You can take pics from tourist spots in Cuba. I’ve been to the edge of the rented bord er. It takes no special effort.
The difference being, of course scale. But thank you for further proving my point. We know the names of every detainee in Guantanamo, we know the flights in and out, we have satellite pictures of it despite it being a facility that’s top secret.
And yet
You pervert!
Yes, as I said, western people with vague ties and no evidence of said ties making up stories.
We know what genocide looks like when a country has complete control over all communications … It looks like hd video. It looks like leaked audio. It looks like tens of thousands of refugees despite military blockades on all sides.
It is not vague stories and claims from people that voluntarily left decades earlier. It is not stories that you can immediately disprove on a visit. It is not the d-tier propaganda that people like you only believe due to racism and believing the Chinese are so fundamentally different that those doing the genocide would have not one single person defect and come forward. The Chinese are human. Not a hive mind. In even the most brainwashed examples of real genocide, a double digit percentage of those perpetrating it defect and try to tell the world. Not one single one has. None of the thousands upon thousands of people required in the act and cover-up of this ‘genocide’ have broke… Making it the most successful conspiracy in the history of the world… If it were true.
Why do you people stop having critical thinking skills the second China is mentioned?
You’re right, hence why I encourage people to visit Xinjiang and try to find these millions-strong concentration camps or just, you know, talk to people from China, especially that region.
Besides a few people that lived most of their lives in the Middle East, not China, there are no witnesses or ‘victims’. And we all know who tends to recruit agents in the Middle East like they’re run by a evangelical death cult.
Xiaohongshu bans all politics, even references. There’s more serious platforms for those type of people, whereas xiaohongshu is to have fun and connect with others.
That’s a hilarious story.
No, China hasn’t. There has been no evidence.
We know how much information should get out of a state with complete control over the flow of information, via Palestine and Ukraine’s respective genocides. Instead of any of that, we have vague, contradictory accusations from Islamic extremists. The uighur people control Xinjiang, and thanks to investment it’s flourishing.
China killed Islamic extremism via education and improving material conditions; that’s not acceptable to the West, so they made up a story.
A) eastern Oregon all combined has about the GDP of Portland. If it were it’s own state, it’d be among the poorest and require tens of billions of federal funds to operate at all. If it joined Idaho, Idaho would actually become less productive per capita while the remaining Oregon becomes more productive.
B) if independent it would give two solid red senate seats
C) most of its water comes from the Cascades, which would absolutely vote to remain in western Oregon, meaning they’d forever be dependent on a blue state, and would be taking advantage of blue states investment into water management while contributing nothing.
D) this move, if allowed at the federal level, would encourage other balkanization of states, creating mass confusion among businesses, generating billions in new costs to handle the bureaucratic strain, and generally make doing anything positive with taxes impossible for decades. That’s without dealing with the massive number of lawsuits, e.g. decades long contracts with states that Might be invalidated with the new state that needs to be settled.
…was that ever in question? Democrats are far right losers that are too incompetent to even convince people they’re not.
All countries where you dont ever have to worry about working while sick, and can go to the hospital freely.
You’re really not understanding how shit the US is.
Really, your link includes healthcare costs, so unemployment benefits, welfare, and food costs?
I haven’t clicked on it but if it’s a GDP comparison alone or an inflation comparison that does not include that, edit: I don’t know how to address what you just linked, given it has nothing to do with the conversation.
…those areas are not on the West Coast. Pull up Portland and cry.
As someone that’s been lucky enough to live outside the US most of my life, any country in the EU would require decades of economic depression to reach the disgrace that is the US cost of living vs income.
You people have been dangling the same carrot for longer than the average American has been alive. It’s like you people forget Bill Clinton was the lesser evil compromise. So was Obama, so was hrc, so was Biden.
If the US falls to fascism good, maybe you people will wake up. If not, and it’s absolutely not anymore fascist now than it was 5 or a hundred years ago, then in 2026 and 2028 Dems will still lose if they keep trying to blame everyone but their own shitty policies for their losses.
To your propaganda about being better off than other countries, that has never been true, it’s still not now.
That’s a full 3$ more than it is on the West Coast. Sorry you guys have a higher cost of living.
There is simply no contradiction there. Supporting fascism and genocide cost Dems the election. Their ideology wasn’t different enough from Trump to offer anything of value.
Harris, you might remember, proposed and supported border legislation that is still further right wing than what Trump has implemented or has stated he’s planned on implementing.
…you understand Biden also wanted that, right?
