Funny events in anti-woke world

Indeed.

The things to US has gotten away with its stranglehold over global finance are both astounding and irritating. And when it comes to leveraging its economical power bullying smaller countries, the US has been far more active than China.

And how do you think Trumps looks under those circumstances ? Does anyone in Denmark really fear China gettiing more rare earth materials via investment? Or do they rather fear what the US will do extort Denmark and Greenland to secure them for themselves ? And for Panama it looks even worse.



China might be the biggest danger to the US. But for (nearly) everyone else the US is the bigger danger. Because China is both weaker and noticebly less agressive if you are not near its borders.

No one else in the world is hapy seeing the largest richest superpower already bullying everyone whenever it likes, stick out its grabby fingers towards other countries natural ressources expected to be important in the future or towards a lifeline for global trade that is also a major source of income for a small country.

Do you realize it's the USN that guards the global oceans right? And China is building nuclear-powered aircraft carriers that will threaten everyone just like how you accuse the US of doing.

One might also look to the 80's for some precedents for why US exercising power in Panama might be concerning.

It is what most navies of relvant size do. Even ours has dozens of ships on the other side of the globe to discourage pirates.

And China is building nuclear-powered aircraft carriers that will threaten everyone just like how you accuse the US of doing.

China is bad with aircraft carriers.
China wants trade with us and crtainly will protect, not threaten our shipping.
China has never threatened us militarily nor is ever likely to do.
Even if China had aircraft carriers, it could not not properly project power with them near us, because it lacks any bases and nealy all local ports and navies are allied with each other.
And while the US regularly threatens us even when we on paper have a better relationship, China never has.

I really really don't care how many aircraft carriers China has. It is not a military threat. Nor will it harm our grobal trade. Now the US also won't threaten us militarily, even if demanding terrotory from its supposed ally Denmark is more more than eyebrow raising, but the US does regularly threaten our trade and meddle in our econmy and our politics.
The only ones reasonably afraid of China are its direct neigbours it has claim on (Taiwan, South China Sea).


It is on the US to behave like a better partner than China. And as less of a threat.

You're saying the Novo Nordisk CEO (I think, don't feel like looking up who testified) perjured himself when testifying you Congress?

I was referring to the estimate you provided in the article here. If there's a specific price (or details that categorically make 8k PA impossible) mentioned in the CEO's testimony, give me the link and timestamp.

Several things are usually automatically denied the 1st time because it's takes additional explanation to get approved.

I didn't say to cut doctors out of the prescription process. They need checks against them just like any other thing. I cited Vinay Prasad about doctors being a broken part of the system. I cited Sarah Hallberg about diabetes.

"Checks against them" provided by... businessmen with no medical expertise, who make more money if care is denied or overcharged?

Again, you didn't watch the video about the broken system. The insurance companies deny important care but the also allow tons of unnecessary and useless care. Their goal isn't to cut spending but to increase spending. The ACA made it so insurance companies can only make 20% profit on revenue so how do you make more money? Increase healthcare spending so that 20% is a bigger number. There's a reason when my mom goes to the doctor, the first words out of his mouth is "colonoscopy" and she says "nope" every time. And colonoscopy wouldn't get denied by the insurance.

None of it is surprising, but all of it is hilarious.
