You won’t get to ask Mr billionaire that while they hunt you for sport.

Reminds me of his Xinjiang vid, where he agreed with every western slander only to say at the end “that’s still better than the west!”. I facepalmed so hard.

It is not even that China tricked anyone. The CPC was always honest and explained why they did what they did, it was the west who either didn’t listen or didn’t believe them.

Prolespod has a multi episode series about the man. It also includes recently made available documents regarding the purges.

Tbf, that pic is from before the first round of trump. The creator is even worse now.

In short: To be considered not poor in China you have to have full access to healthcare, edcuation a relatively decent income, solid housing and so on.

They did not “pat thremselves on the back” for givcing them the “possibility” of making above 1,90 bucks a day.

What you described is ABSOLUTE poverty(not the possibility of making that money, but actually doing so is the definition. Just the possibility would be considered a failure by chinese standards), the form of poverty(also called relative poverty) which China has fully eradicated not too long ago. China defines relative poverty much more broadly.

Then They’d have done no pushups in the last 6 years and thus had atrophied muscles.

They’re the most bellicose and anti-russian party here in germany. They do not even pretend not to be a US-fifth-column. They got into the government with the promise to be strict about not letting germana rms be exportet into warzones. Ukraine made them drop that instantly, they’re also rabid zionazis. Baerbock (the worst foreign minister we ever had, and we had nazis on that job) immediately claimed to have seen the made up video of the 40 beheaded israeli babies.

For her “good work” she’s getting a prestigious diplomatic position at the UN, costing a experienced and respected diplomat their post.

When has reddit not been wrong about everything?

Blockwartmentalität, fuck yeah!

First texan partition when?

In short: Good, if you have air superiority,have your maintenance facilities close by.

Things one does not tend to have in a near peer conflict.

Tanks are easy to get! First you have to befriend a tank manufacturer…

Considering he was a anti-communist snitch. Makes sense.

The feds pump out better content now that the NED is in financial troubles.

Because “communist” refers to extrapolating Marxian theories on human societal development as far as they can go, i.e. it is the theoretically most developed society possible. It is basically like a post-scarcity, Star Trek esque futuristic society that has such an abundance of wealth people don’t have to work as a means of survival anymore but only work as a means to fulfill themselves as human beings.

It is best to think of “communism” thus as more akin to “futurism.” A futurist is someone with an extremely positive, forwards-looking vision into the future, and wants to do things in the here-and-now to help push us in that direction. It offers an optimistic vision to encourage development in that direction.

Actually that is not the reason. You might want to give Engels’ Socialism: Utopian and Scientific (great book, explains a lot) a look. There he defines what a communist is. A communist is a revolutionary and scientific socialist. Communist parties call themselves communist because they’re made up of communists.

The nine dash line is open to negotiations as recent ones with Vietnam have shown. “Taiwan”, actually called the Republic of China, is the rump state of the losing side of the chinese civil war. It only exists because the US interfered. It considers itself China, the PRC considers it China. Only you ignorant people don’t. It is a wholy internal matter of the chinese people.

There is no state called “Taiwan”, get it already.

Understandable.

Damn, I’d love to see that documentary. Propably top notch comedy if it exists.
