You mean the area off the coast of mainland China?

Ad hominem
You argue in bad faith
Get bent
This is completely empty
Spy hunting
The idea that Trump was Putin’s sycophant flies in the face of the fact no US president ever authorized weapons to Ukraine until Trump did, and that is directly against the interests of Russia. Yes, Trump then played politics with those weapons for corrupt reasons, but the idea that Trump just did whatever was best for Putin is just simply untrue. Obama explicitly said that sending weapons to Ukraine would provoke Russia, but Trump had no issues with it.
Given how nuclear plants are used in warfare, this might be the right move
Libs, always asking others to make their lives easier. If you care enough about Taiwan to argue about it online, but you don’t care enough to look up their parties and their institutions at even a cursory level, then maybe you can understand why the the left is constantly trying to throw you out of discourse spaces. You’re lazy, entitled, ignorant, confident, and self-righteous. It’s a disgusting combination.
The USA has been letting Haiti burn for decades. It’s not an alternative, it’s the status quo of US intervention. The alternative is intervention by BRICS countries, but the USA would never allow it because of their blood thirsty Monroe Doctrine
Just to be clear, Taiwan IS NOT ethnically distinct from mainland China while Ukraine IS ethnically distinct from Russia.
You know what’s funny? Purge is an English word.
When has that ever been reported. There has been reports of drones hitting deep into Russian territory for years now. Are you making shit up again so you can argue against it?
It’s a deliberate choice by the USA to send these weapons. The USA should be condemned for it.
Same day article as “can’t find money to fix 5000 bridges on the autobahn because too much debt”
Emotionally yes. Materially, I don’t see how the French pull it off.
I think the difference today is that French has a far lesser chance of getting it’s access back today than at any prior time in the last 500 years
You said “Russia is authoritarian like the Republicans”, you then said “I agree the Democrats’ prosecution of the genocide in Palestine is authoritarian” but you fail to see that this means “Russia is authoritarian like the Democrats”.
You seem to think that authoritarianism is somehow a special case of governance, that there are authoritarian states and leaders and non-authoritarian states and leaders. However, the analysis by historians shows us that this is not true. Literally every piece of evidence you can provide to apply the term “authoritarian” to one state can be applied to all states throughout history. Same goes for state leaders.
Russia is no more or less authoritarian than the USA, UK, France, Spain, Australia, Canada, Vietnam, China, Japan, Korea, US Korea, Mexico, Cuba, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Haiti, South Africa, Nigeria, Niger, Kenya, Turkey, Greece, India, Georgia, etc etc etc.
It’s a useless term that conveys only your lack of understanding and propagandized world view. It does not convey any information about the actual world, only about the paucity of your awareness and critical thinking.
Uhhh. So either bloody gold rush mentality or USA cracking that whip, eh?
It would be awesome if Taiwan were rid of the dominance of the Han Chinese and recognized as an aboriginal nation-state led predominantly by the aboriginals. Unfortunately, just like the KMT, the West would ensure that such a state would be part of the fascist empire and used against China regardless of the will of the aboriginal peoples. Maybe someday Taiwan can be decolonized, but not until the European empire ends. Decolonization before that will end up like decolonization of Africa did - with European capture, counter-revolution, and the building of imperial military extensions.
You will never understand why every US president since the Chinese civil war has said Taiwan is not a separate country? You will never understand why every year more nations drop the historical alignment with the former fascist dictatorship of the civil war’s losers to the current internationally recognized government of China? You will never understand something that has been understood for literally 70 years?
Sounds like a skill issue.
So you’re saying that the Arab League did not make this statement or that there are facts missing from the article?
