Sure it is buddy. Keep rejecting the truth in favor of what the party tells you, works out so well. It is after all their most important demand.

All Chinese companies, public or private, are required to have worker democracy. They have better required benefits than I do in the US, including maternity care, sick time, overtime pay, and a lower retirement age. If you support not trading with the US and India at all, I will acknowledge your consistency, but it seems to me that it’s likely you’re operating off of outdated information.
Sounds like you’re a troglodyte genocide apologist to me. Resistance to occupation and siege is legal under international law, including through force of arms.
Do Visa, Mastercard, etc, not charge transaction fees in Europe? The only place I’ve been where there’s no transaction fees paid by the vendor is China.
Complete bullshit. I saw multiple when I was there, and some of the oldest mosques in the world are in China, dating back to at least 800AD
The question is foolish and reflects a complete lack of knowledge on the subject.
Taiwan is recognized as part of China by the majority of countries in the world, Including the US.
I’m not in tech, I’m in manufacturing, and I’ve become trapped in my job because wages in the industry have gone down by about 10% in the last year. Thankfully I’m grandfathered in from the relatively high wage I got in the post covid wage rises, but my raises have been sub inflation two years in a row. Even going by the entirely bullshit official government inflation numbers, my real wage has gone down since I started.
Prices on housing and food are so sky high, that I can’t even get approved for a one bedroom apartment or studio despite making $60k, because they’re charging 55% of my after tax wage per month. I don’t live on the coasts, either. The job I came from before this was paying me $21/hr, and is now offering $16/hr, which is literally less than Taco Bell and just above minimum wage. Food and other transient monthly costs are so high now that after feeding my family and paying my bills, I’ll be able to save about $3k this year, down from 8.5k last year.
I heard they’re having to hire retired people for security for the Olympics because all the unions are boycotting them over the retirement law macron pushed through. There’s also the fact that the river the Olympians are supposed to swim in is dirty and polluted. Also major plans for labor actions to shut down the airports and other places. They’re throwing students out of student housing to house the athletes. The people who are supposed to make the medals are on strike, so there will be no medals for the athletes. They’re trying to get students to drive the subways because the subway workers are planning on striking. It’s going to be a shitshow, and no one should go and support the Olympic Games unless they plan on being stuck in Paris.
Better than mine haha
That doesn’t rhyme with how many kids did you kill today though, loses some of its catchiness.
Hey hey genocide Joe, how many kids did you kill, do you know?
It’s not just Netanyahu, it’s most of the government. Even the majority of Israeli citizens support the “war”, and are only protesting because they haven’t returned the hostages yet.
I’ve been thinking of how we could revive the “Hey, Hey LBJ, how many kids did you kill today” chant but with Biden, and your comment reminded me to think more on it.
Second that, I just checked my private tracker for paw patrol and there’s 57 seeders on a complete series torrent, 279 on the 2021 movie, and 650 on the 2023 movie. I’ve never seen any of them, so I can’t comment on that aspect, but private trackers are the way to go. Id rather give up torrenting if I lost access than go back to public trackers.
China is probably the one place that can lay claim to that particular tradition being ancient. They go hard for spring festival.
Every instance of someone taking a company to court over 996 has resulted in them winning. Those choosing not to do so are doing exactly that, choosing not to. In my experience, it’s usually because they’re already well-paid and they get multiple hours long breaks anyway, so they end up working about 8 hours a day.
It is a crime, a crime against humanity. It’s just not a crime recognized in most legal systems.
I swam naked in the fountain at our towns courthouse as a child, and it was fine. You’re weird and creepy.
