dean-smile Is anyone actually bothered by these guys? They do more to show people how liberal foreign policy is just imperialism than I do.

Oh I see, I assumed the article was going to be "north korea is making animated versions of existing films for silly reasons", because the article started with "north koreans are only allowed to use the internet with someone else sitting right next to them and approving every 5 minutes"

Why would they do that instead of pirating it?

Where are the files?

This seems like one of those news stories about North Korea that nobody bothered to think critically about, let alone verify.

Fewer people would be able to afford rent. Either the landlords would have to eat the cost, or sell.

Huh, so is he gonna stop funding genocide? Is he gonna end student loans? Let women get abortion healthcare at military bases? Stack the court? Stop giving military equipment to police? Give me $1200? Federally legalize pot and pardon all cannabis possession/distribution charges?

He barely scraped by in 2020, and that was with people expecting steps towards free college, defunding the police, freeing the migrant concentration camps, and free healthcare. Since then he has only demotivated the base.

A plant doesn't have to be native to benefit local ecosystem, parsley isn't native, but there's a local species of butterfly whose caterpillars love it.

The US has like 10,000 tanks, fields of aircraft, fleets of rotting ships, all in storage.

In the event of a war with China (just as Iraq and Afghanistan), most heavy US equipment would be refurbished stuff, it's cheaper and quicker to upgrade a 40 year old Abrams M1 than build a new M1A2.

I don't think the US even tries to prepare for a scenario where it actually goes through its reserve.
