that’s around when the U.S. line on China shifted from normalization into Cold War 2.0.

I’m surprised we’re low on alternative ideas lol. I’m just as curious what caused the peak as I am to what caused the drop. Maybe Cold War 2.0 mode was a reaction to the peak?

It’ll be interesting to see how the U.S. adaptations of The Three-Body Problem portray China.

I enjoyed Three-Body (2023), best case scenario would be Netflix make a faster paced version, worst (and most likely) scenario is you get a wacky caricature, like Wang Miao is a highschooler who has to defeat both the anti-Christ and overthrow the PRC before prom or w/e.

Download everything that would upset you if it were no longer available forever starting tomorrow.

Hey Mao Zedong, how come Stalin let’s you have 2 tiers?

i have good politics

Why not enact change locally in your community first

Then the government knows what I look like and will be able to plan around my existence. Most national security policies assume cartoonishly massive human waves coming out of nowhere are not possible. The element of surprise and the rush attack is key to victory. Revealing that I have this power without conquering the planet ensures instead that I get kidnapped and get experimented with in a secret bunker.

My biggest cost is rent, we can all sleep in a big-ass ratking, boys love threesomes without the trouble of figuring out who the third will be, AFAIK food costs scale in my favor if I got a second job and a third me for hobbies. We could claim to be twins but also rotate who’s running the of and faking vacation etc, produce higher quality content more often and charge more for it. and 4-100 mees for dumpster-diving/terrorism. Are there limits? Are the copies permanent? I’d like to replace the government of my country and the power seems OP as I could just copy up and annex everything in cartoonishly massive human waves.

IDK why’d you even bother with legal, it’s easy enough to rip mp3s out of any youtube video.

these are in my ~/.zshrc:

# download any video as mp3
# if video is chaptered, split each chapter into separate song files
alias yt-mp3='yt-dlp --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 --split-chapters --no-check-certificate'

If the US intervenes, any chances that China could back the other side?

Sign me up lol

I can’t wait for the kardashians to finally get cancelled, but might have to wait until after the Irish renunification tho

modern chromebooks are secretly linux under the hood and can run android/linux apps. you could also try remoting into a server for development, like over ssh/vim or via code-server.

Tupac was and Zagorath was a patsy.

But of course, if you define “genocide” as “thing that I’m willing to politically accept is a genocide”, it’s very easy to pretend someone isn’t a genocide denialist.

Aren’t you just doing the opposite [insert whatever logical fallacy]? The Holocaust is established historical fact with strong consensus among historians. Most of the other relevant alleged genocides that alleged tankies are allegedly denying have a much different degree of geopolitical contention and consensus.

What is the purpose of denying the Holocaust? Outside of the middle-east, it’s almost always a white supremacist or antisemitic agenda.

What is the purpose of denying the Uyghur genocide? There’s no equivalent incentive. Nobody is denying the Uyghur genocide on the basis of race ideology. The narrative of the Uyghur genocide is purely a construct of NATO Imperialist/Colonialist rhetoric to the tankies. They absolutely do not deny the genocide for the purpose of advancing a genocidal agenda.

Horseshoe theory does not apply.

how fervently the tankies deny genocides

wait did they deny the real ones or the made up ones?

lol you casually make racist “winnie the pooh” jokes like any random right winger.

I’m not going to look up the context, but if you’re randomly shouting “uhygur genocide” in a thread about UN voting to end US embargo on Cuba, US and Israel oppose, that specific type of whataboutism does sound suspicious like parroting nazi disinformation.
