Well, it makes perfect sense when you realize these people view kids as nothing more than instruments of economic growth - forcing parents to work in conditions they don't want to, to make ends meet. And nowadays, even lowering working age and working conditions for the kids themselves to force them to work as well. They are purely pro-capitalism and they want the kids to be forced to be born so there will be a steady supply of meat for the grinder. It's that simple.

It's not so much about Jesus himself being a political figure, it's more a question of which ideologies more closely align with his teachings. So it's probably more accurate to say "liberal ideology is significantly more similar to Jesus's teachings than conservative ideology."

‘Ukrainian strategy has become a model’: Taiwanese beef up military to face China threat

Reply in thread

I also hugely doubt China's blustering is as severe as Russia's. I know all militaries overstate their capabilities but I think one of the biggest factors in Ukraine's successful defense so far was that Russia was spouting all stars and then it turned out they had more like a junior varsity high school team. I think the delta between the perception and reality of China's military capabilities is much lower.

What meal could you have forever?

yellow potatoes, chopped into 3/4 - 1" cubes, fried in coconut oil for 15 minutes or so, remove from heat (I pour them in a bowl)

Chop up onions, garlic, ginger, and the spiciest chili peppers you can handle (for my wife, serranos) - also fry up in coconut oil, with ground cumin, coriander seed, and turmeric (or just use curry powder)

Add some diced tomatoes - either manually diced or canned are honestly fine. I usually make it along with saffron paneer masala, so I use most of the tomatoes for the masala and just a bit for the aloo gobi. Cook until it's basically gravy

Add cauliflower, partially pre-cooked potatoes, and stir to combine - cover and lower heat. You can also add a bit of butter or more coconut oil at this point to help things fry up. Add salt to taste (I like to use some black salt - Kala namak). Amchur (mango) powder is also a great addition.

Stir every 5-10 minutes to make sure things get nice and combined. When the potatoes start falling apart and the cauliflower gets noticeably soft, it's done.
