  • It’s just a very smart way to spread propaganda by using a real statistic out of context.

    Of course “70% of the victims are either children or women” sounds horrible - until you realize that a majority of the population there in underage (and therefore children) and that Hama’s is actively using underage children as soldiers - and if you look at the difference between the age structure and the casualties adult males are more likely to be victims than the other groups which are actually underrepresented.



  • I wonder what kind of securities Taiwan needs in order to bargain with china about it.

    Joining NATO, being able to be officially recognised as a sovereign country without immediate sanctions by China against whoever did that? Permanent stationing of western troops?

    I feel as if China giving up the claim to Taiwan in exchange for Taiwan’s product capabilities to be made available within the mainland China would lead to China becoming the new global superpower for sure.


  • I’m firmly convinced that 90% of the protesters are trolls that’ll vote Trump anyway and are just trying to discourage people from voting for Harris that would never vote for Trump the same way the Trump campaign did that against Clinton.

    Some people are probably participating in those as useful idiots that are not realizing that their activism will only make matters worse

    I think it’s very telling how often those protests are accompanied by “not voting for X” - since that’s the main agenda - not to help Palestinian people
