people end up leaving south korea for work anywhere doing like, literally whatever, since working conditions are so shite the term "Helljoseon" is slang for how bad it is. it's not really a question of specific industries they're settling in imo

Ardennes posted:That or the Fed is continually supporting markets without an exit strategy while China has generally let them go. I would say the market in the US at the "too big to fail" level, too much depends on it (including oligarchs)...and so the emphasis has to be on continual printing. I’d say this is a distinction without a difference. even continual printing will hit a limit eventually and then…?

And after taking one close look he still went back to his funded-three-months-at-a-time position.

Ardennes posted:It has been a bit but it used to be that pretty much the left-wing factions always get trash canned because they almost always get ganged up on by Germany and the Entente. Maybe the Russia rework helped it out, but the Left-Kuomintang also to be nearly unplayable and you would have to use the cheesiest tactics possible to survive. Not if Russia goes fash. I think I only saw Russia go socialist once, because it's like way deep down the decision tree compared to all the other options. So here the last bulwark of socialism is in Asia.  Edit: I guess Germany isn't as OP as in the base game, because Russia seems to win more often.

https://twitter.com/weirdnews/status/1422213115765166081 the actual article contains very few examples of actual chinese trolling and most of what it does have is really milquetoast quote:Last week, Chinese internet users also lashed out after Japanese gymnast Daiki Hashimoto beat his Chinese rival in the men's all-around final to win gold. that sounds like a really dumb rule btw and the chinese trolls were right to be salty

I think some people will lost their jobs. The tunnel was also completely flooded. But I think "only" 5 people died in the tunnel so they are probably fine.

The actual number is not as bad as it sounds but low starting salary for college grads has been a running joke. I have watch a few Taiwanese news special that follow young people who fine jobs in Japan and Australia. There are a few docs for Taiwanese young people working in mainland too but in general Taiwanese news channel are very green leaning and they don't want to touch this area. I impression is Taiwanese people are pretty flexible in the job market (compare to the HKers for example.) I would like to watch similar docs for Korean young people. Do "Asian Boss" make in-depth specials for these people?

Lostconfused posted:Christopher Clark argues in his book that Austria-Hungary could have possibly just attacked right away without warning as a retaliation without triggering a war between the two political alliances. Russia was building a narrative that Serbia was innocent in the assassination, with tacit support from Britain/France, and the time spent on the trial and establishing guilt was very helpful for that. Austria was mobilizing across July, the trial and demands were simply pretext. The initial Austrian-Hungarian offensive was also a failure despite that. I don't see any way of Austria avoiding Russia coming to Serbia's aid. Centrist Committee posted:I’d say this is a distinction without a difference. even continual printing will hit a limit eventually and then…? It depends on if other countries are printing at the same time. The EU has been expanding its monetary supply as well, but they also have been vaccinating to an higher extent and therefore may have a more viable exit strategy.

I just want to say it blew my friend in LA's mind how incredibly difficult the NBC et all makes it to watch or even read about the current olympics while in china there's like 2 public channels dedicated to covering it. USA gets the most medals but prevents its own public from participating in watching, it really is shocking how hosed our society is. I just remembered that when it was easier for me to look up what events china has gold in than USA because all the articles google serves me are behind a paywall. And also Peacock streaming service doesn't have live coverage so you pay $15 for them to give you their recaps or $65 for NBC to watch with their lovely commentary. CCT5 and CCTV5+ have very positive commentary even of other countries and all the tickers are in english so just watch the CCTV coverage for free on https://www.olevod.com/index.php/vod/play/id/26767/sid/1/nid/1.html and https://www.olevod.com/index.php/vod/play/id/20428/sid/1/nid/1.html

the number of PRC immigrants to the rest of the world is probably more politically/culturally significant than immigrants to China given the Japanese xenophobia towards the Chinese, i'm kinda amazed at how the low-end service industry (convenience stores, wait staff etc) in Japan is increasingly manned by Chinese guest workers

The only time I followed Olympic events wall-to-wall was in 08 when I was in China. In the US its so difficult to see the sports I want to see I just give up. I know I can get a free youtube tv trail or whatever, but I refuse to jump thru the loops just on principle.

South Korea seems to be where China is headed towards in terms of prospects of millenials it's amusing to see western lefties being triumphalist about purported attempts to cut down on Big Tuition in China the reliance on tuition isn't the cause but a symptom of how most Chinese kids' futures are determined by a couple exams and richer kids will always have the resources to get into better schools. the universities are a sorting mechanism for a limited number of high paying white collar jobs another area where late stage communism isn't that far off from late stage capitalism

the private tuition industry is a cancer and a massive part of richer kids having the resources to win out. beating it down doesn't solve the primary issue but it's a massive step that none of the other countries with the same issue (south korea, india) are taking so its amusing to see righties trying to play it down.

From what I have read/seen discussed, I doubt young people in China as a whole are as pessimistic about their prospects as young people in US. The closet parallel would probably be in first tier cities where affordability is much more of an issue. China is a mixed economy but at least there are some ways that pressure is released.

 i guess i'm wondering why people seem so invested in defending a degraded social democracy when there're better functioning ones e.g., scandinaviayoung western lefties seem like the mirror image of those young hong kong protestors who have an idealized America in their heads

It absolutely does, not because private tutors and schools are necessarily better than public ones but they become elite networks used to exclude the poor. Those who pay for "superior education" will be more easily accepted to prestigious and powerful universities because of "networking".

Yeah, Scandinavian countries have been heavily moving in the other direction for years. Anyway, the only way things change are if there is constant geopolitical pressure being put on the US and it is obvious only one country is capable of it.
