It's a shame Afghanistan is so plunged by conflict in all the years of my life I've known it.
Geographically it's one of the most interesting regions on earth due to its mountainous terrain. (There is a reason a lot of buddhist monks went there to meditate)
I don't know if I will see it free in my lifetime, sadly. But I hope my children and grandchildren can see Afghanistan in a different light.

Solution: pass an amendment making the oath optional.
Alternatively: pass an amendment clarifying that the monarch of canada is a fictional entity, and change how the governor general is chosen.
Done.
It's like swapping one variable in X for another variable in X. You can keep the same general formula otherwise. Or in legal terms, you won't have to rewrite the constitution.
Would that not be a viable solution?

>Today I logged on to Twitter and I saw two Tweets from fucking Catturd and a bunch from Andrew Tate. Do I follow them? FUCK NO. Elon is a fascist prick, and I hope it all burns to the ground.
Social Media websites use tracking cookies to analyze and match your trends.
Considering so much of your post history on reddit involves politics, are you absolutely sure that you aren't triggering Twitter's algorithms? Are you sure you are not looking at posts involving politics, or watching youtubers involving politics? Eg. Watching drama youtubers who cover figures like Tate and do "takedown" videos on them? Likewise, are you engaging with users who follow or mention Tate? Because that could be why you are seeing it.
Please answer the question. I am not asking in bad faith, I am not concern trolling, I'm not saying this to contribute to the "culture war". It's not a defense of Elon either. No, this isn't to "poison the well", nor' am I "making the dreamworks face", as some youtubers would put it. (However it is annoying I must clarify all those points.)
I'm simply asking this as a legitimate question about how the algorithm works? Is the reason you are seeing Tate not because you keep engaging with that kind of content?
Are other users here having this same issue, even those who do not engage with political content?
