That’s technically true. The beauty of science is that nothing is assumed to be the absolute truth. Even the most rock solid theory could be proven wrong one day.
Science deniers though will obviously only require proof for those scientific theories they dislike without applying the same standard to their own ideas.

House Republicans Propose Renaming Oceans After Donald Trump (dailyboulder.com)

House Republicans have ignited a firestorm with a proposed bill that would rename the vast coastal waters encircling the United States after former President Donald Trump. The legislation, spearheaded by Florida Representative Greg Steube, seeks to rebrand the US Exclusive Economic Zone as the “Donald John Trump Exclusive...

It’s too easy to blame Brussels/the EU. Many national governments back these chat control proposals or have done so in the past. They’re just using the EU as a scapegoat to hide their own intentions.

This is about Chiquita’s activities in the late 1990s and early 2000s, not about the 1928 coup in Honduras which was funded by Chiquita, then called United Fruit Company.

Where do you live that you can print your own ballot?

OMG. Here in Germany you sometimes get an entire booklet of ballot papers, if necessary. You wouldn’t even be allowed to bring your own ballot. Otherwise, one could secretly mark their own ballot in some way, thereby undermining the secrecy of the vote.

I’d guess they use this method rather than something else like poisoning whenever they want to make very apparent what happened, as a warning

Hong Kong arrests three for 'insulting' Chinese anthem: They were turning their backs, remained seated when China's national anthem was played prior to a football match (www.france24.com)

Football fans in Hong Kong used to boo the national anthem as a show of political discontent, but the government in 2020 banned the practice as part of a wider crackdown following huge democracy protests in the city....

The cheapest kind of pride, on the other hand, is national pride. For it reveals in those who have it the lack of individual qualities of which they could be proud, for otherwise they would not have recourse to what they share with so many millions. On the contrary, he who possesses significant personal merits will recognize most clearly the faults of his own nation, since he has them constantly before his eyes. But every miserable wretch, who has nothing in the world to be proud of, resorts to the last resort of being proud of the nation to which he happens to belong. He rests on this and is now gratefully prepared to defend with tooth and nail all the faults and follies peculiar to it.

Arthur Schopenhauer, 1851

This is not about Hungary stopping Ukraine from joining the EU, it’s about stopping the EU from investigating if and when Ukraine is ready to join. Even once the EU comes to the conclusion that Ukraine is ready, Hungary could still veto Ukraine’s accession.

As far as I know, the hijab is more of an Arab tradition rather than a Muslim one though many non-Arab muslims have adopted it as well. In Tajikistan it might never have been common. Please take all of this with a grain of salt though, I’m far from an expert on any of these topics.

They can’t get kicked out but their voting rights in the councils could be suspended. That would require unanimous approval by all other member states.

In the past, Hungary under Orbán and Poland under Morawiecki had some kind of pact to protect each other from such a suspension. With Tusk now the Polish prime minister, that’s no longer the case, but there’s some fear that Slovakia’s Fico could shield Orbán instead.

You can change your display name but your user handle is fixed.

I imagine being able to change your user handle could cause issues with federation. If you changed your user handle, your instance would have to notify all other instances. If one instance didn’t get this information, your account before and after the change would look like two separate accounts on that instance.

I don’t understand these comics. Are they pro religion? Are they anti-religious satire?

The first comic seems to both warn against satan and attack religion. It might be talking about all religions but the right one.

The second comic is even more confusing. First it seems to associate education and the theory of evolution in particular with satan. But then it seems to associate rejection of education with punks who aren’t necessarily known for their religiosity.

The third comic, finally, is pretty clear, painting wealth and entertainment (sports) as detractions from religion. This could technically still be satire though.
