California produces 10% of American agricultural needs. If they secede it would be way worse on the economy than these tariffs.

Definitely a time where everyone was clambering for power over the graves of dead giants.

Poland and Soviet Russia were both climbing out from the ashes of monarch rule. They quickly scrambled to reclaim borders and expand those borders. Poland was technically the first to expand and move into Russian territory by capturing Vilnius and then Kyiv. This was not a "big bad Russians were conquering poor Poland" situation.

Poland was not the victim you're painting them to be in this scenario.

Good point. I've never seen an ad on it and I've been using it for at least a week. There's sponsored content, but you'd have to go looking for it. Like if I wanted to watch some videos about Nike shoes, I'd see sponsored videos and such. But no actual ads.

Based on the interaction with the app. The features are extensive. There's no ads. My data has most likely been leaked by American companies anyways, so what's the big deal?

Rednote doesn't have ads

So far it's been a wildly better experience

Or just go to rednote instead

I like Pineapple jalapeno and pepperoni, but the magic is the pineapple and jalapeno. It almost creates a whole new flavor and it's awesome.

Get ready for The Great Depression Pt. 2: The Electric Boogaloo

Sounds like another great reason for Amazon workers to organize a labor union.

China keeps taxes low by investing directly in businesses instead of shelling out grants and tax breaks. It's been incredibly effective.

Last time we had a tariff war like this was the great depression

Well I already deleted the app and it's not available on the app store. So long fake Chinese app. I'm going to a real Chinese app instead.

A machine could never come up with a word like CummasaurusFlex. Only a human is that stupid.

If all my data is for sale and China can just buy all my data from Meta, Amazon, Google, etc. Then why not just skip the middleman? At least if I give my data directly to the CCP, Zuckerberg won't have access to it.

I just learned from red note that Chinese people don't pay property taxes. Once they pay off their mortgage, they just own their home. I'm definitely the one living in a third world country.

Our phones are full of blatant authoritarian spyware already. What's one more? I'd rather the CCP own my data than Meta or Microsoft anyways.
