Yes they did and it was pretty popular.

“World Events, Politics & News” it was called.
Used to have an Irish girl called Katie post multiple articles daily.

It should be put back. Oh, and LINKS ALLOWED to support the news being spoken about.
ty, ive change the title to conform to OG, have to double check about links- but if they are on topic I don't see why not , @Apollo @Ness_eb

edit: debate forum rules to apply to

I assume by "state machine" they mean government. Do they give any specific examples of that opposition, or is the parrish preist the example?

edit: all I can find is "pulpit" opposition for publishing book(s) on sex (re women) in the 1940's
It was more of a news thing but Edith would have been a teen in the 40s. if you G00gle her name and include “Irish author” you should find plenty of info on her. If you want further reading you could G00gle something like “what was life like for women in 1960s Ireland?” and you should find plenty of examples.
 
UPDATE on the Olympic Opening Ceremony

Some Christians and churches are whining that they were being mocked because it was mocking the last supper

Some artists are whining that Da Vinci (or was is Di Caprio) was being mocked because it was mocking the painting “The Last Supper”

Far right politicians are whining because…well, they seek out things to whine about to detract from what they are.

The truth from the organiser is even more horrific. He was depicting a pagan party promoting liberty, equality, and fraternity while linking it to the Gods of Olympus.

What a storm in a teacup, and nobody thought to comment on the flag being raised upside down at the end of the ceremony
 
so what your saying is, the only ones with any right to complain are the people who worship the greek gods. finally got that sorted.
Seems that way. No Christians were harmed in the production according to the latest news

Also, as one such worshipper I have no objections to the opening ceremony and the Greek God @Apollo likes me in drag
 
what is this thread even about???

it's been changed, & derailed like 10 times since it's been made 💀
It started off being about internet and privacy issues in Canada

Then it became Canada/world when OP wanted to talk about something that happened in the US

Then it became all issues in Canada/world when OP wanted to talk about the Olympics

Then it became everything everywhere on world events, politics and news when @-Luka took a trip down memory lane

OP has referred to Irish sex books from the 1940s so now there’s a high probability that it will be retitled to “Historical and Current World Events, Politics & News”

TL;DR (it’s an EE thread in all but location)
 
It's getting hot! ☀️😎🌻🌞⛱️🌄🌆

Yellow heat health warnings have been issued across much of England with forecasts saying temperatures may climb to as high as 32C (90F) on Tuesday. All areas of England, except the North East and North West, are covered by the warnings from the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), which are in place until Wednesday.

The agency said the hot weather may have "significant impacts" on the health and social care sector, particularly across the South East of England and London.

The Met Office has separately issued a yellow alert for thunderstorms later in the week which covers most of England and parts of Wales.

The UKHSA has warned the hot spell may make an "observed increase in mortality across the population likely, particularly in the 65-plus age group or those with health conditions, but impacts may also be seen in younger age groups".

It’s a topic fluid thread 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
In Germany, the penalty for publicly denying the Holocaust is a prison sentence, which I find understandable in light of Germany’s troubled history, even though not all Germans were on the wrong side of history so to speak.

If my memory serves me correctly, a woman called Ursula Haverbeck was recently sentenced to a total of 4 years in prison for publicly denying the Holocaust.
what about russia?
