We did in the 80s when you last were culture bombed about it. The textile industry is mostly in China now, and mostly automated, including cotton harvesting. Wool has some issues but animal cruelty tends not to register with you people, but poly blend clothing, which is by far the majority of clothing produced, has less human labor than most electronics manufacturing.

If it’s a shirt, there’s not really labor involved outside transportation.

Because he ran on a fairly progressive campaign and was black, so easy electability to the people that don’t pay attention. That and New Yorkers are fascist sympathizers.

It has to be committed by enemies of the US to be genocide, otherwise it’s a humanitarian crisis no one can solve.

What century are you from? The last time Russia had anti air assets in Ukraine it was still called the Ukraine and it was half it’s current size.

Read the rules, if you disagree with the rules in a community, don’t participate, make your own. It’s hardly power tripping if you actively seek to violate rules clearly laid out.

Yes that is specifically what I’m talking about, there wasn’t criticism of China, there was “oog think China bad because ( insert thing the UN found no evidence of that literally only the US ever said there was evidence of and they didn’t present that evidence ).”

Both of those statements are allowed in .ml, you just can’t repeat us state department propaganda without extreme amounts of proof to back it up. There is a difference between: “I think China is authoritarian” and “oog boog look remember that genocide that the UN investigated and found wasn’t a genocide where all the ‘victims’ that were touted are now millionaires in other countries after selling a story the UN specifically found didn’t happen… It happened!!!1!1!!1”

It’s a weird stereotype that many gay white men are white first, men second, gay never in terms of their politics, but it keeps happening.

That’s less than a third of the countries in the world.

You can get married to whomever you like in China, you just don’t get the tax break. And yeah, that sucks they’re a decade behind the US on that one subject, tax breaks for gay couples, while being a century ahead in other subjects.

You know you can go to China yourself and verify that’s false.

What part of uighur culture was erased, exactly, by funding schools, arresting foreign violent religious extremists, and building affordable housing?

Are you saying uighurs are all violent, uneducated, homeless people and should remain that way due to their culture?

Just a reminder before you do the next state dept line, there are more mosques in every major Chinese city than there are in the state of New York.

Yeah that’s the unsupported US state dept propaganda I was mainly talking about.

We know what genocide in the 21st century under an authoritarian regime that has complete and total control over the flow of information looks like, thanks to Israel. The Palestinian genocide is the most well documented genocide in history, despite Israel entirely controlling the access to technology, press, and internet, with a tighter grip than China.

Uighurs aren’t under going a genocide. You can visit Xinjiang right now, without a tour guide. You can bring whatever tech you want and post whatever you want.

Was China harsh in their initial crackdown of allegedly radicalized elements among the poverty stricken population 20 years ago when 9/11 was still fresh in everyone’s minds and the US government was invading a half dozen countries causing terror groups to flee to other countries and start cells there? Sure.

But fewer people of uighur descent were killed or imprisoned over the last 50 years in China, per capita or by total number, than black people were by the us last year.

If that’s the basis for genocide, then boyo every country on the planet has committed genocide and is committing genocide.

As long as you don’t blindly repeat things from the US state dept without any critical thoughts you’re fine. Look into things before you say them, China has plenty of issues, pick a real one.

Good news, five companies globally own all of the food you will likely find to eat. (Us/EU/former and current colonies of those two), unless you’re growing your own heirloom varietals.

Sorry not good news, the other thing.

Truly up to you, but Walmarts get stolen from all the time, repeatedly, for years by the same people. Don’t fuck with target though.

I know the Walton’s at this point are stupidly wealthy and don’t often go into public, but this seems like an incredibly arrogant announcement given the recent news.

Remember kids, you don’t have to show your receipt at the door, most the cameras are fake, and if you take some extra bags from self check out and sneak them in next time literally no one will notice.

Except it’s new money that’s made up, and in the case of student loans, most of that money isn’t traded for goods and services, instead more than 3/4s of the money created goes back to the lender.
