@conditional_soup If you've heard of the one child policy here's a fun fact none of you "China watchers" know. Most regions and/or minority groups did not get affected. If you were Han or anything in Tibet, or a minority any placd, you could be fruitful and multiply. Just an example of how China deliberately gives minority groups boosted democratic representation, healthcare access, training, and cultural representation. Which is what responsible nations should do (glaring at indian res)

@JohnDClay @turkishdelight Zenz repurposes the pro-life argument that reduced birth rates are genocide to make it look like Xinjiang getting free healthcare & women who had 3 kids already receiving tubal ligations/ etc. is genocide the same way KKK guys think modernity is white genocide. China literally trained these people to be bilingual realtors and stuff like that, it wasn't even a mega trade program or something. They got people to white collar shit Xinjiang is rich
@turkishdelight @CaptainSpaceman Yeah not sure if I'm using this term wrong but is this some kind of "datacenter protectionism"?
@BackOnMyBS yeah when people get hurt and die there's no fun in it unless you see yourself as some sort of bluesy morose reflective type. people who willingly take on unnecessary risks acting like that became disgusting to me. for me it was the car accidents and the blackout drinking. i still can't bring myself to drink because it makes me remember how bad people can get with it. it just doesn't feel safe.
@BackOnMyBS I tried being a risk taking hedonist type person and masking as hard as possible but I just didn't enjoy it and I ended up around people with no respect for the safety of others. They were willing to overlook emotional peculiarities like autism as a result of the same attitude which led to being around legit criminal psychopaths haha
@BackOnMyBS For me it's systematic avoidant behavior. I try to avoid risks so hard it is slowly ruining it 😄
@BackOnMyBS I end up with other people who need someone who is extremely observant of boundaries and is willing to break down communication step by step to avoid misunderstandings. I can't really make it work with people who need a system of emotional outbursts and misunderstandings and reconciliation without clarity.
@conditional_soup *Urumqi god this charlimit is so awful I can do 5000 but 500 is grueling. Sorry for triple tapping ya
