Seems like this is a shocking development for a lot of people who bought into China collapse narratives floating in the west.

agreed

a good explanation of why that is https://americanaffairsjournal.org/2021/08/the-value-of-nothing-capital-versus-growth/

The reality is that capitalism is already visibly failing today, and we see mass civil unrest growing across the western world as a result. It’s possible that bandaid solutions like UBI may be attempted, but it’s pretty clear that there would need to be major restructuring of economic fundamentals going forward.

I find this is a great visual illustration of how easily the media is able to manipulate public opinion. You can see how the views on China just flip in realtime once the propaganda campaign starts

My point is that rapid explosion of automation ushered by robotics as we’re seeing happening in China will make capitalism an unviable economic system.

There’s also a second aspect to this as well. Capitalism is built on consumerism which requires people to work to earn disposable income that they spend on goods and services.

Seems like that would have to be the inevitable result of all this. When machines can do most jobs better than humans, then the whole idea of working for a living stops making sense.

I don’t take anything Trump says seriously, you have ignore the noise and watch what he actually does.

Resources and control of the emerging trade routes due to global warming.

there is this http://www.orangepi.org/html/hardWare/computerAndMicrocontrollers/details/Orange-Pi-RV2.html

your immune system will be feasting on some pork :)

oh nice, I’ll start posting on there at some point

Oh they give 20 gigs of space, I made a tankietube account after but already started posting on this instance so just kept going with it.

Again, it’s very clear that it’s not fascism that the government takes issue with.

Oh hey, weird how this wasn’t a problem until Georgescu started running. He was in Romanian politics and even in the government for a long time last I checked, so clearly Romanian regime didn’t have a problem with fascist groups before. And all of a sudden they started caring when it became convenient for them. Seems to me that it’s not fascism that’s the problem for them.

I love how you’re getting downvoted for stating factual information that’s been reported in mainstream western media https://www.politico.eu/article/investigation-ties-romanian-liberals-tiktok-campaign-pro-russia-candidate-calin-georgescu/

I find I like to follow what analysts like Ben Norton report to get some context around the news. I evaluate whom I pay attention to based on their track record, and how well their predictions align with the way things actually developed.

I believe the term for this is manifesting.
