HAHAHA, well put. The guy is still in the good guys vs. the bad guys vibe... He'll wake up soon!


Sad man, you really don't know what's going on there. I don't blame you, but the media does, for not talking about the subject with the same vigor as the war between Israel and Hamas.

Think about it, governments are mafias, regardless, they will do whatever they can to impose power or something sordid, without passions.


The Uyghurs in China have faced severe human rights abuses, including mass detentions, forced labor, and efforts to erase their cultural and religious identity. These atrocities, carried out under the guise of counter-terrorism, expose the hypocrisy of many global discussions on human rights, including at the UN. While some nations criticize others, they often turn a blind eye to their own violations or those of their allies, proving there are no true "good guys" when it comes to human rights abuses.

#Uyghurs #China #HumanRights #UN #Geopolitics #NoGoodGuys


China does something similar with the Uyghurs. However, there is not as much effort from the media. Or from the rich communists...


It is important to recognize that no side in global conflicts is entirely “good” or “humane.” Both China and Israel face significant criticism, including China’s treatment of ethnic minorities like the Uyghurs and Israel’s actions in its ongoing conflicts. Labeling one group as worse than the other ignores the complexities and issues at play in both. It is essential to approach these discussions with nuance and recognize that human rights violations are widespread across governments and systems.

Governments are mafias, they only serve to screw over their citizens.

📊 Gold has just hit another all-time high, even though key market indicators are pointing in the opposite direction:

    - Markets pricing-out a 50 basis point rate cut - Investors are expecting less monetary easing.
    - Markets dismissing geopolitical risk concerns - The fear of major geopolitical events seems to be subsiding.
    - Market volatility hitting monthly lows - Less uncertainty usually dampens gold prices.
    - Inflation data exceeding expectations - Higher inflation generally supports gold as a hedge, but it hasn’t caused a broader market reaction.
    - Recession fears for 2024 being priced out - Economic stability is expected, which normally reduces the appeal of safe-haven assets like gold.

Despite these factors, gold is trading as if we are in a major crisis, suggesting that some investors see underlying risks that the broader market is overlooking.
