  • I was off topic. My thoughts were of a bigger picture. My comment was of no relevance.

  • Yeah, any non native government is a fraud. Everything the US does, China and any other "super power" has committed as well.

    I'm not anywhere near an expert on history, but when one regime is held up higher than another regime, we forget that they got there through blood and murder. Yes, I know the article was on infrastructure, but there is a whole intricate world where everything is connected in one way or another. Uyghurs are just one population that have existed on this planet. And yes, I'm sure there are some ethnic Uyghurs who are doing just fine.

    You can easily find a video where a north Korean defector is claiming how much better north Korea is compared to the US.

  • Yes, a propaganda piece. The US sucks, just like any other country where a non native population is in control of the region, but you have to look at how that infrastructure is being built and where. What is being removed or destroyed to make way for that infrastructure.

    I'm calling out the fact that this news piece exists for what purpose? The news needs to report on actual news and not assessments or opinions.

  • The article is trying to praise china's efforts to build infrastructure, but I dare you to criticise the Chinese government. Say something negative on CCP national broadcast about Xi Ping. I'm not defending the US. I'm also not naive to the actions of those in power.

    You, on the other hand, sound like a CCP shill.

  • I wonder how the Uyghurs feel about this. Or even Taiwan. This is just CCP propaganda. The people of China are just as much victims to their government as the people of the US. All around the world, countries are being led by inept and out of touch capitalists. It doesn't matter how they frame their governments. Making money is the number one goal.

    We all could be living in a highly futuristic world with everything provided to us if only those who stole it all would just give back a little.

  • We need a publicly funded video hosting service like PBS.

  • I bet none of the students feel comfortable about paying the high tuition.

  • He always looks like a fragile child trying to look mean.

  • Gasoline causes very serious harm. We should ban people from using it. Guns are extremely harmful if used correctly. Maybe we should ban people from using guns. Fentanyl, that harms people. Botox harms people. Oxygen can even harm people. We NEED to stop people from having access to oxygen.

    Edit: I just realized we're doing everything wrong! The single most leading cause of death, out of everything combined, is life. Life causes death. It is imperative that in order to stop things from dying, we need to stop them from living! My God, why hasn't anyone thought of this yet! TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!

  • I thought they were all about state's rights vs federal mandate. If it doesn't happen in their state, they can fuck off.

  • It's an age-old tactic to not try and stop something so that you can claim self-defense later.

  • I have such a huge backlog of games that I don't even have an urge to buy new games anymore. I know I can eventually get them at a huge discount later anyway.

  • My wife and I just bought ours last November. We aren't getting anything else anytime soon, so good luck on selling more of the next gen.

  • The mainstream conspiracy theory is that the US knew about it but allowed it to happen for a reason to pass more restrictions like the Patriot Act. One fact we do know is that the CIA was actively still trying to recruit and turn one of the terrorists on one of the planes. So we have proof that the CIA knew about it.

    We know that the majority of pilots were Saudi citizens

    There's more, but the CIA connection shows we knew about it before it happened.

    My personal "hmmm" moment was how well the towers fell, almost as if they were controlled demoloshed, but I admit ignorance on the subject.

  • Cabin In The Woods. I wanted to see it because of the commercials and wondering WTF?
