If fighting is sure to result in victory, then you must fight, even though the ruler forbid it; if fighting will not result in victory, then you must not fight even at the ruler’s bidding.
A divided, unorganized Left cannot possibly hope to win against the fascist party and large militarized institutions corrupted by fascism, the Left needs to organize first.
Unfortunately the “heavenly mandate” is just made up by power-hungry narcissists who are searching for an excuse for their corruption and incompetence. Democracy always leads to better long-term policy outcomes than dictatorships.
Isn’t the definition of an autocracy, a system where laws are used for leaders to control the people instead of people using laws to control the leaders?
Actually a fun fact there, they’re both owned by different Aldis.
[Aldi] was split into two separate groups in 1960 that later became Aldi Nord (initially Northern West Germany), headquartered in Essen, and Aldi Süd (initially Southern West Germany), headquartered in neighbouring Mülheim
The brothers split the company in 1960, reportedly over a dispute about whether they should sell cigarettes. Karl believed they would attract shoplifters, while his brother, Theo, did not. This led to Theo running Aldi Nord and Karl running Aldi Süd.[22]
in 1976, Aldi Süd opened its first store in the United States in Iowa,[a][29][30] and, in 1979, Aldi Nord acquired Trader Joe’s.[19]

Also pick a brick probably ships from a Danish warehouse, so it’s all manufactured in the EU.
I’m pretty sure that Danish shipping companies simply don’t want to deal with the new Trump bureaucracy.
The Danish postal service has stopped all shipments to the US:
Lego is manufactured in Denmark, with a super advanced fully-automated factory. They could build new factories in the US, but then it would be far away from their engineers and based in a country with a failing economy.
Heres a presentation from the Lego engineers that automate the computer systems:
Windows users complaining every time someone says they like Linux
You can’t prove that Google isn’t shipping backdoored versions of the app to targeted individuals
Trolleybusses and trams are basically indestructible. Normal busses only last like 20 years, electric busses even shorter, but trolleybusses and trams will last 100 years with proper maintenance. The only big wear part is really the tires on trolleybusses, which doesn’t affect trams.
The main reason why old trams aren’t run anymore is just because they’re a bit small and noisy and not wheelchair accessible. That and car companies convinced cities to pave over their tram lines to be able to sell more cars.
