“Chinese Imperialism threatens U.S. Imperialism”

Uh huh, and definitely 100% normal for half the thread to be smugly judging OP for enjoying it.

how is it possible that chicken can get people sick

Huh? Poultry is in the news for illness reasons all the time, lettuce comes up often too. Not saying it isn’t for scummy corner cutting reasons, but don’t act like taco bell is somehow the first chain to give someone food poisoning.

The haters can claw my baja blast and my cantina chicken quesadillas from my cold, dead hands.

The rest of the Fediverse would be better off that’s for sure.

I can’t exactly say I love the fact that we nuked Japan, but the diameter of the Fat man was about a mile, and google tells me Peleliu is about 20 square miles in size. Would waiting, and glassing an entire island have been a better choice? Loss of native life would still be awful, but magnitudes less than the real bombings.

Of course, best of luck!

You’re practically asking if you should write your work in French or German. Both are valid artistic choices, but one’s probably going to come more naturally to you.

I do have one idea that you might enjoy though - if you write from both of their perspectives, you could have one woman view everything through an idealistic lens, while the other has a much more grounded view? That dynamic might take over what you already had planned a little bit too much but I thought it was a neat concept.

Given that both of your examples are commonly authoritarian if not outright fascist in ideology, I’m not exactly sure they’re too interested in class solidarity?

Glad you can grandstand but “you and the inbred moron who voted for the people who enabled things to get this bad are both getting dicked, so you should accept their opinions as respectable” is not the slam dunk argument you think it is.

Why would they design it to be any better if you’re still willing to pay for it?

Read “Nationalism” as “your comment is inconvenient to the tankie narrative”

It’s not a job description, it’s a skillset. Any public face would want it.

Op sounds less surprised more disappointed.

the Malvinas were colonized for resources

What resources do the Falklands have exactly? Fucking fish?

It was a convenient and well situated naval base historically, and now is perfectly able to declare independence if the population so wishes -the falklands just, shockingly, overall benefit from being a part of a larger and richer national entity.

Essequibo was disputed in colonial times, with the dispute being settled by an international tribunal. First it was about gold, now it’s about oil.

They’re in Australia, they’re obviously already connected to the electrical grid, and have the free space. I don’t really see how taking advantage of an obviously free win is in any way a “sick burn” of nuclear.

You gotta consider that when a country doesn’t do something for sixty years, that means basically anyone that actually worked on it has retired. They probably have access to more research and data but it’s probably all stored in ancient formats barely used anymore.

Get this cringe piss baby propaganda outta here

So we glass the governor’s private residence and finish what reconstruction failed to do a century ago. The armed and “well regulated” militia is on the highest copium possible thinking an ar-15 is anything the government fears.

Right, tell me more about how trump would’ve been better…
