  • Even the guillotine is less threatening to capitalists than nationalization and land redistribution so yes.

  • Sagrada Familia? It's not even finished yet. Are they going to put it in its unfinished state or an approximation of the construction plans?

    This is pathetic even apart from Marx, Mao, etc.

  • Why are Germany and Japan on the dish Blinken? Why are you eating other diners at the table Blinken??

  • Some good news for the environment amid all the gloom. Finally a hybrid cheaper than petrol not just from lifetime savings, but from the initial purchase. The all-electric edition is 109,800 yuan ($15,271 USD) so it's not far behind either.

  • To add onto what Oppo was saying, try getting noise-cancelling headphones or earplugs. They help me so much when taking public transportation.

  • As an example: reddit.com/r/china, /r/japan, /r/korea are all whites or 3rd gen who has visited the country once 15 years ago.

  • It's interesting to read about someone who's not a class traitor like Engels or Zhou Enlai, but nonetheless aware and ashamed.

  • That was a good laugh reading IDF zionists twist themselves into a pretzel trying to defend Nazi imagery

  • Stop saying it like it's intentional. They just forgot to close the valve!

  • Come on Israel. None of this weak stuff please.

    Declare that Cairo and Tehran are Hamas infested and give a 24-hour ultimatum to surrender all operatives without specifying how many there are. I know you want to do it.

  • Are there any reputable journalistic sources that are reporting on it as well?

    All the sources that I can find are Jerusalem Post, Amnesty International, QNews, and the like.

    It's weird that AP, BBC, Al Jazeera, etc. are all silent when this is pretty big news if true.

  • It's a bit tautological. Yes, you get powers, but only "radiation resistance" power from radiation.

  • Let's be honest. If China became a liberal democracy now and keeps their economic trajectory, would the US really be cheering them on? When it means that China's GDP will surpass that of the USA in about a decade and double that of the US in two more decades after that? Will America be okay with China becoming the leader of the free world and become China's junior partner a la Britain?

    The honest answer is no to all of the above questions. The strategy has never been to hope that China turns liberal when they get rich and powerful because America doesn't want China to get truly rich and powerful. China's political system is of secondary concern for the West. Their increasing wealth and strength is what really bothers the US.

  • We also saw something that really stood out, which is that the PRC believed the United States was in terminal decline — that our industrial base had been hollowed out, that our commitment to our allies and partners had been undercut, that the United States was struggling to manage a once-in-a-century pandemic, and that many in Beijing were openly proclaiming that “the East was rising and the West was falling.”

    Sullivan can't get away with this. He can't just say a banger line like this and continue on without addressing it.

  • This is the future if Trump becomes the president.

  • The disrespect of not even including Argentina after listing all those countries is astounding. Milei is groveling and licking your feet while barking like a dog just to be included.

  • Nah I always try pulling this stuff, so I'm bound to get a few misses. Sometimes I have to learn to take an L.

    It's always good seeing you around and goodnight!

  • I was trying to criticize the tacit view that the Spanish/Portuguese conquest of Americas was a net positive by confusing Koreans and Aztecs.

    If Japanese colonialism and forced labor of Koreans is wrong, then the same action that the Spanish did is just as wrong too since people try to inject nuance for that colonization.

    I thought that it was a pretty funny comment but it didn't workout this time. I'm going to send myself off to reeducation.
