Sounds like national chauvinism, the idea that Americans need more luxury goods than everyone else, and that there’s no way no how you’d ever lower your already completely “fair” level of consumption.

Von der Leyen is a hitlerite and the fact she was any near that position should be evidence enough that the EU is an absolute mess.
Some pavements in the UK are shared right of way with cyclists and ringing your bell is the correct thing to do and that’s why it’s there, so you don’t sneak up on someone and cause an accident.

Fucking get a grip, women have had to deal with way more shit historically and contemporarilly and haven’t become shit heel fascists and bigots. This is male supremacists upset at their power slipping away from them, and yearning to take a firm hand of the whip.
Women get raped and harassed, men get the weepies for not being able to fuck or get a job, turning them into fascist little hitlerites. Get a fucking grip.
Now break that shit down per capita, and also try and account for the fact that China is a huge manufacturing hub for the entire world’s consumption, you jackass.

Me when my country still has lynchings of black and brown people, had horrific racial discrimination during the worst of the USSRs excesses, has the highest per capita incarceration rate of overwhelmingly black and indigenous people, is responsible in part for the deaths of over 1 million Iraqis, put Japanese Americans in concentration camps during WW2 just in case they were spies, genocided their native population and still effectively operates apartheid for the remaining natives, supports the ongoing genocide of Palestinians, locked up and tortured MENA people without trial post 9/11 in an offshore torture camp, ran black sites all across Iraq and Afghanistan doing more torture of brown people and on and on and on and on and on and on…
Marx’s Capital mentions at one point that the working class in Manchester were reliant on drugs like opium to cope with their insane working conditions and poor life/housing conditions.
It’s not a new thing at all.
The spectrum of autism isn’t mild to disabling.
It’s a spectrum of presenting symptoms. What “functional autism” is, is a constellation of symptoms that means you can just about navigate the world as expected by neurotypical people. “Non-functioning” autism or “profound” autism are where the constellation of symptoms makes you unable to function in the world. This is more often than not inclusive of non-verbal autisms and poor motor control autisms.
“Functional” autism can be disabling for the individual in certain conditions - they may be completely unable to read social cues, or be severely impacted by certain stimulatory environments.

When the west give as much of a shit about the Muslims in their own countries as they do Muslims in China I’ll give these clowns a modicum of time.
Zero possibility that this friend lied?
Some people love to lie especially if it gets a rise out of people. “Defectors” including the likes of Yeonmi Park from the DPRK also are financially incentivised to lie. I know people that lie about shit in the UK to make things sound worse than it is, and they will swear up and down it’s true after being called out on it.
