Yeah. Everyone in the show is a POS.
You don’t think so?
Watch interviews of anyone that has had access to the classified US presidential news feed.
Like which ones?
Word is that Morales wants to primary for his party so he can be president next term but Arce does not want that so it was a bad ruse to boost his popularity. Lot of speculation though. Will be watching how it goes from here.
They are probably talking about things like this: https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/palestine-action-break-arms-factory-and-blockade-weapons-investor

I feel like everyone is missing the point. When a man masturbates, it is not for the hand to feel good. Whichever hand he uses to masturbate with is the hand that not going to be the hand that is relaxed. Owing to the rigorous masturbation of course.
It’s like The Secret but instead of thinking really hard about your dreams and making a vision board of them you don’t think about them at all and your dreams come true.
He’s talking about military personnel. These numbers don’t include civilian deaths for obvious reasons.

It’s similar to the USA but they don’t have a hate mob going after trans people cause they hunt fascists down for sport. There are many very positive interactions with trans people on national TV and they don’t stir shit about “the controversy” like in the West. Discriminatory remarks against any group, including gay and trans people (upheld explicitly for LGBT people by some law according to the Peoples Daily) isn’t allowed on national media and is strictly enforced. The media culture generally is very positive versus controversy seeking in comparison to the West.
Also, no overt genocidal shit like Russia or Florida or something. Just general ignorance and knowing little about trans people. From what I’ve read from advocacy groups they think awareness has gone up a lot recently and they believe there will be a big shift in LGBT laws in China by 2030ish when the old cohort retires from the CPC
And Cuba has the best LGBT laws on the books and they did it in short work after their old cohort died off, wouldn’t be surprised to see China do similar
Really want to emphasize the hunting fascists down for sport part. There are online communists like us that, as a hobby, track down and report online fascists to the police, and there are tangible records of arrest from them doing that. I actually got in touch with one of these people and asked them about the LGBT situation among the youth and they seemed very positive about the progress.
I’ve also talked with some rural trans chinese people and there is a very unfortunate and depressingly limited access to HRT outside of tier-1 cities. From what I understand, no one really becomes homeless like they do in the USA, housing is very cheap. Its also relatively easy to move to tier-1 cities, and there is a support network of trans people that help people do this and have lists of supportive doctors like they do in the USA. Self medicating is unfortunately very common outside of tier-1 cities, the black market, interestingly, is online and you must buy a potted plant that has HRT in a plastic baggie in the dirt (wild, there are lots of gardening jokes in trans spaces as a result). Phytoestrogen cocktails are also a common way of self medicating and there are guides online to make highly estrogenized teas. There are also menstruation products sold in pharmacies with high amounts of progesterone and estradiol and require no prescription, so they take these as well. Spironolactone and cypro are usually prescribed by dermatologists in China, so if you are sneaky you can get a dermatologist to prescribe them for acne and take over the counter birth control, though this option is still relegated to cities that do not have doctor shortages.
Legal transition is a bit depressing, it has roughly the same laws as most southern states (re: you need surgery for gender marker change) and it also requires your family (!) to sign off on it and nullifies any marriage you currently have (like pre-gay marriage America). I do know there is a trick to get married to some trans person and then designate them as your family for the signature (and then the marriage will be nullified, so many friends do this), and you can ask your doctor to verify you had ‘the surgery’ (nebulous definition, like in America) and get your marker changed via that without surgery. This requires knowing a trans accepting doctor, which there are lists for.
I agree with you in essence but there are a lot of differences between USA and India in this context. Prep and tuition fees are inhibiting for most of the potential aspirants but they are much lower than in the US. The result is that way way more people are able to prepare for and take these entrance exams. In the US on the other hand, you first need an ultra expensive undergrad degree, then medical school applications and interviews and so forth. In India, massive tutoring companies are the beneficiaries. Allen Career Institute for example posted a total revenue of about INR 20,000,000,000 last year and there are four or five other companies like this along with the god knows many small businesses and individuals in this sector. All this for preparing high school students for entrance exams. There is a city called Kota in Rajasthan where:
Over 150,000 students from all over the country flock every year towards the city for preparation of various exams such as IIT-JEE and NEET-UG etc.
(Hostels in Kota are outfitted with special ceiling fans designed to prevent suicide by hanging.)
Those who are very wealthy and want to skip this process do one of two things. They either study abroad. Or study in private colleges where admissions can be bought but they are usually not considered prestigious, not that it matters to those already with a lot of wealth. There is little advantage that an extremely wealthy aspirant has in these exams compared to someone who is moderately wealthy or even just upper middle class.
These exams are rather meant as a bottleneck between an extremely large number of aspirants and an extremely low number of vacancies in higher education. The exams are very difficult to present an illusion of meritocracy but the “competitiveness” is a foil for a weak and wanting education system.
Yeah. I didn’t mean to imply that kids who can’t tell ass from mouth should have their career locked in at the age of 18.
Thanks
It’s not India comparing itself. At least not in this instance. It’s a study by Amartya Sen et al. The rationale is explained:
When development planning began in China after the revolution (1949) and in India after its independence (1947), both countries were starting from a very low base of economic and social achievement. The gross national product per head in each country was among the lowest in the world, hunger was widespread, the level of illiteracy remarkably high, and life expectancy at birth not far from 40 years. There were many differences between them, but the similarities were quite striking. Since then things have happened in both countries, but the two have moved along quite different routes. A comparison between the achievements of China and India is not easy, but certain contrasts do stand out sharply.
Cannot fathom caring about a blatant genocide so they have labelled everyone who does a bot
