okay.
I hope you enjoyed your visit. 🙂
I suppose I’m a left-of-center liberal who flirts w/ anarchism & libertarianism. Thr’s a lot of alt, electronic, exp’tal, & “world” music I like. I’m working on fan-fix-tion for The Handmaid’s Tale and Star Trek.

mostly, presumably, though also some folks in Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, and maybe even a few Western Universities.
Have you been there?
Have you been there, anon?
Since the adoption of the 2008 constitution citizens and anyone wishing to become a citizens are required by law to nominally follow Sunni Islam[176] which would make Maldives a 100% Muslim country in theory.
This is Lemmy: the Shariah law as practiced by the Maldives doesn’t apply here,
nor did the Maldives fight a war for its very existence on the first day of its independence.
This evil man seems to be admired by some.
not all who oppose Israel’s actions regarding Gaza—the mass murder, the genocide, if you will—are good.
Are they using helium?
If so then re-use the helium.
not the ones who didn’t steal land or buy stolen land.
Though that might apply to those in Manhattan, California, and Australia.
good point.
though I think they were a little bit more socialist in the earlier years.
I don’t like any of them.
might as well throw this in:
By the early 1970s, however, Albanian disagreements with certain aspects of Chinese policy deepened as the visit of Nixon to China along with the Chinese announcement of the “Three Worlds Theory” produced strong apprehension in Albania’s leadership under Enver Hoxha. Hoxha saw in these events an emerging Chinese alliance with American imperialism and abandonment of proletarian internationalism.
The might have been the reasons, or some of the significant reasons, for the protest but I don’t think Mao would have tolerated them more than did Deng.
not if they stole it.
He’s not an ordinary old fuck.
He’s been helping pro-Isreal propaganda for decades—a little like George Galloway at times.
Presumably,
Mao self-identified as a Communist (or something like it) and is today defended by such.
Deng self-identified as a Communist (or something like it) and is today defended by such (at least by many Chinese).
Palestinians, Gazans, and Jews were victims of the Crusaders.
I support forcing their soldiers out.
Yeah.
Mosaddegh was overthrown in 1953 because of US and UK, and about 25 years later, Iran became an Islamic theocracy, which has lasted for about 45 years and seems will continue into its 6th decade.
Well done, America-haters.
I just pulled this out from WP:
(my bold)
Red August (simplified Chinese: 红八月; traditional Chinese: 紅八月; pinyin: Hóng Bāyuè) is a term used to indicate a period of political violence and massacres in Beijing beginning in August 1966, during the Cultural Revolution.[1][2][3] According to official statistics published in 1980 after the end of the Cultural Revolution, Red Guards in Beijing killed a total of 1,772 people during Red August, while 33,695 homes were ransacked and 85,196 families were forcibly displaced.[1][4][5] However, according to official statistics published in November 1985, the number of deaths in Beijing during Red August was 10,275.[5][6][7]
This was back in Mao’s time.
It seems that Communism killed those Chinese people.
I figured they died because they protested in a Communist dictatorship.
Medvedev’s drinking again?
Why do I have to agree with or work with Hamas to want a Palestinian State?
I’m not.
That old fuck has been saying stuff like this for decades.
The Jewish presence in Palestine is older than the Muslim.
For that matter, those in the Maldives were Buddhists before they became Muslim.
Instead of blaming the victims of European antisemitism which kind of necessitated Zionism, you might wag your finger at Europe too for this.
