it really betrays how shallow these people’s understanding of geopolitics is that they are constantly making these stupid charts; constantly trying to convince themselves that the world is as simple as “this side good, that side bad” like some kind of marvel movie. And the worst part is they’re so smug about it. They post these in their communities and everyone nods along like haha yup this is freaking epic bacon sir

I have known people like that, in their worldview, being blocked means he “won” and is automatically correct about whatever the debate was.

yeah when I block someone it’s because I don’t want to see their stupid shit in my notifications, not because I’m too scared of all their facts & logic lol

can’t wait to see libs get mad about this, completely missing the irony

it genuinely makes me happy to know how mad liberals are that it didn’t work lol. like you can hear it in how they talk about it. they fucking hate that China is powerful now

what I have learned from skimming that thread is that the average redditor thinks we would only lose such a war because “the rest of the world has more bodies to throw at us.” Literally just the “Russians haven’t lost yet because they use human wave tactics” excuse but applied to the entire world lol.

was speaking to a family member who mentioned her coworker talking about “standing with Israel” which sent me into a full blown rant about how fucking evil Zionists are and how Palestinians are 100% justified in their attacks on Israel and I think my indignant rage kinda shook her a bit lol.

I feel like I’ve had this anger boiling just under the surface for so long and I finally opened a release valve and just went off about how Israel and the US are unequivocally evil. I ended up apologizing to her because once I cooled down I felt bad about blowing up on her but man it felt good to finally just release all that anger. I need a better way to channel it though

that comment reads like a teenager who just took their first civics class and has everything all figured out now

My friend’s girlfriend is Chinese and when I first met her we talked about China for a bit and she later told him that she wasn’t used to people talking positively about China. He told me she sometimes lies about her ethnicity to avoid people being racist. made me want to punch a wall

it’s so ridiculous how that’s even possible; baffling how anyone can think this country is a democracy

lol I haven’t worked there in years but I believe the actual degree I put down was psychology. I think they were just desperate to fill the position because at the time their IT dept was like 2 people

just said I had an unrelated degree because the position required a degree of any kind

my friend’s wife went to school to be a veterinarian and she’s still paying off her loan. She graduated ~15 years ago.

I dropped out of college back then and just lied on my resume to get an IT job lol

you can try adding 12ft.io/ in front of the url to bypass some paywalls (e.g. 12ft.io/https://piss.cum/). I just tried it on aftermath and it worked

my friends’ group chat is talking about Iran’s attack and is repeating the “Israel stopped 99% of the missiles and drones, what an overwhelming victory for Israel” shit. I don’t have the energy or will to argue with them about it so I’m just ignoring the chat for a while

that before/after pic that keeps getting shared is so funny because it’s just zionists admitting that their only metric for success is the amount of civilians killed. “oh your attack didn’t turn a city into rubble and result in thousands of child-sized body bags? weak shit”

China’s support for its domestic industries has drawn complaints from competitors since it joined the World Trade Organization two decades ago. They argue that direct and indirect government support has kept costs down and exports cheap.

“stop being so good at producing stuff! it’s not fair!”

lol @ putting “CPA” in your twitter display name like it’s some kind of prestigious title

also what a weird example he chose. In-n-out is one of the few places that didn’t raise their prices like crazy over the last several years. When I was in high school all my friends wanted to work there because their starting pay was $15/hr (back then the minimum wage was $8). It was recently around $18 or $19 I think so raising it to $20 didn’t really change much at all. What a doofus

isn’t one of the most popular talk show hosts in China a transgender woman?

“While there is a debate about the effectiveness of sanctions, what we are now seeing is what would start to happen if the sanctions were removed,” said Byrne. “This is giving North Korea a very significant lift.”

oh no, anything but that
