<p>Most people are tired of censors who propagate their moral rulesets self righteously. In the 70s/80s/90s it was the Christian right against music and video games.<p>Now it's the progressive left against everyone else, calling them nazis, fascists, and alt right. This ostracizes the center so good luck with that...</p>

<p>Most people ignore women's general bisexuality, and confuse this by equating sexual preference as "complicated".<p>Not for men (for the most part, as in 99%). They either love vagina, and are disgusted by penis, or vice versa.<p>On the other side, most "straight" women, fantasize and experiment with the same sex, and to them, preference is usually on a sliding scale.<p>That all said, sexual preference is further confusing when we have a large subset of straight males, being attracted to very feminine transsexuals, like Bailey Jay.<p>To me this means male sexual preference is holistic, meaning if you pass as a woman, but have a penis, you may attract many straight males, who would gag at the idea of a well toned and very masculine male.<p>Even if the masculine "man" was a woman passing as one, with a vagina.</p>

<p>Interesting stuff, I checked the website out and was impressed by the design.<p>I'm not too familiar with analytics and marketing, but I did like how the contribution and web store mechanics were set up.<p>That all said, I'm curious how much revenue you can attribute to optimization versus just general interest when it came to people wanting to donate, or buy a MAGA hat.<p>What I mean is, how much money could have been generated, without utilizing optimization tools such as the ones you used from Adobe, and by adding "Official" to everything.<p>Not trying to demoralize them, I'm just curious if they could separate that revenue, and point to a portion of it that directly came from optimization.</p>

<p>> "I really don't think that the six-hour day fits with an entrepreneurial world, or the start-up world," argues Erik Gatenholm, chief executive of Gothenburg-based bio-ink company.<p>> He is candid enough to admit he tested the method on his production staff after "reading about the trend on Facebook" and musing on whether it could be an innovative draw for future talent.<p>> But the firm's experiment was ditched in less than a month, after bad feedback from employees.<p>We already have short work weeks. It's called part time. If you don't like the pay, blame reality. This experiment was done with tax money, and my guess is businesses would not voluntarily pay more for less work, without massive subsidy, which would be pro large corporation, and anti small business.</p>

<p>All of my "confidence" is based on stockpiles of nuclear arnaments, nuclear submarine capabilities, missile shields, nuclear destination sites for both parties, potential first strike responses, allied coalitions, global trade, and internal strife.<p>China loses. Plain and simple. So, given that China obviously knows what I know, a trade restructuring is the best way for both sides to Win.<p>Lopsided deals from the 70s, when Kissinger gave our millionaires cheap labour from China - Doesn't work anymore.</p>

<p>Actually that's naive. Missile sites, response times, stockpiles, missle tech, defensive shields Nuclear submarines.<p>I get discouraged talking strategy with people who have no clue about modern capabilities.<p>Russia VS US would be game over. Pakistan VS India would decimate 50-70% of World Population - but not game over.<p>China has a very small stockpile of missiles. Also, All of them would get shot down, while Nuclear Subs of the coast of China would destroy every population center.<p>Not to mention, first strike with this capability by the US could mean no war... Just absolute and total victory.<p>So again, per my original point. Trade will be restructured. China KNOWS this!</p>

<p>> Sorry you can't handle that fact.<p>I like how buddy proves to you he's right, and you have the gall to act like you're right.<p>Besides, this argument is over pedantics.

<p>OP Here, my whole point was America's power would get them a better trade deal.

And I replied to you to agree with you - Trump one because giving lopsided deals makes NO SENSE - Unless you're a billionaire wanting cheaper labour in the 70s...</p>

<p>China stands absolutely no chance in a direct war with US and her allies.<p>Not only do we absolutely decimate them in nuclear and naval capabilities, our combined allied forces would decimate them technologically, on the ground, and through strategic embargoing, attrition, psychological warfare, etc.<p>We and our allies literally surround them. Not only that, look into geopolitics, Trump getting a call from Taiwan pisses China off more than giving them weapons. Why? Acknowledging and reaffirming our commitment to protect them, angers them more than physical capability of defense for Taiwan.<p>China enslaves a portion of its citizens, jails activists, kidnaps Taiwanese, support DPRK, among other things.<p>Trump is remapping Asian relations, because China isn't strong, nor are they suicidal. Rewriting our trade relations will help us, and if they continue being friends with us, good for them as well.<p>A restructuring is likely, and a war will only happen if our Asian allies or China forces our hand. If so, we win, based on any strategic viewpoint of might.</p>
