Ross Douthat rocks. Where else are you going to read stories about his friends wife who had a literal exorcism done?

I believe you're talking about Rod Dreher but essentially the same person and even their names are melting together

Would be great if they declare the FSLN a terrorist org, drone strike Nicaragua, and it becomes the new Honduras or El Salvador.
Meh who cares tho. What’s going on in China this morning? They imperializing anyone?

They didn't kill or kidnap anyone on foreign territory today as far as I can tell, but

The police in China are collecting blood samples from men and boys from across the country to build a genetic map of its roughly 700 million males, giving the authorities a powerful new tool for their emerging high-tech surveillance state.



They have swept across the country since late 2017 to collect enough samples to build a vast DNA database, according to a new study published on Wednesday by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, a research organization, based on documents also reviewed by The New York Times. With this database, the authorities would be able to track down a man’s male relatives using only that man’s blood, saliva or other genetic material...

Already, the program is running into an unusual amount of opposition in China.



“The ability of the authorities to discover who is most intimately related to whom, given the context of the punishment of entire families as a result of one person’s activism, is going to have a chilling effect on society as a whole,” said Maya Wang, a China researcher for Human Rights Watch.


The campaign even involves schools. In one southern coastal town in China, young boys offered up their tiny fingers to a police officer with a needle. About 230 miles to the north, officers wen't from table to table taking blood from schoolboys while the girls watched quizzically.



Jiang Haolin, 31, gave a blood sample, too. He had no choice.



The authorities told Mr. Jiang, a computer engineer from a rural county in northern China, that “if blood wasn’t collected, we would be listed as a ‘black household,’” he said last year, and it would deprive him and his family of benefits like the right to travel and go to a hospital.

do you get most of your information on China’s evil deeds from The New York Post and The New York Times?

that would explain your hatred of this place. 

[Sorley Boy]

Is what they reported wrong?

[ed]

Wrong that blood samples have been taken? Probably not. For that particular purpose though? Maybe.

[Sorley Boy]

If you'd read the article you'd know the government has said that's why they're collecting blood.

My dad's wife had no problem doing this shit, but is convinced vaccines cause autism.

I guess the chance of learning that you're 100% white changes things.

They should default those results to show that we’re all descendants from Africa.

Really blow some people’s minds.

I never knew my great grandfather, Padraig O'Donnel, and we all had questions about where he came from...

I can't fathom the idea of thinking that vaccines cause autism but the companies collecting your dna and tracking your whole damn family across continents are just being helpful...

Even if they're spying on us it will be worth it for all the eyetalians they showed to have African blood and all the Ashkenazi Israel hawks it showed to be French/German/Russian.
