Nobody is saying that other countries haven't done horrible things. That's a separate issue, unless your argument is that it is okay for the CCP (not the Chinese people, this is political, not racial) to commit crimes against humanity. The response to the possible horrors in Xinjiang, and Tibet, should not be countered with whataboutisms. Don't we all want everyone to have a quality life free of suffering and abuse by others?


Seeing this reminds me of a link I posted recently. This youtube video features investigation into supposed concentration camps in Xinjiang: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cI8bJO-to8I I'm posting it again because it seems like the kind of video that needs to be seen.


^ you may want to watch this video, an analysis of the video from guanguan, your own judgement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro9kyS-NgAY


The point of that video seems to be to dox the person who filmed the other video, probably with the intention of making his life a lot harder and less safe. That's really creepy.


Thanks for sharing this - it's really hard to find anything this well documented from locals


That building complex at 10:50 is huge.


usr stands for UNIX system resources


Backronym.

Home directories were originally stored in /usr, as are another user programs

“ In particular, in our own version of the system, there is a directory "/usr" which contains all user's directories, and which is stored on a relatively large, but slow moving head disk, while the othe files are on the fast but small fixed-head disk. “


"Referer" stands for "referrer".


I used to think like that, then I met someone who's best friend committed suicide while under the influence of psilocybin mushrooms. Psychedelics are powerful, and it is irresponsible to suggest, let alone guarantee, that they will benefit everyone.


I met someone who's best friend committed suicide while sober. Those stories of suicide on psychs usually turn out to be fabrications, exaggerations or miscalculated cause and effect.


Most of the suicides I know of happened because of booze. And the drug is available for mass purchase at the store down the block...


I think one of the biggest fallacies is that alcohol "shows who the person really is".

It definitely loosens you up, to a point. Maybe 3-8 drinks in it is definitely closer to "the true self".

But in large amounts it definitely creates an over-emotional person. In it's own way it creates emotional reaction spirals that could cause suicide, or lashing out at people, irrational love or hatred of self, etc.

Like i said, biggest fallacy.


> Maybe 3-8 drinks in it is definitely closer to "the true self".

3-8? 8 drinks in and I'd be passed out on the floor.


Well they did say 3-8. A petite short person won't be able to drink as much as a tall heavy person, all else being equal.

Tbh one or two beers is all I drink these days, but six or seven is what it takes for me to be 'properly drunk' (which I don't enjoy.)
