    i watched cnn in Switzerland yesterday for a few minutes while waiting for my partner to freshen up and also because it was one of the only channels using English. those few minutes were nonstop drivel about China bad

    some unknown woman disappeared after reporting a #metoo incident… the Philippines are holding the US back from wargaming in the South China Sea out of total fear of angering those blood thirsty Chinese who are just waiting for an excuse to destroy the Philippines, etc etc

      mfw the U.S. literally occupied the Philippines until NINETEEN FORTY-FUCKING-SIX (1946)

      all after “liberating” them from the dangers of unmurdered 12 year old boys and unmolested women.

      Fucking unbelievable. I know people who were alive when it was still a fucking colony.
