Hey, guess what? Accusing people of being shills doesn’t actually fix any of the Democrats’ problems.
I’m giving up on Lemmy. Too many toxic users. Too many bad mods who fail to remove the toxicity. And toxicity seems to be part of the culture here, judging from how everyone acts like it’s normal. Also, why is everyone a programmer?

No, but she does seem to be the president of Israel’s cheer squad.
The forecast isn’t a poll. 538 analyzes data from polls to create their forecast.
If you don’t want to read the article, you could at least read the headline, which is also the title of this lemmy post that you’re commenting on right now. Look at the top of your screen. It says “forecast”.
Arab-Americans in Michigan care, and it’s going to cost Harris Michigan.
Harris’s lack of action on Gaza is the reason she’s sinking in the forecasts.
She should help Gaza to help herself, if for no other reason.
Russia and the CCP?
Do I get paid twice?
Edit: Busted!
What does “Busted” mean? Do you think you’re on an episode of Mythbusters.
Anecdotes are not data. People’s social circles are often echo chambers that don’t reflect the entire population.
the only reason the old constitution hasn’t been amended is because China regularly threatens to start a full scale war if there’s any amendment to reflect the current reality
What makes you think that’s “the only reason”? Because some people on reddit said so?
It’s a lovely place and they’re a lovely people.
That’s the most ignorant thing I’ve ever heard in my life.
But it’s true.
No, of course they don’t have expansionist ambitions, because they consider a large part of Siberia theirs, including Primosky Krai which was ceded by the Qing
This article was literally about China not wanting Primosky Krai, and the president of Taiwan asking why.
You didn’t read the article, did you?
International waters or other countries waters are none of chinas business.
Someone upthread asked how China was blocked in, and I was helping to answer their question.
what’s your take on the massacre on Tianmen square and also the prosecution of the yughurs?
My take is you can’t spell either of them correctly.
My point is that the US has an unusually high degree of control over the waters near China’s coast.
The Opium wars were part of the century of humiliation.
In mainland China, the century of humiliation is considered to have ended in 1949 with the founding of the People’s Republic of China. In Taiwan, the century of humiliation is considered to have ended in 1945, when the ROC became a founding member of the United Nations with a permanent seat on the UN security council. (That seat was transferred to the PRC in 1971.)
Remember Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Philippines and Malaysia are US allies.
It’s a little more than just being allies.
The South Korean military is under US control. (South Korea has symbolic control during peace time, but “operational control” reverts to the US during wartime.) South Korea has been asking the US to give them operational control of their own army for decades, but the US has never done so.
And Japan does not have its own army. As per the US-Japan Security Treaty (which was forced on Japan after WWII), the US military is in charge of the defense of Japan. The US has more troops in Japan than in any other foreign country.
Maybe, but they don’t want any part of that “Han Motherland” you speak of.
I didn’t say anything about a Han Motherland, so I don’t know why you’re using quotation marks.
And Taiwan does desire the reunification of Han areas. Under the government of the ROC.
And the Viet Cong.
who has humiliated China for centuries
A century.
It was the century of humiliation. Not centuries of humiliation.
That’s a weird headline. Guam is part of the United States. It should say they plea to Washington.
You mean the only hope Israel has.
