Drag Me To Hell, 2009

I mean tresspass laws designed to prevent newly freed black people from “just existing” go back to 1865.

Who said eliminating Israel required ethnically cleansing Jews? There were jewish people living in Palestine before Israel, there will be Jewish people living in Palestine after Israel.

Elimination of Israel != elimination of the people living there.

Quite the opposite; Israel, as a settler colonial project, necessitates the elimination of many of the people living there.

I was actually thinking who else might be on the list and if Trump is getting pressured from foreign and local elites to keep this buried.

Biden didnt release it either so we know the elites are on both sides. Prince Andrew was on the flight logs.

Obama is beyond reproach

The Deporter In Chief who built the cages, bombed a dozen countries, and expanded/legitimized the spying we all agreed was bad when Bush did it would be hanged if we applied the principles used at the Nuremberg trials. That said, I have no reason to believe he has raped anyone, unlike Clinton, Biden, and Trump.

After a week in Vietnam, you wont be able to look at anyone who says they need a pickup truck to carry tools without thinking “skill issue”.

They plan to buy half a million electrics for impoverished areas. Which isn’t nearly enough, but it’s a start.

btw, this is what Hanoi regularly looks like during winter.

Is your commute>60 miles? If so, then you’re only using the scooter to get to the train station. If not, there’s VN scooters for <2K that can do that in an hour, and chinese scooters that are even faster.

There are countries where that is absolutely true, look at any major construction project in the gulf states, and counties where that is much less true.

At least during my time in China, I saw more workers wearing PPE and taking measures such as using water to stop particulate matter from getting into the air than in Korea and way more than Vietnam and other developing countries. I understand it was very different 20 years ago.

I don’t have data, but I would be quite surprised if China had significantly more injuries per hour worked in construction than Korea.

I’d be more interested in see if they were able to continue this kind of buildout in 30 years

The Beijing subway opened in 1971, when they had less than half the current population. All I can say is that it felt slow, like 2 hours to get what looked like 3-4 blocks on a map

Very recent, non-peer reviewed research, n=1. It makes me very happy to be able to nap on a subway/night bus or safely ride a bicycle or somewhat less safely ride a motorbike. My productivity is the same because I work remotely.

Digging tunnels is dangerous. Especially if you dont have a century of experience to build off of.

lmao do you think china has an industry of mustache-twirling villains whose job it is to threaten peoples families if they dont work for free? Presumably they work for free to keep their families alive too.

The main difference here seems to be that the US can compell property owners to accept what they determine is a fair market rate, but another poster informed me that in some cases the chinese can compell people to sell too.

to the best of my knowledge he didn’t rape children at organised child rape parties with other child rapists

Well he was on the flight logs with Prince Andrew, Kevin Spacy, and Donald Trump.

There has been no attempt to prosecute them.

I think you and the person you’re responding to have different definitions of lib.
