They're playing tic-tac-toe and losing even though there is a ~~full~~ fool-proof strategy to never lose at it.
Putin's favorite modern Russian Political Philosopher has written about Russia extending from Vladivostok to Lisbon and this has been repeated by various Russia politicians.
No doubt there will be some parts of Europe that would not be worth it for Russia even if they could invade them.
The thing protecting the rest of Europe from Putin's ambitions is Russia's military incompetence, Ukranian military competence, invetiveness and even their lives, and the superiority of European military hardware versus Russian hardware and the latter is severelly hindered by under investment and low levels of production.
I'm sorry but you're way overextrapolating from a sample of 1.
What the guy did was wrong (quite literally the crime of Assault). At the same time, to go all the way from that to conclude this shows a systemic problem such as "erosion of basic human rights specifically of the female nature" is you filling-in the blanks (which is is almost all of the space in "systemic erosion of female human rights" when all you have is "1 case of mild assault of a young female by a coach") with your own pre-conceptions.
Maybe there is an "erosion of basic human rights specifically of the female nature" (above all in the US), but this one case of one guy and one girl in a country of 340 million people by itself is nowhere statistically significant enough to support a theory about a society-wide problem.
Not even disputing that ultimatelly your expectation might end up proven (hope it's not, but Fascists will Fascist and any kind of equal rights are one of their dislikes), just disputing that this case by itself and in the absence of frequent news of such cases is in any way enough to jump to that conclusion.
He had punishment options other than Assault: for example he could have kicked her out to the showers, kicked her out of the team, possibly even all the way to getting her kicked out of the school.
You know, normal tools for coaches and teachers in highschools to deal with serious pupil misbehaviour.
This ain't the 1920s and physical punishment isn't acceptable in schools anymore.
Merely firing him is far too soft: he should be facing a criminal charge for Assault.
"Reducing a major tax for US tech companies while cutting disability benefits and public sector jobs" sound a lot more like ultra-submissive boot-liking or just plain selling off to foreign fatcast that anything anywhere as mild as "appeasing".
By European political standards, New Labour isn't Left, isn't Center-Left, it even isn't Center-Right: it's Hard-Right, specifically Neoliberal Hard-Right.
Works best if you're with enough like minded individuals that you can all form a testudo.
(The irony of this meme is that what made the Roman military superior wasn't as much the equipment as the group work: the meme uses a photo of somebody posing as a, judging by the uniform, member of a very specifically group highly trained in cooperative tactics - not even auxilia but actually a legionaire - to illustrate extreme individualism, hence the irony).
Tribalism in general is a pretty bad idea, IMHO - if you're going around with an us vs them mindset and with double standards for the words and actions of those from the us group versus everybody else, you're not being ethical or moral, just a hypocrite and/or useful idiot.
That said, even amongst tribalists there are different ways of relating to others in the us and even other groups, depending on whether one has a protective/cooperative mindset backing their wanting to belong in a group (roughly "we're better together") or an extractive mindset (roughly "together we can force others to do what we want") - it's roughly the difference between a neighbourhood sports association and a criminal gang.
(Further, you can have the first kind of drive to be in a group, without being tribalist about it).
When what defines the group is the nation one was born in, those with the former mindset tend to be patriots and those with the latter nationalists.
The only thing related to Rules-Based Order being dropped is the theatre of it - there was never a Rules Based Order for the US.
All it takes is to look at the completely different reaction to the Russian Invasion of Ukraine and the Israeli Occupation of Gaza from the Democratic Party - any "rules-based" thinking would yield a negative reaction for both, not a completely different one for "adversary invading white nation" and "ally mass murdering brown neighbors".
Strip out the theatrics and the only real rules are "Might makes right" and "Non-whites are unimportant" even for self-proclaimed "anti-racist" liberals - look at their choices and actions, not what they say.
Would you trust HP to make any kind of consumer hardware which is supposed to run networked and has their own OS variant?
One would expect it would at the very least come pre-enshittified, possibly with some sort of subscription service to enable certain hardware features.
This ain't the pre-Carly Fiorina HP.
Learn your lesson and stop implicitly trusting US Authorities! (and licking American ass).
I didn't know that.
Thanks!
