Comrade Trump once again doing everything he can to accelerate the downfall of the kkkracker empire, it’s like his first term never ended 
"help, we won't be able to afford translators, and none of us "China Experts" speak a word of Mandarin"
Not like you need to know Mandarin to be a China Expert anyway
Reminder for anyone who doesn't know that Bethany here works for ASPI (Australian Strategic Policy Institute) - a borderline apocalyptically inclined think tank that pushes for nuclear war with China and is funded by the most unhinged people in the US defence & intelligence industry as well as the US and Taiwanese governments.
When they're not pushing for nuclear conflict with China, they also have a side business in helping the US fill in the gaps with misinformation for other conflicts.
One recent example being that when Israel bombed the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital at the start of the most recent genocidal operation in Gaza, UK (and other Euro) media rushed to create the false narrative that the hospital wasn't bombed by Israel, but that it was a 'stray rocket' fired by Hamas. Despite all independent analysis and common sense saying that it was indeed an Israeli bombing, Western media, including notably the BBC and Guardian here, continued trying to push this line for weeks by doing deep dive investigations and fact checks. If anyone had bothered to check the sources of these they would have found there only were two sources - one from a US military college and defence company, the other was an 'independent rocketry expert' who they didn't disclose worked for ASPI.
In the weeks that followed these 'investigations' Israel continued openly bombing hospitals.

”All over the world, wherever there are capitalists, freedom of the press means freedom to buy up newspapers, to buy writers, to bribe, buy and fake “public opinion” for the benefit of the bourgeoisie.
This is a fact.
No one will ever be able to refute it.”
who said that quote
just curious
“Freedom of the press” is another of the principal slogans of “pure democracy”. And here, too, the workers know — and Socialists everywhere have explained millions of times —that this freedom is a deception because the best printing presses and the biggest stocks of paper are appropriated by the capitalists, and while capitalist rule over the press remains — a rule that is manifested throughout the whole world all the more strikingly, sharply and cynically — the more democracy and the republican system are developed, as in America for example. The first thing to do to win really equality and genuine democracy for the working people, for the workers and peasants, is to deprive capital of the possibility of hiring writers, buying publishing houses and bribing newspapers. And to do that the capitalists and exploiters have to be overthrown and their resistance oppressed. The capitalists have always use the term “freedom” to mean freedom for the rich to get richer and for the workers to starve to death. And capitalist usage, freedom of the press means freedom of the rich to bribe the press, freedom to use their wealth to shape and fabricate so-called public opinion. In this respect, too, the defenders of “pure democracy” prove to be defenders of an utterly foul and venal system that gives the rich control over the mass media. They prove to be deceivers of the people, who, with the aid of plausible, fine-sounding, but thoroughly false phrases, divert them from the concrete historical task of liberating the press from capitalist enslavement. Genuine freedom and equality will be embodied in the system which the Communists are building, and in which there will be no opportunity for massing wealth at the expense of others, no objective opportunities for putting the press under the direct or indirect power of money, and no impediments in the way of any workingman (or groups of workingman, in any numbers) for enjoying and practicing equal rights in the use of public printing presses and public stocks of paper.
I asked chatgpt to explain like I'm a gamer and it said capitalism is just voting with your wallet
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
China's governance model is deeply flawed.
Meanwhile...
Honestly the worst part rn is musk and his broccoli head crew
wasnt there some “lgbt center” that was shut down in china because it was actually a US funded front to rile people up against the government using identity as a proxy?
Not sure but it definitely happened in Georgia
poor shen yun
Oh god I’ll be so happy if I never have to see one of their naff posters stuck to a lamppost ever again
They'll find a way
China's model is so flawed that it's collapsing into facsism- oh wait that's the US
White Man's Burden in all but name.
White Man's Burger more like
A white man's burger sounds like the most boring burger ever. I'm imagining just a plain bun with a couple of unseasoned overcooked patties in it. No condiments.
Well they can just be replaced with AI, replacing american bots with actual bots will just be more efficient.
win!
