I'm pretty sure it was Venture on an Atari.

Malt vinegar or that pepper sauce from steak n shake. Well the generic from the grocery store, but it's the same thing.

Very unserious understanding of world politics.

Of course they're viewed more positively in middle income than high income countries. The high income countries are all part of a global military alliance focused entirely on destroying communism and have fed their populations anti-communist propaganda for decades.

They're one the main geopolitical adversaries of the political block that all the rich countries have formed, whereas they are investing in and helping develop poorer countries.

It is an absolute laugh though that all the countries that destroyed the Middle East over the last 30 years think China is a threat to world peace.

Democracy is when everything sucks and gets worse every year while centrists keep eyeing Nazis as possible better allies than the left.

If you force the government to improve society in any what you're an "authoritarian" (oooh, how scary. btw, I'm pretty sure "authoritarian" as a cudgel against the left that equates them to the right is against board rules).

Peaceful revolution is when you burn 48 people alive in a building while a mob of neonazis keeps them from leaving.

Why is it necessary to cancel all consular services for Ukrainian men if they're so eager to fight? Are you sure the bloodlust and desire for battle you're perceiving isn't your own?

Different ways, I usually say boo-jwah, bur-jwah is also one I've heard though.

OK, so China has looked out for its own interests and created an economic advantage for a fraction of its own population.

If lifting hundreds of millions of your poorest into the middle class is just naked self interest, why are Western countries so unwilling to do it? Are they stupid?

The modern American fascist is too soft to hear dissenting opinions.
