I wonder if there is a correlation between encouraging to not participate in electoral process, and being left out of the outcome of it

There often is. Leftists encourage people to not participate in a capitalist system because most of the major parties in capitalist countries, even ones that claim to be diametrically opposed to each other, are very often near-identical in practice, and simply voting in such a system without a strong socialist component is never, ever, ever enough to bring about meaningful change in a sensible time span.

Electoralism isn’t a bad word in leftwing circles at all. Countries where left-leaning parties have a reasonable chance of success see leftists absolutely flocking to the polls to help.

It’s embedded in the comment…

I live here. It’s true.

The 50% (actually 51%) figure is cited in a UN report as well.

The first one (which is one of the most recent ones) is likening the other replies to the kind of genocidal, demented comments Zionists make about Palestinians

This comment is like a bell curve for fascism. Starts out okay, takes a hard right into ecofascism in the middle, then straightens out again at the end.

What the hell man.

Tbf the newer mainline Hiluxes have also turned into bloated monstrosities, so much so that Toyota developed an entirely separate Hilux “Champ” model to serve as a light workhorse truck

Really hoping some insurance CEO gets Falcon punched

They’re not native to India (these are African cheetahs, not Asiatic cheetahs, which are also not native to India but might theoretically fare better).

The climate is wrong – India is a lot wetter than their native African savanna, with a prolonged heavy monsoon season they’re not used to. There are already cases of cheetahs developing infections from the near-constant moisture and humidity during the monsoons.

The environment is wrong – Indian grasslands bear only a superficial resemblance to the savanna, but there are a lot more trees and underbrush, which is far from ideal for a predator that evolved to hunt with linear speed, especially one as fragile as a cheetah.

There are also a LOT more apex predators (tigers, leopards, wolves, dholes) in the area they’ve been introduced to, so there’s a lot more competition for the same prey base. Cheetahs have a high enough failure rate as is in their home range, it gets significantly worse when they’re forced to compete with a higher density of predators they’re unfamiliar with.

And none of this considers the human impact – India has a very high human and livestock population density on the fringes of protected forest areas. If a cheetah happens to wander outside the protected area and tries to hunt, there’s a very good chance people will kill it or seriously injure it to protect their livestock…or hit it with a car or a truck or something.

No one’s forcing you hold court on things you know nothing about either, but here you are, doing it anyway.

Hey so, you know this isn’t Reddit, right? You seem super keen on collecting those pretty orange arrows and I’m sorry to tell you that orange arrows are downvotes, not upvotes. It doesn’t work like that around these parts.

Top speed on this thing is 25kph (at least in the UK).

You gotta admit this is a damn sight better than gigantic conventional pickup trucks though

Wait really? I thought Amsterdam had that hard rubber cover thing over the tram tracks

That’s a goddamned shame. European tram systems have figured out how to deal with that for years now, I don’t understand why the US refuses to do it

That’s also what you’d see in any Indian city when the road isn’t dug up like that

yeah, what could be worse than the guy who authorized 563 drone strikes that killed nearly 4000 people, including American kids. Hmm.

Off the top of my head, he’s very pro-NYPD (which I guess is the easiest way to get the cops to vote for him) and also he straight up said he’d have Zionists in his administration and not worry about what their support for Zionism means in practical terms, so. Yeah.

Me too, but if his recent overtures are any sign of things to come he’s absolutely going to be Obama 2.0

The traffic-choked bit is the approach to the flyover (the one that was opened in 2005). The uncongested lanes next to it are an extended ramp section of the flyover that was very recently opened, so there aren’t as many vehicles using it yet.

As trials have already proven, all this does is move the congestion from one section of the road to the next.

Public transit and more affordable housing where people work is the actual solution.

… Therefore making bikes an excellent consequential solution to commuting. No one with a lick of sense is recommending that the only change required is that people switch to biking instead of driving.
