    This is the difference between political systems where one is really really bad but at least doesn’t regularly assassinate opponents in the most horrific ways, and allow people to speak their minds.

    I don’t trust the US any further than I can throw it, but no matter how you look at it, it’s the lesser evil.

    Hell, look at sports. If a Russian athlete wins you can pretty much disqualify them for doping without having tested them because they all do it and I feel sorry for them, I feel sorry for that situation. There is a reason (beyond this war) why Russian athletes weren’t allowed to compete at certain events, and it’s the insane amount of doping used by them. I’m sure these athletes don’t want to do this crap, but a state basically forces them to.

    I can see the worry about similar issues with developers.
