If he has now got supreme power couldn't he just declare that the president doesn't have supreme power, and hey presto it's gone?

But at what cost!?

" Several of the researchers are associated with public security authorities in China, a fact that “voids any notion of free informed consent”, said Yves Moreau, a professor of engineering at the University of Leuven, in Belgium, who focuses on DNA analysis. Moreau first raised concerns about the papers with Hart, MGGM’s editor-in-chief, in March 2021.

One retracted paper studies the DNA of Tibetans in Lhasa, the capital of Tibet, using blood samples collected from 120 individuals. The article stated that “all individuals provided written informed consent” and that work was approved by the Fudan University ethics committee.

But the retraction notice published on Monday stated that an ethical review “uncovered inconsistencies between the consent documentation and the research reported; the documentation was not sufficiently detailed to resolve the concerns raised”. "

Weird. So they had written consent forms for the blood samples, but the forms weren't detailed enough(?), and anyway you can't trust anyone associated with the Chinese gvmt? Is that what they're saying?

This seems like weird reactionary virtue signalling.

"wage growth ... could lead to inflationary pressures becoming entrenched"

Never mind the report from the bank of England saying that the vast majority of the current inflation is due to increased corporate profits (price gouging bastards). No, if the struggling poor ask for their wages to keep up with prices then "inflationary pressures become entrenched".

Actually evil. These people have nothing but contempt for you. "You will suffer, and you will say thank you, or we will raise your rent again".

You don't really believe that, do you?

How am I only now finding out that chewing gum is made of fucking plastic?

I've spent 10 years gnashing away on flavoured plastic. This is genuinely upsetting.

So he's finally admitted it. I'm guessing there will be silence from the people that said Israel was definitely going to give Gaza back to Palestine after Hamas was gone.

This post is a disaster.

It says "An experiment in 2020s incentivizing the workplace as a dot-com-era adult playground where work also" three times.

I get that it's embedded or whatever, but reading this post was like having a stroke.

No doubt a fascist done this.

Under capitalism your choice is to sell yourself or become destitute. That's not really a choice, it's just indirect coercion.
