And what are the Uighurs making that is so interesting?

Did you know that most of China’s debt is held domestically?

I mean so does the United States thanks to the 13th amendment but we don’t have anywhere near the same infrastructure to show for it

Overproduction of commodities is certainly a problem for capitalists. But the workers get to enjoy a lower cost of living. Like I would much prefer we built ghost cities (Chengdu was derided as a ghost city at one point) than have a decades long housing crisis with no signs of improving unless we deport millions of people.

Call it butt sex and then we can also claim this was the gay agenda we kept hearing about.

So I guess you’d say we should change nothing and ignore the wildly eroding support and the poll numbers showing the democratic party has just 28% favorability?

My brother in Christ, you’re not talking to a liberal here.

Listen to yourself. You’re saying the Democrats are our only hope yet they also don’t listen.

Democrats do listen, but only to those with power. Before anything can change for the better we need power for ourselves.

Obamacare was always a rhetorical device to prove how unserious the GOP is at governing.

Except MAGA is not neoliberalism unless we think tariffs are now “free trade”. I get the point that neither party will wield power against capitalism, but they still use their power differently.

I think in order to be a good psychiatrist you need to understand what your patient is “babbling” about. But you also need to be able to challenge their understanding and conclusions about the world so they engage with the problem in a healthy manner. Like if the guy is worried how AI is making the internet and world more dead then maybe don’t go to the AI to be understood.

Does he have a grave? Would be ashame to let a good outhouse to go to waste

Decoupling the market was them admitting their stuff is not as popular to the global market

So even Canada has lower labor costs because of universal healthcare.

Maybe there’s a better example but the point remains, liberating a people comes with self-determination. It’s not a matter of how little rights the people had before the military action.

Well TIL. But to call it liberation isn’t correct. America is also kidnapping people from their homes and work places but to say of another country was to invade and take a territory wouldn’t be the same as liberation. Liberation has a higher standard where the people of the land receive sovereignty and a self-determined government.

我这样说是因为我了解历史

Y’all are desperate to relive the glory days of WW2 when it was clear who the baddies were. I get it, Americans do the same.

Conscription has always violated human rights but there are certainly better words like “conquer”. And let’s not pretend Russia isn’t also conscripting men (though certainly not those in their 50s).

If you make Roman/Nazi salute than your opinion is not worth considering. Either you’re doing it because you approve of an ideology that will always fail, or you lack the contextual awareness to form an insightful opinion.

Edit: judging from your comment history, if you posted an image for yourself doing the salute I would say the latter. But we all know you’re too ashamed/scared to share an image of yourself doing that “gesture”

Where do you think the Nazis got the salutes from? And for that matter, where do you think we got the word fascism from?
