Africa is still colonized, so this idea that they picked "bad leaders" is comical. I would expect the owner of Glencore have more say in the next leader in some of these countries …

I've tried Ahmad's Ceylon tea in the past and enjoyed it, but not this particular product.

I bought it on Amazon on a whim and it ended up being a great purchase. Hard to go back to normal tea and we haven't found this kind of leaf anywhere else.

>Assuming the tea actually sells I believe Celestial is in every Walmart, that must be quite a bit of volume.

Can't compare the grade of loose leaf I'm talking about to the dust Lipton sells, having tasted the difference. Even visually...it's like comparing champagne to cooking wine. Eleph…

My buddy used to work for Lipton. He explained that they use the cheapest grade of tea (dust) available. Also many tea companies mix non-tea additives (fillers) to their tea bags. …

I use companies like docker containers to protect assets.

Care to share your force reconnect script? I'm sure many would appreciate it.

>That’s wildly inaccurate. Arithmetic was very much a subject at several schools... I'm talking specifically about "long division" in Europe... and have heard this factoid from mul…

The dark ages also saw a huge disparity in education between the East and the West. Until the 15th century less than 5 people in Europe could do long division. For comparison, Arya…

Democracies are not as agile as they used to seem. The ability to move with conviction on short notice is an edge that the Chinese government has over Western nations.

China decolonizing and unifying. Anyone aligned with the wrong incentives (undermining/sabotaging China) will get put-right shortly.

If a country is not ready for Democracy with the necessary amount of development/safeguards, this can be a disaster. Like installing an internet connected Windows XP on your networ…

> I don't want to speculate why the British did what they did, and that's not the point The historical record is very clear and malice is at the top of the menu.

It did happen here (in the West) and your views on China were molded by the framing our propaganda efforts introduced.

>You may be correct, you may not. I wonder if people said the same thing right up to the end of segregation, and other things. But that doesn't matter: might does not make right. O…

China, I expect has a bigger picture view. Our small brain framing "Move Manufacturing Good", doesn't play out when you realize China is an Asian power, not just an isolated countr…

The underdevelopment of Africa is/was a deliberate decision of the west that China is undoing. Smart investors realize China/India's future economic status depends on being able to…

US police are the 6th leading cause of African American deaths. I watched an HK detainee get tortured in a hospital in horror, then remembered we kill thousands of unarmed people e…
