What always gets me about this poo poo is the fact the we're expected to think that these people are talking about Xinjiang because they care about the oppression of a Muslim minority. Probably just a coincidence that you don't hear a lot about India in this context. I suppose everything was smooth sailing when Narendra Modi was Chief Minister of Gujarat.  quote:During the riots, Modi said that "What is happening is a chain of action and reaction." Later in 2002, Modi said the way in which he had handled the media was his only regret regarding the episode. Just wait until Bellingcat and Adrian Zenz hears about this!

Ground added a gold fringe (lol) and halved the rays, maritime just made the red brigher, both were a done deal at the very moment the US officially approved an SDF out of the Korea-era paramilitary police.

Raskolnikov38 posted:uhhhh when did Japan start using the rising sun flags again The Rising Sun Flag was readopted as the war flag and naval ensign of Japan's Self-Defense Force on June 30, 1954. The day said force was founded. It's never been Japan's national flag if that's what you thought.

https://twitter.com/TheEconomist/status/1451775460195684355?s=20 Cool quote:Duties include conducting foreign policy, for officials in Yunnan must talk to Vietnamese counterparts about exchanges of students or travel permits for ethnic minorities whose lands straddle the frontier. Both sides regularly clear landmines from border areas—a lethal legacy of China’s brief invasion of Vietnam in 1979, which still costs locals limbs. Does the writer know that China and Vietnam had a low intensity conflict for years after the 1979 invasion? Landmines aren't really used in invasions, but are used in border skirmishes.

The prior posts from shocked goons gave me the impression that they thought that was the case and that its appearance is some recent development.

https://twitter.com/PhilstarNews/status/1451819378656247811quote:Socialist coalition Laban ng Masa, which is backing presidential aspirant and labor leader Leody de Guzman and his running mate Walden Bello, presented Saturday a 13-point platform consisting of ambitious economic, political and social reforms that would mostly need congressional approval. There's a slight bit of media bias already creeping into this when they say that this program would require Congressional approval (which presumably would NOT be given), but by my count anywhere from a quarter to about half of these points could be achieved by Executive fiat

Stringent posted:you're conflating a meaning to this normal japanese ppl don't feel, at least in my experience. Pretty much the entire cultural memory of the country iirc is the delusional and idiotic ruling class using force and lies to drag them into a hopeless war that destroyed an entire generation and left the country a series of smoking, sometimes radioactive craters. Unfortunately, the ruling class hasn't gotten any less delusional and idiotic, and their democracy is pretty much a one-party state with a token useless opposition. There's apparently regular attempts to beef up the SDF into a real military rather than kayfabe and/or to get nukes, and every time there's massive popular outcry of 'gently caress no'. Unfortunately like a lot of things it's uncertain how much that's actually going to matter when the people in charge decide to do what they want to do.
