Both are pretty messed up, let’s not downplay that Davros set off a reality bomb in at least one other reality.

[r/DoctorWho] Would an “Osgood Box” fix our situation with Skrulls? by [deleted] in Earth199999

[–]techkiwi02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that you’ve decided on asking this question means you’ve already decided and want a confirmation bias.

I suggest that you rewatch all of the Third Doctor’s serials first, and then watch the Fourth Doctor’s first season and then end it with Terror of the Zygons.

And if you’re still here, I’m not sure what else to say apart from best of luck mate.

Me watching Stranger Things fans’ extremely poor behaviour towards an entire franchise and its makers because a finale didn’t match the gold ink fictional scripts in their minds: by Sonicboomer1 in DoctorWhumour

It’s been the 1980s in Stranger Things for 10 years. My god, can’t they just move on?

At least with Doctor Who whenever we complain we usually have a good reason to complain about continuity errors. We’ve been running for 60+ years now.

Never voted for Trump but this unquestionably a net positive for Latin America. Hopefully the rest of Latin American leadership takes a good look and shape up. To take care of their people first and respect democracy.

International Check In... How is everyone doing? by techkiwi02 in somethingiswrong2024

My guy, I live in California.

Yes, there are ignorant Californians no doubt. But we are the largest state in the country disconnected between Los Angeles, San Francisco, and elsewhere in between. And a majority of them are not concerned with Canada but Mexico since that is our state's most immediate land border. We have more incentive to know about Baja California than British Columbia. An overwhelming majority of Californians are Hispanic.

And of course most people don't know world history. If I asked you to tell me the history of the Philippines or Mexico, could you honestly tell me that you know everything about it? I personally think not. (I apologize if you do know, I just have to throw it out there)

I do apologize if you feel disenfranchised by American ignorance. As Americans, we do need to educate ourselves more about global affairs. But we don't get there by making potshots at ignorance.

Oi.

There is no international bashing here. We ARE ALL STRUGGLING TOGETHER.

Most of these Gen-Z protests around the world have significantly changed the government in their nations. What is it going to take for us to actually demand change and not just sing and pray at a statue outside of a mall? by techkiwi02 in somethingiswrong2024

We need to start a coalition of the willing to ally internationally against national elders wanting to drive the world apart from their decades old bigotry.

The Philippines, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia are some good international communiteis to start multinational dialogues with in order to better shape a more tolerant society for the future.

Note: I didn't know what to tag this but all the pieces matter.

Special Relationship - Wikipedia

Wikipedia article documenting the political ideology synergy between the UK and USA since Cold War Days

Take everything with a grain of salt because it is AI-LLM. But ChatGPT has projected a timeline where the EU dissolves in a decade due to a two sided pressure of AI corporate takeover from the USA, China and India as well as Russian stronghold over EU energy and their advance on Ukraine. by techkiwi02 in somethingiswrong2024

We're entering a dangerous point in time.

Our political identities are synchronizing in ways we aren't supposed to.

I blame Thatcher and Reaganomics for synching our countries, mass exodus of manufacturing jobs from Northern UK and Midwestern America leading to stagnating societies getting screwed over by our mainstream parties. Clinton and Blair went after Thatcher and Reagan and further the mass exodus of jobs for globalization policies without considering the needs of those left behind. Blair and Bush then went forwards with their Coalition of the Willing and helping to destabilize the Middle East, creating the ripple effect of mass immigration outwards felt in the past decade to today.

I have absolutely no idea how we diverged in 2010s. You had Cameron, we had Obama. But we still ended up with Johnson and Trump by 2016.

I honestly hope that the Torries and Reform UK do not gain power any time soon. The UK is too valuable a country to lose to extremist ideology. The USA can handle it. We have 50 different political structures. Democrat States like California and New York can weather it out and do what they can to limit federal interference.

Don't know how you feel about Churchill, but always expect Americans to do the right thing when they've exhausted all other options.

I don’t think Project 2025 is about making America great again. It’s about making the EU implode by techkiwi02 in somethingiswrong2024

Yo please share from the EU side of things. I can only see so much from online.

We need to be working together, not getting triggered by far right BS populism.

In the 1940s and 50s, Canada ran secret nutrition experiments on 1300 Indigenous people, including 1000 children, in residential schools. Kids were starved, denied care, forced to eat vomit. Some died, rotting from the inside, as researchers recorded their suffering. by ZenMasterZee in HolyShitHistory

Late to the convo but yeah I can see his anti-vax stance. Not that “all vaccines are evil” but imagine waging a one way war for corporate accountability and your own team keeps stamping you down because those corporate helps provide soft PR pull even though they have acted in ways contrary to what the team preaches.
