If I remember correctly, up until about 40 years ago we used to consider Taiwan to be the head of China instead of the communist regime. Taiwan also lost it’s seat in the UN to the People’s Republic of China and the communist regime in China views Taiwan as China while Taiwan views themselves somewhat as independent.

It goes back to the end of WW2. There were two major factions at the end of WW2 vying for control of China, the Communists and the Kuomingtang (KMT), Nationalists. They continued fighting and eventually the Communists pushed the KMT out of mainland China. The KMT forces retreated into Taiwan and the Communists were…

Taiwan isn’t part of China. Not as far as Taiwanese are concerned. China disagrees though. Its weird.

I tried the app but then I saw you needed to have a cable provider(which I don’t) to actually stream it, so I couldn’t do it on the damn app.

No doubt when this traumatized dog snaps and bites someone, it will be put down and this asshole will go get another giant “I’m the Man” breed that he has no idea how to train or control to replace it.

the four swimmers spoke to U.S. State Department officials and they agreed to shut up. Almost immediately after the briefing, Lochte “walked across the street” and gave an interview

It’s almost like rape isn’t about sex, but power or control ...

Seriously. “These kids.” Lochte is 32 fucking years old. Yes, he’s an idiot, but he’s a grown-ass idiot.

To be fair, Lochte probably doesn’t know the difference.

not saying he did/didn’t make it up, but the dude is dumb as a sack of potatoes. to presume what would go on in a head that stupid is impossible for an intelligent person to comprehend

Occam’s Razor, bitches- why the hell would Lochte lie about getting robbed? Like, what does that do for him? There’s zero incentive to make something like that up.
