I live in Florida and am interested into meeting people that sail with the intent to be a hand on a sailboat for the experience and training. I know nothing about sailing nor do I know anyone that is into it. How can I get into the scene to meet people and feel things out?
Outside of the many publications, conferences, symposia, and discussions in the lay media on this topic over multiple decades, they've been completely ignoring it. Shameful.
To an extent, but you expect demands for hegemony from western imperialists.
In the Hong Kong case, it's the government - an agent of the people - which is just enforcing the desire of the people to praise the revolution. It's not that the kids can't sing softly. It's that if they sing softly it's because of the lingering influence of the colonizers. Therefore they need re-education until their minds are properly free.
My husband who disappeared years ago is actually alive and well and conspiring with his friends to downvote my posts and comments. I think he drives by my house from time to time as well.
He is in cahoots with my family, who have custody of my child, to stop my child's DNA from getting added to a genealogy website because that would prove that he was conceived from incest with a distant relative when I was very young.
The main error here is thinking that because some women are motivated by money that we can generalize that to all women. And then use that to justify general misogyny.
There are horrible women and horrible men in the world. Prejudging everyone in a class because some members of the class are horrible is wrong.
I'm curious what you mean. Hasn't Hezbollah been targeting Israel for decades? There's already been the South Lebanon Conflict and the 2008 Lebanon War.
What will they find out that they didn't already know?
The discussion was specifically about what Hezbollah would do to Israel in a new war and not how fault should be parcelled out for their long-running conflict.

Most of the audience laughed at this Jeselnik joke. Usually groaning followed by laughter. It's not starving kids, but it's in the same vein.
Got to walk around a little bit today. Saw a baby. Saw a baby locked inside the back of a hot car. So it’s been a great day. Love that. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not a monster. I tried to help the baby. Tried to throw a rock through the window. Window was down. Ruined that baby’s whole weekend. It was worth it.

Feel guilty for getting captured by one set of murdering lunatics and then freed by another set? Why? What was their misdeed? Going to a concert? Surviving a massacre?
At least the CCP is open to criticism and debate about their actions back then.
If you go to Tiananmen today, you will see and hear a lot of discussion of this troubling time in China's recent history. Sure, sometimes the debate about one party authoritarian rule vs the colonial nature of Western-style democracy can get heated, but there are police around in clearly marked uniforms to make sure it doesn't get out of hand. Never again!
Recent voter surveys say between 14% and 22% of under-30s would vote for the far-right Alternative for Germany party in the upcoming European elections. But who are these potential voters?...
If they only had a multi-party democracy in Germany, then there would be a progressive party which could attract a huge swath of votes. Instead they are stuck with only a center-right and a far-right party.
Every election the center-right says the progressives must vote for them to keep the far-right out of government, so there is never a chance for the true left to get representation!
If they had multiple parties the will of the people would be heard and a utopian society would soon emerge.
Yes, I know this. My comment was a sarcastic broadside at all the people who think progressive causes are widely popular and only suppressed by neoliberals working in cahoots with fascists.
