Yesterday, Twitter suspended all Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV accounts. Today, I've just found that Yemen's Ansarullah @Almasirah_Eng on Twitter is restricted.

No need for a "big event" but development. One of my ideas to reach it: Don't play "their" games - don't use "their" rules - don't think in the box of "their" paradigms.
It's more "refuse" than "resist" - without too much ideology. You don't need to know much about "what's going on behind the curtains", it's mainly to create your own rules together with like-minded people.

Xi says China's democracy is whole-process democracy
http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2019-11/03/c_138525172.htm
(anybody? Bueller? anybody know wtf this even means?? idk.)Shanghai, where he visited a residential community's civic center at a time a consultation meeting on a draft law was being held. Xi talked to both the Chinese and foreign residents attending the meeting and asked in detail about the work of soliciting opinions on the draft.
Xi said China is on the path of socialist political advancement with Chinese characteristics, where all major legislative decisions are made after going through procedures and democratic deliberations to make sure the decision-making is sound and democratic.
He called on more efforts to develop socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics.

He called on more efforts to develop socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics.
Perhaps because pre-revolutionary China was a feudalist, very bureaucratic country. For the mostly very poor population, oppressed in every aspect, the socialist dictatorship was felt to be something like "democracy.
Beyond that, what is euphemistically called democracy here in our countries is not that great either. It is rather an economic dictatorship. In Germany we call it "Demokratur", mixed of "Demokratie" and "Diktatur" (democracy and dictatorship).

Israel created the Islamist group as a rival to the PLO's secular nationalist Palestinian resistance.

It just seemed like a strangely worded xinhuanet article.Böhse Tante wrote:Zambeezi wrote:
Xi says China's democracy is whole-process democracy
http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2019-11/03/c_138525172.htm(anybody? Bueller? anybody know wtf this even means?? idk.)Shanghai, where he visited a residential community's civic center at a time a consultation meeting on a draft law was being held. Xi talked to both the Chinese and foreign residents attending the meeting and asked in detail about the work of soliciting opinions on the draft.
Xi said China is on the path of socialist political advancement with Chinese characteristics, where all major legislative decisions are made after going through procedures and democratic deliberations to make sure the decision-making is sound and democratic.
He called on more efforts to develop socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics.
Perhaps because pre-revolutionary China was a feudalist, very bureaucratic country. For the mostly very poor population, oppressed in every aspect, the socialist dictatorship was felt to be something like "democracy.
Beyond that, what is euphemistically called democracy here in our countries is not that great either. It is rather an economic dictatorship. In Germany we call it "Demokratur", mixed of "Demokratie" and "Diktatur" (democracy and dictatorship).
I'm not sure what are 'democratic deliberations' and 'soliciting opinions' REALLY means (to them).
It's obviously the gov't mouthpiece trying to portray themselves in a more humble/modest light as if 'deferring' to the 'people'.
propaganda and slogans. same as everywhere I guess.

Question is whether Democracy Now can tell the difference between a protest, a block party and a regime-change mob. I'm pretty sure they can't. Change the channel. https://t.co/0cpJNS6ps8

Putin speech gave a frank review of Primakov's role in orchestrating the Russian 'escape' and defiance from Unipolar pressures. Good stuff.
