Inb4, the tankies come crawling from the woodwork to claim how this will be bad for the rest of the world, and we should let Russia conquer Ukraine in the name of "peace."
It sure is strange how they'll support Russia, despite being a crony capitalist state, on account of the Soviet union calling itself communist and Russia being a post-Soviet successor state, but not Ukraine, even though that's also a post-Soviet state.
China is also a crony capitalist state - they don’t exactly distribute the wealth obtained from leasing public land and operating businesses.
They and Russia share a goal - destabilizing the west, especially the US, to gain geopolitical importance and to stifle calls for democracy and human rights.
But why? Why inb4?
This entire post is now derailed to be about tankies and nothing about the issue, which is great news for Ukraine and Europe, and for USA too.
Seems to me your post is just about the perfect tankie/Russian Propaganda post to derail the debate. Maybe you think it's clever IDK? But IMO it's idiotic noise that doesn't add anything.
If you took a look at my post history it would actually say the opposite, but nice try, though. You could've started your own comment thread if it was such an issue for you.
China’s propaganda strategy is more of a concern than privacy (the motivation is Bejing’s control/amplification/censorship of content, not data gathering)
Good job Biden... screw Israel but apparently we need to grease the Republican-led Congress with Palestinian blood to get them to stop cuckolding Putin for a second.
But to be clear, because the media never is these days, the $26.3B "Israel" aid package contains: $13B for the US' own defense activities in the region (like protecting international shipping from terrorists) and replenishment of US stockpiles, $9.2B for humanitarian aid for Gazans, and $3.6B in security assistance for Israel (which is almost exclusively for Iron Dome missile replacement and further development of the Iron Beam system) with the additional $600M being 'general expenses'
Very interested to finally see ByteDance's rebuttal. I don't expect them to take the ban lying down. A lawsuit will likely be filed, a court battle will be had, and maybe a wily American billionaire who's easily controllable by Chinese interests is willing to be a useful idiot for a few years.
