well China has many temporary migrant workers, but accepts very few permanent immigrants. only about 0.1% of china's population are immigrants; lower than almost all other countries in the world

Wow just horrifying. First Columbia, now Israel? Why haven't Israeli officials rounded up or deported back to Europe all these 100,000 HAMAS agents? Sounds to me their government is complicit in terrorism
If we can cut aid to American universities for allowing these type of vile displays of antisemitism, surely, we can cut aid to an American vassal over the same. Someone get the POTUS on this
Ladies, it gay to have curly hair?

-
hellbent on claiming her country isn't systemically racist
-
says black people are manipulated by the left
-
whines about identity politics while her whole brand is leveraging her identity as a black woman to give weight to conservative talking points
-
uses culture war buzzwords like CRT every 2 seconds
the average english speaker doesn't know half the words of the english language
So to some countries, it'll show "Gulf of America", "Gulf of Mexico", or even "Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)". This is just based on what they perceive to be the most popular politics are in that particular country/government
if that were the case it'd say "Gulf of Mexico" throughout latin america. but they've set it to include both names in every country besides the US and Mexico
also i have a hard time thinking of a country/govt where the popular politics would have any support for including anything but the name it's had since the 1500s. maybe far-right america stans like poland and hungary?

My East German grandma mailed us a bunch of her and my late grandpa's DDR memorabilia 💪

love my Oma, she's turning 90 next week (born 1934!) and was the first person I came out as bi to. Defo hanging one or two of these up in my dorm
Whenever people imply communism = lack of incentive for human greatness, I think about how my grandparents had lower class parents and were extremely poor (even starving) in their post-war childhood, but ended up leading pretty impressive lives, despite knowing they wouldn't live much above the material reality of their neighbors for it.
My grandma was an interior architect and my grandpa an astrophysics professor and professional photographer. Both were gymnasts in their 20's (my grandpa has a couple medals below). They didn't do any of that shit for luxury, they figured they'd lead a modest life in the standard plattenblau housing block as the other working people of their town (small but cute and cozy apartment, I was there not too long ago), and that's what they wanted.
They never needed to drive a car in their lives, and often visited countries across the Eastern Bloc by bike/public transit. My grandma always had a thing for making fruit preserves and cool pottery (still killing it), and my grandpa for art from wood carving (he was also a mountain climber). They had a nice community garden they always tended to too. It's a beautiful town with a lot to see, honestly can't wait to visit again
My mom was 19 when the Berlin Wall fell. She studied english abroad when everything went to shit under capitalism. Ended up moving to the US just because she met my dad. Usually when she tells an American she grew up in the DDR, they look all shocked and ask some insane shit like if she was starving to death, or if she knew anyone who was shot and killed trying to climb the wall (💀⁉️). Certainly no one was starving by the 70s/80s. My mom and all her friends and acquaintances had great childhoods. She had a small town, middle of nowhere school system that pushed sports, music, art, multilingualism, sciences, etc. on her heavily (when I did track and field in high school she always told me how her school's facility was 10x better lmao). The DDR fostered genuine human greatness. But ig they didn't have bananas at grocery stores and a hundred car brands like the west 🤷♂️
Hunger Games is about revolutionary anti-imperial class struggle
George Lucas said the Empire is inspired by America and the Rebels by the Viet Minh
The Matrix was created by a trans woman and at least partly an allegory for being trans
Divergent is shitty lib fanfiction but very obviously anti-conservative
Alan Moore was a communist or anarchist
wow these movies are just like January 6th when we resisted communism by smearing our shit on the capitol walls!! 
Heard My Chemical Romance was created after witnessing 9/11, so I looked up the band's political beliefs and came across this thread about Frank Iero
he's literally so confusing. remember a few years ago when he had a 'don't tread on me flag' on his basement wall? he also was totally voting for bernie sanders. ... when blm movement got its biggest attention in 2020 he published some shitty depoliticizing note. its one of the worst notes i've read back then
He's definitely not a right winger. Maybe moderate leftist. Not everyone needs to fit into a neat little box.
He is an "Italian American" style leftist from NJ. Definitely socially progressive and left of center on social issues, but still sees value in some traditions. It makes sense if you know anyone from New Jersey
