It's almost impressive how you managed to get all the bs russian talking points into such a short post. Almost.

Same same. It's a whole other game when you can progress at your own pace and don't have to worry about resets.

Is that a thing for real?

..asking for a friend, because I obviously have loads of those.

We're in agreement then. I mean, I don't have anything in particular against China as such, I just don't like how they handled COVID and I certainly have some issues with their governance at large, but their money would still be welcome if there was proper oversight.

I do hope WHO will get up and running at 100% though, they're sorely needed. Considering what's happening in the US I don't think it'll be long before some shit happens over there as well.

I'm with you there, in theory at least. Chinese money tends to come with strings attached, though. I'd be weary of that kind of influence without proper oversight.

It's not like the WHO hasn't flip-flopped on things before due to outside pressure either, so there's some precedent there.

He's protected on account of his imaginary wealth. It's all kinds of wrong but it is what it is.

Yeah, because that'll surely end well. Any strong democracy would be a lot better than either the US or China.

China still hasn't been anywhere near transparent about COVID, for example. Do you really think they'd be any better if an outbreak of something similar would happen, especially if it originated from China in the first place.

Oh someone finally noticed he might not be completely trustworthy huh?

Jfc.

You're not wrong.

If I didn't know any better I'd think you were my partner, lol. We have had the exact same thing going on for years. I never even wanted to touch W11 but due to her wanting to play a specific type of game we both ended up with W11 desktops anyways. A lot more frustrating (won't even get into that) and costly than it would ever have been otherwise. I'm very happy with Mint on my laptop otherwise for example, it plays the smaller games I prefer just fine.

But time together is important, too. Even if that is just playing online with a small group of friends for an hour or two in the evenings it does mean so very much to everyone involved.

My point is nobody was exactly innocent there, and while we were allies of convenience with Germany for a time we also got help from none other than Great Britain, Sweden and even the US in the same timeframe. We were never part of the third Reich in any capacity, and you damn well know it.

Also, we fought a defensive war, not an offensive one.
