For a brief moment, I felt hope.

I think so too, but .world wasn’t blocked.

IKR. I want to know what kind of spicy take got it blocked.

I went to Mander, since .ml is blocked in China.

Harris did repeatedly speak out

Harris represented the democratic party. When you speak out against they very thing you’re facilitating, you just show your constituents that your words are worthless. Same deal with dems speaking out against ICE in trump pt I and then voting to fund it under Trump and again under Biden.

claimed a 2 state solution was the only way forward.

A 2 state solution has been dead on arrival for decades.

Liberals must believe the free market is socially just.

Shame genocide is so unpopular with anyone who might vote democrat. If only someone tried to tell the dems that doing fuckall to improve the material conditions of your constituents, expanding republican policies we all agreed were bad when Trump did it, and sending the cops to kick the shit out of the politically activated and organized youth would decrease voter turnout.

NATOpedia is a great resource if you go in with an assumption of a pro-western bias, but a source of truth lmao.

No, because the lowest-level voter typically has less direct knowledge of higher level politician or policy than the guy who has to work with them.

I don’t think tiered representation is bad if 1: every person’s vote is equal regardless of zip code 2: you have instant recall and can just have a representative replaced if they vote against their constituency wishes.

Holder+video call. Seeing Hanoi traffic or w/e makes people so much more appreciative of why I cant talk.

Just make sure you’ve got a good phone protector and really wrench that thing tight.

Same with my dad and sister, except she would only call if he was on a ladder or in heavy traffic or on hold, or otherwise unable to safely take a call.

The equivalent would be downvoting a SA survivor for telling other women to be more aware and not to put themselves in a vulnerable position. The poster in question isnt pro-bikers-getting-murdered-by-cars, theyre living in the real world where we must take precautions at an individual level because society fails to protect us.

The bath tub has a tray with fancy chocolate and a glass of wine. Lavender petals sit atop the ice.

Filtering, let alone splitting is actually illegal in a bunch of states. Which is awful because it forces bikes to stay in the blob of drivers who you’re basically invisible to.

E:Who the hell is downvoting you? People who think non-cars just have to follow the rules and we’ll be safe?

lol that happened to me on a motorbike, except I swerved, avoided them, but still ate shit. Assume everyone else on the road are idiots or you will get hurt.

Taiwan’s official name, that their government calls itself, is “the republic of china”, “china” covers both places just fine.

That’s what they said

TikTok IS spying on you.

1. No more so than any other social media app, and as someone who lived in America at the time, China having my data was far less threatening than America having my data.

2. Tiktok duplicated their server infrastructure just for America so no American data would leave the country.

3. See the thing about boosting what the state department wanted boosted and censoring what they told them to censo. Tiktok isn’t Chinese propaganda, it’s American propaganda.

But it’s true that the evil CCP is no longer communist: just totalitarian crony capitalist.

The CPC’s tendency to favor the working class over capital suggests otherwise; they’ve raised a billion people out of poverty, while India is a net exporter of food but still has children dying of hunger-related diseases. When a baby formula factory in China killed or sickened a dozen babies due to greed and gross negligence, they took the executives out back and shot them, and opened the market up to foreign imports. When the same thing happened in the US, nobody went to jail and the US didn’t even approve EU imports of formula because that would hurt the profits of the company that had just murdered literal babies.

I would never call China a utopia, but you have to actually understand a thing if you want to make meaningful criticisms of it.

Romanians can afford expensive bikes?
