Also, "where do you go to church?"

That's required by the employer.
- Comment on Never ever ask out a retail worker 5 days ago:
Sometimes we project things onto people on our subconscious projections of ourselves. Maybe she was or wasn't interested. I remember your posts from before, and hope you took advice to get into therapy and are doing the dirty work none of us actually want to do until we start seeing results.
Maybe your own body language and facial expressions cued her to your subconscious self-perception or projection.

Ohh, the rich who were monetarily affected by Chinese policies that made the field more level and then tell tall tells as CIA prefers.
Here's another perspective, if you can bother: https://www.qiaocollective.com/education/xinjiang
- Comment on China calls for Maduro’s immediate release, accuses US of breaching international law 5 days ago:
USA acknowledge and support One China Policy when it became convenient for corporations, under Carter. Now it's inconvenient for the same businessmen and regular people continue to dance on the strings of the uberwealthy puppetmasters and the rich who leave nations because of personal wealth either being affected or potentially affected. Same with Batista Cubans, Venezuelan and Chinese expats.
And there is also a reason so many Vietnam vets now reside in Vietnam, full time.
- Comment on China calls for Maduro’s immediate release, accuses US of breaching international law 5 days ago:
Perhaps we're not used to it blatantly being displayed. This is who the US is, was, and unless addressed successfully, always will be.
- Comment on Saudi-backed forces make advances in Yemen's Hadramawt says military 6 days ago:
So telling that USA allies are KSA, Da'esh and an illegal genocidal state.

- Comment on US Trade Dominance Will Soon Begin to Crack 1 week ago:
On the plus side, maybe the notion of American Exceptionalism will diminish a bit, which is long overdue.
Hope is a powerful thing, and I fervently hope so!
- Comment on US Trade Dominance Will Soon Begin to Crack 1 week ago:
I feel like most people are so far gone they couldn't even begin to connect with their honest human self outside of the traditional indoctrination we all receive from our national cultures.
Thinking about Lemmy and most people around me, it seems like it.
- Comment on US Trade Dominance Will Soon Begin to Crack 1 week ago:
Lol; that's what the EU common people said about too big to fail, too.

- Comment on Is there a point we can track down when we stopped caring about doctors, nurses, teacher, etc? And thought it was a great idea to pay atheletes millions and screw everyone else? 1 week ago:

- Comment on Midwife leading Nottingham maternity inquiry charging NHS up to £26,000 a month 2 weeks ago:
This bothers me knowing that people with cancer diagnoses can't pay rent, eat nutritious food, have basic wound care supplies, or get to medical appointments.
Not that it's better where I am on the other side of the pond, mind you, just saying most of the world's priorities are seriously out of order.
- Comment on Every TV show or movie with a story about rich people doing weird, messed up stuff is probably happening IRL to rednecks in some poduck shitberg town on a smaller scale. 2 weeks ago:
Podunk. And none of these things are class, race, or gender conscious, maybe not age. It depends on socialization and how the brain is wired. So if it's not you (us), you (we) hit a genetic and social lottery, and/or did a lot of work on ourselves.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
And huge retail conglomerates.
- Comment on What is the moral jurisdiction behind not wishing who're rich and in executive positions to die? 3 weeks ago:
So is killing them unless there's an actual revolution, and without years of laying the groundwork, you may be more unhappy with whomever seizes power.

Venezuelan fishermen's families may disagree.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
I've been extremely pleased with librewolf, and never disable ootb settings.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
That's not true at all. A fishy smell indicates an infection, sexually transmitted or otherwise, and a need to see an ob/gyn to obtain a diagnosis and prescription. The armpit smell is probably just normal sweat, it gets hot in the area.
- Comment on at what point in life it's too late to go back to school? 3 weeks ago:
I was in college with a retiree decades ago. A coworker old enough to retire told me today she's thinking about going back for a lmsw.
