Narrator: They did not, in fact, request anyone get along.

Fuck yeah!

I see what you mean then, but nobody’s gonna buy that. China certainly won’t. Also most Han Taiwanese people have nothing to do with the Kuomintang, with Han migration going in since the 13th century, so the line of who is a native and who isn’t is much blurrier than it sounds.

You have that much faith in Americans? Because I sure as hell don’t.

Israel’s current public-facing goal is to indefinitely occupy Gaza, and their real goal is genocide, so Hamas surrendering would simply mean fewer people lobbing IEDs at Israel while they murder and displace Gazans. Israeli ethnic cleansing created Hamas, not the other way around.

You answer that. Who are “they” and why should they be considered refugees?

and stay there with refugee status

Uh… that’s not what refugee means.

Cope.

I’m pretty sure the vast majority of English speakers know about Hitler not getting into art school.

You might be small c conservative, but there’s no time period where you’d be capital C Conservative; those guys have always been defending and furthering at least one abhorrent system or institution. Monarchy, slavery, segregation, neoliberalism, you name it.

The government can “lose” all the money they want; it’s the people’s tax money going down the drain. Tyranny needs to be stopped in the streets.

That’s true, but also not relevant.

I think you’ll find that labor movements function better without government crackdowns.

Of course they’re coming for the right to strike.

Forced strikes, aka when you’re fired.

What do they say about fucking goats again?

I mean the pyramids were wholly improductive multi-decade undertakings, so that’s not making the point you think it’s making.

Not only would China fare even better, I suspect that it’d be much harder to say that America’s reputation is falling apart, because it’d be clear that most (or at least a good chunk) of the world hates America no matter who is in charge. I find it weird that articles like these try to paint a global narrative using data only from countries that were favored by past admins, and which would therefore be most likely to negatively react to Trump’s isolationist agenda.

Away from China’s what? China being basically an information blackhole and their foreign policy not being very flashy means there’s usually little to pay attention to in the first place.
