Literally the first 4 Paragraphs:

asked for clemency in the drug-related accusations involving the dual citizens.

Beijing’s embassy in Ottawa said the executions were due to drug crimes and noted that China does not recognize dual citizenship.

“We strongly condemn the executions,” Joly told reporters in Ottawa. “I asked personally for leniency ... They were all dual citizens.”

 

Please don't just read the Title, the reportage is more nuanced. The Title isn't to be taken suggestive but as a actual question the Reportage is trying to answer.

Yeah we don't really like those "corpo crap" holidays as well (if "corpo crap" means "classical commercial tourist destinations"). We prefer to go somewhere smaller away from all the stress and pickpockets. Rent a Hotelroom or small vacation-house and explore the place in our own pace.

But again, we're pretty risk-averse. Rome was already stressful for us because we were always afraid of getting pickpocketed. I couldn't imagine going to a country that isn't politically stable. I just couldn't relax.

So yeah, we don't like that "corpo crap" either, but we also are pretty risk-averse. That's why we usually vacate in regions that are stable and pretty rich (similar Level to Switzerland) and not too touristy. We're a difficult clientele, I know ;PP

The climate of the Carribeans with the (relative) safety of the US. That's all there is to it.

Also we don't like it when you're in these Hotels for tourists from rich countries where your meal costs more than the staff earns. It just feels wrong. And inside you have this completely artificial experience that shatters as soon as you leave the hotel area. It's just not relaxing and morally wrong.

Also the Reason why we're staying in Europe next year despite loving the carribean climate.

City? Probably yes. Country? Probably no.

It really depends on the Size of the "cage" and what it has to "offer" to me. (how entertained I am, how well-off I am)

And in Switzerland we have to learn quebeccan French. And so the circle closes.

(we train it at the end when we train understanding non-standard pronounciations)

I was about to cry out how this is illegal and they should behave themselves when I realized that ICE also acted illegally.

(pseudo-)Fascists don't care about rules, laws or constitutions. You have to hit them where they actually care. Keep on going, my guys.

Everyone is blaming politicians as if it wasn't the fucking voters that decided to elect a pseudo-fascist into power.

The Democrats wanted to stop the pseudo-fascist. You elected them. It's not their fault, you elected, now own it. Stand to your choice and don't try others for your terrible choice.

I am a foreigner and I won't anymore. Used to go to Florida during autumn vacation. Now we'll just go to Italy or Spain. No Jetlag and the Flights are cheaper as well

Accurate. Because mine won't turn on anymore after sleeping.

I expect the parents to speak german.

But I suspect you already knew that and just wanted to be the pigeon that shits all over the chessboard.

  1. If you think respecting women has anything to do with race, maybe yoi're the racist one
  2. By calling everything you don't like "racism", you weaken the term. The next time I see you call someone a "racist" I will think they're actually a feminist like me. If ebough people do this enough times, the term "racism" will lose all its meaning and its bad chonotation
