If this were 'murica, just 2 two bedoom apartments. But it’d have to be uniformly distributed.

You’re unaware of the Rape of Africa, which has casualties in the tens of millions if not hundreds of millions depending on how far back you want to count?

That sounds about right for EU education.

France nearly invaded Burkino Faso when they took power back btw. So this isn’t history. At least a dozen African countries are still puppet colonies for European powers and are the sole reason for the EU’s wealth and status.

Put in power literally by US and EU confrontational policies and wouldn’t exist without the westernization of Russia demanded European nations in the 1990s.

Kinda too late to kill your own monster child.

If the EU didn’t fall for US brainwashing about China, they’d already be allies. If literally any EU citizen cared to learn how China’s government actually worked, instead of ‘bing bong winnie the pooh bad’ which is the entirety of the education the average western citizen receives regarding China, there’d be literally no push back to being allies with China; except of course for the fact they’d have to compete fairly with a country that has actually suffered once in its history.

You would have to be literally insane to think the US, literally the personification of the western world representing all of the values, and frankly all of the power, of all European-founded nations that have existed for the last four millennia, is on the same side as Russia – who to be clear wants to be on the same side as Europe and the US but was roundly rejected after the fall of the USSR because of literal racism despite doing every single tiny thing every single western nation asked, much to their own damage; much less China who has been ostracized and victimized by the US and EU for longer than practically any other group.

The US and EU have been the axis of evil in the world. The EU has killed more civilians than Nazi Germany with its wars and previous and continued occupation of ‘free’ nations (that cannot go against their owners’ orders without a military coup); and of course the US was the blue print for the nazis, quite famously even, and has killed so many more people around the world no intelligent person could possibly ever confuse them with ‘good,’ even in opposition to some mythologized evil.

It is the US and EU vs the entire world, as it has been since 1945 when battle lines were drawn that if you were not in central Europe or North America, you were either an enemy or a victim.

The EU can try to weasel their way out of the sinking ship now that the US is just open about everything they’re doing – and that is the only difference MAGA made, by the way, just that the US is too incompetent or uncaring to hide their atrocities – but ultimately there is too much blood staining the hands of every EU citizen to ever be allies with anyone but the US.

At best they weaken themselves and make themself an enemy or a victim to the US, only one or the other exists to the US without the Eurosphere, and at worst they’ll be speaking Russian and dealing with unregulated capitalism by the end of the decade unless they start letting fly the nukes.

China wants a ‘1st world nation’ QOL without exploitation for every citizen, and prioritizes that. Russia wants to enrich its upper class as much as possible, and doesn’t care if they step on EU toes to do so anymore since they WERE NOT REWARDED FOR DOING EVERYTHING THE WEST ASKED in the 1990s, and the US is the exact same as it has always been, except they ran out of victims in the Americas and aren’t being polite about their genocides anymore.

Pick your poison EU.

Except that’s not freedom.

It is not freedom to have a, and this really isn’t an exaggeration, more than 10,000x personal cost for transportation. It’s freedom for the rich, but the rich aren’t a part of society and cannot be generalized into society.

It is not freedom to have to personally rely on the US to do the right thing.

It is not freedom to take on the massive legal and financial risk that is driving a death machine.

It is only freedom in the most infantile, ‘Anarkiddie’ sense of the word freedom. The ‘Hurr durr we’d all be more free if we had less laws’ kind of idiocracy most humans abandon by the age of 15 when they learn about the concept of government.

Except there is absolutely no reason it has to be like that in rural areas. Period. At all. Even a little. Look at China (or if you still believe the NED puts out legitimate stories, Denmark or Sweden or Norway) which has public transit to nearly all rural areas at least a couple times a week, and inter-village public transit in pretty much all villages that have more than a dozen people.

Busses are more efficient than independent vehicle ownership in all settings. All of them.

If I say ‘death to nazi germany,’ it’s pretty clear to people with a functional pre-frontal cortext that I mean that the regime should no longer exist, the state in its current form shouldn’t exist, and anyone wanting to enforce such a harmful ideology likely shouldn’t exist.

Israel, a state younger than the invention of computer programming; a state which was born from terrorism and genocide and just never stopped; a state whose history has not seen a single day of peace, nor been the victim in a single conflict it has been involved in; should not be protected nor praised – its ideology is hate, Zionism is a direct copy of nazi ideology, down to its finest point of taking unrelated esoteric religious practices to justify its monsterous behavior, the only noticeable difference being the poorly defined ‘German’ scratched out hastily and a even more poorly defined ‘Jew’ written in its place like a slur.

