In this video I will outline why the United States should respect the Treaty of 1646 which ended the Anglo-Powhatan Wars and limited European territory to the land between the Blackwater and York rivers of Virginia
like, in the world? A bit extreme but maybe I can dig it
You can do this for any region of the world to deny that the current country should exist. The UK, EU, America
:nicholson-yes:
haha you're doing fine for the twitter audience, keep up the good work :stalin-approval:
Twitter's audience is weird as the bubbles are a bit harder to see than subreddits. I've started to realise that each twitter channel is basically its own subreddit now (entirely submitted to by its owner) and that's started to make it easier to transfer theory built on reddit to twitter.
What's interesting to me is the audience you can reach with it. If I'm really honest Twitter seems like it's 10x more powerful at reaching large numbers of people than a subreddit, however subreddits seem more powerful at converting people ideologically because downvotes create quite different behaviour.
"Why China is so damn big?"
Idk, genocide of native Americans I think. Maybe I'm confusing it with something else.
I still think France and Germany should be dissolved into their native Gaulic, Frankish, and Prussian roots, because... uh... the Napoleonic colonization was wrong.
The intersection of mayos quivering at the thought of China and mayos having no semblance of objective thought and mayos knowing absolutely fucking nothing about geography
China was always demographically equivalent to all of Europe. There was basically China, India, and Europe. And to a lesser extent MENA and SEA.
If you're gonna complain about China being big, you also have to complain about Canada + USA + Australia + New Zealand + Siberia + Greenland + 1/2 of Latin America (I'm weighting it that way not just genetically, but also because the owners are often literal Spaniards) + 1/2 of South Africa + and while we're at it, all of Antarctica (why the fuck are there mayos claiming Antarctica? You're on the literal opposite side of the world, GTFO) + all of actual fucking Europe, because you're including the borders of Han China in the original amount as well
so between those two China is pretty damn small, even if you hypothetically restored it to the Qing borders. ADDITIONALLY, most of those areas (Tibet, Xinjiang, Mongolia) had been conquered by China while the Brits were still chewing on reeds in swampholes and Romans were making fun of them for it
In fact you could even ask yourself: why does 13% of the population, own 50% of earth's land? :mao-shining:
Yeah. That subreddit is pretty weak, but has a few dedicated and good posters/mods doing good pipeline work :maduro-salute:
It's the new lib thing to claim China shouldn't exist because it's multiethnic (it always has been) and should be split into several different nations. Yes whitey, please tell me all the imperialism China is doing while you're here detailing the borders to divide China into. Yes, go on.
I hang around too many people with weird takes. I know one guy who claims only Cuba is communist, because they're the only ones with indigenous heritage to the areas they claim. All other socialist nations he says should be split apart into smaller nations representing some truer indigenous heritage. Utter nonsense masquerading as progessive values, trying to do decolonization and doing the opposite.
Step 1. Exterminate 95% of an entire continent's diverse native peoples and steal their land
Step 2. Accuse your main geopolitical rival of imperialism for consisting of diverse native peoples
Step 3. Perform no introspection whatsoever
95% cursed Native American burial ground by volume!
America: They only moved the headstones (tm)
Westerners still seething that their last attempt at a unified Western European polity fell apart over 1000 years ago and before that, fell apart more than 1500 years ago.
I mean, the EU is still very much a thing. Losing the Brits hardly counts. They aren't a real country anyway.
Libs being mad at China for slowing down the treat faucet because of covid is the highlight of 2022 for me.
the professionalization of youtube personalities and its consequences :a-guy:
Green and pleasant remains based despite all the liberals attempting to slander it
I propose that we think of China as being the Maximum extent of the Yuan Dynasty. As such, I demand Kiev be returned as a Tributary.
The solution to the Russian Ukraine crisis that nobody saw coming.
* Kyiv
«slams back a White Ukrainian, which is an alcoholic beverage, not the sexual preference, but is also my sexual preference»
Unironically closer to the ukrainian pronounciation than both kyiv and kiev
A ratio is when a responding tweet/comment gets more likes and positive interactions than the parent post. So it's like a ratio, 1/4
It can also refer to the ratio of likes to comments. Like, a comment that no one likes will have few likes and a lot of comments
Ahhh I see, very cool seeing these obvious propagandist getting owned.
taiwan wants that mongolia back. also can you really blame the chinese for what the manchu emperors did :thinking-about-it: qing dynasty even nearly eradicated their own culture group by forcibly spreading them out, wild history fact
Didn't they used to be kind cool back in the day (before they were put on the CIA's payroll)
