Yeah, a part of his trip was probably spent looking at housing in his price range in Florida.
I tell terrible jokes.

It’s not really a struggle session if it is just you having it. Seems more like a personal grievance that way. If someone who is far right said the sky is blue, would you assume it must be green? Facts are facts, we shouldn’t refuse to look at them because someone we despise is saying them. If you’re worried about empowering the far right, the worst thing you could do is refuse to look at reality because occasionally some far right nutter talks about it instead of their usual drivel.
I wonder if he’s been a victim of anti-Chinese racism? I doubt the average yank would care enough to notice if the guy they’re hurling slurs at is Chinese or Japanese. And he’s probably old enough to remember the last wave of anti-Japanese racism in the 80s and 90s.

Damn, sometimes they just really have those little mask slips and reveal their true agenda.
It is well known that actually being in China hampers the ability to write about it, due to communism brain waves or some such. They’ll be able to tell us the truth about China now without any of that pesky Chinese interference!
A forever war that wastes Russian resources and feeds the MIC was always one of the major goals of this conflict. I’m not surprised to see Ukraine escalate in horrific ways as peace negotiations get closer and closer to a resolution. Their masters in Washington would never allow it.
I know, I agree with you on that, but I guarantee that the lib above’s point is that Russian==Bad, no thought involved.
That’s the story I heard behind the haircut, he still needed working class votes in order to win election.
Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister of the UK. He had a haircut that looked like he’d been attacked by a seagull as an attempt to appear more “down to earth”
I think it’s more for them than for us. They don’t expect to change minds, they’re just saying “these people are wrong and dumb and I am smart and see things for how they really are.” It’s self-soothing more than trying to educate someone. They don’t know how to handle information that doesn’t fit into their worldview, so they dismiss it without thinking about it.
There is a level of caution that should be exercised, sure, but we shouldn’t dismiss everything out of hand (especially since “independent” third party sources are often even worse with their information.)
When I said “if true” I meant more “if it is accurate” not that I think it is a lie by the evil Russians. News coming out of a Russian person’s mouth doesn’t automatically make it fake (which is what the lib above is saying)
looking into it.
I’m so glad this post was found by brilliant lemmy libs here to teach us right from wrong. I was almost tricked by ebul Putin!
I think it’s the Bojo thing, he’s trying to pretend to be working class by giving himself an embarrassing haircut.
Very alarming if true.
Get a fucking comb man! Your hair is violating the Non-aggression principle!
Japan has a chance to do something incredibly funny
I don’t know if there is specific reading on that, but I don’t really see why they would have issues. The border between the two nations is almost impassable, so it wouldn’t likely have any real border disputes. And China generally doesn’t care about the ideology of their neighbours, as long as they aren’t actively disruptive or antagonistic. I don’t think it would be a problem, unless they are the kind of “Maoist” who are funded by the CIA.
These are just my initial thoughts though. I doubt it would really affect much, unless the Maoist nation was especially belligerent, which isn’t at all unique to Maoism, any nation could be that way.
*Most of my knowledge of Nepal comes from hearsay from people who aren’t particularly politically minded, so I wouldn’t claim to be an expert at all.
I think they might be at “scraping the barrel” at this point.
