I’m beginning to admire Greta Thunberg’s actions more and more by the day.

In all four circumstaces you have US meddling with democratic rule. Chechnya went from newly formed democracy to Russia-isolated dictatorship in a blink of an eye and immediately killed the regional Russian leader, which was absolutely not what people voted for. Georgia attacked a Russian majority area. Ukraine attacked the Russian majority area in the Donbass in 2015. Crimea did not get invaded. It declared independence, because their then current leader was unelected.

China liberated Tibet since 1951 by popular demand. People were sick and tired of their absolutely brutal theocratic leader enslaving most of their populace and invited China to take control over their nation as long as they could rule as an autonomous region. The Uyghurs are a majority group in autonomous Xinjiang. What’s a minority is the ISIS-affiliated terrorist group that want a theocratic state. The South China sea was agreed upon during world war II. The US now denies that claim, because it is being a sore loser as the communist party has practically won the civil war.

The US has invaded Iraq, killed over a million people based on a complete and total lie. The US invaded Afghanistan to find a terrorist. He wasn’t there. The US invaded Libya, because they didn’t like the way Ghadaffi ran his country. The US plotted coups in every Arab nation and then called that “the Arab spring”, because they weren’t considered loyal enough to the US empire.
The US is being a sore loser protecting the Chinese Republicans that fled to Taiwan, because the communist party has practically won the civil war. The US is starting a war with Venezuela based on lies of drug trafficking, but recently being more honest that it simply wants to destroy that nation so that they can steal all of its oil.

One is not like the other two.

Hardly. You can’t just claim that because you only recognized for example the confederate states as the true United States during the civil war, that after the civil war is lost, that the Florida keys should now go to Cuba and then help the confederates to flee to Peurto Rico and declare that to be it’s own country.

This counts only if the US does it. If it was China, it would count as “a violation of the rules based global order”

I see a lot of “camera’s in their bedroom” arguments.
That’s a bit unfair, because the Indian government doesn’t have camera’s installed in your bedroom.

May I instead suggest to Indians to buy Huawei/ZTE phones, routers or camera’s in your own bedroom that point outside to public places?
I mean the public has nothing to hide right?
Right?

Does it involve a very large razor blade?
I’m trying to keep my head on this.

I’m more surprised about how the majority of EU true believers aren’t turning their guns against the US, but instead go into full imperial lackey for the US and see nothing wrong with that, but see everything wrong with standing up against it.

China is currently at a position of strength equal to the US towards the Soviet Union during the 1980s and the only regions in the world right now that are slowly considering China their friend is China, now including Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The US is currently threatening the whole world to ram their fists through everyone’s faces and people are still praising it.

“The only way to stop a school shooter is with another school shooter.” - Anglo-American proverb

Hey, that’s not nice to falsely name someone’s country!
Be a gentleman, apologize and use the correct name for it:
KKKlanada.

People “want Ukraine to fail so badly” and therefore celebrating negative press, because IT IS failing so badly. And for some, like me, this was clear from day one, that is to say 22nd February 2014. And it was clear from the get go that it didn’t even stand a remote chance by 2022, despite heavy weapons support from NATO, which means, NATO is now failing badly as well.
And I’m part of those nations so I’m not happy about seeing my nation’s economy fail and keep failing worse and worse, while everyone here is still heading West while it should be looking East if it wants economic progress.
In fact, I’d argue that even Russia is still looking way too much Westwards.
The global pace of cultural change towards socialism at this moment is at a snail’s pace while economically socialist China has already won hands down and is only advancing further at an accelerating rapid pace while even it’s neighbors are pretending that this is some kind of fluke that will magically disappear and they can just ignore it and even aim for further capitalism.
It’s complete madness.

This is utter destruction for Ukraine and be extremely costly for the EU, the UK and to a lesser extend the US.
And it’s not even the only mistake we’re making in the EU, because we’re currently making costly mistake after costly mistake.
And the longer you’re losing touch with reality, the harder and faster reality will catch up with you.

It happened in Hong Kong and it will happen in Ukraine too.

And in a few years we’ll be seeing countries turn around towards socialism with Chinese characteristics, because the China’s success isn’t going to be isolated for much longer.

The Anglos are after the indigenous first nations North American resources as well, so it’s no surprise

Op de eerste plaats staat ‘zoute krakelingen’, maar die zijn volgens mij Duits. Dan komt salmiak en daarna dubbel zout. Als ik zin heb in iets minder hardcores, dan gaat mijn voorkeur uit naar zoet en zacht.

Trouwens, Nederlands is niet mijn moedertaal, dus vertel me alsjeblieft als ik fouten heb gemaakt en waar 😄

This also shows that the African continent is going through a giant economic boom.

She’s the worst nobel peace prize winner ever.
It’s the equivalent of giving Hitler the prize one day before invading Poland.

The only way this can be somewhat redeemed is if Trump forces Norway to do a rename for the award as the Nobel war prize like he did with the US war department.

It’s been my experience throughout the years.
I haven’t personally heard “I have nothing to hide”
since Huawei phones started to become banned in my country.

The moment they became popular they went from
“I’ve got nothing to hide” to “I’ve got nothing to hide, but this is different. Huawei is subject to the Chinese State.
Those other phones are made by our allies. We may have found time after time again that all phones of all our politicians have been tapped by the US and it’s true that no matter how hard our best security experts searched for listening bugs in these devices, they found diddly squat, but if you own one of those Chinese phones and think you’re not being listened to, than you’re being naive. Naive naive, !be scared!, naive national security naive.”.

When it was Obama listening in on their phones, westeners agree.
When it was Biden or Trump listening in on their phones, westeners went quiet.
When it’s Xi selling phones unbugged, westeners grab your phone throw it on the ground, pour gasoline over it, light a fire, scold you and threaten your life.

Hahaha, don’t be silly.
They want to steal Columbia’s resources of course.
They’ve stolen the Panama canal before.

The US response (media/police/even some of the public) to anything in protest is the most authoritarian response I have ever seen every single time, but I guess that’s understandable when you’re busy fully supporting a genocide and about half a dozen regime changes attempts per year.

“This is absolutely unacceptable and understandably scared travelers,” said US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy[1:2]. The airports quickly shut down affected systems and searched aircraft out of caution, though no security threats were found[1:3].

Does the computer in your living room get hacked? Check for explosives your basement!
And while we’re at it…

The hack targeted cloud-based audio and display systems through a software provider[3]. “Nobody informed us what was going on, there was no crisis response. Everyone was just really confused,” one Kelowna passenger told CNN[1:4].

bring in the guns!
Let’s have an army of ICE goons walk in next time and have them shoot random passengers
who may look like they could be part of the terrorist hackers!

I had three relationships in grade school and currently one online LDR.
I had another LDR, but she cheated on me, wanted me back after her failed marriage, but I declined.

My experience was that in high school,
I could not even have a chat with a girl
without being thrown accusations or gossip.
And in college all the young women seemed to be taken.

That’s still the case in the online world but you can at least chat a bit with them once in a while.

Did you live pre-internet?

It was way worse in my experience.
