Their definition of "anti-Chinese Communist Party (CCP) content" is dialed way up into treating "China will fall in 7 days" like good content and anything less than that is Chinese propaganda. If they search for Tienanmen Square and get "pictures of the square without mention of the massacre" they classify that as "pro-CCP". If they get "unbiased historical content" or news coverage about bad shit China does they call that "neutral".

They also don't do anything to compensate for Tiktok's overall censorship, they went looking for massacre and genocide on the platform where people say corn and unalive, they don't compare how Tiktok deals with China vs any other subject.

They did a survey of how pro-China people are and how much they use Tiktok, but don't do anything to adjust for Tiktok being publicly associated with China. They could've put a question in the survey about whether people were boycotting Tiktok for anti-CCP reasons but didn't, which looks like they were fishing for a result.

I remember NCRI from back when they did the study comparing Antifa to ISIS, and they're still doing weird shit like that, if you like Luigi you're "Killing with Applause", colleges being too woke and anti-genocide is the "Corruption of the American Mind", if you do DEI it's your fault white people are racist.

A comparison of the writings of Chancellor Fortescue and Thomas More reveals the gulf between the 15th and 16th century. As Thornton rightly has it, the English working class was precipitated without any transition from its golden into its iron age. https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1867-c1/ch27.htm

The serf, in the period of serfdom, raised himself to membership in the commune, just as the petty bourgeois, under the yoke of the feudal absolutism, managed to develop into a bourgeois. The modern labourer, on the contrary, instead of rising with the process of industry, sinks deeper and deeper below the conditions of existence of his own class. https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/ch01.htm

What makes Marxism communist is structurally you are more brutally exploited than a serf. A lord who kills his serfs stops being a lord, a boss who kills his employees is hiring. That nature of the exploitation left open an opportunity for a minority bourgeoisie to form and replace the lords last time, but this time capitalism doesn't allow room for that. It flattens everything into one homogenized capitalist class and one homogenized working class, so the only possible revolution is those two switching places. If Marx believed you were freer or more powerful than a serf he wouldn't be communist, he would be looking for which faction of workers was going to break out into a middle revolutionary class and replace capitalism with their own system of exploitation.

The announcement trailer for Cold War is built around footage from a television interview, in 1984, between Yuri Bezmenov, the K.G.B. defector, and G. Edward Griffin, the American conspiracy theorist and longtime member of the John Birch Society. In the interview, Bezmenov claims that the Soviet Union was working to subvert the United States by brainwashing American students into becoming Marxist-Leninists. Griffin, now eighty-nine, recently hosted the fifth installment of the annual rally known as the Red Pill Expo, which, the New York Daily News reported, “gathered hundreds of unmasked conspiracy believers, along with militia leaders, Trump backers, anti-vaxxers and religious crusaders.”

Bezemov lost it in the 80s and was working for the Unification Church and John Birch Society saying whatever they wanted, a few years after the interview he killed himself trying to get drunk on antifreeze.

"Schuman had deteriorated both physically and socially … excessive drinking noted … now separated … become transient … now works with lower level fringe groups of little consequence,” said a 1980 report from the RCMP Security Service, the precursor to CSIS.

Odd choice to go with a fake quote on the real date of Khrushchev's probably most famous line about "Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!" which is referencing the communist manifesto

The development of Modern Industry, therefore, cuts from under its feet the very foundation on which the bourgeoisie produces and appropriates products. What the bourgeoisie therefore produces, above all, are its own grave-diggers. Its fall and the victory of the proletariat are equally inevitable.

Arguably "from within" but not anything Khrushchev or obviously Putin does, it's capitalism being a self-destructive loop.

It's both. Many, many issues have 15 people who can explain what they don't like and try to do something about it, and then 15 million people who don't like the same thing but can't explain it, won't try, only vote when they feel like it, and will never see any scolding you try to do.

Yes, Democrats don't know how politics works, they ask Republicans to decide which issues are important, and then argue a slightly more moderate response to those issues is best. Sometimes they accidentally win doing that, if the economy is good and people are happy with moderation, but that's probably not going to be true any time soon.

Wealth tax to collect more money to give to Israel and the most lethal military and killing immigrants is what she ran on, she ran as a right wing populist and lost because Trump is a better right wing populist

Small minded voters are told what to think, Harris refused to tell them to want free healthcare because that shit pisses off donors

That's only because they're designed with passivation to vent tanks and disconnect batteries to remove sources of explosion when they start to die. If that fails the tanks eventually pop from thermal cycling or the solar panels overcharge the battery until it blows up like a Russian satellite did earlier this year.

Leaves out the one catastrophic demand that the US actually cares about

(D) taking appropriate steps to return to United States citizens (and entities which are 50 percent or more beneficially owned by United States citizens) property taken by the Cuban Government from such citizens and entities on or after January 1, 1959, or to provide equitable compensation to such citizens and entities for such property;

"At the beginning of 1959 United States companies owned about 40 percent of the Cuban sugar lands - almost all the cattle ranches - 90 percent of the mines and mineral concessions - 80 percent of the utilities - and practically all the oil industry - and supplied two-thirds of Cuba's imports. ... The symbol of this shortsighted attitude is now on display in a Havana museum. It is a solid gold telephone presented to Batista by the American-owned Cuban telephone company." - JFK

Black beard guy is a Kick streamer called Destiny who was banned from Twitch for asking redneck militias to mow down BLM protesters because he thought BLM was hurting Biden's poll numbers.

Blonde beard guy is Owen Shroyer who works for Alex Jones and went to prison for January 6th.

Uncensored America is a litigation troll that gets student Republicans to invite them to hold a debate, and then announces they're inviting PR disasters like these two so they can sue the university if they try to back out.

The second one is more like what the original razed 17th century mosque looked like. Deng was the one who gave orders to open fire in Shadian, he's not good guy liberal here. Mao's strategy was to yell at people to be atheist. Deng's strategy was a religious red light district. Keep it alienated from secular society, make the mosques look like they were air-dropped from Saudi Arabia instead of having been there for 500 years, and give people the choice to be religious or Chinese but not both.

Starting before Xi China realized that wasn't working, especially in Xinjiang, so the new strategy was to integrate. That means less of Deng's "laugh at this weird foreign religion" architecture and more of "respect China's history of patriots who are Chinese first and Muslim second."

"Other devices" means manually-emplaced munitions and devices including improvised explosive devices designed to kill, injure or damage and which are actuated manually, by remote control or automatically after a lapse of time.

It is prohibited to use booby-traps or other devices in the form of apparently harmless portable objects which are specifically designed and constructed to contain explosive material.

"Booby traps and other devices" is one legal thing, there's no legal distinction. Pager bombs are always a war crime regardless of circumstances.
