Twenty dollars, same as in town.

It’s not so easy. Usually the job is to convince the wealthy to fund your political career over decades, but Trump’s fame & fortune and his pitch to be different from the usual politicians allowed him to cut the line.

Sure, but cyanobacteria are still the terraformation GOAT.

You may consider us gatekeepers and leeches, but we prefer the term housing provider.

You think I’m joking?

I am not joking.

Imperialism and anti-imperialism are exactly the same. You fool; you absolute buffoon.

As if homophobic insults are okay.

Liberals’ thought-terminating cliché for everything.
Yes, two things can be true, but so can one or the other thing or no things, so you haven’t actually said anything.

Do friends contradict themselves?
Very well then they contradict themselves,
(They are large, they contain multitudes.)

Venezuela wasn’t and isn’t occupied.

We haven’t looked past the Uyghurs, actually. In fact we’ve looked very closely.

Previously:

The US tried to foment division in China by funding and organizing Salafi terrorist into Xinjiang, and once its efforts failed, it made lemonade out of its lemon by concocting and promoting a genocide narrative.

The only countries pushing this narrative are the “always the same map” imperial core countries, which just so happen to be largely the same ones supporting Israel’s genocide.

Almost no predominantly-Muslim country buys the Uyghur genocide narrative, because they know it’s bullshit, because they talked to the Uyghurs themselves.

Genocide is more than just killing, it’s the deliberate destruction of a people including its culture and institutions.

(a) Show me the Uyghur bodies

(b) Show me the serious bodily or mental harm

(c) Show me the conditions calculated to bring about physical destruction in whole or in part

(d) Show me the measures intended to prevent births within the group

In accordance with China’s affirmative action policies towards ethnic minorities, all non-Han ethnic groups were subject to different laws and were usually allowed to have two children in urban areas, and three or four in rural areas.

(e) Show me the forcible transfer of children from one group to another group

violent incidents in East Turkestan

I wonder where those Salafi terrorists came from? Oh right: the US, UK, and Israel organized, funded, and trained them, as they did Al Qaeda and the various flavors of ISIS/ISIL, including the “moderate rebels” that just took over Syria.

It’s barbaric: they have to pay taxes!

I find [F.D Signifier] useful in describing the US black experience, but I don’t look to him outside of that. He was a lib when his show started, and has moved a little leftward since.

Almost none of us have suffrage in Maine, yet there’s so much ado about this ex-marine/ex-Blackwater mercenary “progressive,” who spent 13 years of his adult life wreaking havoc in Western & Central Asia for US empire.

It’s not new; it’s over 30 years old.
