I've re-emerged from my posting hiatus just to find out what the hell happened here...
My guess is it must be happening to an extent considering the difficulty in enforcing labour codes in a country of 2bil people. But there’s no evidence of systemic use of child labour the way it used to occur in, say, Victorian England.
Hrrrrnnggh Colonel, I’m trying to sneak around No Man’s Land but I’m dummy thicc and the clap from my ass cheeks keeps alerting the Huns
I became obsessed with tracking my then-husband's location after I caught him in a small lie. When we got divorced, not seeing where he was was hard.
Uhhh, what the fuck?
I feel like his solo podcasts aren’t all that bad. Gets straight to the topic at hand without any meandering. Some of the guests he platforms and his appearances in other media, though, tend to brush up against manosphere territory.
AFAIK, the use of Bharat is considered to be a form linguistic imperialism foisted by the plains-dwellers upon the rest of the country.

It's Philosophy Tube! Rather, a bit about a snooty brit being condescending towards Chinese philosophy in Philosophy Tube's video about Confucius.
"The orientals are incapable of a single original thought in their robotic minds, old boy!"
Can't say I'm surprised. Just a horde of cut-throat individualists in tech, it's a miracle they even reached 1400 members.
There was this huge hullabaloo about Google employees forming a union, but I'm assuming that went nowhere considering how ruthless the company was with it's layoffs. Anyone got the full scoop?
That sounds plausible but I’m not entirely convinced that the Soviets in the 40s could spook the US into mobilising at such scale.
Weren’t the Germans completely routed on the Eastern front post-Stalingrad?
AFAIK, their war lay primarily in the Pacific, and beyond supporting the Brits and Russians materially, I’m not really sure why the US would want to involve themselves physically in the European theatre. I do feel fear of Germans beating them to the bomb might have something to do with it, but that’s just conjecture.
It's not surprising that an encyclopedia maintained by volunteers is heavily biased when the only people with sufficient time and money to volunteer are terminally-online basement-dwellers.
This is hilarious, guy sounds like Jonathan Pie on one of his tirades.
I too remember enjoying Dragon Age II until I was told that I shouldn't by angry online s
Absolutely abhorrent. But yeah, those libertarians can't go two sentences without undermining their own "ideology".
I'd say the sentiment is chauvinistic but then again, Hexbears can have little a chauvinism, as a treat
My reddit brain just instantly wanted to comment r/ABoringDystopia before I managed to stop myself.
I have a lot to unlearn folks...
Lmao, we're in the same boat. I literally had chatgpt spit out like a dozen suggestions before I found what I was looking for
Brightline supposedly represents “The Surprising Success of Private Passenger Rail”
I legit thought it was theory but google just drowned me in a deluge of memes
The first one is, I believe, related to the Spanish Civil War and goes something like "...on any given day, we were fighting the fascists, the syndicalists, the anarchists [or some such variation of denominations]..."
I feel like I might be hallucinating the second one, but it's about this Czech dude who regrets protesting against the Soviet Union for such things as jeans and Hi-Fi systems not realizing that things such as housing were at stake.
Would be really great if you guys could help me out with sources for the above!
From the article: >Nor did Mr. Hussein pay much heed to the fact that the archaeological world cried foul -- deriding his project as Disney for a Despot -- because he was violating their sacred principle of preserving rather than recreating.
Also see (from this Guardian article http://archive.today/ODrqa): >I visited the site in November 2004, just as Polish troops were preparing to hand it over to the Iraqi authorities. The late Donny George, then head of the Iraq Museum, had warned me in Baghdad about the terrible damage done to the site by the Polish military. He was aghast at reports of soldiers filling sandbags with earth containing archaeological fragments; of armoured vehicles crushing sixth-century BC bricks on the Processional Way; of looters gouging out pieces of dragons from the Ishtar Gate; of digging, levelling, compacting and gravelling in this ancient city. “It’s mankind’s greatest heritage site,” he said. “You don’t just start digging it up to make more room for your tanks.”
