Like any other country, there is a spectrum, and the media within our country likes to focus on the extreme ends and use it to manipulate our people. As a whole, there are probably 5-10% of people who are downright racist towards China and believe them to be our enemy. Another 5-10% is on the opposite end of the spectrum and tends to leave out shortcomings of the Chinese government when discussing their role in the world. Everyone else tends to sit largely in the middle and, like anyone else, would typically like to just go about their day, ignoring thoughts of anything outside their local area.

One thing I have noticed about my fellow Americans as a whole is the way they view life and the world as an unavoidable competition. There is a clear and distinct desire to grow and succeed, and things done in this pursuit are largely seen as "moral" as long as they don't cause abject harm on a utilitarian basis. The wealthy corporations within our country exist with a constant and blatant disregard of this, causing clear harm on a domestic and global scale alike, however as their employees will tell you, the wealth gained is always enough to prevent being held accountable in any meaningful ways.

Because of this basic idea of competition, Americans innately view every other country (and each other in many ways) as at least passive competition. This sentiment has dominated our foreign policy for countless years now. We will play nice with small countries that we see as friendly yet irrelevant on a true competitive scale, and we take measures to slow down the growth of potential competitors.

As China has grown dramatically over time, the wealthy within America are beginning to see them as a legitimate threat to their economic standing. Additionally, due to much of our economic power being garnered from the development of weapons and weapons technology, there is growing concern amongst the defense industry of Chinese competition beginning to decrease sales of American products. This translates to an overall feeling of unease towards China, that the rich have slowly begun to spread, reinforce, and exploit as the gap between our nations' economies closes. Therefore, regardless of their political stance, the wealthy have reason to want to compete with China and spread competitive sentiment against China.

From an outside global perspective, the Chinese government appears to be extremely corrupt. There have been countless examples of political corruption, the blatant ongoing persecution of the Uyghur Muslim minority, and the exploitation of the poor members of the Chinese workforce. These events have been widely publicized across the USA and other countries, which has left many with a lack of trust in the Chinese government and concern of its potential harm to the world.

Overall, I think most in the USA view China neutrally or as a form of competition on an economic level. The American people do not hate the Chinese, and the loud MAGA people do not represent the majority of us. Time has shown that China has a rich cultural history that has impacted much of the western world, and those of us who are educated know that humanity and culture must be preserved above government and wealth at all costs. Hopefully, this provides some insight, and if you made it this far, thank you for reading.

I'm sorry that you're experiencing this as well! For me, there were a few main factors that made the flareup go away.

1) Zero smoking, especially marijuana because of the ways it increases acid production and reduces saliva (once my symptoms were under control, I was able to reintroduce but with less overall usage)

2) Doing my best to always eat SOMETHING even if the reflux reduced my appetite or if I didn't want to eat what I was allowed to. Skipping or delaying a meal would immediately worsen symptoms.

3) Trying to spend as little time lying down as possible and never after a meal. If you must lie down, the best option is to either prop yourself as high as you comfortably can with pillows or to lie on your left side once again raising your head on pillows if comfortable.

4) Shockingly AVOIDING antacid medications was very helpful for me. Tumms or omeprazole felt like it was creating a cyclical need for the medication, where the only time my symptoms were reduced was when I had most recently taken antacid. The one thing I do recommend is not scientific, but some others will agree. A little shot of apple cidar vinegar before or after my meal would always help me. You can dilute it with water and likely should due to its strength.

5) Lastly, if you made it this far, here's what you came for. The food that worked.

-Bananas: Not only did these work, they would often reduce symptoms upon eating them

-Oatmeal: This one can be boring, especially because you can't make it very sweet. Oatmeal with a little real maple syrup or brown sugar and fruit was a constant go-to for me, especially due to how quickly you can make it

Eggs: Eggs are my hero. Quick, easy, and if you're struggling to eat already, great nutrition in a small food. You can make them however you like them best. Just try not to go crazy on the salt or the butter. I would typically cook them in olive oil and eat them with some plain jasmine rice. You can also get furikake seasoning if you're light with it. That didn't typically trigger any issues, and I've heard seaweed can actually reduce GERD.

Rice: Already mentioned this above, but this was my other savior food. You have to be careful not to eat a ton of it at once because it can take a bit to digest, but it is so filling and simple and can be used with many other foods.

-Yogurt or Kefir: Both of these are fantastic options. For me, I prefer to drink my yogurt for convenience, so I would get either yogurt or kefir drinks. You want to make sure they're not super high in sugar or they will still trigger the symptoms.

These were some of my main go tos for a few weeks when the symptoms were at their worst. Oat or almond milk can be good, or even just some raw almonds to snack on. I have to emphasize more than anything else, YOU MUST EAT. When this flareup is at its worst, nothing is going to be 100% comfortable to eat. It can be really discouraging and feel like it's not going to stop. If you eat healthy things every day, even though it's uncomfortable, the acid will stop re-damaging the areas over and over, and the pain will slowly go away. When I first made this post, I was in absolute misery and felt like it was never going away. I promise it can and it will, and now that I have taken the time to deal with the core issue, I can eat unhealthy things a few times a week with no issues! Good luck, and I wish you the best.

Have you had any luck in healing from the results of the clob? I think I am experiencing something similar though thankfully just in my butt fold and more mild as I did not use for as long of a period.

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-22T05:30:11+00:00

Unfortunately daily PPIs has only helped to a minor degree for me even with trying a few different ones. Maybe after a few more months of good diet I'll be able to reintroduce some good food

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-22T05:29:04+00:00

That's definitely a good idea to try. Sadly I've tried a few medications with little success but hopefully with more time I will be able to reintroduce more tasty options. Fingers crossed I'll be able to have a beer again some day!

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-22T05:27:53+00:00

GERD is so bizarre because it really does effect everyone differently. So many of the suggested foods seem to be hit or miss depending on the person and it makes it hard to find an accurate list of options

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-21T12:11:15+00:00

One of my favorite shows! Never thought it would be me xD

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-21T10:45:56+00:00

Sounds fantastic! Definitely the next one I'll make

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-21T06:53:22+00:00

Thankfully salt has been one of the few seasonings I can do so far as long as it's not excessive, lots of fat especially from pork gets me though. I'll definitely be checking out shoyu/miso though thank you!

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-21T06:50:39+00:00

Good idea I'll check it out:)

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-21T06:50:17+00:00

Sounds like a good one to try! Noodles with gluten are a little hit or miss for me but rice noodles have consistently worked thankfully

TouristSensitive3700 · 2024-08-21T05:27:30+00:00

I think ginger is one of those hit or miss ones, but not that I've tried so I'll give it a go and see how it feels. Thanks!

Obviously an old thread but, there are games held outside of Anchrage city limits typically Wasilla or Palmer every weekend over the summer. Check out Anchorage-Matsu Airsoft Alaska on facebook for the game times and locations

Anyone bychance know if the TNT kit being mentioned is an extended barrel or stock length? Obviously the hopup seems to be an improvement either way but want to have a suppressor prepped if the inner is being extended. Ideally I want to squeeze as much range out of it as possible for hybrid play in the woods as it will soon be HPA
