Taiwan has never been colonized by a foreign nation, except by the ROC after the Chinese Civil War.

North Korea supporting the side committed to ending illegal Israeli occupation and genocide, let's go!

This is a reflection of China's shifting priorities: it wants to change it's economic driver from being export-driven to being consumption-driven.

I don't see any language tag on my end

I disagree. ICBMs serve no purpose in a war unless you've already lost. Nuclear strike capability is suicidal and China's no-first-use policy makes ICBMs completely irrelevant to the discussion of China's war capability (particularly w.r.t. Taiwan and the SCS).

You don't launch nuclear weapons unless you've lost and you want the other side to lose, too.

What even uses a liquid fuel in the Chinese arsenal? The newer Dongfengs are all solid fuel. US intelligence once again demonstrates their impeccable research ability.

I guess the DF-4, but it was mostly decommissioned ages ago. There's like one or two hanging around for historical reasons.

Not internationally significant. This is US news.

Detains Imran Khan

Is shocked election is not fair

No way...

Mods are so cute: denying that Israel is committing genocide, removing comments that say as much, and calling it "misinformation."

lmfao nice petrodollar btw

Explains why Canada is so happy to dick around in the Middle East.

It should either fall under "not our problem" or under "conflict bad please stop fighting." Those are the two reasonable humanitarian positions.

Perfectly normal thing for independent media to do in support of a healthy democracy.

Didn't Volkswagen hire an independent inspector who found no evidence of slavery labour in their supply chain?

No shit.

It's RandAlThor, what do you expect?

The US has been producing more electricity from fossil fuel sources than ever before and uses accounting tricks to claim that consumption is more from renewables.

Plot the total energy produced from fossil fuels on an absolute scale. It's been growing rapidly YoY.

by policy, China makes it extremely hostile for non-ethnic Chinese groups to immigrate to China. If you're Han, Manchu, Hui, etc. it's not too hard, but if you're white you might as well give up.

In fact, emigration from China has slowed in the past decade. QoL in China has gone up as it has gone down in the rest of the world, and the promise of better economic opportunities only materializes itself in tier-1 US cities like New York and San Francisco.

bye

what's wrong?
