Re: 6-year-old Uyghur Boy beaten by Han Chinese

https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/gpb3o6/inside_chinas_controversial_mission_to_reinvent/ On a cool day late last September, half a dozen Chinese engineers walked into a conference room in the heart of Geneva’s UN district with a radical idea.

Good overview of China: https://dailyreckoning.com/china-more-bark-than-bite/

Students in Tehran University take pains to avoid walking on the flags of U.S. & Israel

Re: Teens use 'OK boomer' to fire back at older generations' criticisms

As a Gen-Xer I find these comment offensive. Especially as I listen to and have the greatest respect for the boomers in my family. At what point do we put aside generational sterotypes and listen? If I recall The Fourth Turning , doesn't each generational archetype have something to offer? Aren't Ge...
