Wagner group doesn't exist in Russia after their failed coup...
Who are these young people who care what kid Rock of all peopel says?
They don't actually care. Trump banned bump-stocks and they didn't care. As long as they feel like the leader is on their side, policy doesn't matter.
They have no hope for the RNC, they are losing hope in the DNC. That's the difference.
Why would they take the offer then return home.
Russian internal politics is a heaven for MAGA types.
The only reason those shitstain Republican Senators voted no was because they knew it would pass without their support and so they could point fingers and say "DERMERCREATS WAR!".
And how does this excuse the Democrats for voting yes in support of funding genocide? They could have all voted no and called it the Republican war, right?
They're all equally complicit. I'm all for protests for Gaza, but saying the Democrats have anything more to do with it than Republicans
I agree and I never said that the Democrats were more culpable, just that they are culpable.
Anywhere you find a big group of at least quasi intelligent people discussing things you'll find that the Republicans aren't a popular group
Except I never defended the Republicans. I stated an objective fact that the Democrats are funding the genocide.
Since when is being anti-genocide a Republican stance, as you said above, they are just as culpable.
But Blue MAGA says if you aren't an unquestioning supporter of whatever Dems do, even if it's genocide, then you are an evil outsider.
Edit: also I'm pretty sure those Republicans voted no more because of the part that would go to Ukraine. They gladly support the genocide publicly and don't try to paint it as a democrat project afaik.
No. The ROC has no more of a claim to be Chinas rightful ruler than the PRC does, except the PRC won the mainland.
Sure the KMT led by Sun Yat-sen overthrew the Monarchy, through revolution under a united nationalist front and formed the ROC.
But you can't ignore the decades after, during which a civil war and literally WW2 happened (which stopped the civil war).
During this time the KMT turned radically to the right under the leadership of Chiang Kai-Shek which led to a massive rift within China.
The CPC grew massively during the war and many of the left wing of the KMT sided with them.
The CPC carried out their own revolution against the current KMT and took control of the entire mainland while the KMT held only Taiwan (and carried out a little ethnic cleansing see: white terror).
The CPC then formed the official government of the PRC and was internationally recognized as the ruler of China, while the ROC continued to hold it's islands and claim rightful ruler over the mainland launching multiple attacks, by this time it was over, even the United States who had strongly supported the KMT over the CPC had no choice but to declare the PRC the rightful ruler of China.
So the KMT has a claim to rule all of China in the same sense that a Qing descendant would. They uses to rule sure, but they lost the revolution and their still existing doesn't grant them any power or recognition.
It's not even true. Winnie the Pooh is factually not banned in China. The Wikipedia sources a BBC article, which also provides no proof of the censorship, and then goes on to state.
"Despite the censorship, there is no general ban on books and toys depicting Winnie-the-Pooh in China; two Winnie-the-Pooh-themed rides still operate in Shanghai Disneyland.[2][3]"
No. Winnie the Pooh isn't banned in China at all, even online. If someone uses Winnie the Pooh as a racist caricature, then yes that specific post will often times be removed.
How you people constantly pretend to not see the racism is beyond me. What's is the connection from xi to Pooh? Because I'm always told "he looks just like him" which is 1: untrue and 2: just racist (chubby and yellow bear with small eyes looks just like Asian man...? Yeah no racism there!!)
Imagine if it was a thing to use King Kong to represent Obama and the people using It's excuse was "it looks just like him!". Would you defend it? It's extremely racist.
Racism against Asians is just widely accepted for some reason.
Yes, I believe that. Because it's true.
What specifically did I say that isn't an objectively true fact and is hard for you to accept someone believing?
Does the international community not recognize Taiwan as a part of China?
Was Ukraine an internationally* recognized part of Russia?
Did Donbas not vote to secede from Ukraine prior to the invasion?
Did Ukraine not say no, then Russia use that as an excuse for their "special operations"?
Edit* internationally autocorrected to intentionally.
Ukraine isn't an internationally recognized part of Russia for which all nations agree is and always was part of Russia...
If Taiwan is Donbas, China is Ukraine.
Donbas voted to secede and Ukraine said no so Russia invaded.
If Taiwan tries to secede and China says no... hopefully the US doesn't pull a Russia.
The Taiwan government isn't trying to unify the "two Chinas" anymore as Chiang Kai-shek and Sun Li-Jen have been dead a long while. The PLA or what's left of it does not want control over mainland China and the current ruling Taiwanese government are happy to create 60% of the worlds super conductors.
This is actually more likely to ignite China into re-entegrating Taiwan than if they wanted all of China as it directly goes against the "one China principle" which every country has agreed, China is one and Taiwan is a part of China.
This is saber rattling from war hawks in the Pentagon and a distraction from Pooh Bear's own internal problems. Nobody wants war in Taiwan most of all the Chinese.
Ignoring the racism...yes, China has been very clear they don't wish to use their military for unnecessary reasons, including in the reunification, and they would rather build their country. This is evidenced by their lack of wars, unfortunately, some other countries with long histories of foreign interventionism are knocking at their doorstep.
This is important because not everyone has died and when this is over they will need a place to return to live (inshallah). If there are no homes, schools, or hospitals in Gaza...what are gazans to do? (Infrastructure is important, even though yes obviously a building is far less important than even a single life)
(Edit)
A vote for Claudia is not a vote for Trump just like it's not a vote for Kamala.
A Trump voter could just as easily say they're helping Kamala get elected, and it's be a lie then too.
PSL is literally always on the ground doing something. If you see them only every 4 years, then you're showing how often YOU come around.
It's because Kamala has been vocally pro-israel genocide, even if you did absolve her of the wrongs of the Biden administration.
Yes, Democrats in congress.

The funding passed with the support of 46 Democrats, 31 Republicans and 2 independents, following hours of speeches by senators. Two Democrats, 15 Republicans and one independent opposed it. Three GOP senators — Rand Paul of Kentucky, Tim Scott of South Carolina and Tommy Tuberville of Alabama — didn’t vote.
Edit: is this secretly a DNC/Blue Maga community or something lmfao
It's an objective fact that the Democrats are heavily in favour of continuing the Israeli genocide.
So immediately start up multiple encampments and make sure to wear a mask (and other precautions) to hide your identity?
I didn't know Jill Stein was anti-nato as well...she's really tryna earn my vote huh