There is no overexaggeration of any crimes you have ever heard performed in the name of zionism; there is no actual known limit to their depravity. If you can imagine something awful, the IDF have not only done it, they’ve done it on camera then made a Tiktok dancing in their victim’s clothing afterwards.

The entire society is rotted, and has been since its birth, which again was closer in time to us than the invention of the Jet airplane.

Death to Israel is the only possible moral stance.

I wasn’t aware of the lack of education in Australia, I’ll be sure to write smaller words and sentences when interacting with you all in the future.

…it’s racist to say the East Turkistan movement, created in 1992 by the National Endowment for Democracy, a CIA front organization responsible for hundreds of propaganda outlets and colour revolutions across the many states of America’s and Israel’s enemies, is a terrorist movement, despite the fact it has been linked to more than a dozen instances of violence in Xinjiang, resulting in China’s investment in the region (and the accompanying very harsh treatment of all people in the region, not just the uyghur minority)?

Or are you saying it’s racist to say Uyghurs in Turkey live objectively worse lives than those in Xinjiang? Because then you’d have to take that up with the world bank.

Or are you saying it’s somehow a racist stereotype for Tibetans to be pedophiles? Because that’s just not true, it’s a documented historical fact that the Tibetan theocracy had child sex slaves, including the Lama at the time; if the Dalai Lama is reincarnated, then there’s at least 50 years there where it was documented that he explicitly raped children, regularly, and created an entire Priest class that had exclusive rights to whatever non-Priest-class children they wanted to fulfill their sexual desires. It’s one of the main reasons the civil war started; regardless of how you feel about China’s involvement after the civil war started – so it’s pretty clear that’s not a stereotype in any civilized land, just that Tibetan Buddhism is code for child sex.

So I’m failing to understand what you think is racist about any of this, I suppose I’m saying.

Sure, and it as a practice was pretty much wholesale created around the same time as Monty Python and lasers. It’s not an ancient Indian secret of the gurus on how to better prepare your body to serve the universe and aide your recinarnation.

It’s a moderate workout with mild scientific evidence that it is safe when practiced and learned slowly over a long time. The same as crossfit.

Pretending it is anything more than a way to order your thoughts and slow your heart rate; which reading and journaling both do with about the same scientifically measured effectiveness, is the woowoo part.

It’s not a tie to a spiritual world, or doesn’t raise nor lower your vibration or frequency or whatever nonsense is pushed by which ever nonsense ‘sect’ decides to use it to back their nonsense.

It’s useful in creating a relaxed environment for your body to not overreact and start it’s maintenance functions. And can be useful as a practice to control your thoughts into more useful patterns.

Their admins are literally genocidal zionists who advocate for the eradication of brown people.

I agree, the people in charge of your instance, who happen to full-throatedly support the genocide of the palestinian people, do not however agree. That is something for your to wrestle with, and maybe choose a better instance should you wish to both advocate for or participate in acts prohibited to be discussed by lemmy.world’s rules.

‘Xenophobic’ my guy a culture of ignorance deserves to be criticized.

According to lemmy.world’s rules, as written by the Zionists in charge; advocating for any sort of violence would be against the rules. You have to go to those instances to see both proof of action plus advocating of further action.

My dude half the west believes there’s such a thing as a ‘uyghur genocide,’ half believe Israel has ever been a victim, and most still believe China is somehow a dictatorship despite that being an ancient CIA psyop.

There is no evidence a single person in the west has ever been taught critical thought, how to research claims, or that their government can lie through third parties that they’ve paid.

The real history behind Feng Shui is literally just how to not be as vulnerable to assassins and stubbed toes. The ‘woowoo’ stuff was added by whites in the US in the 1970s (like Yoga, meditation, and all other nonsense.

What could China do that the US dropping more bombs than were dropped during the entirety of WWII didn’t do?

What… what do you think modern Chinese history is? While it’s widely regarded as over, no peace treaty was ever signed. And while the KMT dictatorship lost power across the Taiwan islands in 1981, the resulting pseudo-government that formed afterwards also failed to introduce any cessation of hostilities. Hell right up until 1973 the KMT still wanted to invade the mainland again.

This war, like the Korean war, never ended. There was no formal end to either war, simply a continued pause in the hostilities. Worse, for your position, there is no active ceasefire agreement between the PRC and the pseudo-government on the island. The sole reason hostilities stopped in 1965 was because the US dedicated a carrier group to the area (and all the CIA-backed KMT soldiers that sheltered in Burma were finally routed and slowed their terror attacks down to focus on running drugs). At this point the PRC has dedicated itself to a peaceful unification, which has been the PRC’s position since 1965 when it was clear the few thousand remaining KMT soldiers could do no harm to mainland Chinese citizens and the need to be ever ready for war was taking far too many resources.
