Chinese aren’t real communists, they’re red fascists. They’ve got a more powerful oligarchy ruling class than the USA ever has.

Apparently the mods don’t like me talking about male genitalia, so I’ll rephrase.

You can’t expect to be taken seriously while being an anti-democracy advocate.

Revolution does not always result in democracy, but democracy is still the best system for protecting health and happiness of the majority of people.

Libya now is still better off than Libya under Gaddafi.

Iranians were starving and being shot to death in the streets even before the war, continuing the war until the USA admits defeat will also lead to undue suffering. The only system of representing Iranian citizens is a democracy which is the furthest from their current organization.

The USA already doesn’t have a win condition, but the only way for longterm stability would be something like Iran getting EU membership which isn’t on the table. The solution with the least harm would be for the USA and other NATO allies to help the Iranians overthrow the despots and cut ties with China. The worst possible outcome is like 40% of Iranians die, Israel claims land, and the IRGC stays in power, which is pretty close to your idea of the best outcome.

Also, the Black Plague has not been eradicated. It still exists in small mammals such as gophers and rats, and a strain could potentially mutate to humans again, although changes in human hygiene have made blood to blood infections less common.

The reason it seemed to disappear is because the more infectious and fatal strains spread to and killed off every susceptible human at a rate that could not support its propagation to new healthy humans.

Fuck China, threat to human life on earth

Wait until ABC finds out where all of Iran’s guns and munitions are made.

I don’t have this problem at all.

When people talk about “the media” they generally talk about the news broadcasts and talkshows which are extremely varied in opinions from John Oliver to Craig Melvin to Tucker Carlson. You even get some of them praising Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin, or anti-democracy advocates, such as Tucker Carlson.

Mergers and monopolies are a big issue, but to imply the CIA is running Fox News is pretty ludicrous. If anything it wouldn’t surprise me if the Murdoch family had a 10 point plan on toppling the US Government.

I wonder how many people are impacted. Honestly, I wouldn’t have whitelisted Whatsapp files nor Tencent downloads for any sort of automated defences.

Well I declare it’s double illegal to pray for his recovery.

Right, sorry, mb. In that case I think their anti-journalism take is pretty wacky.

USA mass surveillance isn’t a conspiracy theory because they’ve been pretty open about it.

NSA warrantless surveillance was a huge topic in the 2000s and even involved a lot of litigation.

Size doesn’t always equal better. Awhile back it was discovered that mantis shrimp, despite having many more types of receptors in their eyes than humans, completely lack color interpolation and therefor can only see about 12 colors and shades total instead of the broad range that humans see.

Global war and middle eastern conflicts existed before the internet. Such a boomer lacking object permanence take.

This one is actually true, introducing conspiracy theories is a proven tactic to water down actual discourse on subjects like the Epstein files, data collection, crop-dusting, or Israeli committing genocide.

“Burger Company” logo looks really weird.
