Unironically yes, they are. Whose else do you think it could even possibly be?
Genuinely, what the hell are you doing in this community? I've never read a more snide and condescending derision of an entire field of labor based on an entirely corporatist, anti-worker, grindset worldview on this forum to date. Following this line of thought across our society leads us to an absolute fucking dystopia, and somehow you've not only internalized it and self aggrandize about how you pulled yourself up to the next level of success by your bootstraps, you've went and tried to argue that asinine point in a community focused on strengthening the rights, powers, and well being of the common worker.
Why are you here?
Open source Android is a thing??? TIL that might be my solution to this long term since I sideload apps regularly.
Mostly likely yes (insofar as a single bank can matter). When banks collapse it sets off a cascade of debt defaults which rapidly contracts the real money supply in an economy, since most actual wealth (and, in turn, the physical creation and transfer of goods, services, and labor that facilitates) is created via fractional reserve lending. This causes a recession. If it was only this bank, it probably wouldn't be that huge of a deal for China more broadly. But it's not only this bank, and it is a huge number of provincial pet banks all tied to the same development and speculation industry. There's a reason economists have been sounding alarm bells. That's not to say China doesn't have the resources to deal with this and/or the fallout, but it is at least a problem to be dealt with.

Recent history has led me to be highly pessimistic about this being translated into positive life improvements for regular people ranger than simply further enriching and empowering billionaire lords and police and military megaaparati, but the people at BD seem to be genuinely interested in ensuring their inventions are firstly used for good, so that's nice.
The heart of the barn owl's face gets me every time 🥺
GRS still has no idea how to draw masculine faces and it's hilarious to see every time cause it always looks like every man in their comics is a femboy
It's interesting cause it looks like a simple wood fence but with a wire mesh or chain link of sorts lined along it so it's "solid" to most animals
We'd never believe those ones
On par, roughly. More prevelent sexual torture/rape, less prevelent mass demolition of homes/property, similar in many other ways, and similar severity of atrocity all things considered early on.
god fucking damnit
I already hate these lowlifes who decide to take out their issues on innocent kids, but now this one's gone the extra mile to endanger their own entire vulnerable community nationwide. I don't even know what to do with this anger.
