Despite my current account being new, I've been around TDW and the .win communities since the start. This is just like my 40th account or so. I get banned often.
KA2 was always a community I visited but not one of my primary communities. I remember years ago, KA2 seemed to have a very diverse community group with a lot of women also. I'd say the politics of KA2 was very bluepilled but with a realization that woke in video games is problematic.
I used to joke that KA2 was full of horned up teenagers that just wanted to see big anime titties and were upset feminists kept censoring their video games.
When I used to post on KA2, I usually got downvoted significantly, had people reply to me very angrily and I'd usually get banned.
Now it seems like through IMP1's nonstop barrage on the community, KA2 has almost become some MGTOW/KA2/ConPro hybrid and it's not even Imp1 anymore posting nonstop anti-women (not just crazy feminists) articles. Even the mods seem to have given up with a lot of stuff they'd have previously banned over.
Now arguably, any "redpilled" community if not constantly censored will kind of divulge into what KA2 has become because as people start to open their eyes to what's going on, this progression might be inevitable but I feel like Imp1 has had a major impact himself entirely that might have ensured the community didn't naturally progress itself but it just driven off a lot of previous members.
How does the KA2 community feel? Everything all good? Or not really as good as it was a couple years ago?
You hate 'em cause you ain't 'em.
More people worship the rising than the setting sun.
I'm not jealous of the clusterfuck of a country that is China.
Chinese people care very much about coming to the US and buying real estate here. No Americans are doing the same in reverse.
We just saw the total clusterfuck of Chinese COVID policy result in enough of a threat to the regime that it caved.
The reason I hate communist china is that they are evil (see: GLF & CR from Mao's time, all the way thorough the Uyghur genocide now) and they want to conquer/dominate the world, so they're going to initiate wars of aggression aimed at asserting their power, which will get a lot of people killed. Hopefully, if we do things properly, the vast majority of the dead will be Chinese.
And yet they have a higher GDP than the US by, according to you, using only 30% of their GDP as a capitalism emulator as you always say.
Yes, they're bad. But so is the USG. And China isn't doing any of that stuff anymore. That "Uyghur genocide" right-wing talking point, I don't know about that.
Pity, they don't know the US had dibs on that.
They'll be bombing Serbia and invading Iraq any moment now.
False. Honestly an embarrassing thing for you to say. No one who knows anything about economics is saying that China has a higher GDP than the United States. The IMF, World Bank, and UN all have the US at $5-7 trillion higher GDP than China.
And don't waste my time coming back at me with "purchasing power parity", which is I know what you plan on doing, that's not a real GDP statistic, it's a derived comparison of the prices of some consumer goods in order to make an argument that even though one country clearly has a lower real GDP, since the prices are also cheaper, the standard of living for a commoner is similar. It's a cope so that poor countries can feel less inferior. This is of course bullshit since many goods have inflexible pricing (a cellphone, computer, or car is the same price everywhere) and on a nation-state level - we are making nation-state level comparisons here - goods are entirely price inflexible. China doesn't pay any less for copper or food imports than America does.
You said a wrong, stupid thing. Don't demean yourself further by doubling down. Take the L and move on.
So not only do you not know how GDP works, you are lying about what I've said in the past. Your memory needs some work. You've got it backwards. About 30% of China's economy (not GDP) is socialist State Owned Enterprises.
The Uyghur genocide is not a "right-wing talking point" it is an accepted fact throughout the world outside of China's toadies. It is beyond dispute that China threw MILLIONS of innocent Uyghurs into concentration camp prisons in recent years after a massive concentration camp building spree in the later half of the 2010s, brought on by a panic in the CCP about the fact that Uyghur birth rates were grossly outpacing Han birth rates, such that over the long term the Han colonization of Xinjiang would be threatened by minority status. So the CCP did its classic overreaction and decided to flex its power of the Uyghurs to forcibly reduce their birth rates and crush their will through mass enslavement and cultural genocide.
Part of this took place through TYPICAL COMMUNIST BRAINWASHING/ "REEDUCATION" unchanged since Maoist times. Part of this happened through literal enslavement. We have seen evidence of public internet posts in the chinese language internet advertising Uyghur slaves for sale internally to factories. These slaves are deported from the prison camps to the factories, forced to work, and not allowed to leave.
There is lots of evidence, but I'm not going to waste the time and effort re-stating all of it here when I know you're bad faith and won't acknowledge it.
If the status quo is what you call the "US conquering the world" then you should be thanking us every day for the extreme benevolence of our "conquest". We are so benevolent that nearly everyone in the world doesn't even believe they have been conquered by us.
Punishing evildoers? No. That's not what China does. They ARE the evildoers. As much as I opposed the NATO (not US) intervention in Serbia, the international press and politicians believed that it was necessary to stop an active genocide. Serbia invaded Kosovo. Iraq invaded Kuwait. Those were ultimately wars of liberation.
China, by contrast, does not use violence to enforce international norms of peace and justice to punish wars of aggression and conquest. Instead, it aims to build its own empire through violent conquest and thereby overthrow the international order we have today under which all nations can thrive.
Oh wow, a few globalist organizations said so?
You predicted right. You need grain, water and milk to survive. You don't need cellphones, nor do you need as many of them. So PPP is by far a more reasonable estimate of the people's income than something based on official exchange rates, which are inflated in China's case anyway.
As overeager as ever, but your bravado is wasted on me.
Either it's my memory, or I am 'lying', but not both.
So capital goods rather than GDP. It would seem to follow that less than 30% is from state-owned enterprises, considering that they are likely to be more inefficient than the private enterprises. Still, it's pretty kickass if China can outdo the US with only 70% of its economy in capitalist mode.
I don't know man, I remember evidence that the famous picture of a 'concentration camp' was just photos of prisoners. The "CHINA CHINA CHINA" crowd will pick on anything to make the CCP look bad, as if they needed your help. That said, the US is no better.
This just seems outlandish and extremely unlikely.
No, I'm not 'thankful' at all for being an occupied vassal country. I'd rather be independent. I'd rather not have European pipelines be blown up and then blamed on MEH RUSSHER, if you don't mind.
You suddenly have respect for 'the international press'. C'mon man, you are better than that. You claim that Clinton did it because Europe. Let me assure you that European politicians don't give a wooden nickle about an 'active genocide'. That is certainly no reason for them to start bombing a place.
WUT?
Invaded its OWN country. Kosovo has always been Serbia.
By your retarded reasoning, Russia was 100% justified in invading that corrupt puppet shithole non-country of yours, because it was attacking the Donbas.
I note how you ignored that I was talking about the Iraq War of 2003, not 1991. Or rather, you were trying to be clever.
I can agree with expelling Iraq from Kuwait. But not with the economic terrorism inflicted on the country afterwards, nor with the war of 2003 - led by the Republicans you claim are so great.
How many countries has China invaded since 1980? Zero as far as I'm aware. And the US?
The 'international order' is just your empire. Butg I don't want to live in your empire. I want liberty.
