Weird, I could've sworn it was the embargos that caused that.

It's almost like all the engineers and scientists were killed by Japan during WW2.

Seems like a good time to lift the embargos so they can fix their infrastructure.

I'm pretty sure the answer is no.

Most people that vote third party wouldn't vote otherwise. Assuming that every vote for Jill Stein would've gone to Hillary is quite the assumption. I always vote third party, so assuming my current vote for Jill Stein would've gone towards Harris instead is just dumb and wrong.

That video literally shows the people that're rioting and throwing Molotovs at military vehicles. This is also outside the square. Tankman is also the day before the riots and the tanks are leaving the square, not going into it.

I mean, if you need a legit journalist saying it, here's a Western journalist that used to work for the Washington Post:

But, ultimately, there's not going to be a new York Times article saying that China didn't slaughter people for no reason because that's against their goals as Western journalists. I guess you'd just have to believe that the news lies about things. But I guess you believe that the news always tells the truth and that they're infallible.

Well I can't exactly quote CNN for you to show you the counter to Western propaganda, can I? Tell me a "legit source" that isn't skewed by Western media.

UAW (lemmy.world)
 

I work with the UAW and I'm reaching out to anyone in the St. Pete or greater Tampa Bay area about organizing your workplace. If you're unhappy with your wages, hours, or working conditions; please reach out. I would love to help organize your workplace. I've lived in Pinellas county my entire life and working class people are being priced out of their homes here. With the rising cost of living, we need to band together to demand better wages and force our employers to pay us what we're worth. Lets bring the labor movement down to St. Pete and stop job hopping from one sweat shop to another. I don't care what industry you work in, I just want to help you organize. United we bargain, divided we beg.
