What do you expect from the same country that thinks hamas-red-triangle means "evil antisemitic hate symbol!!"

It's like Germany learned nothing from the last century and is still trying its hardest to be on the wrong side of history.

The thing you're forgetting though is that Kamala is ALSO a shitty candidate like Hillary and Biden was.

As others have already pointed out, she is the only candidate who polled worse than Biden against Trump. She's nowhere near the level of charm and charisma Obama was.

At least half the country thinks she's a Cultural Marxist that will destroy America (I wish). And her fanbase is nearly identical to Hillary's was (suburbanite wine moms).

Of course her being younger, not part of any political dynasty, and also actually non-White could tip the scales in her favour. But we'll see.

So the US gets all the greedy, self-centred Capitalists from China, while China gets all the rational, forward-thinking Scientists and Academics from the US? Cool.

The Forest.

Peaceful. Quiet. No people to bother me (great for Introverts). A place to get good sleep. Fresh locally sourced food. Perfect weather.

My kind of escape from this hell world.

There's still people on the Steam Forums and Reddit trying to rally people to get the Arrowhead Community Managers (at least one of which is Transgender) fired.

This is such a stupid "protest" largely driven by Chud G*mers who couldn't read the fine text of a game they bought, and now are trying to turn an inconvenient account requirement into GamerGate 2.0.

The sooner anything about this 'ironic' Fascist video game gets off my social media the better.

According to this article China makes up 27% of Intel's revenue (its SINGLE biggest market) and 15% of AMD's revenue (its third largest). Will be interesting to see how badly this will affect the bottom line of both companies in the coming years.

Considering the US already bans Nvidia and AMD from selling their high-end GPUs to China, this ban was going to happen sooner or later. China just decided to pre-emptively do it so they can plan ahead for the phase-out as opposed to being caught off guard.

China leading a potential Linux revolution on the global tech industry would be glorious to see.

Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom. The heart scene scarred the shit out of me as a kid.

Well, at least this one got the element-bending and the names right. Hopefully the next live action will get the script right.

Further proof that Tankie is just the liberal version of "SJW" or "Woke"; a meaningless buzzword to describe anything left of them.

I would argue Palestine is part of the war phase, and they'll probs be a third extension opening up in the next couple of years (Taiwan? Korea? India?).

The famine will be Climate Change, or a mass disruption to the global food chain caused by the war horseman.

Death will be posadist-nuke

The zionist entity is not a Jewish colonial project, but an Anglo colonial project.

Isn't this flat out false? My understanding of Zionism is based on the ideas of Theodore Herzl; that Israel was always meant to be a national, secular homeland for Jewish people. Fyi, this is the guy who is regarded as the 'Father of Zionism' by every Israeli leader ever and who organized the world's first Zionist Congress. Yes Herzl, as a Jew living in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, was inspired by and wanted to employ Anglo/ European colonial methods to achieve this goal (Badempanada did a wonderful video on this btw), but to claim that Zionism was created solely by the British and was never spearheaded by Ashkenazi Jews trying to escape persecution in Europe is ignoring the historical materialist basis of Zionism and frankly strips Jewish people of having any agency over their actions or fate.

P.S: I am not trying to say Jewish people collectively support Zionism, there were/ are many Jews in the past and today who oppose Zionism on the basis of being anti-colonialist, anti-nationalist, or on a religious basis. However, I felt OP was portraying Zionism as something completely separate from the Jewish identity and history, and instead as something invented by Western Empires to divide and conquer the Middle East using guilt over historical anti-semitism as a justification, which is flat out false.
