“thanks to India and China”

Liberal hogwash to put the blame on countries which produce the slop they all consume. Where do they ship the industrial goods? Chinese industrial development is directly correlated to the offshoring of US industry. US finance companies still dominate global markets and direct the production of billions of dollars of goods and the creation of billions of tons of CO2.

Completely unserious analysis and understanding. You can’t seem to see past your own chauvinism.

Saw a clip of ol Neil coming along and saying that Mount Everest wasn’t the highest point on Earth to a physicist because of the equatorial bulge and “sea level” not mattering to physicists.

Yeah sure just blatantly disregard the entire human perspective of the world and how we as people relate to it to say make up some dumb “gotcha haha” to sound smart.

So many people, him specifically, are incapable of framing things in a non dismissive way. It could have been an interesting point or piece of information about how how large the equatorial bulge is, but he’d rather come off as an insufferable nerd.

Nah that’s a chocodile which is a chocolate covered Twinkie

Konsi is very cute and I love your work. Hope things are going well!

Love seeing these regularly again. I don’t know if I was gone or you were gone but I’m happy one of us is back!

Go read up on videogame addiction. Reduces grey matter in the brain. Having socially isolated kids who only play games alone is damaging. Having kids touch grass in order to help avoid that is good.

“Least obvious psyop” after spewing straight up BS. Okay lol

I’m done goodbye

Look man I’m not gonna respond to anymore of this stuff. I just want to point out that most of what you said the first time is untrue and then you just double down and list a bunch of other things as truisms.

Be a little critical of narratives about places you know nothing about yeah?

Religious books are not banned. There are millions of christians in China. There are millions of Muslims in China. Reducing hours of video game playing could greatly assist with insane amount of hours that come with game addiction. It probably needs workshopped more but I personally think this change in coordination with providing youth with solid after school programs and activities would be good for long-term health and well being. That TikTok thing is BS. People in China watch just as much brainrot on douyin. Winnie the Pooh is beloved by people in China. Literally go around for five minutes and you’ll see his face plastered on shirts bags and as stuffed animals. As for the companies, this is good if true. Fuck companies doing whatever they want and hurting people. I hope they continue to have significant government oversight.

Xinjiang is a more complex situation but if you look into it all accusations of genocide come from one source, Adrian Zens. He’s a CIA asset who claims god revealed to him that it’s his mission to destroy China. I’m gonna listen to the Muslim countries (and the UN) that came and inspected the region and said nah it’s chill.

Have you ever talked to someone from there? I have and just asking them about this shit is really useful for learning that 80 percent of this stuff is untrue, and 20 percent is misconstrued.

That’s the thing, if a lie is a big as the ones you present here, everyone would know. Yet here we are and the average person from china will complain about a lot of things but never the things you brought up here.

Other people have tried gum and not had it help them. I find it pretty helpful for me so far. I’m now two weeks in and I only chew 2 pieces a day now. Only have it when smelling others’ cigarette smoke triggers my cravings. Overall, I’m gonna try to quit the gum by the end of next week.

I will note that I seem to have way easier of a time with nicotine withdrawal than other people I’ve talked to.

70% of Israeli weapons come from the United States…

Sure sounds like they know what they’re talking

Show the pigs who makes the world turn. Power to the workers

Smoke and fucking mirrors. I hate the people selling the planet.

Wish them a very painful die

I always smile at young kids if they meet my eye in public. Feeling loved and like you’re in a safe stable community is an invaluable part of growing up and I hope that all kids can feel a small amount of that from me.

I don’t imagine we’ll ever see the United States kill 20 percent of the Korean population again.

Wearing spurs so I can scratch large trucks on my moped

Running away is how you capture territory in war? 🧐

Wonder how they’re gonna handle vi’s transition into a fascist cop. I hope they don’t end up with messaging that waffles between the people who direct systems of exploitation and those violently lash out against it are equally bad.

Right, the only value and purpose of arts and literature, it’s creation and enjoyment, is to make a product to sell or consume a story. What a foolish opinion.

Another nation’s airspace

Intersectionality is the idea that various forms of privilege and circumstance interact with each other to make an individual. Certain influences are more impactful upon a particular person’s circumstances, and thus influence privilege to a much greater extent. The non-linear nature that DinosaurThussy is talking about can better be shown with examples.

If you’re homeless and white it’s clear that you’re in a worse off situation than a billionaire who is black. Class status has a far greater influence on this situation. It would be fair to say that the black billionaire has more privilege due to his class status but not his ethnic identity. That being said, it’s unlikely that the white man was denied a job due to his race in a way a homeless black person may be. Being poor and white and poor and black have many commonalities, but intersectional analysis allows us to understand the different ways and avenues that particular characteristics influences the ways that a person may end up in a particular circumstance.

The idea continues on. A person who is a billionaire may be significantly shielded from a lot of racism, or face it in a less extreme way. For example, that proverbial black billionaire likely wouldn’t have many run ins with racist cops in impoverished neighborhoods. However, he still might face the unifying characteristic of being called a slur by his peers in the way that a poor black person might. His privilege of wealth may not complete inoculate him facing racism at all, even if he faces it in a less extreme way.

In essence, this situation is viewing individuals dialectic-ly. It seeks to understand how all of a person’s identity and circumstances relate to the struggles and oppression certain groups or people may face in society.
