Billionaires and corporations here in America have been actively attacking unions for decades. They fund "think-tanks" that spread the idea to workers that unions are stealing their money and are bad for them while lobbying the government to weaken union rights. It has been very effective, union membership in the US has dropped significantly. It is only recently that unions have started to grow again here.

I know a similar method is used to keep birds from grabbing fish in a Koi pond. Something about the filament deters them. The sparrows often land on top of the box first so I wonder if this has the same effect of stopping them from dropping into the filament.

"My virus unceasingly refreshes its signatures (since it is driver-based), and hereby stays invisible for your antivirus."

I just don't even know where to begin with that statement and its ridiculousness. 😂

So he halted the march before reaching Moscow. Took a deal where he goes to Belarus and no one gets prosecuted. And then everything carries on as normal? What was the point of this then?

This is like some bizzaro 90's sitcom. "Quick, I need your help to not poop for 3 days! No time to explain!"
