  • Absolutely. It is literally the main argument that climate denialist parties in Sweden make. Idiots claim that we shouldn’t do anything to reduce our carbon emissions in Sweden, because it’s countries like India and China that emit all the CO2.

    They conveniently ignore the fact that the average Swede emits twice or more as much CO2 than the average Indian. That’s also ignoring stuff like exported carbon emissions.

    If every nation thinks that climate change is somebody else’s problem, then we’re all going to burn. If you can reduce your carbon emissions sustainably, you need to do it now.


  • Obviously the main issue in Taiwan is China relations.

    Usually minor issues can find representation via multiple parties in Europe. Two parties in the same “Chinese independence” coalition could differ from each other on more minor issues.

    From what I can understand from skimming Wikipedia, I guess NPP fulfills this role a bit, but it’s tough when a majority of the seats in the legislature are decided by FPTP.

    Taiwan probably needs an electoral reform towards a more PR-based system like those found in Sweden and Germany.





  • Oh wow, the US state department was mediating with Ukrainian politicians during a revolution, very cia, much wow.

    The implication that the US State department somehow has billions of dollars to… make Ukraine join the EU?? How or why would Barack Obama’s State Department do that? Sending a bureaucrat into an unstable post-communist country isn’t going to magically create a puppet government.

    You can wrongly call me a fascist all you want, but that doesn’t change the facts.

    Here’s a recap of Ukrainian post communist history that the Russians don’t want you to know:
