There is one mega-union (the only permitted one) with officials appointed by the CCP. It’s essentially a sham, like the non-CCP parties in Congress that are nominally a type of opposition but can never hold any real power.
And yes, it is ironic and sad. Nordic countries are more communist than China is. China doesn’t even have truly free healthcare like Canada etc.
Yeah, it’s bad. There are fewer worker protections and unions are illegal.
Hilarious. The MAGA movement is like a fractal of grifts.

Blackmail is a terrible way to attract investment to your country. This is like Elon suing advertisers who left Twitter after he told them to fuck off.
Jakarta is seeking to boost investment from foreign tech companies with restrictive measures that require their phones to be 40 per cent sourced from parts in Indonesia.

Same. I wouldn’t put this past Hamas at all, but I’m going to need another source.
I don’t know how price sensitive you are, but check out Asket.
Who are these articles for? All those MAGAs who feel strongly about climate change, or Dems who would have voted for Trump if he’s commit to GHG reduction?
I’m not surprised the Corsair is better - it looks like there’s a whole nvme drive in there.
Interesting that they are/were both black. Is there a genetic component?
What’s that number in words?
Per the article, it’s 20 decillion.
Last time someone did that it triggered a conflict between Serbia and Albania!
