Not enough trade with India to justify taking rupees.

It’s sort of a shit design for 2023 tbh.

Sounds like Ukraine got a new air defense system… Maybe they moved a Patriot battery?

Liberate Ukraine, except for the half of Ukraine that isn’t liberated?

Liberate Ukraine, with hundreds of thousands dead?

Ukrainian Pravda is basically a propaganda outlet. Why is a mod posting this lmao

If so, finally. It’s terrifying that the US government has this much power tbh

Foreign cultures by… Spreading Chinese New Year?

Do you know of any Westerner that celebrates CNY?

Don’t ask me, ask MBFC. This community decides what articles are OK based on MBFC.

China is trying to balance the pros of increased holiday spending with the cons of dealing with importing Western culture.

Surely this won’t have been funded by the NED, right?

nekandro OP , 7 months ago to worldnews in Major Hong Kong anti-government group Civic Party to disband in March 2024

On one hand, the demise of an opposition party is regrettable. On the other hand, what did they think was going to happen when they came to Congress to court US support in Hong Kong against China?

That’s literally, literally sedition and treason. If a US political party was going to China to ask for support against the other US political party, they’d be strung up alive by government agencies.

Might want to look a little closer into Bucha… Look at the actual evidence that came out of Bucha, not Western commentary on it (which, as we know from Gaza, tends to be unreliable).

Do you enjoy watching Ukraine collapse it’s economy, irreversibly fuck it’s demographics, and send hundreds of thousands of men to their death? Is that enjoyable to you because the lives lost aren’t American?

Venezuela can just claim that it happened in Venezuelan territorial waters. It’s the China playbook and it’s not entirely invalid. Veneuzuela’s claim on the Essequibo is pretty strong, but Britain wants to avoid setting the precedent that their colonial-era borders are invalid.

Why would Israelis care about Christ?

nekandro , 7 months ago to worldnews in Pope decries ‘appalling harvest’ of civilian deaths in Gaza

We all know that NATO won’t invade the Vatican because their resources are tied up in Russia, in supporting US interests in Taiwan, in blocking Ansarallah in the Red Sea, in supporting Guyana in South America…

How are those going, by the way?
