If you want recs, I’d try different pharmacies and if you can different stimulants.

Yeah, this isn’t at all surprising. It’s not like they’re an organized military. With limited encrypted communications, it’s probably impossible for the Hamas leadership to keep track of what’s going on.
Yet the overwhelming majority of the time, they’ve committed a crime. There may be systematic issues in the justice system, and US that lead to the higher conviction rates/arrest rates, but we have the right to appeal, the right to representation, and our criminal justice system is regularly investigated and publicized.
On the flip side, on a mass scale in Xinjiang, people are being systematically targeted, sterilized, tortured, being forced to work, etc. solely because of their culture and skin color.
The two systems are very different. Two things can be bad, and one of those bad things can be substantially worse. It’s like wondering why Texas will execute a serial killer, but not someone who punched someone at a bar. Both things are bad, but the scale is completely different.
Having the red line as genocide, or as slavery from the buying and selling of people feels like a pretty safe line to have. Blocking goods is a very serious move in international relations.
The US justice system is not inherently racist, it’s systematically racist, which isn’t good, but is a different thing. Nearly every person in the US prison system is there because they committed a crime. The people in Xinjiang did nothing but have the wrong culture and skin color. It’s still a false equivalency.
Anyone can involve themselves and investigate the US court system, they can file complaints, they can sue for unfair treatment etc. International monitors are barred from Xinjiang.
Forcing prisoners to repay a debt to society through labor, and forcing the minority you’re actively genociding to produce goods feel like two very different things.
I strongly disagree with US prison labor, and our prison system’s focus on punishment and repayment rather than actually correcting the behaviors, but it’s legal by the US constitution.
The US DoL has an article on the situation with these laborers in China. https://www.dol.gov/agencies/ilab/against-their-will-the-situation-in-xinjiang
Oh, I hadn’t realized it was already being used. A million pounds every two days is a lot, so I’m surprised I hadn’t heard until now.
Is that comic loss? 🤔
I always take my food as a suppository. Rectal taste buds hit different.
Fascinating!
It’s absolutely a topic worth discussing and considering from a college or advanced high school level perspective imo as there is debate to be had. IDK if you saw it, the article I linked does discuss a lot of the benefits, and it discusses a lot of the downsides to those benefits. Like cotton from the south was definitely cheaper, but putting all their eggs into the slave estate basket meant they didn’t have a well developed industrial base, which you can see caused them a lot of issues in the civil war. It was also bad from their overall economy.
Fucking yikes. I wouldn’t have guessed that from just the title. I don’t understand why I don’t just assume the absolute worst when Republicans do anything these days 😂
What’s wild is, I actually went and googled this topic with an open mind. It’s not even true. There weren’t major benefits besides adding diversity and culture to our country, and there were certainly better ways to go about that.

Well that sucks. :l
It really is hard to put Republican assholery on a scale of “worst in our lifetime”.
GWB got us in multiple multiple decade long wars.
Mitt Romney or Dick Cheney might have turned the great recession into another great depression.
Trump nearly got us into another full blown recession, got rid of Roe V Wade, tried to overturn Democracy, and nearly got us into a war with Iran.
Trump this time around will try to overturn Democracy again, might bring back the full blown recession we almost had, will let Russia steamroll Ukraine, will support Israel harder than any US president, etc. etc.
For some more context, the article says four of the five units have remedied their issues, and the State Department is working with the Israeli government to remedy the issue with the fifth unit. I’m not sure what they mean by “remedy”, but I’m assuming they mean punishing the individuals responsible or something.
Yeah, in one game I was having issues locking at a big distance. Maybe the hitboxes of the hills the hulk was running across were being funky, so it was thinking it was out of sight. Idk.
I’m shocked. Every time I use it, I can’t get a lock on anything. When I manage to, it works great, but it’s not worth it for me over the quasar.
Yeah, it’s bonkers it’s been out for months and months and the Spear is still completely broken.
Weren’t they literally from Codepink? Like 25% of their funding comes from the Shanghai based billionaire husband of a cofounder. Since they got married, Codepink changed their opinions SHARPLY on China. It seems like a good excuse for shouting “go back to China”.
Pelosi caveated this statement saying that most of them are probably organic and sincere, but the pro Palestine movement aligns with the goals of Russia 🤷♂️, which doesn’t make the pro Palestine movement wrong.
It’s pretty well documented that Russia attempted to spur conflict within the US by trying to instigate the BLM movement. The BLM movement may overall be a good thing, but that doesn’t mean we should be happy that antagonistic foreign governments are trying to add to them.
Further, look at all the tankie influencers online who suddenly are super pro Palestine, such as Jackson Hinckle, even though they have no issue with governments putting down protest in their preferred countries like China.

Yeah, look into the NY public funding going into ultra Orthodox schools. It’s depressing.
