On June 4, the world marks 37 years since the Chinese Communist Party ordered its troops to attack thousands of peaceful demonstrators in and around Tiananmen Square. Those who sacrificed to uphold their unalienable rights of free expression and peaceful assembly will be vindicated someday.
어제(6/2) 18시경 제주 신라면세점 앞 충격적인 현장
중국인 3명이 한국 땅에서 난동을 부렸습니다.
폭행당한 사람들은 중국공산당이 한 짓과 실체를 세상에 알리고 있는 파룬궁 수련자들.
현재 제주도 핵심 상권과 유명 관광지의 숙박 산업의 중추를 중국 자본이 무서운 속도로 장악하고 있는 것은 엄연한 사실.
여기가 한국인지 중국인지 분간이 안감.
제주도가 중국인으로 가득 찬 것 같다.
느껴지는 피로감이 엄청나다.
남의 나라 땅에서 폭력을 휘두르는 공산당 분자들.
어제 지인이 제주도에서 찍은 것.

Prompt: Ultra-realistic sports broadcast still of a glamorous woman sitting in a packed football stadium crowd during a night match, wearing a dark brown sleeveless high-neck satin top and black square earrings, shoulder-length light brown/blonde hair styled in soft waves. She is casually drinking from a tall blue aluminum can while holding a half-eaten cheeseburger in the other hand. Around her are fans in bright yellow and blue football jerseys and scarves, creating strong team-color contrast. The scene feels candid and cinematic, captured mid-game from a TV broadcast camera angle with shallow depth of field. Include realistic stadium seating, crowded audience atmosphere, broadcast overlay graphics in the top-left corner showing a live football score and match timer, and a sports network watermark in the top-right. Natural arena lighting, detailed skin texture, sharp focus on the woman, slightly blurred background crowd, authentic live sports broadcast aesthetic, 16:9 composition.
Nick Shirley just revealed the STRANGEST answer he got from a Cuban on his trip.
He described a reality so disturbing it exposes exactly how the government’s control destroys everyday freedom.
SHIRLEY: “One person said they haven’t had eggs in a year.”
“They talk about these books that they have, I think they call them their ration book, where the government controls how much food they get and they’re like, this is horrible. We haven’t even had eggs in a year. It takes years to get to eat a chicken.”
“Stuff that you wouldn’t even think about here in the United States. But because of communism and the government controlling what people can actually do and what they can eat, it dictates their entire life.”
This is the nightmare communism delivers.
just spent 2 weeks in china. went into it thinking we're cooked. came back more bullish on america than ever. here's why:
1. chinese citizens are way more chronically online. on the subway, train, anywhere, literally everyone is glued to their phone. gaming, short form, wechat. "don't walk and look at your phone, it's dangerous!" announcements flood crowded areas. their tiktok isn't any better, its still garbage, soft-core porn, etc.
2. everyone's using AI — deepseek, kimi, doubao. but nobody's afraid of losing their job to it. here it feels like there's an existential crisis every week. in china, nothing. i think the CCP won't let companies mass-layoff workers. great for short-term stability. terrible for long-term competitiveness on a global scale.
3. china doesn't produce weirdos. i sat in on a class at tsinghua (china's MIT). not one student spoke unless the professor read their name out loud. no questions. no debate. chinese education produces world-class executors, not contrarians. it does make it a safer place to live though.
4. china doesn't have christianity but it has something america doesn't have: a shared story everyone believes in. every person age 25-70 watched their country go from abject poverty to skyscrapers in one lifetime. that kind of collective proof has a deep unifying effect. compare that to how divided we are right now. america has a huge meaning vacuum that needs to be filled.
nevertheless, i return back to my home in america reinvigorated. because everything i saw confirms one thing: china optimizes. america innovates. and the innovators always win.
