Why do some people like Trump would be a more interesting question tbh.

The more money supporting science, the better.

Of course, America needs to get its game together, but Trump is temporary. The changes Europe just made will be here for a while.

Yes you are right, that is definitely a hook the government can use to push propaganda. It's not clear at all how the Chinese people will ultimately feel about it. Of course, anyone in China with any sense is not talking about it.

The flip side is this. Outside, some prominent Chinese are blaming it on Xi for acting like a mob boss.

I see target rich areas.

Technically, if you have two (or more) molecules of water, then they are making each other wet. If you only have one molecule, then it is not wet, it must find a partner.

Oh, you don't know about Strelkov? You're more ignorant than I thought. (That's not ad hominem, it's abuse. But in this case, it's observation).

Calling someone a comrade is not ad hominem. It's like calling them a friend, or a partner.

They broke away at gunpoint from Strelkov, and you know it.

Well that's very generous of them to Ukraine to be keeping their tanks behind and sending their soldiers forward on motorcycles and scooters then.

Ukraine production has surpassed Russia's, not just in drones. Prepare for defeat, comrade.

As for happiness, the CCP's plan is to tell their people to eat bitterness and win like that. Presumably there is more to it than that.

In particular, the people of China seem more opposed to war than other countries (presumably because the experience of the common person with war has been quite negative). In contrast, the Chinese government is threatening this.

Do you realize that what you are describing is the worst type of nationalism? "They speak the same language as us so we will invade their country and steal their land." That is what Hitler did, and you are supporting the same. The sad thing is you will pretend not to recognize it.

Btw, Ukraine + Europe is now outproducing Russia in war materials, and Russia has largely run out of soviet equipment. So by the end of the year, Ukraine will have won pushed Russia out, and Putler will have the unpleasant choice of whether to use a tactical nuke and lose, or lose without using a tactical nuke.

NIH-funded work is not the same thing as work done by NIH employees.

This isn't an insult contest.

They got fired. Ds were clamoring for Comey to be fired. Then Trump fired him, and Ds got really upset about it.

It was hilarious. Party politics.

Is that the ChatGPT talking, or is it the LSD talking? Either way, why hasn't he built that teleporter yet? This?

I went through Chicken Pox, and I wish I'd had a vaccine so I didn't have to go through that. Vaccines don't cause autism.
