No, you are spouting Chinese propaganda. What is happening against the Uyghurs is categorically a genocide. There other cases too, like forced organ harvesting of Falun Gong members. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_organ_harvesting_from_Falun_Gong_practitioners_in_China And I'm certain there are more of these kind of atrocities being committed by the Chinese government. I wouldn't be surprised at least. Notice how they have to clamp down on freedom of information. Why would a government need to oppress the press in the first place if not because its insecure of being delegitimized? Like, the US is a flawed country and its history has its fair share evil, but it's not China. China can't even stop itself from committing systematized atrocities against minorities. Makes segregation look soft in comparison. I'm sorry, but I don't see how they are uniquely better than the US. It's fine to criticize the US for lacking integrity and not living up to your ideals, but its incredibly stupid to then support an even worse country relative to those ideals just because its opposed to the US. It's just plain stupid.

Bro this is just propaganda at this point.

They do have a nazi camp policy though. Nothing wrong with that apparently. What a load of bull brah.

Whatever offends me specifically, Leo. The law should conform to my biases, Leo. God is on my side.

That you can't fail. Any experience is good experience.

The US doesn't really do those things anymore. But Chinese nazi camps still exist. The US isn't perfect, no one is saying that, but it is still broadly more developed than China is. Your clearly just being campist.

Its such a waste of talent and potential. Bro needs better material. Ideology will fuck you up. Shitty airport self-help would be better than whatever murky forums he was hanging around. The second worst thing is when ideology makes you rich. Now you got a reason to stay.

Most of these are over trade. Still a step above keeping concentration camps and state side genocide of particular people's. I don't see America doing straight up Nazi shit in current day. You don't even acknowledge it. Just "America bad". The whole problem with these campist east bloc simps is that you don't measure a country by its merits but to the degree it opposes the US. Just because it opposes the thing you don't like doesn't make it good. You'd support nazis for opposing America.

I just dreamt that I found a giant 50. Cal sniper. The slide was kind of fucked and the bullets and magazine fellt out when I racked the slide. I cobbled it back together, but I was kind of scared of it exploding, but I wanted to try shooting it anyway. I though it would be funny to shoot a guy in the head that was sitting on a box far away (I was kinda aware that it was a dream), but decided to just shoot the ground instead. It shoot beautifully. The crack was loud but felt amazing at the same time. Unfortunately, the guy ran away before I could shoot him next. The message that this dream is sending is to shoot your shot I guess.

Having to pay thousands of employees and multiple studios in expensive locals is probably a big factor. It's not good enough for AAA studios to make something that's successful at a smaller scale. You don't have that problem as an indie.

The merit of democracy is that it puts limits on power. There are checks on how freely Trump can act (which is why he wants to undo democracy). Who's to say that Xi Jingping wouldn't start a pointless war just to stay in power if the conditions where right?

It's not binary between market demand and passion. If nothing else, you want a passionate life because it feels better. Where you look for opportunities to be more passionate in your life, even if you work at a warehouse. What else you supposed to do? Your not going to become good at a skill without some passion for one. Maybe the issues is not that your too passionate but that your not passionate enough. If you failed at a market venture you discovered one way how to not do it. It's normal for a business to fail by the way. People who make a second attempt at business have a much higher rate of success.

We have bans on childporn and it reduces the prevalence it would have otherwise, but there's still content being produced and consumed underground. Its not possible to maximally eliminate something that there's a demand for. Even when the penalties are severe. And the success in banning child porn is in large part due to it being niche. It would be much harder to ban the teen category.

Humans tend to feel that if your negative in any kind of way it is because of them. Its kind of like when you stare a monkey in the eyes. It ticks them off. Being uncomfortable is a major hurdle for autistic rizz. Another is a lack of interest in the person you are talking to. Passion and sincerity is charming regardless of who its from, which autistis should naturally be good at. Social calibration is a skill issue. Go read The Charisma Myth. It was written by a sperg.

Grass is greener on the other side type shit. Americans aren't enslaving and genociding their neighbors. Just because your economically pessimistic doesn't necesarilly mean that the dictatorship is unequivocally better. Only perhaps better in certain specific regards. This whole tanky shit is brainrot.

So? Doesn't mean an unmitigated China is good for the world. Your just supporting the other empire.

China has the RSF rank 175/180. It's one of the worst countries to be in a journalist in. https://rsf.org/en/propaganda-monitor-rsf-exposes-china-s-global-campaign-distort-journalism-worldwide It is stuff like this why China isn't trusted. You can't even adequately have a dialogue about the truth of the country itself. Its funny too how having literal concentration camps is kind of glozed over. I don't want that running the world.

Fundamental differences in how to run a government on a philosophical level. Its a dictatorship which does not have the same commitments to liberalism and sovereignty. People don't want that running the world. If china can't have small nation neighbours without wanting to attack them they are not fit for the mantle. It's like a wild animal. You literally have to cage them in militarily to keep their aggression in check. Saudis and especially Israel now are demonized plenty for the same reasons. Its mainly people who are personally involved with Israel who glaze it. You don't quiet have your facts straight. I don't understand the millenial China glazers man. Is it just "west sucks" brain turn off? Like those pro-Russia fuck Ukraine lefties sheerly because they just hate the west that much.

To be fair to the big J, he was a prominent cult leader and they did come to him for advice, like with that story of the whoring woman who they wanted to execute. It be like if the CIA asked for you opinion on invading Iraq and everyone cared. He would either have to be their mouth piece and lie to himself or roll with the consequences.

Pharisees disliked Jesus because he undermined their institutional authority over religious law. A revered cult leader criticizes them for valuing the formality of scripture over the actual essence it is supposed to point to. In this context, valuing the formalization of scripture and biblical law over the essence and spirituality they are supposed to cultivate, which they didn't even embody ("may the first one without sin throw the stone at her") To the pharisees, religion was predominately a survival strategy to gain status and power. Much of this critique rings true of academia in the modern world, which tend to value accreditation over truth. Invariably, institutions become political entities, and their survival takes precedent over their proclaimed mission, often twisting it. Like, if your mission is truth, by prioritizing survival you must reject truth whenever it's unconducive to survival. I wonder if humanity can ever solve this problem entirely when it comes to their institutions? The pharisees and others worked with the Romans to have Jesus killed because he threatened to destabilize their power. It's quiet the hypocrisy from men of the cloth. Not chud christian posting btw. I'm not even religious.

Aight dawg

I don't understand why certain conservative Americans are so pro-Israel to the point of it being identity. Is it the WW2 hero complex? I understand Israel being strategically important, but this fervor does not seem entirely rational.

As if ganging up on ginger boy is going to make a difference. Shut the fuck up. Get over yourself. What it really is is group think and ideology. Mob mentality. Bullying a fucking musician for having the "wrong opinion".

You should be able to tell algorythmic slop from a glance. The only AI prediction that seems credible is its actual use being much less than the hype. That's normal for sillicone valley hype cycles.

You'll need a degree if you want to do 1:1 licensed therapy. Depending on the rules where you live, you make people sign waivers if your not licensed and providing 1:1 emotional work ("alternative medicine"). People like Tony Robbins or Teal Swan who just give advice broadly don't even have a college degree.
