Next time I meet a conspiracy theorist in my workplace, I probably have to confirm he’s right…

I think this is a universal fediversal problem. We are rather informed, but the problem is the rest of the world.

The opposition says the reforms, which among other things criminalize contempt of parliament by government officials, are needed to bring more accountability, but the DPP says they were forced through without proper discussion.

Checks for politicians, please. “They forced us” appeals to the sympathy, but the logical conclusion is NOT “we remove it”. In short, it’s a bad reasoning.

This is starting to resemble Putin’s rhetoric against NATO since he invaded Ukraine

This is basically Article 5, so… Putin won’t care what he said.

The moment of a historic hand shake

Yup, the megarich owns, what, 99% of the wealth? 99% of people are just negligible errors in statistics, depending on how you measure the economy.

That’s apparently how Russia works.

Yes. If that looks bizarre, they’ve forgotten his Presidency.

This post shows why I prefer fediverse over Reddit. On Reddit this post would be flooded with rants going like"people who don’t vote Biden over antisemitic protests are the problem!!!"

Not cool

You know what it’s called? Corruption.

I bet he listened to zionist patrons for campaign funds, and that was the last straw.

It was the academic way of politely expressing that she’s a fascist.

Sadly, Congresspeople ain’t academics.

People there are happy to continue with WeChat. I’m not sure if they know what it means for WeChat to be never taken down while others are.

They believe they will not be thrown under the bus. They are against socialism, after all.

But weren’t those canceled by Supreme Court?

I don’t disagree, but you can cite anything other than a meme.

I thought it was kinda wise to tie Ukraine funds with Israeli funds. Because, funding Israel was in the interest of Republicans.

It didn’t work, though. House Republicans couldn’t agree on it. Now, Bibi went way worse with genocide than the West feared, and so even Dem voters have shown strong disapproval on funding Israel (understandably so).

It’s now chaotic. I, for one, have lost track on how the Ukraine funding proposal in Congress is going now, despite me having been a donor to Ukraine for multiple times. One might even say Biden’s now doing service to Putin at this point.

Basically, Xi’s personal end game is North Korea-nization. He doesn’t want it, probably, but I see no other option for Xi. And that also means Russia would become NK, and thus in turn possibly also the US because of their komplomats, and then also other nations.
