But politically why would China suddenly reverse their very strict anti-drug policy? If anything it’s been trending stricter over the past decade, an about-turn would just be odd.

Don’t see it in the near future, what would the incentive be?
Reddit discourse is always dogshit. My biggest issue is the anti-women ranting over Alicent’s actions in the final episode, complete lack of media literacy from the internet public.

This one I think
His Dad was, but fell out of favor. Xi grew up in a cave and struggled to join the party.
His later political career almost certainly benefitted from his family connections (after his father was rehabilitated) but he’d also experienced real working-class struggle during childhood.
Feels potentially real to me, corporations love performative allyship, just look at the attempted cooption of pride. I could absolutely see a company prioritising queer hires (in certain industries.)
How much have you heard Corbyn’s voice in Parliament since 2019? No one listens to backbenchers.
No party that wins under FPTP is ever gonna get rid of FPTP, and no one that loses under FPTP will ever have the power to get rid of FPTP.
Yeah, a simple majority is all-powerful in British politics, anything more constitutionally means nothing. The only real value of a larger majority is limiting rebellious fringes of the party from blocking legislation.
Binface is on the right, on the left is a Monster Raving Looney with a puppet.
I hope Starmer’s not allowed to forget that Corbyn got more national votes than him, twice!
Oh no doubt the biggest factor was the undermining by his own party and the media, but his nuclear policy didn’t help. Thankfully I don’t think it’s that big an issue, but it’s an easy card to get right so it annoys me when it’s got wrong.
Let the hogs bray about imaginary geopolitics, I say. I’d just rather our nicer socdems (Corbyn) didn’t shoot themselves in the feet over principles that don’t really matter in practice.
Nuclear policy is imaginary and doesn’t matter - what you write on paper in peacetime means precisely zero if and when shit hits the fan.
It honestly really annoys me that it’s remotely an issue in electoral politics, though if you’re questioned realistically you should just say you’re willing to nuke whoever because you’re never gonna be tested on it anyway.
I think it’s genuinely smart politics for a third party, at least one that doesn’t have the media draw of Farage.
You figured correctly.
Maoists are generally anti-AES (especially China), while Hexbear is very pro-AES.
This inspires confidence
I saw pro-Palestine protesters last time I was in Japan, nothing pro-Israel.
