Yea its complete fearmongering, the part that says "some even live in Russia and China" just gives it away. This was just a handful of americans hustling tech companies posturing as outsourcing companies.
The West has some sort of trauma with bears
Lol me too, being naturally contrarian in a catholic conservative home made me fall into the right side of history.
Yea its pretty shit. Lack of parenting or lack of attention has been a problem for a long time but kids suppressed this with healthier activities, nowadays with social media kids are one click away from having their feed full with a nazi like pewdiepie.
POV you enter a hate competition and your opponent is wearing a chain cross and has a "god first" tatoo.
you can grill your landlord
These are psychos that love war, and are very likely chasing some sort of war high.
Remember these people have internalized russophobia to a degree that makes them believe they're saving western civilization or some grandiose mission like that.
Based ukraine making denazification easier by bringing fascists from all around the world to get whacked.
Well it's safe to say that the leader of the union is a fed. Does this union even have fangs?
It should be obvious to anyone that pigs work against the interests of the working class, they are the enforcers of private property. They are the whip crackers of today, its an error to cooperate with crackers, they will sell you out when given the chance.
I think the approach is to initiate talks with other union members, and suspect about this leader of yours.
Chinese people have also felt a lot of persecution around the world, anti-chinese pogroms happened frequently during last century.
ABSOLUTELY BASED
After reading the article, i think this is just fake lol. It seems like the american girl was hustling the tech companies acting as some sort of outsourcing company.
As usual mainstream media struggles to call the shooter a terrorist.
Yea i guess that's part of the reason they ended up as pigs.
I wonder if these pigs ever wonder what the fuck they're doing over there.
There has to be a balance, we need to understand that as long as we export harvests out of the field we need to import nutrients into the field. We can't expect plants to naturally replenish the nutrients that we unnaturally extract.
Also we need to understand that when we introduce heavy machinery into a field, we need heavy machinery to break compaction. Plants and soil organisms simply cannot naturally break the compaction caused by our unnaturally heavy machinery that is heavily concentrated in the small contact area of a tire.
Some of these dogmatic beliefs lead to "regenerative" farmers being more extractivists than the industrial farmers they demonize.
Plants compete between them for resources, sorry but its idealistic nonsense to claim that they work together.
Javier Milei on the campaign trail, eight months ago: "Not only am I not going to do business with China, I am not going to do business with any communist."
Turns out Argentina and many more countries rely on Chinese companies even to produce bills 😅
>Some governments have asked Beijing not to publicise the deal because they are worried such information could compromise national security or trigger “unnecessary debates at home”, the person said.
They even know it's shameful lmao.
I wonder how many more "invisible" industries China dominates, i always assumed that central banks had the monopoly on producing their own physical currencies but turns out i was wrong.

This could be another embarrassing setback for US foreign policy, this time in its so-called "back yard" (or as Biden calls it, "front yard").
This situation shows that the US does not have the economic power it used to have, Russian sanctions over banana imports were enough to sway Ecuador away from the arms deal. Overall it's a pretty funny situation where both Ecuador and the US look very silly.

Stock buybacks, aka corporate financialization, as a mode of predatory value extraction
Interesting in-depth read on stock buybacks and the main perpetrators (Apple is #1 of course). Stock buybacks are corporate corruption, where senior executives cash in the profits of the company by getting paid in stocks and then colluding to use the company profits to buy stocks (thus artificially inflating the value of stocks) and then dumping them. Literally a pump and dump scheme.
When someone mentions that there is no corruption in the private sector, send them this article.
Any tips for hosting a blog? i recently read this speech by deng about the pen being a major tool for exercising leadership and i want to start writing my thoughts to practice and get better.
Of course all political parties are disgusting in liberal democracies but there are some that just are insane.
In Mexico it has to be PAN, they're your usual latin american conservative party. Elitists, very catholic, racists, malinchistas ( they hate mexico and its culture ). Right now they're going insane because a former secretary of national security was declared guilty off collaborating with drug cartels in a US jury ( they idolize the US so this is funny af )
Some of my favorites are OddTaxi, which was a big success but not that popular bc of the art direction. Sing Yesterday for me is also another great one if youre into slice of life genre.
