It is honestly surprising, that it took so long. China is a massive country, with a large economy. They should be an absolute leader in exporting cultural products. Especially since China inherited Hong Kongs massive movie industry, which decline after the hand over.
They fixate on presumption and emotion because they cannot engage with intellectual debate.
People usually have an emotional standpoint first and then construct an intellectual argument for that emotional position. Also they mostly just ignore facts, that do not line up with their world view and if you “win” an argument, they usually just shut you out. So the best way is to go for emotions first.
To solve the climate crisis, we need to shut down fossil fuel infrastructure. Missiles are great at doing that.
Makes me think of mcmansionhell.com
There are something like 100k Israelis who are still alive and survived the Holocaust. That is mostly just due to the Holocaust ending over 80years ago and people die of old age.
Honestly I dislike the constant Holocaust comparisons. They play into Israeli propaganda, as the connection between Israel and Jews is very obvious and Jews were the victims of the Holocaust. That makes Israel look like a victim just defending itself.
Does Cuba have $8bn for that? Seriously the economy is complete shit due to the US blockade and the nominal GDP was $250billion last year. Obviously a lot of that also has to go for food and other basics, which seems to be a real problem right now.
Putin managed to do something similar before. The issue is that high fossil fuel prices also mean massive profits for fossil fuel companies. Since green technologies take time to deploy, this means fossil fuel companies have a lot of money for corruption.
The good news is that there are tipping points. Things like fossil fuel jobs are cut and companies leave countries. For example the UK has no longer coal power plants. So the coal lobby is going to be extremely weak in the UK.
This is getting the bribe money. Insider trading on Trump is going to be much better then under say Biden. He also makes the rich even richer and especially the oil and gas industry in the US.
It is kind of crazy that some of the most quotable movies are accused of having bad dialogue.
68.4% of Japans population lives in cities(50k+), whereas only 40% of Europes population does that. Not to mention the rural population(below 5000) is nearly three times higher in Europe.
Musk cut Starlink This matters as electronic warfare can ground a drone very cheaply and quickly.
She got a bad case of Murdoch…
The conference is co-sponsored by Colombia and the Netherlands, a pairing rich with symbolism: Colombia is the world’s fifth-largest coal exporter, Royal Dutch Shell one of the world’s biggest oil companies.
Royal Dutch Shell has renamed itself to only Shell and has given up its Dutch site moving fully to London.
Israel and the US, which would be the ONLY legitimate targets for Iran. Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Thailand and many others are not. Ukraine does not have the right to blow up Bejing for example either.
It is United Mexican States so it would be UMS
If the US leaves NATO, it would be even better. Seriously that would clean up a lot. Also the US bases in Germany are legally NATO bases, so they loose their biggest bomber base doing that.
We kind of know how Trump sees international agreements. I very much doubt any such deal is actually going to last, especially with Israel really wanting to bomb Iran.
It can also be an increase in Ukraines range. If for example AA and jammers have been destroyed in sections of the front, you would expect longer range Ukrainian attacks.
