 2 events, 4 must compete in all 3 events and 5 must compete in all 3 events and have two entries in the K1 event.
    • Wrestling will have a completely new format, I do not like the changes. ranking isn't really a good idea in this sport, this will force wrestlers to compete in so many events to collect points. which is not good for their health. specially with the current UWW ranking points distribution system which is plain stupid   they are also gifting 18 quotas to very weak countries by that last qualification event. but I understand their point of view. can't wait to see lots of Russian wrestlers compete for weak countries for that 1 available quota.
    • Canoe Slalom Quotas from men's/women's K1 have been moved to men's/women's KX1. K1 will now have 14 quotas while KX1 will have 10 quotas. C1 remains at 17 quotas. Athletes may participate in other events up to a maximum of 2 athletes per NOC.   The World Championship qualifier has been dropped in favour of the Olympic Qualification Rankings (7 K1, 10 C1, 3 KX1), afterwards you have the Continental Qualifiers (1 per boat) and then a new Global Qualifier (2 per boat).   There were a few changes regarding ways to ensure an athlete can only obtain 1 quota. The biggest being at each stage the boat priority is K1 > KX1 > C1 for the rankings and KX1 > K1 > C1 for the continental/global qualifiers. This basically means if the same athlete qualifiers in multiple boats then the quota will be given to the kayak over canoe.    
    • I'll post significant changes periodically. I'll start with the recently added/updated documents.   Archery The addition of mixed compound (12M & 12W) forced a reduction on the recurve side. The mixed compound quotas are distributed as follows   Host - 1 World Championships - 3 Continental Games - 5 World Ranking List - 2 Final Qualifier - 1   To compensate the team events will now only have 8 nations. 2 quotas were removed from the World Ranking List and 2 were removed from the Final Qualifier.   Individual recurve and mixed recurve distribution is the same
