Ironic that wikipedia claims that the U.S. has less water stress than China is.

I think I’ll bring a second boat for my family and friends, we can hitch our sardine container capsules together.

“We didn’t lost in Vietnam, we just pulled out”

That’s part of why I have a hammer and sickle tattoo. If or when China ever liberates the U.S., they’ll see my tattoo and know I’m on their side.

I would fucking swim to China naked in shark-infested waters if I have to.

Same. Can I get on board?

Just because things were more tense and nothing happened doesn’t mean history will repeat, or exactly the same as before. Things are fluid.

I think that’s kinda naive and short-sighted. A powder keg is always eager

That’s what I’m thinking.

Always has been

More like the latest, knowing the U.S.'s war mongering attitude.

I imagine that the continued trade that China has with the U.S. is still very important, so I don’t see China cutting it off until absolutely necessary.

I’m making like a banana and shitting out of here.

As an Amerikkkan, it’s confusing and anger-inducing.

You have fair points.

As much as I hate liberals, sometimes lately I wonder if they have a point that Trump and the rethuglicans actually will be able to destroy the extremely miniscule amount of freedoms or privileges that Americans enjoy.

Not that voting is the end all be all, or that Kkkopmala Harris isn’t probably worse, but regardless.

They do, but I have a special hatred for MAGAlickers because they seem more supportive of it.

I agree, reminded me of that quote from Carlin as well.

Isn’t the Trump hat more evil than the dark mark?

I’m not a Harry Potter fan and I hesitate to compare real-life to fiction, but regardless.

I do view MAGA hats as equivalent to Nazi paraphernalia. Don’t get me wrong, both democrats and republicans are neoliberal far-reich douchebags, but the amount of hatred I have for MAGA-lickers is special. They throw my people into concentration camps on the southern Amerikkkan border.

I have similar thoughts. I think that unfortunately, the U.S. will remain the dominant power for a long while. I remain hopeful that it’s for less time than most of us think, but I still see years bare minimum, possibly decades.

I’d love to be wrong, and as Lenin said, sometimes years worth of history happens in weeks.

I don’t want any of us to become dispirited if the time until imperialism collapses doesn’t follow our schedule.
