Trying to reduce China’s competitive edge in AI and other advanced computing applications by … giving them easier access to the kind of chips that allow them to increase their competitive edge in AI and other advanced computing applications? Is this more art of the deal?
I’m sorry for the guy but it still takes a white person for this to be news.
He’s also shocked, rightly, at what is considered normal treatment for prisoners and how it is obviously, as you say, deliberate crimes against humanity.
Yes, but in another sense it is news to white people/news white people should hear. They’re the people who are encouraged by the racist nature of today’s murderous kidnappings to think that although such state crimes are horrific, things aren’t so bad because at least it’s not happening to “people like me.”
To be fair I cancelled my trip to the US this year pretty quickly when shit hit the fan. It was a big deal planned for years with my family and my oldest friends.
For two reasons: it can happen to anyone for utterly arbitrary reasons. That’s the nature of “papers please” Gestapo.
Secondly: solidarity.
Looks like the big meet-up is off this year. I did suggest Mexico or Canada. I didn’t think there was a Caribbean island that had flights from everyone’s country that could be affordable.
Also Steve:
Since Superman is Space Jesus, I’d like to offer this up, paraphrasing William Wolfe above:
You either support Superman, or you support the Anti-Christ. There is no inbetween[sic]. Anyone opposing Superman is actively siding with the Anti-Christ.
It’s more or less the same logical fallacy, but I stand by mine because it’s about fictional characters.
Yeah, that too…
It’s looking more and more like the trophy wasn’t intended as a gift, Trump just decided it was. Because he stole a medal that was being handed out:
I don’t know whether Trump has gotten so used to being bribed he just assumes everything is one, or it’s a symptom of his cognitive decline.
I suspect it’s more likely that he thinks he can take whatever he wants because no one will stop him. That understanding may have escalated by now to taking things just because he shouldn’t, more than because he actually wants them.
I did, in fact, predict that. I’m fucking psychic!
He’s looking very strong and mighty with that hunched over shuffle he’s doing in the video where he pockets the medal.
I suspect the latter. He’s zombied over and his reptilian brain is now in control. See shiny thing. Take shiny thing.
That It is It. Plain satânic people.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t see anywhere else this could possibly be posted. WTF.

[Fan reactions] Others went straight for the jugular, suggesting the author had implicated himself. “The one time you take trumps side is to defend child rape?” one user wrote one, as another added, “Sounds like someone has something to hide.”
Now I know how we can get a shitload of listening devices onto Trump and wherever he leaves his shiny things : Spray something with gold-colored paint, jam a bug into it, then wave the shiny thing in front of him. (The FIFA trophy would have been ideal!)
