Aung San Suu Kyi was a western puppet, but the junta is not a friend of the Myanmar people. Socialist revolution after a non comprador revolution is the way to go.

The Communist Party of Burma has a long history. What they choose to call their nation is up to them. The OP of the news is Burmese.

What’s wrong with ordinary Chinese people having interest in what’s unfolding in a neighbouring country? It’s just a blog post, nothing to do with the PRC government.

What Burmese people want to do, and what their vanguard party does is up to them. They have the right to settle their own internal affairs. Fighting a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie is good.
Keep in mind that communists also suffer immense repression under this military junta.
I look out from my tent, and before me I see a city, not one of stone but of cloth. A tent city of the XIV, XV, XVI, I, II, III, XVII, X, IX and V legions. Though it was, on the face of things, calm, even from here I could hear the sound of barked orders and of troops forming ranks. In a couple of hours, this city will be gone, like it had never existed - and we would continue our march. We march south, to the lands of Axum. Their wealth is legendary, their cities large and numerous, but it is not the though of conquering cities that motivates me, nor is it chiefly a desire to ensure that my legacy would continue far beyond death - that has already been assured - it is the simple fact and product upon which all society rests - that of commerce and money.
I had lost land through some, shall we say, inopportune decisions on my part, and my reputation has been tarnished as a result - though I have the utmost respect for my fellow governors and senators, I can't help but feel limited. It seems there is no more to conquer, no more lands to expand to - no more legacies to be made - except to the south. Only to the south can I expand.
It has been 2 days an we near the border shared with CN. A small group of guards ask for confirmation of my intent and plans, though what they would have done had I not been who they were expecting, I do not know. We are given passage to return, but as I am already near the western border of my lands, I opt to march around the border. It is more convenient like this, there is an oasis nearby, and many more after that should I take this route.
For the purposes of speed and the necessity of knowing the land, we had hired a guide who's knowledge of the route was not only professed by himself, but everyone we had talked to to verify his claims.
"Just another hour's march, at this rate," said our guide, I never took the time to know his name but I will change that, "the oasis is one of the largest on our path, so it's my advise that you spend the rest of the day and the night watering your horses and giving your men rest." I cast a curious glance at him, his knowledge of typical procedure is almost certainly derived from common sense, but he had also expressed a knowledge of the more intricate workings of the legions, the cohorts, even the small groups of tents that form the century. I expressed as much to him. He looked surprised, at first, then with a slightly nervous stammer told me that he had been a studen

I've a question regarding clinical usage of nerve gliding (e.g. slump test, median nerve flossing, etc.) as treatment approach. The movement tends to provoke symptom, causing irritation, and may be more severe in cervical & lumbar cases,
Would it still be optimal to prescribe them as manual therapy/exercise, or is it something you would avoid entirely.
Thank you.
