Also, Sanchez is rather pro-Ukraine, isn't he?

He toes the EU line in public, but Spain has one of the lowest military budgets as a % of GDP, and his government has pushed back against increases.

Like if you aren't a catholic why does the pope have any special spiritual weight?

Boeing paying racist bot farms to go around claiming Indians are too subhuman to properly maintain their totaly not faulty engines.

From Wikipedia, Air India's last flight loss was 40 years ago, in 1985 (to a terrorist attack). On the other hand, Air India was sold by the Indian government to a private company in 2022, so yeah.

Reminder that Luigi Mangione, the handsome young man most unfairly accused of murder, is a Catholic. He is also white, Italian and vaguely paternalistic. Finally, he has been compared to Jesus and various saints, and is seen as a champion of the sick and the downtrodden.

And yes, they build houses with wood in a fire-prone area. Quite the bold strategy.
