China's CCP do party politics we'd have trouble to distinguish from failed democracies. They kinda fight with each other within the party, then the local CCP members vote on which delegates to send to the central committee equival

That's where I'm extremely opposed to conservatives/reactionaries of my country: they identify some issues correctly imho, but we're in total disagreement of the root cause, and thus on how to solve it. To me, the US hav

Man, I spent a month in WV circa 2019 (Lincoln county to be specific, although I moved around), and a month in rural China, I guarantee you the worst places to live weren't in China. I love WV, but 'meth and abject poverty' i

You can, but it will destroy your plane electronics if you can't bring an external cooler fast enough. even with the next gen internal cooler (that won't be in test until 2029, so not installed until like 2035), the jury is still

That's a 'i'm just asking questions' move here, you clearly implied the AAP recommended the Dengue vaccine to be used in a dangerous way. Also, you wrote that Mpox was among vaccines recommended to children. The 18+ indi

In my country, she would be put on leave, then investigated, then tried, then let go, then hidden away if the felony was big or forgotten if it was minor (because white collar crime almost always pays, it's better to go hard).
