Then you live in a failed democracy and your only option should be systemic regime change. Viva la revolución.

The Health Survey for England 2021 estimates that 25.9% of adults in England are obese and a further 37.9% are overweight but not obese.
How do you think China got so prosperous? Being outsourced labour is the foundation of the Chinese economy.
Stop projecting your AmeriKKKan views on other countries lmao
Lmao citing MBFC when the NYT is actively trying to unseat the sitting head of the Democratic Party
Lmao Ukraine is about to become devoid of birds
Any radar sensitive enough to pick up drones is going to have an insane number of false positives
Ukraine literally praises the Chinese dual-use items that they received (drones, etc.) and calls them far superior to Western equivalents.
The problem is that if China were to pull out of trading with parties of the conflict, it would also deny Ukraine from much-needed dual-use equipment.
Meanwhile, Russia? They’ve spent decades figuring out how to skirt sanctions and their allies in Central Asia are more than happy to profit off of such dealings.
What exactly do you think exports are? A DJI drone is manufactured in China. If it’s bought through Amazon or Alibaba and shipped to Ukraine, that’s classified as an export. The public market is how imports and exports happen.
It’s a concern because Putin, Xi, Khamenei, Kim… They’re all well-spoken. They’re all quick-witted.
What kind of message does that send would-be American allies in Asia, in the Middle East, in Africa, in South America?
Run Harris. Run Newsom. Run Obama. Run Kennedy. Hell, run Gore.
There’s so many options here. This is the DNC’s election to lose.
His speech impediment is bullshit. Where was it when he was Obama’s VP? Where was it in the Senate?
Were you and I watching the same presser? He had moments of brilliance, but his fumbles were apparent throughout the night.
Google has had suicides, but no prevention schemes
The real answer is that the Detroit car factories aren’t tall enough to kill anyone. People pick more practical locations like Hudson Yards or the Golden Gate Bridge.
Google isn’t the equivalent to Foxconn. It would be more like Ford or some Detroit automaker.
Yeah some people are dying lmao
China just straight up doesn’t prosecute if they don’t have to, and when they do it’s typically following a civil law system that’s generally easier to prosecute than common law. It’s the same reason why Japan has a prosecution success rate of over 99.8%.
Japan is not a serious country
Only 10 US states have banned child marriage.
ITS HER TURN
Being wealthy in the US/UK/Canada is so much better than being rich in China because the marginal advantage is substantially larger
In China? You still take the train. Transit is probably still faster than driving. Your food expenses don’t scale as fast because cheap food isn’t made of garbage. You already likely own a home. You probably come from a tier 1/2 city, so traveling domestically is cheap. Your kid still has to grind for gaokao.
In the US? You fly business. You drive around in your S Class. You can bribe infinite extracurriculars for your kid to get into a top university. You basically never have to interact with anyone in the lower 90% of incomes, and you don’t need to be THAT wealthy to do so.
Does it sound like a suppressed .22 to anyone else?
