would still get restricted because they’re contentious. Like if you start talking about how you believe in equal rights, that’s something most people agree with (at least in principle,) and it shouldn’t be political. But it’s going to ruffle some feathers anyways (especially if you get any more specific than that,) so it’d be restricted.

If this is the best example you can come up with, it is fairly unconvincing that any mainstream political will be restricted.

We also saw something that really stood out, which is that the PRC believed the United States was in terminal decline — that our industrial base had been hollowed out, that our commitment to our allies and partners had been undercut, that the United States was struggling to manage a once-in-a-century pandemic, and that many in Beijing were openly proclaiming that “the East was rising and the West was falling.”

Sullivan can’t get away with this. He can’t just say a banger line like this and continue on without addressing it.

They’re not even going to stop buying Russian gas & oil lol.

Exactly. Death to America!

Nothing to see here folks!

Only when they want to participate in the Olympics

Chinese Taipei of course, comrade.

How can they possibly be Taiwanese if they don’t speak any of the Formosan languages?

That’ll be four F-35 fighters. The wonders of US Military-Industrial complex never fails to amaze me.

Based.

There are a few obvious wrinkles in his plans. Poland, for example, is probably the most significant European country without a past as a colonial power in Africa, Asia or South America but politicians from around the world will not be blind to some of Warsaw’s latest pronouncements on migration. Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki recently said he wants to hold a referendum asking citizens whether they support the arrival of “thousands of illegal migrants coming from the Middle East and Africa.”

So which European country that isn’t racist and doesn’t have a colonial past?

Historical sticklers could also note that Latvia had a brief past as a colonial power. The Duchy of Courland, an antecedent to Latvia, held territory on the island of Tobago in the Caribbean and on the Gambia River in West Africa in the mid-1600s.

lol

Eternal reminder that Britain mismanaged Parthenon Marbles so they are permanently damaged.

Solidarity for Whom? Japanese fishermen? Consumers? The fish???

Europe is complicit in this. Frontex is a European effort, not just Italian.

If only America knew about this trick before 9/11

I’m more inclined to trust Algeria given France’s history of shady affairs in Africa.

Woah woah woah. Who’s a hexbear? And stop minimizing rape culture.

Exactly. If those students want to stop being targeted, they should stop their government instead of blaming Ukraine for the violence. In a sense, they are the real perpetrators and Ukrainian “racism” is nothing more than self-defense.

As I mentioned somewhere up the thread, I’m not talking about you personally. I’m talking about the lack of societal acknowledgement and awareness regarding the issue. When 63% of women working in the Australian parliament report being sexually harassed as I linked above, and there are years of newspaper articles from all over the world regarding it yet there’s no societal awareness of the problem something has to change.

I’m not talking about you personally of course. I’m sure that you are against rape culture that is prevalent in Australia, Japan, and much of the world over.
