Good lord he is the king of neckbeards.  Is he making a statement with that?  Gauging from the baby smoothness of the rest of his face I have to assume there is intent there, rather than just laziness about shaving.

Pssst your ignorance is showing.

Also the Chinese would love to overthrow governments, and you’re a fool if you don’t think that China has client states.

I wish China would overthrow more governments and help them implement socialism.  Unfortunately all they're really doing is helping other countries improve infrastructure and handing out free supplies, unlike the US.

LOL China isn’t socialist, and hasn’t been for a long time. Private health insurance is a massive industry in China for example.

 None of China’s “hand outs” are free. Many of the infrastructure projects that China builds are of poor quality, only having won any contracts as a result of underbidding and bribery.

Lol, China the great liberator. Let's see what governments they have supported. North Korea, Cambodia under Khmer Rouge, Ceausescu's Romania, Mujahideen in Afghanistan during Soviet-Afghan war..

[usagi]

tankies should put their money where their mouth is by rescinding their citizenship of the western imperialist hegemony and moving to the Fatherland. or are you only in it for the clout, comrade?

They’re also big supporters of the Tatmadaw (Myanmar’s military), who have just violently overturned an election...

DON’T DISCOUNT EVANGELICALISM AS A FACTOR IN RACIST MURDER OF ASIAN SPA WORKERS IN GEORGIA

I want to be clear. As Joshua Grubbs, an assistant professor of psychology at Bowling Green State University who has published research on religion and attitudes toward sex told RD, “Sex addiction is simply not a credible defense for mass murder.” One of the most significant conclusions Grubbs’ research points to, however, is that conservative Christian men are prone to believe that they have pornography or sex “addictions,” even when they do not. Before he was apprehended by police, Robert Aaron Long was reportedly on his way to target the porn industry in Florida for violence similar to what he perpetrated in Georgia. 

According to Grubbs, “There’s a large and growing body of research that shows that conservative religious values are strongly linked to feelings of sex addiction. We find that men in particular are likely to interpret normal sexual urges as pathological and then act on them in ways that they find to be problematic.” As Grubbs told me in a previous interview, while some people do exhibit compulsive and dysregulated behavior with respect to pornography, “There are also quite a number of people who report feeling out of control even with minimal use.” 

If Long is telling the truth about his desire to “eliminate” the “temptations”—that is, women—that he claims exacerbated his “sex addiction,” it’s likely that he learned to think of himself this way, and to objectify women, in church. In evangelical institutional environments such as churches and Christian schools, discussions of sex are usually steeped in purity culture, that is a complex of beliefs and practices associated with an unhealthy fear of sexuality and intense pressure to remain “pure”—that is, sexually inexperienced—before marriage. I am among the many ex-evangelicals who were essentially coerced into signing “purity pledges” in the 1990s, which is just one of the many manipulative practices associated with purity culture.

We ran into cut rate Chinese contractors repeatedly in the Middle East. They usually “lost” bids that were really shutouts.

That’s very good. You guys are definitely kicking our ass on that point. Our vaccination rollout has been pretty limp up here, with a combination of federal and provincial incompetence making it a giant shit show.
