@LuYauk You guys really don't know how tariffs work do you? Unless the importer absorbs the cost, which they won't, the consumer ends up paying the tariffs. The Chinese consumers will pay 10% vs American consumers pay 30%. China wins!

@CollinSLKoh It's obviously you haven't travelled around China in the recent decades. You would really have to actively go out of your way to find a beggar in any of major city on the Chinese mainland. Unless of course you were talking about China's Taiwan or maybe Hong Kong?

@DSORennie I don't see a problem with that. What's wrong with intergrating the poor into society and teaching them skills to get jobs and be Ble to support themselves? Why spin it as a negative?

@DSORennie If my government gave me a free apartment, I'd be ok with putting his picture up on my wall too. I'd be pretty grateful to be honest.

China's FM Wang Yi with 4 straightforward questions for the US, in the context of the bill to ban TikTok, the semiconductors sanctions on China, and the multiplication of banned Chinese products in the US (EV cars, port cranes, etc.)

"If the US says one thing and does another, where is its credibility as a major country?

If it gets jittery whenever it hears the word 'China', where is its confidence as a major country?

If it only wants itself to prosper but denies other countries' legitimate development, where is international fairness?

If it persistently monopolizes the high-end of the value chain and keeps China at the low end, where is fairness in competition?"

Israel knows who and how many CHILDREN are in a building before they bomb it.

A 17 Year US Army Veteran speaks out about the technology that we and Israel have.

They have technology that they can see EXACTLY who is in a building before they bomb it, including how many children.

THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

One of the main reasons the self-immolation of Aaron Bushnell is having such an earthshaking impact on our society is because it’s the single most profound act of sincerity that any of us have ever witnessed.

In this fraudulent civilization where everything is fake and stupid, we are not accustomed to such sincerity. We’re accustomed to vapid mainstream culture manufactured in New York and Los Angeles, airheaded celebrities who never talk about anything real, self-aggrandizing Instagram activism, synthetic political factions designed to herd populist discontent into support for status quo politics, phony shitlib “I hear you, I stand with you [but I won’t actually do anything]” posturing, endless propaganda and diversion from the mass media and its online equivalents which are algorithmically boosted by Silicon Valley tech plutocrats, and a mind-controlled dystopia where almost everyone is sleepwalking through life in a psyop-induced fog.

That is the sort of experience we have been conditioned to expect here in the shadow of the western empire. And then, out of nowhere, some Air Force guy comes along and does something real. Something as authentic and sincere as anything could possibly be, with the very noblest of intentions.

He live-streamed himself lighting himself on fire and burning to death in order to draw people’s attention to how horrific the US-backed atrocities in Gaza actually are. Knowing full well how painful it would be. Knowing full well he’d either die or survive with horrific burns and wish he’d died. Knowing full well that once he connected the flame with the accelerant he poured onto his body, there’d be no turning back.

He didn’t back down. He didn’t go home and stuff his face with snacks and gossip in the group chat and see what types of mindless escapism are available on Netflix or Pornhub. He lit the flame. He even struggled to light it at first, and he still did.

There’s nothing in our society that can prepare us for that kind of sincerity. That kind of selflessness. That kind of purity of intention. It stops us dead in our tracks, as if the fabric of our world has been ripped asunder. And, in a way, it has.

We’re not really living in the same world we were living in before Aaron Bushnell lit himself on fire at 1 PM on February 25th. It was far too sincere an act, committed in the least sincere city on this planet. It shook things around far too much for all the pieces to fit fully back into place.

I myself am permanently changed. I find myself reapproaching the Gaza genocide with fresh eyes, renewed vigor, and invincible determination. I now write with a different kind of fire in my guts.

And looking around I can see it’s much the same for others. Where previously we’d begun seeing the opposition to the incineration of Gaza beginning to lose a bit of energy due to despair and how hard it is to keep something energized for months on end, we are now seeing electrifying enthusiasm.

More importantly, this is shaking things up in mainstream society and not just within the pro-Palestine crowd. We’re seeing Bushnell’s final words about the US empire’s complicity with genocide shared on mainstream networks like CNN and ABC, while Israel apologists run around falling all over themselves trying to tell people nobody cares about what Bushnell did like a guy sending a woman dozens of texts saying he’s totally unbothered that she rejected his advances. A member of the US military lighting himself on fire while screaming “Free Palestine” is absolutely devastating to the information interests of Israel and the United States, because it shakes people awake like nothing else ever could.

All around our fake plastic dystopia people are now opening their eyes, saying “Wait, huh? That man did what? Why? I thought nothing matters but my comfort and my feelings and my small circle of people I care about? My country is complicit in a what now? Is it possible I’ve been missing something important?”

With his profound act of sincerity, Aaron Bushnell extended the world an invitation to a very different way of looking at life. An invitation to pierce through the veil of superficiality and narcissism to a radical authenticity and a deep compassion for our fellow human beings. To a profound sincerity of our own, with which we can shake the world awake in our own unique ways.

