      Taiwanese press described

      Well shit, if the state that did the 228 Incident and the 40 years-long White Terror totally pinky swears their main rival is doing something sketchy to muslims, what possible reason do I, an enlightened free American who definitely does not live in a country where six corporations control all major media, have to doubt them?

      Anyway, you hear about all those babies the savage Hamas terrorists beheaded? Pretty fucked up, we need to support our staunch ally in their open genocide of muslims. Why no, I have not considered the political implications of these two seemingly disparate pieces of information, why do you ask?

    Why is it not forced labour when US prison population does it? Why not when the job centre forces you to do two weeks unpaid work for Tesco or else your benefits will be cut off?

    We know why.
