@hodgetwins Shut up. No one cares about you

dude is coping hard

@StatisticUrban I actually really like this

If you just took a computer algorithm and made the country's maps compact, ignoring all else, you arguably end up in a healthier democracy than we have right now.

@dpakman Every trip that biden ever went on was more embarrassing

Has there ever been a more embarrassing presidential trip than Trump in China? Talking about Chinese food, conflicts between Secret Service and Chinese security, Trump GUSHING about dictators…truly humiliating.

@dpakman He took out two dictators in the last 5 months. He doesn’t have a problem with dictators

Trump went to China pretending to be a big strong alpha male and was reduced to a sputtering mess by President Xi, a horrible authoritarian. Trump ended up mumbling about Taiwan and ranting about “Chinese food.” Trump loves dictators, and the dictators know they can manipulate Trump. Sad state of affairs for the US.

@xwanyex I mean, we DO see libs violently protest perceived acts of racism. There ARE climate activists who commit acts of terrorism. There are violent extremists for nearly every leftwing cause.

I present this evidence again to make one thing clear: your life is not worse because of the top 1% it is worse because of the bottom 1%

@xwanyex There is a sweet spot where this is acceptable. The baby needs to be old enough to reliably sleep for 4-6 hrs at a time, but young enough to be unable to escape the crib.

@RBReich How many billionaires are there? And how many of them inherited a billion dollars? My guess is less than 1%

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

@Noahpinion Trump has been saying we need to take out the Ayatollah's since the 80’s. No one dragged him into this war.

Israel is technologically very capable, and militarily incredibly effective. The reason they're a bad ally is that they dragged us into the disastrous Iran War. We can't have that.

@TheLaurenChen @esaagar This would be a HUGE win for china, and a HUGE L for American manufacturing. Good job Lauren!

@esaagar In Australia you can get a brand new EV for like $15k. Theyre coming to Canada too. This would be HUGE for US consumers.

Prediction: Trump will allow some form of Chinese auto entrance into the US at the Xi Summit. There will be licensed Chinese tech on US roads w/in 5 years

@Noahpinion Its only hard if you are dumb

It's hard to get mad about China when America is throwing people in concentration camps, threatening to invade Greenland, sucking up to Russia, sabotaging our economy with tariffs, and losing a war to Iran

@oldluth Women are supposed to be choosey. Men are supposed to be worthy of being chosen.

Dads, if you want grandchildren, make your daughters wear bargain clothes and drive old cars and buy their own makeup out of babysitting money. I can't overstate how destructive feeling rich in her father's house is for women's choosiness.

@Noahpinion They help us update our tech and our weaponry, and they give us awesome intel on our enemies. How is that not useful?

Israel has enjoyed tremendous military success from being a technological civilization. But this doesn't mean Israel is a useful ally for America.

@mattyglesias True capitalism has never been tried. Its worth a shot

They want us to think everyone would be able to afford all the treatments they need if only nobody had insurance?

@commiepommie Lol stfu you hack

Reality check, Melissa: that chart is misleading and you know it. I live in China and I see what’s actually happening on the ground every day. Western commentators like yourself have been predicting China’s collapse since 2008. Yet here we are in 2026 and China’s economy is still growing at 5%, solid growth by any standard, with real industrial strength that the US simply can’t match and that is fact! Yes, China’s GDP measured in US dollars looks smaller on paper than it used to. That’s because the currency fluctuated and then stabilised. That’s not a collapse, it’s a managed currency that supports China’s exports and its massive reserves (over $3.3 trillion). The gap widened on paper because the US pumped up its asset prices through money-printing and inflation. China’s share dipped, but its actual output keeps growing. The IMF projects China’s economy at around $20.85 trillion this year versus the US at $32 trillion and China is still closing the gap over the long term because it’s growing more than twice as fast. If you want to understand real productive power, look at purchasing power parity (PPP). China has led the world in PPP terms for years. It dominates in manufacturing, electric vehicles, renewables, high-speed rail and 5G/6G infrastructure. That’s what actually builds national strength, not inflated stock prices. Speaking of stocks: US markets have ballooned on tech hype, share buybacks and Federal Reserve liquidity injections. China’s markets took hits from its deliberate property sector rebalancing (which the government managed without a systemic crisis) and from global headwinds. But Chinese firms dominate the real economy: industrial output, patents, exports, critical minerals and supply chains. A frothy US stock market doesn’t win long-term competition or build resilient systems. Both countries have debt. China’s debt is mostly domestic, productive and under state control, directed toward development, not endless consumption and financial speculation. The property correction was exactly that, a correction, not a crisis. “Overcapacity” is Western code for “China is producing what the world actually needs while we’ve deindustrialised our own economies.” The “Asian century” isn’t hype either, it’s structural. China invests in its people, in tech sovereignty and in long-term resilience. The US still has real strengths in finance and soft power, but pretending that currency fluctuations or S&P 500 records mean permanent dominance is the real outdated narrative. Trump is going to Beijing. The serious people know that decoupling was a fantasy, that supply chains are China-centric for good reasons and that mutual respect works better than tariffs and denial. China isn’t “slowing to US levels,” it’s maturing into an indispensable manufacturing and innovation hub while delivering steady, higher-quality growth. The gap between the two countries isn’t destiny. It comes down to incentives, governance and execution. One of these systems is actually built for the long term.

@LinkofSunshine Lol North Korea is very communist.

Why do so many communists defend North Korea. They’re not even communist they’re just like a classic monarchy. It’s not like a PR thing. What do you have to gain from this

@wil_da_beast630 @sourpatchlyds Wilfred, do you have kids? Based on your answer to the poll I would be shocked if you have kids yourself.

I'd save my wife. The obvious point that you should rescue your true love, and the lover with whom you can make MORE kids - as vs, say, your teenage son - would have been a no brainer everywhere on Earth before modern emo-world. Equation might change if you have seven children. But, the average up-middle US couple has 1.2.

@nosoup4knowles Its really sad to see what Megyn has become.

Candace CLAIMS Daily Wire FIRED her for tweeting "genocide is always wrong" & "Christ is King" THIS IS A LIE 🤥🤥🤥 Here is Jeremy Boreing defending Candace publicly AFTER those tweets. And Candace cont'd to work for DW until March 2024!👇🏻 (Megyn Kelly Show, Nov 2023)

@LJS527 Lol what? Are you familiar with negotiations? The side that is getting blown to pieces doesn’t get to dictate the terms

It took the Obama administration 20 months to reach a deal with the Iranian regime. A deal that had a lot of serious flaws, to be sure. But if you're a sharp critic of their approach, and that deal, then how can you look at what Trump's doing here, and not worry that we'll end up with a similar outcome? Only this time, we've got a war on our hands to further complicate the situation. As if the Iranian regime's negotiating posture wasn't already extremely stubborn.... Imagine what it is now.

@MoreBirths @Cernovich People have forgotten that the entire point of marriage is to create a stable environment to raise children.

@Cernovich Yes