At 1 PM on February 25th, Aaron Bushnell lit more than one kind of fire. A fire that drives us to act. A fire that lights the way. A fire that inspires us. A fire that shows us another way of being. A fire which shows us a better world is possible.

We won’t forget his message. We couldn’t if we tried.

The hypocrisy of the US government is incredible! Last year the US blocked shipments of cotton from China, accusing Chinese clothing companies of using forced and prison labor. But a new report from AP highlights US clothing manufactorers are now exporting clothes to China using supplies harvested by US prisoners! You literally can't make this stuff up 🤦‍♂️

I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP
Compare these Chinese and US lists:

The aid consists of
a) food
b) medicine.

The US this week said it was deeply concerned about deaths of innocent women and children in Gaza and is providing more than US$10 billion worth of aid … to Israel.
The aid consists of:
a) Air-launched precision bombs and joint direct attack munitions
b) Patriot anti-missile battery launchers
c) Officer level troops
d) Armoured land vehicles
e) Special intelligence officers
f) Shipments of 115mm artillery rounds

One of the most under reported catastrophes happened in Pakistan with US’s toppling of PM @ImranKhanPTI ‘s democratically elected government in April of 2022 because of his “aggressively neutral” stance on Ukraine war and it continues to date with zero reporting of the aftermath following his removal from the office. The military establishment and their civilian allies have effectively abrogated the constitution, dismantled all democratic norms and have been committing the worst human rights violations — that include forced abductions of Khan’s supporters and party members, assassinations of journalists, media blackouts — Pakistan has ever seen with full support from Washington & its allies in UK & EU. The goal, prevent Khan from ever getting back into office, which he would by all accounts, has resulted in zero focus on governance hence the skyrocketing inflation and energy bills have condemned a country of 240 million people into an unending misery where people are left with no choice but to commit suicides. The country is seeing mass protests and shutdowns against worsening living conditions but there’s not a whiff of it anywhere.

During PM Khan’s 3 1/2 years of compassionate governance the country was going through an unprecedented change & prosperity, not experienced before — 6% growth, jobs, exports, universal healthcare. Now Khan’s languishing in a death cell facing about 200 trumped up charges that also include blasphemy, terrorism, sedition & murder.

The threatening cable by the Biden regime to Pakistan literally reads — Remove Khan or face international isolation — is very well covered here @theintercept thanks to @MazMHussain @ryangrim who faced malicious attacks from the corporate media touts for outing the evidence of US interference and the subsequent regime change in Pakistan.

November 3rd also marks a one year anniversary of the assassination attempt on Khan which failed.

The President of Pakistan Dr. @ArifAlvi has given a new date and called for general elections to be held on Thursday February 8 2024, lets respect the will of the people for once.

If you're among the millions of people who are coming to realize that the western political/media class have been lying to you about Israel-Palestine this entire time, you should probably be aware that they've been lying to you about every other foreign conflict as well.

🇨🇳China voted against the UN Security Council Draft Resolution on the 🇵🇸Palestinian-🇮🇱Israeli conflict!
Why?
Ambassador @ChinaAmbUN's answer is BASED!👇
◾️China is by no means indifferent to the sufferings of the people in Gaza. What China opposes is that the draft resolution selectively avoids referring to the root causes of the current humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and fails to urge Israel to lift its full siege on Gaza and to rescind the evacuation order for northern Gaza. Such an evasive and ineffectual approach will only accelerate Gaza’s falling into an even greater humanitarian catastrophe.
◾️China is by no means denying Israel's security concerns. On the contrary, China has always strongly advocated that equal attention should be paid to the security concerns and legitimate rights of both Israel and Palestine. What China opposes is that the draft resolution attempts to establish a new narrative on the Palestinian question, ignoring the fact that the Palestinian territory has been occupied for a long time and evading the fundamental issue of independent statehood for the Palestinian people. It is worth being vigilant that the draft departs from the spirit of previous UN resolutions and embeds the dangerous logic of the clash of civilizations and the justification of war and use of force.
◾️China is by no means indifferent to acts that harm civilians. What China opposes is that the draft resolution does not call on the parties concerned to stop the indiscriminate and asymmetrical use of force, nor does it call for a thorough investigation into the heinous attacks such as the one on the Al-Ahli Hospital. Such selective application of international law and double standards will only push more innocent civilians to the brink of death.
In terms of the content, the draft is seriously out of balance and confuses right and wrong.
◾️China is by no means opposing the Council taking action. What China opposes is that the draft resolution is evasive on the most urgent issue of ending the hostility. It has never been able to call for an immediate ceasefire in clear and unambiguous terms. If a Council resolution is ambiguous on the question of war and peace and of life and death, it is not only irresponsible but also extremely dangerous.

In terms of the approach, the draft was introduced in haste and lacked the consensus it deserved.
In terms of the effect, the draft does not reflect the world’s strongest calls for a ceasefire and an end to the fighting, and it does not help resolve the issue. 

That's why, China vetoed it!
