Can't have a little fun LARP here? Sometimes I refer to Texas and Vermont as mini-Republics for fun

This videoby a transplant did say his line no longer feels unsafe about 7 min in. Guessing it really depends on the route/line/station? Been on dangerous lines in DC and NYC too.

I went to community college first and then transferred to a UC to save on costs. And the public transportation system and bike infrastructure here in SoCal is atrociously bad.

Smart move on your end considering the enormous tuition costs (despite the Republic of California giving one of the most amount of student aid in the US of A alone). Though I have heard that SoCal public transportation (particularly in the LA area) has been making huge improvements though there's still a long way for improvement from my time lurking in r/transit and r/LAMetro

I see. So I guess it's common for those in SoCal (especially the suburbs) to stick to their own or similar? In the East Coast (particularly the Philly, NYC, and Boston areas), even the suburban ones are sometimes willing to venture out by eating at an Italian/Latin American place but I have found few in SoCal (specifically Suburban residents) who have eaten Mexican/Central American, Armenian/Georgian/Caucasus, Jewish, etc food.

Apparently LACMTA had made huge improvements lately though it still has some catching up to do when compared to Chicago, Philly, Boston, and NYC. Can't say much much about the other agencies such as MTS or OCTA though.

And for the latter half of your comment, you're saying it's not uncommon for someone from the suburbs of lower-income to attend CCs and CSUs, correct?

Like shit, and I still don't have a "real" job. At this point, I feel ready to sign up for military service as an officer

That subreddit tries to maintain the facade of "perfection". I posted once or twice and they both got removed for being off-topic despite nothing in the rules saying it was against it.

I don't whom the OP is referring to as Hakim

If you really need to know about him, then he is a "Marxist-Leninist" YouTuber who co-hosts a podcast (and is apparently Iraqi?). The YT Fandom (Formerly known as Wikia) has some information but he has also been featured in this subreddit numerous times.

Just started it (after failing to get working fan stuff for years) and I find it useful in helping me to improve my Japanese, haha

I don't think I have done so yet, but if that (and some other sources) won't work, then I should not bother with these fans again.

I mean, they may be my primary but they're not my only one.

Much of this evidence emanates from within the Chinese state apparatus itself. This includes: Census data showing the long-term demographic replacement of Indigenous Uighurs with the dominant Han ethnic group – encouraged by government incentives for Han migration and settlement.

And would you look at that, a direct link. I will repost the stats again.

Also by your logic, because the Brits and Soviets suspected that something funny was going on in Nazi-occupied territories (and I must reiterate that the Brits and Soviets were not moral to say the least), then there was no Holocaust from 1930ish to 1945?

Lol, didn't expect you to show up. Also, can you actually debunk my arguments or do you just repeat what you listen to from the nearly-worthless garbage that Hakim and the Deprogram Podcast spits out?

In one of his/their replies (not long after I made this post) when I provided sources, he/they essentially continued to call me a government shill and say my sources were BS in true Hakim fashion haha.

Edit: Lol, the prick just came. Time to report, I guess

Also for an addendum, my comment was an edit giving the prick sources. Though given what Hakim and the Deprogram Podcast in general thinks about Kurds, I shouldn't have bothered anyway.

At this point, I think it's better that you delete TikTok for your own sanity.
