I am not sure about that 'in practice' in Russia. People falling from windows or dying in labor camps are not just accidents.

Probably the logic of the ruling party: this president is not great, but if we impeach him now there will be elections and a new president will be elected, this time one from the opposition party. Competent president working for the other party might be considered worse than an incompetent and corrupt one.

I am sure they would vote for impeachment if they had real chances of winning the presidential elections.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about Korean politics, except some recent headlines.

Many drones were shot down. People were hiding in shelters. Lives were saved through various countermeasures, but this does not mean the attack was not big.

I hope they can be held accountable for mistreating those 'transplants" (what an ugly word!) too. But I guess that would be easier here in EU than in USA.

For now it seems the military took over. They say 'temporarily', but they always say that... it might, as well, be just a change of the dictator. Let's hope it is not the case, this time.

Oil is lighter than water, so, in water, it will 'want to go up' rather than down. I guess something like reversed syphon could be possible. I am not sure if the density difference is enough for this to be practical, though.

Valid point, but leaving thins as is does not seem like the optimal solution. Maybe the mods could occasionally post examples of removed spam/bot content, for transparency and awareness. Leaving this to random users can end with more mistakes and actual abuse.

Also, the troll/bot comments and discussion around them will less disturbing outside of the intended context (where they were posted to cause disturbance or misinformation).
