The US was feining to drop a nuke in every country they invaded and failed to take over. The nukes in Japan were supposed to be a warning to the Soviets and the rest of the world of who runs the world order now, and the Soviets’ advancement in nuclear technology prevented that from happening, at least for a good while. The overt and covert barbarity shown by the US in subsequent operations showed that it had no qualms about adding more to the list of 200,000.
To be fair, a lot of Temu and Aliexpress shit is just landfill trash pushed by tiktok and gadget youtube channels. But there are a lot of good stuff on Ali, but those things aren’t exactly pushing the economic levers like the more useless stuff.
It’s always jarring to see the west accuse China of being bloodthirsty and warmongering, but then you look at their media and it’s just “we hope to achieve win-win business opportunities with the west and minimize conflict that initiated the cold war.”
Then you look at the peaceful, democracy loving leader of the free world, and every article is “we must kill the oriental child before the hive mind develops and takes away our freedom. It is the only way to contain the confucian menace.”

Sorry boss. They Havana syndromed my computer
I mean this is how my military simulation concluded. Why would Paradox lie?
Can they even stage a coup against him? The right wing is ecstatic with the state of the war, and the liberals are mad he isn’t killing nicely. Not sure the latter faction has enough political capital to get anyone on their side.

Why is that dude running away with the papers as if there’s only a single copy and people can’t just reprint it lol
Conservatives like to act smug about how the luny lefties are always so angry, so violent, while conservatives are enjoying tranquility. But the truth is they’re largely content with the status quo of real life, so they’re not stressed about it. The only thing left to focus on is their treats because that’s where things are “different”.
Carbon credits is one of the funniest concepts ever. Like how anybody can take the “””market””” seriously after learning of such thing deserves to get their heads smashed in. Such a cartoonishly stupid scam but yet somehow managed to trick rubes into thinking it’ll save them from disaster if companies just traded permission slips back and forth
The UK can’t even keep a leader for more than a couple years lol
