They are on borrowed time. Chinese economic growth is investment based and now they've built enough condos to house their entire (huge) population twice. This will ruin the value of houses, which is where ordinary Chinese have their savings. Coupled with their poorly thought out demographic policy this will cause an insane crisis as the life savings of elderly Chinese evaporate while they don't have the working population to recover from this. There's this guy Peter Zeihan on YouTube who explains it better than I can. He expects China to be done within a decade.

That's just more reason to not do it at all
All of our international organizations are useless because of too much veto power and no mechanism to throw countries out. I would love a coalition of reasonable countries that you can only be part of it you have a functioning democracy and respect the rule of law
Agreed, the death penalty is inherently cruel, no matter what the person has done. Especially if you make people wait for decades in a prison cell before the sentence is carried out
Half of the YouTube comments are like "yeah well they're not road legal in the US" which entirely misses the point. It's not like that's some kind of cosmic truth that can never be changed. It just means the law is dumb as well
Even before reading the post I knew immediately which song it is. I've seen it added ironically to many videos of Russians dying alone and cold in a bomb crater somewhere in a field in Ukraine
Imagine MTG pulling the strings of this shit show
Can't really commit genocide with a UN official looking over your shoulder
They are powered by Elon's massive ego exclusively and as such don't require any polluting fuel or rare earth metals. The future is finally here
Reminds me of that silly Disney Easter cartoon where the Easter bunnies are mixing paint for the eggs and the pattern stays even when they apply it
How do people vote for cartoon villains
