the information you have access to is nothing compared to what the people leading China have access to
This was a bad argument when the Dubya defenders made it regarding the War on Terror, and it’s a bad argument now. Regardless of what information the Chinese leadership has access too, I think it is clear that a) China has room to make bigger moves on the international stage than it is currently making and b) many of the moves it is currently making unnecessarily err on the side of caution/imperial collaboration to the detriment of the global socialist project.

The RAF has been held responsible for 34 deaths, including industrialist Hanns Martin Schleyer, the Dresdner Bank head Jürgen Ponto, federal prosecutor Siegfried Buback, police officers, American servicemen stationed in Germany
they sound pretty great ngl.
But they are pretty thick, since that means more impact-absorbing foam.
In the 90s the US dropped regulations and some uranium glass is still made today, albeit not as large glassware pieces anymore. Despite the name and the association of uranium with radiation, uranium glass is only negligibly radioactive and totally safe (assuming they didn’t put any lead paint on it).

IIRC it was a running joke on that movie that “Shooter” McGavin’s one liners weren’t working. Like he said “and Grizzly Adams had a beard” sarcastically, only for a random guy to reply “Grizzly Adams did have a beard.”

Many years ago I learned to check if spaghetti is done by flinging a noodle at the window and seeing if it sticks. Now as an adult I still repeat this ritual, but I always wonder why I bother when it cooks in the same amount of time every time.
