Texas has to reduce the input of Thomas Jefferson as an Enlightenment philosopher because he was too woke as a slaveowner.

It doesn’t. I’m commenting more on supporters like you’ve read online saying the current government is great.

China is returning to its manufacturing capacity that it had before the century of humiliation, which is that it is mostly self sufficient for manufactured goods and only relied on international trade to supply raw materials.

It was incredibly hard for Europe to trade with China during this time. Part of the reason for Spanish colonization of the Americas was to supply gold and silver to buy Chinese goods. The UK had to settle on opium to trade with China because China wouldn’t accept any other form of trade goods besides gold and silver; this was causing major issues with China due to the trade imbalance.

A lot of communists here are like Ariel from The Little Mermaid. Their existing living condition is shit and they think that going to a different place will magically fix all their problems because everything just has to be better there.

It seems like a descendent of the Shah is currently involved, but I imagine that the replacement government would likely be a constitutional monarchy or a revised republic.

In either case, I expect transfer of several executive powers to elected bodies including control of the military and police.

EU countries did underinvest, but the US is able to invest in multiple weapon platforms and logistics capabilities that wealthy but small countries can’t possibly afford on their own.

The Libyan War was a good example. The EU nations that wanted to intervene in the war needed the US to provide ATC duties and provide supplies after the countries’ missile reserves ran out.

There has historically been a correlation. However, this bubble doesn’t require a lot of labor so wages have been stuck.

Hell, if it weren’t for the AI bubble, it is likely that the US economy would be in recession.

Part of the problem of creating a non-American NATO is that the USA provides a ton of capabilities and logistics that other countries can’t possibly afford.

It is the reason why there has been a push to create an EU military instead.

There really isn’t a “profile” of a peace price recipient.

That said, awarding her the peace prize felt like when the Nobel Peace Prize to Obama; they were giving it for people being the opposite of others without any accomplishments.

White college educated males were considered the default in a lot of early and mid 20th century experimental psychology due to the availability of test subjects and biases of people running the experiments. The definition of neurotypical behavior came from a subset of the population.

ADD and ADHD are known to hinder progression through the education system. So, the cohort of people on that part of the spectrum were underrepresented. The bounds for being normal were skewed.

Also, medical intervention is typically only looked at when the mental condition causes a reduction of quality of life. Over the past generation, the need for a formal collegiate education has become greater in developed countries due to shifts in economics. A kid which would be considered energetic and absent minded a few generations ago would have a far greater chance in being economically successful compared to now.

China has sanctions on several US companies.

Iceland would be better for data centers because it also has a steady supply of geothermal energy.

As for ramifications, I can see a lot of changes to American buildings as they have to survive more extreme weather events.

It is estimated that there are a lot of rare earth minerals there to create fancy electronics.

Trump is bad for farming, but good on low capital gains taxes.

Colombia and Brazil both declared Maduro’s election as illegitimate. They have also been in opposition of the capture of Maduro by the USA.

The Venezuelan government could likely consider this to be an act of war based on international law. The question right now is if it wants to.

Technically, Trump performed this attack without declaring war and his war powers without a Congressional declaration. Per American law, the USA isn’t at war with Venezuela. If Venezuela declares that this is an act of war, it gives Trump a better pretense to get war declared on Venezuela. It also vastly changes how neutral powers can treat both countries during the war.

Countries have fought wars without declaring wars before. The military action surrounding the invasion of the Falklands was done without either nation officially declaring war.

He pretty much is.

The Pope has some soft power when it comes to some morality, but countries routinely ignore the Vatican and it doesn’t really cause an issue.

The relationship is worse with a lot of American Catholics, who haven’t been happy with the last few popes due to their liberalness.

Unless the USA invades, I imagine the process won’t be fully controlled by the USA.

Currently, the Venezuelan Vice President, Delcy Rodríguez, is in Russia. She would likely be acting as President Anna isn’t at risk of being kidnapped by the USA. The question right now is whether the Venezuelan government can maintain its chain of command as the USA attacks it.

The USA is likely hoping for a coup where the current government falls. If that happens, the successor will likely be a choice of the Venezuelan military and internal security ministries.

It was centrally located for the time, but it was still established with the idea it would have coastal access.

And it was a decent location that followed the European model of having the capital not on the coast but inland enough to defend. Caracas matches that location as well.
