I say yes, she can be black. It doesn’t really matter as long as we’re all human.

The Official title of Taiwan is The Republic of China.

They still allowed the KMT (aka The Chinese Nationalist Party), to participate in their Democracy even though it ran the country as an anti-democracy Authoritarian state for 40 years.

Taiwan and China do a lot of trade together, a war would be difficult for both of them.

Yes! Or that stuff from 80s movies… That they had at the end of long business meetings: Chinese take out!

So much better than foriegn foods like German Hamburgers or French fries.

Nah: Real American food like freedom fries!

The Rubber Plantations were run as corporate states, and 10 - 15 million people were killed. One of the biggest mass murders in the history of Colonial Capitalism.

Roughly equal to the numbers caused by the British East India company when they caused various famines in Bengal and India by exporting all their grain.

Curry is woke! Finally someone said it!

… it’s because it’s foreign and makes my mouth feel burning. I don’t like it. I’m glad someone is finally standing up to this woke nonsense invading our culture!

…holy shit, I was pretending but are these guys just afraid of being colonized? It’s like a projection of a fear of being on the other side of the historical fence, a subconscious history they can’t acknowledge so it comes out as a fear of foriegn things they don’t understand being in control of their “new world”

For starters, Liberals are less violent, desire stability and an uplifting progression in social values, and tend to be fairly comfortable in themselves.

Other than that - when Liberals go far enough left, they become Socialists, and start to hate Liberals for their Capitalist elements and “economic liberalism”/neoliberalism.

When conservatives go far right, they turn into fascist conservatives… Conservatives, just more staunch, violent, and unreasonable.

Technically everything would just freeze in place for 24 hours and then start again. No one would notice to the point this could be happening all the time and we’d be none the wiser.

28, all the gay porn, yiff/furry, and male anatomy ones that I’ve caught while browsing c/all.

It’s because the male ones believe their courses have informed them, and turned them into “knowledge experts” who know better than you. Where as female case managers believe their courses have made them better at connecting people to their resources and practices.

In short, whether conscious or not, the courses they do have different gendered outlooks and effects of participants.

One group becomes entitled ro superiority, and the others becomes a more connected listener.

But it might also be because men lack the lived experience most compatible with your own, and it’s possible they’re better at providing for male clients.

…but really I think women are just likely better at the job, and more likely to be sensitive to the needs of others in a more consistent and accurate manner.

It’s not global. Go get the Wikipedia page of “homelessness by country”. It’s not global. It’s not the case in Finland or Vietnam for instance.

A decade of electing right wing governments, even AFTER the direct lies about Brexit - made things worse? NOWAY! \s

They went to Romania because of it’s excellent legal system right? No wait, they went there because they thought it was a highly corrupt system in which they could pay their way out of their crimes.

…and now they’re going to get prosecuted because they’re a highly visible case.

Vienna is right next door where %60 of people live in public housing, and it apparently works well because in Vienna, public housing isn’t kist for the poor.

Santa keeps a race of slave labourers hostage throughout the year, he ain’t caring about no finger.

He would be easier to support if he had just kept releasing important news/evidence when it was morally justified, and not got into the more questionable activities of private intelligence - such as election meddling.

Bad move on his part, makes him a lot harder to defend.

A million people died in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, despite global protests and outrage. Sometimes it feels like there must be better systems than the current set up of “democracy”.

The guy who passed hacked intelligence from a Russian agent to the Trump campaign whilst pretending it was from DNC staffer Seth Rich (which was an alt-right conspiracy theory) even when he knew that wasn’t true, and even after Seth Rich was dead and he knew it wasn’t true?

The guy who meddled in election outcomes because he thought he had a better shot at being pardoned by Trump?

The guy who was originally on charges for slipping a condom off whilst having sex?

Israel has done so many things that are untenable in the modern age, yet the support from the west has not budged an inch, and it’s bringing the West’s claims to be post-colonial and anti-genocide into question…

…as well as raising some questions that previously only nazi leaning conspiracy theorists would entertain.

The level of unwavering support makes it look like Israel is in-charge, and Western leaders need to explain why this is.

I wouldn’t be surprised if western support is cited in future terrorist attacks. It’s highly unpopular among the public, yet so uniform to the point of being incredibly questionable.

The entire Western world has zero moral standing, and it’s very odd how they all support Israel. It seems Israel is the boss, and that raises a lot of questions.

I suspect we’re risking an increase in terror attacks in the west and should they reference Israel, leaders will really have no defence. What Israel is doing and has done has nothing to do with democracy. It’s nothing less than a repeat of the wars of colonialism, just in a modern settling, and supporting it casts Western progress away from its colonial history to being highly questionable.

The western world is losing it’s legitimacy by supporting Israel like this, and it makes so little overt sense.

Michael J. Fox having his brain disorder from unknowingly eating human remains on a movie set that was near that pig farmer serial killer guy and his brother who used to host parties and kill sex workers.
