Readit NewsLet’s look at the primary and secondary colours.
Yellow: Bad contrast. Red or Green: Action colours, would be bad to see them everywhere. Plus there might be accessibility concerns. Orange: Mostly used as “Not as urgent as red”. Purple: Not as neutral as blue, yet it is the second best option, that’s why visited hyperlinks are purple I assume. It is the logical choice.
We are left with the colour blue. Also, a plus that it is a primary colour; I would assume it is easier to display primary colours in earlier tech.
- Don’t vote for people who actively seek new enemies. - Talk to your representative and tell them to not support foreign invasions. - Don’t believe everything the western media says the next time USA decides to invade some country.
For now:
I don’t think any amount of money will help since the US spent trillions to achieve the opposite. Taliban is stronger than ever.
You can try and raise awareness about the situation in Afghanistan and call out western leaders for their hypocrisy and mistakes. Let them not act like this was a success. Since the US is the best democracy, use your voting power and social media influence. It is basically like cancelling somebody but this time you are cancelling politicians from decision-making positions.
Invasions make bad situations worse.
Perhaps it was on its way out anyway, but my new one is deathly silent, just the way I like it.
I forgot when I quit smoking exactly. 1 year, 2 years? I was smoking around 1.5 packs a day. Allan Carr definitely helped, I found out that it is not perfect for everyone though. But still, it is the first thing I recommend to people who want to quit.
I rarely need to remind myself why I don’t smoke anymore and the mentality I gained from Allan Carr makes that justification quick and easy.
This whole article and line of thought is bat-shit crazy and needs to have more attention called to it so it can be debunked.
This is the second time this week I have seen this kind of thing on HN. Honestly I'm not well equipped to provide help and information to people that think this way, but this whole line of reasoning is horrible and in my view is on par with conspiracy theories, and can only harm society.

Here’s a Hinge engineer talking about the dating economy.

There is an apparent imbalance. Women, in general, are more advantageous compared to men when it comes to dating.
None of this is to say that the PKK has not committed acts which would surely offend western sensibilities, but simply slapping the "terrorist" label on them and calling it a day is not a nuanced way to approach the discussion.
Terrorist groups born as a reaction to heavy injustice. Hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqi civilians motivate a lot of members of the most popular terrorist groups today.
This has always been like this, we don’t live in a cartoon where the bad guy is 2 dimensional.
To try to understand these groups’ motivations is easy when you are immune to their actions. However, this behaviour is pretty off putting for the other side of the discussion, in this case Turkish people.
I think we need to draw a line somewhere. I don’t know where but this doesn’t feel right for me.
When you start the justification game, you need to do it for other groups too. Otherwise it would come off as hypocritical and dishonest. I don’t know you personally, maybe you do say this for all the “terrorist” groups. But I witness this behaviour online a lot when it comes to the groups that hurt Turkish civilians and I wanted to point it out, maybe this comment can give a bit of perspective to some people.
Also a separate note for the audience, not related with your comment, this is not an Erdogan specific issue as the people from the anglo-sphere tend to claim in this thread. It started before Erdogan, it will continue after Erdogan. If Obama could be the next Turkish president, the situation would still be the same.
I would applaud the American youth if your post ever becomes reality.
