Oddbean new post about login | logout I’m honestly so excited for this evenings debate 🥹Watching at my parents house 🏡 Got a nice offer to watch with a group of people at a local spot I frequent but the debate starts at n.i.n.e p.m. Lord knows I’m not in the streets past 8 🤗
It’s easier from New Zealand where it’s happening at 1pm. The American presidential debate is national news in New Zealand.
So much easier indeed. Let me know if NZ puts up in screen interpreters for sign language! Some nations do. We, of course, don’t yet. 🤦🏾♀️Such a miss in reaching voters.
I’m watching on the ABC YouTube stream, so i don’t know if there is a local broadcast. Normally all public events yes there are interpreters normally for public events in NZ, but I don’t actually remember there being sign language interpreters at NZ political debates.
ANZ are US vassal states after all
Indirectly, they’re still commonwealth countries with the King of England as the head of state… it’s the UK which is still our colonial power, even if there’s lots of autonomy. So it’s the UK’s relationship to the US… so by a second degree…sure…
Yes, formally. I'm an expat in Aus and we have US bases here that are not audited by the Aus gov afaik. No Aus citizen is allowed to know what's occurring by a "foreign nation" on their own soil. That seems to be the definition of vassal state to me 😅
