A Chinese fighter jet crashed near the Taiwan strait earlier this month and neither side have confirmed/denied anything about the reason it crashed.

An "unprecedented" 40-war plane incursion across the line of defense happened earlier today. Might just be sabre rattling, might be President Xi making a grab while he still can while the US founders about.

I know *I* sure as hell would, who's gonna stop him? The US? Lol!

I thought that was debunked by a bunch of reputable publications? PRC jets have in fact been flying near and/or into ROC airspace, but this crash appears to be completely unrelated. For one thing, most of the reports say the jet crashed in Guangxi, a province that's almost a 1000km from Taiwan at its closest point. If it was shot down or even just suffered technical problems in the vicinity of Taiwan, it would be extremely odd for the pilot to fly for almost an hour inland, over two or three different provinces, before crashing down in Guangxi.

The claim that the crash was related to Taiwan seems to have started on Indian social media and rapidly picked up by Indian tabloids, before spreading to Western media. It could also be India trying to increase tension in the Taiwan Strait in order to divert Beijing's attention away from the Sino-Indian border. I don't know, just speculating here.

Interesting times.

So something weird is going on. For the past year, year and a half, I would almost see zero pro-trump replies to tweets. Before then it was flooded by people like David Wohl, @ChatByCC, that woman who quoted bible verses, etc. Other than that @RealDefender weirdo, I would never see any positive replies to his tweets. For whatever reason, that tweet is absolutely flooded with pro-Trump tweets. I don't know if Twitter typically hid them from me and now they aren't, or if something fishy is going on, but I checked with my browser which isn't logged into my Twitter account and it's the same thing.

I actually made the completely opposite observation the last couple of weeks, but to be fair I severely cut my daily Twitter time since the beginning of this year.

Looks to me as if he's getting way more backlash from normies now but maybe those are just the replies Twitter chose to show me.

Well I'm legitimately looking for anti-Trump responses and can't find any; even from people I follow. Like I said it's the same in my non-logged-in browser so it's definitely not an algorithm designed for me specifically.

Pro-Trump bots are out in full force on facebook and stuff. My local Republican committee will post something, get ~150 likes, and all the responses are basically:

"Sleep Joe Biden will never win. TRUMP 2020!" Tom S Beanfarmer

I know it's easy to forget because every day is basically a waking nightmare, but the President is probably the weirdest person who's ever lived and if he was related to you you'd be rushing him to the ER worried he had a stroke.

trump hasn't had a normal human experience in 70 years. each and everything you have worried about your entire life has never even occurred to trump to be something to worry about. his entire life has been spent profiting off the misery of others making, to trump, "human misery" something to be desired, profited from, and looked down on.
trump's not "weird" he's the closest thing we'll ever get to seeing an alien

Many people have been saying, okay, "Mr. President, we've never heard a more perfect call in our lives." And it's... quite frankly, I've been making phone calls for longer than most people have been alive, okay?

I was making phone calls at a very early age, very young, they put me in the basement of a house and locked the door. And I was maybe... 2 years old? Maybe. Not a lotta people makin' phone calls at 2 years, but they locked me in the basement with the phone. And then the phone starts ringing and you can hear 'em yelling upstairs.

"Answer the phone, Donald, please answer the phone!"

And I'm a little baby here, okay, little child. Wonderful child with enormous hands, enormous everything, quite frankly. And I go over to pick up the phone and even then, even back then, I realize its not plugged in to anything, and I start crying - like a dog - and they're screaming at me to pick up the phone. So you.... you gotta pick up the phone. And then right away you regret picking it up, it's not good, not good at all.

My CHUD in-laws think New York City is a nightmarish hellhole where you'll get robbed, raped, beaten, murdered, and then dragged into the toxic sewers by CHUDs (the cool ones) to be transformed into a Democrat. There may or may not be major issues with the Foot Clan, I'm not sure of the current Ninja Turtle situation to be honest.

This is sure to add fuel to that fire.
