My world is far better than yours.

Fvck Buttigieg for dropping out 2 days before Super Tuesday in exchange for a cabinet position. And fvck Biden for proposing/going along with it. It makes me sick.
"We learned Wednesday that Walt Disney Company Executive Chairman Bob Iger may become America's next ambassador to the People's Republic of China. Few people have made more money from their connections to the Chinese government than Bob Iger, and fewer still are as openly grateful for it. Video
In 2016, the Shanghai Disneyland theme park opened. Iger called it "a celebration of creativity and collaboration, a triumph of imagination and innovation, and a testament to the strong partnership between Disney and China.
"Together," Iger said, "we have created an extraordinary destination, a magical place unique in all the world, where East meets West, the past meets the future, and anything is possible for those who believe."
In fact, it took more than belief and faith to get that deal done. According to The New York Times, Iger met personally with China's propaganda minister in 2010 and promised that he would use Disney's global platform to "introduce more about China to the world."
In other words, Disney promised to spread Chinese government propaganda, and that's what they did. Disney began working directly with Beijing's Ministry of Culture, and that partnership produced the 2016 film "Born in China", which promised to, "showcase to the world the spectacular wildlife and natural beauty of China."
Iger also granted the Chinese government a 30% share in the Disney management company that ran the Shanghai property, plus a 57% ownership stake in the Shanghai resort, including revenues from merchandise, restaurants and hotels.
Now, put yourself in Iger's position. You've watched for decades as the government of China has hurt your country, hurt your fellow Americans. If you were a patriotic person, would you jump into business deals with the people who did that? Bob Iger did.
But if you start to get the impression that Bob Iger will do anything for a buck, slow down for a minute. That's not entirely true. Bob Iger is a sensitive soul, a man of deep conviction and principle, at least he is here in America.
Just last year, Bob Iger announced that it would be "difficult" for his company to film in the state of Georgia. Why? Because the state of Georgia was moving forward with a law that would ban abortions after doctors could detect a fetal heartbeat. Bob Iger was offended by that. He'd like more Americans to abort their children and he's willing to pay the price for that high ideal.
But in China, there's a separate slate of standards. China can throw ethnic minorities in concentration camps. China can weld coronavirus patients into their apartments until they starve to death and crush protesters with tanks on television. None of that bothers Bob Iger. He loves China and he's not shy about saying so.
"They welcomed us there and let us build Shanghai Disneyland, so we have a good relationship with the government of China and local governments in China, and our access has actually increased over time," Iger said last year. "I generally, at least as the CEO of the Walt Disney Company, look at China quite favorably."
We should note that Joe Biden isn't thinking of nominating Bob Iger in spite of his praise for the communist government of China. Sucking up to China is the qualification. Iger is just following the lead of the Biden family."

Yes, and no. Morocco, UAE, and Bahrain will be getting a deal on about half a Billion in American armaments in exchange for recognizing Israel. Sudan will move one step closer to moving off the 'most hated' list by recognizing Israel.
