What? Why honorary black belts even exist in the first place?  lol

Dunno. But Obama has an honorary 9th dan black belt too. Unless they trained for years to earn it it's a bit of a joke token
Didn't know about Obama but Putin trained judo with the KGB.

universities give out honourary degrees

Okay, but if someone has an honorary degree in gender studies... wait no that would be scarier than a fake black belt.

Scarier indeed.  What if universities weaponize this by threatening to give the likes of Ben Shapiro an honorary critical race theory degree?

Judo isn't taekwondo though, and that's the one that he was just stripped of.

Apparently, but I didn't know anything about it until hearing it was being stripped! If you google it though, you'll see the latest news is about him losing his honorary taekwondo black belt.

This has been going around and it's not really Moldova. It's Transnistria, which is a Russian separatist region, basically controlled by the Russia military under the guise of it being like a museum or whatever. Showing that map was probably still a pretty stupid tactical error since it shows Ukraine being divided up into 4 regions and seem to show their invasion plans, but people getting worked up about Putin moving into Moldova next are missing the fact that the region shown on that map is very well known to be a Russian controlled area already and considered separate from Moldova.

Edit to add: It's also supposed to be a demilitarized zone, so obviously planning an attack into Ukraine via that area is still an escalation and a break from long-established norms.

More likely that they were considering using Transnistria as a safe heaven/for resupplying. The area in red is Transnistria.

It makes sense if they're all bottled up in the north and have to drive there single file. And this way they won't get lost. They just follow the guy in front of them. Just as long as they remembered to give the first guy gps.
Just as an FYI, Russia has their own gps system called GLONASS.  However, Russia has been known to deliberately screw up their maps so that enemies have a harder time finding their targets.  Wouldn't it be something if the troops got those screwed up maps?   8)

There.  Saved you from having to read the book.

As I understand it the book is really more of a different work, not necessarily better.  Probably more influential overall.

No, it's not the corporations who are evil, it's the people!
They aren't evil, they're just trying to survive.


I just want you to examine your opinion that the reason Walmart, a multi billion dollar corporation, uses cheap Chinese labor is so that it can pass that savings on to poor people in the United States.
While not wrong, its more like...

Walmart, in order to keep being a multi billion dollar corporation that sells to people who buy the lowest cost product, uses cheap Chinese labor and agressive negotiation tactics to ensure they don't lose customers to Target.

The people who typically shop at walmart do not care where a Tshirt comes from, just that its the lowest cost tshirt they can get.
Walmart, as a business, would happily buy 100% American products, produced by good paying jobs, if their constomers actually would buy them.  Especially if it meant the 25% markup would give them more profit. (25% markup of a $5 shirt isn't as good as 25% markup of a $10 shirt)
But their customers can't afford to buy higher cost, but US made, products.  So.... they don't sell them.
Its simple business.

I firmly believe that if 90% of everyone who shops at walmart suddenly stopped shopping there because they wanted to support ONLY American products, Walmart would shift their business model very quickly.  But this isn't going to happen because 90% of the people who shop at walmart can't afford American made.

What? Why honorary black belts even exist in the first place?  lol

Dunno. But Obama has an honorary 9th dan black belt too. Unless they trained for years to earn it it's a bit of a joke token
.... that's a god damn joke.
https://taekwondo.fandom.com/wiki/Barack_Obama
Apparently he DID train for several years and has a green belt.  And it was given to him by the president of South Korea.
Still a joke and an insult to the martial art.


Gone.
