Compare progress made in the BRI to prgress made on California HSR (authority established 1996)… And people wonder why the BRI is an appealing prospect?
US GDP grows and manufacturing shrinks. Really makes you wonder.
Girl dropped bomb on hospital, hundreds dead.
Didn’t Ukraine literally just launch missile/artillery attacks at random civilian targets in Donetsk… The same thing they’ve been doing for almost a decade?
Isn’t there ample evidence that Ukraine’s been forcibly conscripting citizens, many of whom are ethnically Russian and don’t feel that motivated to fight against, well, Russians?
Look at a demographic map. Ethnic Ukrainians are in the northwest, ethnic Russians are in the south and east. Guess where Russia is attacking?
Electric is infeasible with Nicaragua’s current infrastructure. As for why Nicaragua’s current infrastructure is so bad? I’m not too sure, tbh.
“defeat”
In what world does Ukraine have a chance of actually reclaiming their territory? Even by the most optimistic estimates, Ukraine’s recent counteroffensive has lost tens of thousands of soldiers to claim… A rural village.
It helps civilians by conscripting all the civilians into the army I guess
Western journalists on the ground claimed that they saw no bodies or blood in Tiananmen Square minutes after the supposed massacre. I’m sure you have a good explanation for that as well?
The Chinese government never denied that people died that night, but they denied the circumstances described by Western media. It’s telling that the perspective told by some student leaders and protestors was not corroborated by Western journalists on the ground. It’s even more telling that those same perspectives were not corroborated by other student leaders. Being precise is important. It’s just as important when talking about Tiananmen Square as it is when talking about current events in Gaza, for its undeniable that people died and providing an accurate story of what happened is essential for preserving the value of the truth and not allowing the truth to be diminished. Don’t tarnish their story by making up bullshit that generates more clicks and more outrage.
The facts tell us that soldiers died in riots before June 4th and that civilians died by gunfire on June 4th. The eyewitness accounts by journalists tell us that it’s unlikely that many (if any) people died on Tiananmen Square. The full video of “tank man” shows that the tanks stopped for him and that he was dragged away by other protestors (and certainly wasn’t run over by a tank on video).
Specifics are important. I’m not telling you to fully believe the official Chinese government statement on the issue. I don’t. In fact, I struggle to think of any official government statement that I’m willing to believe without question. I’m simply telling you to look at facts, to look at video evidence, to look at unbiased third-parties, and to ask yourself what narrative makes the most sense. Then, maybe you’ll consider what drew you to your previous conclusion.
Dude really cited the Kuomintang as evidence of the current Chinese government being Nazi collaborators. I guess One China policy goes pretty far, huh?
The Global South doesn’t support Ukraine. Regardless of what politicians say, it’s just good policy to not antagonize the countries for which trade with you is growing in the double digits annually.
Take a look at how the list of richest people in the world changed after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It’s really quite telling.
Russia, known for dropping nuclear bombs on hostile powers.
Wait that’s not right.
Infrastructure is communist, which is why the US is spending $100 billion dollars on a single HSR line.
Wait, that’s not right.
WUG is just slightly less extremist ETIM. They’re aligned in their goals.

Did the decades of exploitation by their neighbours to the North not give it away?
How would you do HVDC to Japan? Underwater lines?
