Jamaica is planning to ask the UK for reparations for slavery. I support this.

Haiti needs reparations even more. France should pay back what it made Haiti pay as ransom, adjusted for inflation.

Amazingly, Venezuela has not kept Juan Guaidó in prison, despite his overt attempt to launch a coup. Isn't that a crime?

France will require people to show a "Covid health pass", which is proof of vaccination or a recent negative test, to enter a restaurant, a supermarket, or a train.

Checking people's vaccination status is necessary, for now. Doing it digitally is dangerous because it leads to tracking people's movements digitally. For a vaccinated person to catch Covid-19 is unlikely enough that there is no need to identify them.

I also wonder whether people who don't carry mobile devices full of nonfree malware will be excluded simply for that.
