Hi
ABC News just covered the shooting, looks like they are running the standard Zionism = Judaism approach. This has been completely failing to run defense for Israeli actions among the public.
I don’t think this will turn into a Luigi situation, mainly because it doesn’t affect Americans directly, but I do think the approach will alienate more random Americans.
Adding to one reasons that China didn’t develop capitalism in the same way as Europe.
Confucianism played a huge role both culturally and politically in China at the time. There was a civil service exam that you needed to take to get into government positions, and almost all commoners would have experience with Confucius philosophy. And Confucius considered making a profit to be something that petty men do.
I think it’s one of the major reasons that the merchant classes never held the same sway with the the government as they did in Europe.
Yea, that’s definitely one of the worst aspects of AI is how confidently incorrect it can be. I had this issue using deep seek and had to turn on the mode where you can see what it’s thinking and often it will say something like.
I can’t analyze this properly, let’s assume this… Then confidently spits an answer out based on that assumption. At this point I feel like AI is good for 100 level CS students that don’t want to do their homework and that’s about it
When all you have are clowns it makes sense that all you get is a big circus act
they call me the paper tiger folks, 纸老虎 in Chinese, I fold under no pressure, all it takes is a little rain or a little water and I crumple.
Not like those Chinese, now they are iron tigers, real tigers, and all they had to do was… Nothing.
Yea something that sticks out to me is how much the democratic silicon valley liberal elites are just ideological zealots. They are completely incapable of seeing things outside their own perspective.
Everything is falling down around them and their first instinct is to plug their ears and when that doesn’t work and they have to recognize an issue they just offer more neoliberalism as a solution
Hey he’s just speed running for the record low approval rating of all time. Currently at 17% approval and only 17% more to go
I think the 245% is referencing Chinese EV exports which already had a 100% tariff implemented on them by the Biden admin. So it’s the 145% plus the 100% previous tariff
Me neither, also after JD Vance publicly called Chinese people peasants, I don’t think the CPC will back down at all and they can easily get the public on their side by just playing that clip on national TV. Meanwhile tariffs being unpopular in the US will only make Trump double down.
I think this is only going to stop escalating when the American bourgeoisie forcibly stop Trump from escalating.
Ok it’s really funny that they have both mainland Chinas flag and Taiwans flag but didn’t highlight Taiwan on the map.
They were too busy spending their energy on screaming in the faces of babies in strollers at pro Palestine protests
Lmao Mexico gets no tariffs and they get to move troops up to the border in response to the US putting troops there, along with the US government actually agreeing to curb weapons trafficking. Trump got played like a fiddle
find a way to initiate the whites-only rapture
Pretty sure this is literally just Christian Zionism
I’m not too familiar with internal Egyptian politics, what are the implications of Trump pulling diplomatic and financial support for the current government? I recognize it as America shooting itself in the foot, but I don’t see what any other leverage the state department could use.
I didn’t believe it until I saw the aid trucks moving in across the Egyptian border. I can’t articulate the wave of relief I felt seeing that. Even if the ceasefire falls apart a week from now, that aid will save the lives of hundreds of thousands of people who would have otherwise died from starvation, disease, and the cold weather.
This is anecdotal but as someone that returned to college in my late 20s the women are just so much more mature than the men are.
My female classmates will be consistently in class, maintaining good GPAs, and often working part time while participating in clubs or lab programs.
The men are well struggling to shower and bragging about not showing up to class thinking it makes them look cool and just being icky in general.
As my female friends put it the bar is in hell and they still aren’t getting over it.
Yea the average person just doesn’t care though, they either know this isn’t true, or they see Israel doing horrific crimes while getting billions of dollars and weapons and just don’t care about being seen as antisemitic. There’s also the Zionists but thats just preaching to the choir.
The second one is way more common, I’ve had to have a few talks with family members about that.
