Communists will be thrown off the helicopter on sight Pretty much semi-retired of being a weeb, nothing really interesting coming out probs will come back if something worthy comes to my attention I'm more interested in politics I hate Chinese Cartoons Anilist Letterboxd RYM Steam I watch shit for fun and rate it If you want to bother me go ahead Ratings 10- Almost Perfect, sure there are still flaws but they are minimal to the point it goes unnoticed 9-Amazing, Great work but atleast they have a few flaws that prevent them for being 10s 8-Great, Good works with a lot of attributes but there is several things I may find a bit problematic but still good 7-Good, Works with some interesting concepts which works for the most part but have several glaring flaws but still good 6-Fine, The last thing I consider good but there are many things wrong with it that is blatant but enjoyable 5- Average, Works that may have potential but the pros and cons are equally balanced which I kinda have mixed feeling on 4-Medicore, works where the potential is there but suffers from many flaws that it doesn’t become good and is submerged into points of non enjoyment 3-Bad, poorly done works that have more problems than positives in a great scale where it’s mind blowing infuriating to watch. 2-Awful, works where it was butchered by everything bad of its existence and it only have atleast 1-2 redeeming qualities or ironic entertainment. 1-Abomination, no merit or good outcome of watching/reading stay away |

Politics are always exciting. The sea of politics is eternally chaotic. The Trump administration is making good with its campaign promises so far, but things are never so simple. Tariffs of course met with retaliatory tariffs, so the tariffs have been delayed by a month. Personally, I think Trump could learn a lesson from Milei. Tariffs tend to lead to more tariffs which just leads to reduced trade and higher consumer prices.
Americaid has been temporarily suspended, but who knows how exactly that will go. It may end up being absorbed by the State Department since actually eliminating it fully would require an act of Congress, and I don't know that bill could get through the House and the Senate. Cutting off foreign aid is actually quite popular with the American people. The majority of Americans don't want billions of American dollars going to shithole countries on the other side of the planet when parts of America are poor and suffering. However, the political class and foreign policy experts have widely supported this aid since the early 1960s. Firstly, foreign aid can greatly benefit a country's soft power. When the Soviets gave away Smallpox vaccines for free and helped eradicate smallpox, they gained eternal allies throughout the developing world. Countries that will never stop trading with Russia, never place sanctions on Russia, and will never stop giving them mining contracts. They will never condemn Russia at the UN regardless of anything they do, because they're the heroes who cured smallpox. One reason the US has been very adamant about giving HIV vaccines to Africa (upon which 27 million people currently owe their lives to) actually dates back to the Cold War. The Soviets spread a rumor that the CIA created HIV in a lab to punish black people for having too many kids and annihilate Africa's population. While this isn't true, the rumor was widely believed in Africa and America's public image in Africa plummeted. Sub-Saharan Africa is the only region on the planet that is still growing rapidly in population and has an absolutely absurd level of mineral resources. From a global strategy viewpoint, the big powers want sub-Saharan Africa to like them. Even though those guys are really poor, the region is vitally important. Secondly, it benefits the developed world if the developing world is at least doing kind of ok. They don't have to be precisely as rich as Europe and America, but if those societies collapse, people don't just lay down and die. They're all coming here. Nobody in Venezuela actually wants to learn English, trust their life to a coyote, travel thousands of miles from home and leave everything behind. They do it because Venezuela is such a fucking shithole that they have no choice. If Venezuela was only kind of a shithole, they would all stay in Venezuela. It's the same with Mexico, Haiti, Iraq, Syria, Pakistan, etc. The only long-term way to reduce immigration is to make less places of the world absolutely unliveable shitholes.

I watched John Wick recently and it was dumb fun. It's enjoyable and has good action scenes but sadly not a good movie in terms of writing. The revenge aspect was also pretty underwhelming.
What movies did you watch lately?
Nothing much, I'm watching some mid anime.
What about you?
