post your hog while you’re at it

If I didn’t read theory and be a lib, I’d write the same. How does the NATO boot taste?

China doesn’t give a fuck what high income countries think about them because we still buy their shit anyway.

Good.

They care about the middle and lower income countries, though, because they can exploit minorities and pay lower income to outsource to them

Guys did you know that China does business with developing countries, just to exploit the minorities??

(which is crazy considering how little they pay their own laborers).

The coping and seething of the government taking action to a reported food scandal was more fun to read in the CNN article. They even admitted in the piece that you can freely criticize the government in China on social media lol

They don’t trust it, they just have no other figures to work off.

That’s why they publish it. Not like there are (western adaptations of) the Li Keqiang Index

1. At least have the decency to post the archive link https://archive.md/sgBQK
2. Youth unemployment in the article:

Calculating the actual employment rate is complex and it’s plausible the government decided the changing nature of the economy and labor patterns means their current model isn’t accurately reflecting reality.

Obtuse way to say that the category 16-24 olds are studying and not part of the labour force

3. Landsales: Communists don’t like speculation with real estate and land. Shocker. Not like they’ve been announcing a shift away from real estate to EV/Solar Panels/etc.
4. Currency Reserves, Bond Transactions, Academic Information, Politicians’ Biographies:

President Xi Jinping’s ideological battle with the US has also motivated Beijing to ringfence data it believes could advantage the Biden administration.

Based.

A 15 year trend of growth on average no matter how you measure it: market cap, number of nodes, transaction volume, transaction capacity, etc.

If you think that’s the critique of bitcoin then you have been blinded by techbros optimizim on the tech. Also it’s funny how you wave away bitcoin using up 1% of global electricity usage lol

Nobody trusts China’s economic stats.

Except the IMF, World Bank, Moody, Standard and Poor, etc.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin

lol

And think about how that tax revenue gets spent on weapons and not healthcare.

(Given those millionaires were able to circumvent China’s strict capital controls. Even if some of them did I’m sure they’d find a way of circumventing taxes in their new host country also)

They do not touch on the real reasons for these amendments. One is to look tough and nationalistic to their domestic audience. Another is to inflict psychological fear in Taiwanese and those who support Taiwan internationally that the CCP could potentially be coming for us, not only in China, Hong Kong and Macau, but in 45 other countries as well.

Hey guys did you know the real reason is to look tough and nationalistic and not (among other reasons) the US attempt to have an unsinkable air craft carrier to project power

According to human rights NGO Safeguard Defender

Taiwans ADIZ

I wonder why this extends into the mainland. Could there be historical context?

When the CCP is planning another dramatic change of the status quo, they go out of their way to also pick a date when it will send a message.

For example, often when countries switch diplomatic recognition from Taiwan to China, the announcement will be timed to pack a punch, such as Nauru making their announcement right after William Lai (賴清德) won the election. Similarly, there was no way the enormously complex live fire training exercises China launched to upend the status quo could have been planned in the tiny window of time from the-then US House of Representatives speaker Nancy Pelosi’s announcement she was to visit Taiwan and her arrival. They had planned it long in advance, — her trip was merely an excuse. To this day, it is common to see the Chinese military gray zone menacing behavior that continues being traced to Pelosi’s visit, almost as if she were somehow to blame.

Hey trust me they’ve been planing this for a long time. And these misogynists of course blame girl queen Pelosi. Not like China denounced the visit in advance. Classic reversal of cause and effect.

There you go dronnie:

Next time Google it yourself

Edit: Actually that one’s from 2020. Youll have to wait until western sources “verify” (read: cope) about it in a week or two

Just reactionaries banding together

Unlike what you prefer to read, which is not propaganda, right?

The country ramped up coal-fired generation, but also added more renewable capacity than the rest of the world combined, according to the annual Statistical Review Of World Energy from the Energy Institute (EI). This means the carbon intensity of its energy is actually falling.

Chinese consumption is being driven by the expansion of data centres, 5G infrastructure and car charging, while many factories are also running at full tilt to meet demand for goods overseas.

“We should not ignore the energy and emissions that Europeans have effectively exported to Chinese manufacturers,” EI chief executive officer Nick Wayth said.
