The VP is going to Vietnam to tell them that America is back!


Vice President Kamala Harris is set to travel to Singapore and Vietnam later this month, becoming the highest-ranking Biden administration official to visit Asia so far.
"Her trip will build on the Biden-Harris Administration's message to the world: America is back," her office said in a statement.
The statement continued, "Our Administration sees Asia as a critically important region in the world. The Vice President's visit will emphasize the importance of comprehensive engagement and strategic partnerships -- key components of our Administration's approach to foreign policy."

It doesn't really matter what the source is when the point is that it was published in the Washington Post at all. I'm not trying to convince anyone that genocide in Xinjiang is or isn't happening, here, only that the WaPo was critical of the assertion once. (Or allowed criticism of the assertion on their platform - iirc it was an article about broader anti-Asian sentiment during COVID that was also critical of reporting on Xinjiang, but it may have been an opinion piece.)

And I'm having trouble showing even that so your lol is justified but misdirected.

this exact dynamic happens in literally every single flame war involving a radlib:

1. radlib says something abysmally stupid
2. radlib claims all their critics are nazis
3. actual nazis agree that all radlib critics are nazis, in order to recruit
4. more actual nazis who did not have to become nazis, if a better critic of liberalism had gotten there first

i'm sure it's all just an accident or a coincidence though :thunk:

I have a feeling that if Trump responded to our military brutally murdering desperate people as we scramble in a desperate retreat by being unable to guess when it even happened just two days later the response would be ...extremely different to say the least

COVID is surging, the economy is becoming increasingly rickety, and the first major foreign policy decision of the administration was an absolute shitshow. If you voted for Biden under the expectation that none of those things would happen, well...

I thought Biden was the empathy guy heh. It was kinda shocking how little of a poo poo he even pretended to give about the people falling off planes and storming the airport.

Just discovered the Destiny saga by way of some of Vaush's old videos (yes, yes, I know shut up) and LMAO drat. I'd heard he was bad but I wasn't prepared for just how much he sucks. I don't think I've seen a better example in my life of the way centrist liberals tend to become conservatives over time as their core assumptions about the system they benefit from are challenged and they are forced to chose between upholding the values they pretend to care about and keeping the privileges the system provides. It's loving surreal to watch and I'd put decent money on this guy going full Dave Rubin at some point and posting one of those "why I left the left" screeds. I mean he's already lost a podcast and a potential political career because he's super passionate about his right to say racial slurs in private, so...

imagine if trump were president and had said that

- Late night would be wall to wall rants and sarcastic takes about it. a 10 minute laughless sketch on SNL this weekend where the only joke is that Trump is a murderer.
- Pelosi or other members of congress would be giving press conferences about how the lives of our allies don't become unimportant after a few days.
- Doctors would be posting opeds in NYT/Washpo saying Trump is unfit for command and should be 25thed
- 1,000 posts a day in USPOL ranting about Trump being a murderer with 5 new thread titles about Covefefe babyhand murder
- Celebrities crying and bawling on twitter about the injustice of Trump personally murdering people
- 4th/5th impeachment would be floated as a bare minimum, leaders on the left "Seriously considering" the 25th
- Screaming enraged politicians like Tilab/Booker yelling at people about the wholesale murder of innocent people by Trump personally as people like AOC tweet about accountability and injustice

Yet with Biden there is light questioning by the media and then silence. All of the outspoken democrats kind of whistling and ignoring the murdered civilians while trying to wait the news cycle out.

I guess after 22 and 24 they'll be worried about bringing attention to what happens in the world, at least performatively, again.
