Glaciers melting in the dead of night

> More than 900 Chinese "final warnings" had been issued by the end of 1964.

Lmao

One can only hope they are.

Oui, c'est le sujet.....

They are talking about the small diameter glide bombs attached to surplus rocket motors and launched from HIMARS launchers that we have provided in large quantities to Ukraine. Range is 150km or about 93 miles.

With a black hole so big you might as well witness the end of the universe and even survive falling into the gravity well, due to time dilation and evaporation.

> If so many people are saying the same thing you should open to the possibility that the idea has merit.

If it's only coming from one group, it means it's propaganda. The "so many people" just means CCP apologist who consumer Chinese state media as their main source.

> The CCP clearly fears mass media

Yes, all dictatorships and one party systems fear truth so they control news and information.

>History is full of examples of powerful people manipulating the masses with simple messages to a devastating result.

Yes, just look at Communist China!! Or Nazi Germany. Or Russia today and USSR in the past!

>This happens not only against communism (which had been under attack by powerful people for decades before the creation of the CCP btw)

I thought you would be smart enough on the topic to know that USSR also did the same. The first communist country.

Simply amazes me the lies and misleading statements someone will keep making.

>I'm not sure why it's so hard to accept I don't have one prefered source of media, I mostly read whatever I see on Reddit

Confirmed, your main sources are just the CCP media or any news that you want to cherry pick in favor of China. This is a common tactic by all the people like you -- not just CCP apologist but communist, alt-right, etc and those that have been brainwashed such as in Russia, China, North Korea, etc.

Again, it's exactly what all of you do. You won't ever acknowledge the sources you trust most because you understand that people will know you use questionable sources. Or worse, you name an actual valid and reasonable source, the other person will just point you to many stories in that source that will prove you wrong and you will have to accept those facts or admit you lied.

>I don't think your distrust of independent journalists is warranted.

I don't have distrust on all of them. Some are good. But it's clear when someone is acting like you are that you are very likely using terrible indepdent journalist that have an extreme bias for your side.

>There are thousands upon thousands of people reporting on the positive and negative aspects of everyday life in China. Just go on YouTube and search around for videos of life in China, it's clear that there is no cohesive narrative being driven

Youtube isn't allowed in China. So what they are posting has to have at least the indirect approval of the CCP or else they will get in trouble. Brainwashed people like those under China's firewall might think the reason they can't find any youtuber inside of China posting negative things is because there are no negatives things in China. Everyone else knows that it's because their is direct and indirect censorship. Post positive videos, stay safe. Post negative videos, risk being punished. Post a negative video about hot topic issues like the Uyghur genocide, get sent to prison.

They could keep the retirement agar at 62 and pay people there pensions properly..OR send in a million police and the cost of that will force the retirement age be raised

Not sure how folks felt during the Cuban Missile Crisis but modern day me is completely desensitized. Hey Vlad, ya pussy, cool.

What you're saying is that Putin is actually just a(n overly) sensitive little soul, right?

(Mmm, which is a little worrying, because I've just remembered: that's exactly how my girlfriend described herself to me... Maybe time to sleep with one eye open, I think.)

Hey everyone, I'm a sniper with over 400 confirmed kills! AMA!

Everyone looks at Putin while signing NATO application.

If true, that warms my heart.

I've never heard it called a "crowd" before.

Never believe anything until the Kremlin denies it

Look, I hate whataboutism but they didn’t say that the situations are the same. Who the f would argue that? Looking at America’s policies, enforced ignorance and terror against the population are quite accurately on display. It’s just a matter of degree.

I can list rationale for both but I get the sense that it’d be wasted effort based on your engagement with this person.

Hawking radiation is an extremely slow process, for a black hole to evaporate through it takes a time frame that a human being simply can’t understand. On top of that, larger black holes take longer to disappear than smaller ones, so in this case it’s not really a concern for it.

Usually the limiting factor is on the ability to get big rather than stay big, if that makes sense! This one is a little bit below what we currently would consider the upper limits, though of course that may just be due to a lack of understanding!

The larger the black hole, the less it radiates. Black holes above a certain (relatively small size) absorb more light than they radiate through hawking radiation.

Russians are saying this as a way to drum up resentment against Ukraine among their own population, i.e. "How dare Ukraine use long range artillery against Russia, they have no justification we have only invaded their country and committed genocide there."

It makes no sense but neither does most propaganda.
