Do you know some more details, afaik the 4 individuals were thrown out because they'd have to say how individually their life was impacted by climate change while the org being 2500 big were able to argue from a 'group' perspective. But in any case they might be able to try again now so.

I refuse to accept that Gibraltar even exists
Small bloomer news incoming:
A swiss organisation called 'Climateseniors (f)' (Klimaseniorinnen) won a case in front of the European Court of Human Rights, they argued that because Switzerland is not doing enough against climate change their human rights have been violated. Women seniors are especially at risk during heatwaves and are much more likely to get sick or even die, so they argued Switzerland was putting their lives at risk. The ECHR agreed with the Climateseniors and now Switzerland has to 'do more'.
Some background info on this group, it was funded in 2016 with around 150 members but has since attracted up to 2500 members, they were contacted by Greenpeace who saw a legal argument that climate policy that harms people be brought in front of the court of justice.
4 Individuals also brought their forth but were denied by the court.
This thing is somewhat historic and opens up a path for similar arguments in the other 46 countries that are party of the European Council.
Terminal german brain, man this interview is at least to me the distillation of talking to any german about politics nowadays. This guy sounds like your average german lib, who lives in a big city but not in 'those parts'. But I wonder, the fuck did he think would happen? Like did he at any point think about the things he wanted to accomplish because he just comes over as the dumbest guy, like a german joe rogan.
NATO going to push another 100bnUSD towards the Ukraine/Russia war, which I don't think anyone here is suprised to hear.
Solve world hunger for 3 years or give some scrap metal so guys on this side can blow up guys on that side.
Dang just a normal check gone awry, nevermind that the whole 'we are cracking down on money-laundering' after what CUM-EX CUM-CUM, wonder if someone high up was involved in this whole scandal like someone who used to be mayor of Hamburg guess we'll never know.
Like if Germany was a country that took corruption serious and this was them being overzelous I think your argument would hold water but it doesn't. Deutsche Bank has like a scandal every other month it seems like and all the small private banks have been as well. People directly involved in major tax fraud have seen no consequences the biggest thing you'll see again taking an example from something like Deutsche Bank is a fine that's lower than the amount of money they got from doing the illegal thing. The FIU isn't cracking down on money laundering, corruption and all that what they are saying 'You ought to give us a cut' as long as they aren't jailing and properly fining those institutions.
Second Germany currently has an outright nazi-party polling at 20% (AfD with them saying nazi shit over and over and being spotted at nazi-events) a covered nazi-party polling at 30% (Union defending all their nazi friends and saying the same shit but a bit more laid back) and crypto-nazi parties polling at 15% (SPD with their Scholz who thinks that they should 'IM GROSSEN STIEL AUSCHAFFEN' like sorry but if 65% of the votes are like this don't be suprised when people outside of germany say that germany has a major nazi problem. The only difference now it seems is that brown people are the subhumans.
If germany wasn't full throttle behind Israel, if Germany wasn't currently being dragged in front of the ICJ for facilitating a Genocide then you could be right but they are so....
Like get fucking real germany isn't being normal they haven't been normal for at least the last few years when SPD was like "We gotta get way more racist" and this isn't me being a tankie or whatever that's me trying to take a social democratic position. They are purposefully going after pro-palestine, pro-peace activists. Just like they've gone after climate activist (Remember that one where the police broke federal law?)

Went with Dominican Republic first to see if my guess for area was right then it was straight down so I had to choose and I won the coin toss
response time on the fediverse getting worse and worse, truly tis the end of everything.
I've posted some of their threads in the past and they are just not alright, one standout one was when Yemen imposed a blockade a ton of people fell over themselves to say how much disgusted they are because now the west will just have to blow up brown people, or when that UNHRW was happening and they just had to say that 'of course Hamas has completely undermined that organisation we shouldn't give them any money at all this all makes perfect sense' like there's a reason that AfD (the most fascist party) is polling at 20%+ and feddit.de is just proof of it.
Yeah its an incredibly bad instance but most of it is just shitty bad and I just thought this was more funny bad because guy getting banned to then 4 hours later go and make a post about defeding is funny. As for the transphobia I wouldn't be surprised if the admins there will just hand wring about freedom of speech and shit like that.

This one was actually pretty easy ngl, I guessed it was a city state based on small their exports while having pretty diverse exports. Plus I visited it at one point so.
