Ever been to a country where motorbikes are just a normal form of transport, for both 16 year old race boy and 75 year old great grandma?

So part of the reason for that is .ml and hexbear are pretty much the only instances blocked by the great firewall. So .ml users who go to China can either jump instances or use a vpn/hk-based esim to post.

Idk… am I supposed to like people that believes its for the greater good for me to have been aborted because “bUt tHe oVeRpOpUlAtIoN”…?

I’m pretty sure (or hope) that antinatalist ecofascist horseshit will get you banned from any leftist instance, nobody thinks the 1 child policy was anything except a mistake based off some liberal neomalthusulan horseshit.

try watching porn in China… (porn is illegal)

I’ve done that lol just use a vpn. Probably a quarter of my xhs is thirst content

So they have a system where towns are appointed a mayor who gets changed out every 5 years. The mayor is then graded on things like education, economy, popularity, and how many veggies the village ate.

The purpose of this is to prevent local fiefdoms from developing and to quickly identify and remove underperforming leaders.

This has the effect of people appealing to the provincial government to either keep or remove candidates who are exceptionally good or bad.

A nazi with political connections who keeps dropping completely unworkable tasks onto competent engineers and administrators, and also lost the company a shitton of money because he couldn’t stop disseminating nazi propaganda?

Yugoslavia’s computer industry is also interesting. People were encouraged to build computers from off-the-shelf parts and schematics in magazines.

Computer programs were broadcast on radio, so you could hold a tape recorder up to the radio when the program was being broadcast, then plug it into your home-made PC and run the program.

The group that’s most at risk due to bad road conditions, motorcycles, did nothing to deserve this.

So if if a 400 lb motorbike costs 1 penny per mile in road damage, the 4000 lb SUV should be paying 60 bucks and the 40,000 lb tractor trailer 1 million dollars?

Or is it divided by contact area?

Producing art is a type of labor, artists are workers.

Yes, they both should be in prison.

You think its tinfoil to say the US blew up the Russian pipeline, as reported by Seymore Hersh, and that this had the effect of making Europe less dependent on Russian imports, and [more dependent on US imports](https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=67224#%3A~%3Atext=Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,%25 of U.S.-origin volumes.)?

This isn’t even controversial. Whats the alternative, that Russia bombed their own pipeline used to supply Europe, and this hasn’t benefitted US energy exports to Europe?

That’s my point, America isn’t offering you Russia, we’re the ones who cut you off them by literally blowing up your pipelines so you have to buy ours instead. Yall got yourself onto Russian gas, likely because 1. Theirs was the cheapest due to proximity and 2. yall thought you’d have more leverage with Russia than America or China.

Whose nat gas were you buying in 2022, and whose are you buying now?

Or at all

Socialism is defined by opposition to capitalism, if you don’t support eventually moving beyond Capitalism, you’re definitionally a liberal.

That’s not unattractive. I was waiting until after things calmed down to visit, but maybe I head over earlier.

Weather is getting a bit warm though, will the position still be open in 6 months or so?

1. Strength of the currency doesn’t work like that, 1 Kuwaiti buck = 3.2USD, yet the median salary is barely a third of third of US salaries after conversion.

2. Instead of converting, you can:

Get a bank account that doesn’t charge for international withdrawals and withdraw money from a foreign ATM (look up other foreigners experiences with the ATM, some, especially in europe are literal scams) your bank almost certainly has a better rate than any retail currency exchange.

Exchange a little currency, then use a CC with no foreign currency fee for anything that isn’t cash only.

Wise Card. Idk, I’ve seen other foreigners use it.

Western Union, Money gram, etc, if you need the equivalent of a wire transfer, but don’t have bank account in the receiving country. This is good if you need a big sum of local cash, say to pay rent or to buy a vehicle or something.

I keep a little USD in my shoe just in case, like 150 bucks. Only ever needed it to pay some embassy fees.

Where are you traveling to?

What kind of position are you talking about?

He was running after 4 years of Trump. And after a primary and events in 2020 that got low-information voters believing democrats supported free healthcare/college, abolishing ICE, continuing covid protections, etc.
