Unexpected a few months ago, but not after recent events. When your leader calls for your movement to end, it can be hard to keep going

You know the conditions for workers who made every item you bought?

Not shocking. Many of these sketchy Chinese companies offer promises of profits abroad, then abuse the workers and drop them somewhere where they have no support system to rely on.

ProPublica did a great series on this earlier this year on the American marijuana industry

News outlets are careful with language because of libel laws. That’s why we have “accused murderer” or “suspected gunman” even when we have footage of the crime

It’s only a non-issue because they already have other bans in place (at least on Americans). It will probably decrease Russian adoptions though

Maybe the headline could be better but it’s a big increase

Like how slapping double digit tariffs on literally everything would be economic suicide?

All thanks to his friend, the US dictator elect

“Lost” seems disingenuous here if we’re talking about casualties. I thought they mean 10,000 died. Ig in the strictest sense of the word they lost then

To be fair, the one child policy is pretty misunderstood by most people

It’s crazy how someone could get to “strong” after being at “holy shit I’ve been secretly gang raped my entire life and the one person I trusted the most was organizing it all”

Is “home brand” an Australian term? I’ve never heard store brands or private labels called that

Beat me to it.

These people probably care as much about the ROI as anything else

All we have to do is make him president elect! We don’t even have to inaugurate him!
