Bhutan would have had the best flag if someone colored it in.

I'm not the one who took down the Catherine the Great statue in Odessa.

 

Are they living too far away? Too poor to go there? Bots? Laziness? Are they not interested in military parades despite liking to denounce protesters?

What's the big reason?

Capitalism: If you have two cows, your landlord decides they're tenants late on rent,
then your landlord sells your cow, buys a bull.
Then your landlords shoots your other cow and tells you it was attacking him and acted only on self defense.
As punishment, he gets to eat your cow.
You protest and then he shoots you.

I’ve always wanted to start some sort of organization, like many have done, where i donate certain necessities and money to other countries—especially underdeveloped ones, possibly using tax money?

Depends on where exactly you send the money to.
Is it going to that country's government?
Directly to the people?
How will you send the money to these people if they have no bank accounts?
How much of the sending money are you willing to pay to payment processors?

But so far it sounds like you're a Social Democrat.

Star Control II & Secret of Mana

They both set my expectations for how much fun a game can be.

Secret of Mana as a template for what kind of world I want to live in (minus the monsters and whatnot)
and Star Control II as a template for how to write a fun adventure.

Seconding this.

Same here.
Manjaro is good enough for me, even though I hear one should use Endeavour or whatever.

I have no horse in this race :)

The fascist armed forces do and they have them trample on protesters.

I'm going to repeat what @plyth said. "Don't use the Zimbardo prison experiment".
Zimbardo was as manipulative as the psychologists from the Robbers Cave experiment,
with the only difference being that the former was only done once, while in the latter,
the subjects figured out that they were being manipulated and turned against the psychologists.

Because of this, the conclusions Zimbardo drew himself are very different from when you conclude that
Zimbardo was behind the whole ordeal pulling the strings.
One only needed to stand up against one person, not a crowd.

Title buzzwords OFTEN IN CAPS.

  • The real reason
  • You won't believe
  • Bizarre
  • Dramatic
  • Insane
  • Never seen before
  • Shouldn't exist
  • The truth behind
  • Panicking
  • You won't beleive what

And what's also extremely annoying is whenever questions are being asked in the title, when it's them who should have the expertise..

Content creator title: "Did the president of Zimbabwe just imposed a ban on bananas from Guatamala?"
Me: "Don't ask me. You're supposed to know that."
