Black people can't possibly have a better grasp of what's going on in their backyard than white people on the other side of the planet.

Who's consuming? China, the single biggest driver of increasing oil consumption for the past few decades, is predicted to hit peak oil this year and their oil demand is collapsing due to the massive market share of EVs in the Chinese market.

The Indian position on Sikhs is more radical than the Chinese position on Uyghurs. That's.... Depressing.

That's literally the role of the government, though.

US politics is basically neither side compromising on the basis of ideology and saying it's the other side's fault.

That's a far more condemnable position when you're the actual government than when you're the opposition.

People have been far more concerned about the efficacy of the ALPS system at extracting other contaminants than they are about tritium contamination. The ALPS system is unproven and the wastewater they're releasing would be pretty toxic as far as other radioactive isotopes is concerned if the ALPS system isn't doing it's job perfectly.
