Most disliked country in each nation
  • Is there an obvious reason the countries in eastern Africa hate China (assuming the poll is at all accurate or good, with good questions, accurate translations, and representative people filled out etc)? Don't really know enough about the area and people. Left over colonial stuff and western propaganda(jeans and Marvel films...)? Chinese industry? Or maybe just why is there a more positive perception of USA and don't really dislike China?

    I think I found the original polls, and it says USA hates Russia more (have the most negative perception) and same with a lot of these other countries. Maybe they used a different question or survey to make this though? Questionnaire I am looking at doesn't ask about perception of Israel for example so guessing different, but you would expect some more agreement in answers if it was a useful poll.

  • Xi Jinping to meet Biden in San Francisco on Wednesday
  • SF cleaning up their house before guests come over to stay... I would love to see chinese media(or documentary or something) going to SF and on one street seeing a bunch of luxery cars, fancy dressed people, expensive ass restaurants and literally next street over bunch of homeless struggling to survive and do some story... maybe even pull some "fake and dystopian city"(like America loves to do with China and DPRK) stuff before and after the "clean up"

  • It’s over. China has fallen
  • Think you still will be using scihub. Unless I am missing something (or only correct inside China or need an account) it seems like "just another" aggregator (which is useful, don't get me wrong) and doesn't really make anything available that wasn't already open access. Although being able to focus on some Chinese output, like thesis, is nice and things like that might get missed by other services (idk)

  • Vote blue no matter who they genocide outside the US.
  • This reminds me of the famous "paper tiger" Strong-Mao interview I recently read(short read btw, like a page or two and honestly lots of parallels to the current Palestine/Israel+USA can be made).

    If the "paper tiger" concept is useful and general, which I am not sure it is tbh, certainly dangling the threat of removing/lessening trans rights (of imperial core people) at the expense of many thousands of Palestinians lives is a type of "paper tiger" pointed inward(Mao's case seems way more dire, one of the poorest most exploited countries in a war with US supporting one side and the fear of nuclear weapons is in the air... huh sounds a little like Palestine/Israel). Trans rights are not given by a couple of politicians, they are decided and fought for by the people as pretty much all rights have. People should be a little more brave, and not be put into a box of "we got to vote blue or else our rights" and maybe that isn't the way to get trans rights and maybe we can get both trans rights and not genocide Palestinians at the same time...
