  • This article aside, it scares me how fast misinformation spreads on tiktok. They’d probably believe anything as long as you put subway surfers and music in the background.

    It makes sense, since much of the userbase is just kids; but it’s very dangerous for them.

    PS, i don’t support banning tiktok anywhere. Despite it being dangerous as i said, clearly that is not what concerns the governments.



  • Kabul is as far away from the Middle East as Berlin or Moscow is.

    Berlin/Moscow are 1,500 kilometers farther than Kabul from Riyadh as an example. And Kabul is a little less farther than Istanbul, so that point is null.

    Turkey or Iran went around talking about the “greater European area” and included everything from Vladivostok through Berlin to Anchorage just because the prevailing culture has christian roots

    Turkey IS european? I see no relation to anchorage, though. And that’s a far fetch. Afghanistan actually has historic relations with us. They were under the ummayads (not good example of “good” relations but cmon, when has anybody ever had good relations in the ME?) It’s not just Islam. I even understand Dari and Pashto much more than i do turkish. (i do understand hebrew vaguely, as an example)

    Also, this guy is also “the Taliban”. They have their own internal struggles, and I think demilitarizing will soften them up a bit. That said, I also don’t expect a female Afghan prime minister in the next century.

    I didn’t deny that at all. The main argument was about women’s rights and he is clearly better than most in Afghanistan. I’m not sure what you expect here.

    I didn’t even say you are wrong when you said Afghanistan isn’t in the middle east. Truth be told, the ME is a very vague term. Most people i know think libya is middle eastern while (less) think Iran for example is not. I consider them middle eastern enough and you don’t, that’s fine.





  • You need to actually move to that country and pay from there, so no :/

    If you have moved to a new country, or are living abroad for an extended period of time, you can update your Steam country setting when you complete your first purchase using a payment method from that country. If your location differs from your current Steam account store country setting you’ll have an option to change your store region while you view your cart or as you complete your purchase.
