    So the ‘Board of Peace’ consists of the USA + 4 countries whose citizens aren’t allowed entry into the USA.

    So is this a way for Russia to be on the board by proxy and profit from the continued (Western for about a century, but now I guess mixed?) colonization of Gaza or are these countries just following their own policies with no benefit to Russia?

      “Lead a country” does not mean “win free and fair elections”

      For Belarus, Lukashenko is the only President it ever had and super Trumpy-authoritarian. USSR broke up, he took Belarus. Since 2000 it’s basically been part of Russia (see Union State )

      Kazakhstan is basically the same, except there were like 2 Presidents before the current one (Tokayev). Again, all Trumpy-authoritarian, just lording over a small economy & military instead of the world’s largest.

      This is literally the breakdown of the world order.

      For the love of God, Europe/Canada/Australia/Japan get a spine and CUT USA OUT!

      For the love of country, will the fucking Congress IMPEACH THIS ASSHAT BEFORE HE COMPLETELY WASTES OUR INHERITANCE?!?!?

      Probably because the $1b buy in had a personal $100m cash back program.

    This is Bush’s Coalition of the Willing all over again but stupider.

    Post lacks web accessibility and web connectivity. 😞

    Images of text break much that text alternatives do not. Losses due to image of text lacking alternative such as link:

    • usability
      • we can’t quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
      • text search is unavailable
      • the system can’t
        • reflow text to varied screen sizes
        • vary presentation (size, contrast)
        • vary modality (audio, braille)
    • accessibility
      • lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
      • some users can’t read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
      • users can’t adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
      • systems can’t read the text to them or send it to braille devices
    • web connectivity
      • we have to do failure-prone bullshit to find the original source
      • we can’t explore wider context of the original message
    • authenticity: we don’t know the image hasn’t been tampered
    • searchability: the “text” isn’t indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
    • fault tolerance: no text fallback if
      • image breaks
      • image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.

    Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.

    There was a typo by trump, it’s not Board, it’s Bored. Because he is an angry fat rapist and he is bored with peace. Join the Bored Of Peace (cult).
