America is once again resorting to the same familiar tactic, attempting to sabotage a region’s economy, starve its people, and then convince the world that their suffering is somehow deserved because they are “evil.” Fortunately, this time China will not surrender. It will not only endure, but continue to thrive.

Untarred roads in Africa are called underdevelopment, an eyesore. Untarred roads stretching for miles in the US are called off-road tracks, or wait for it, scenic routes, or part of the outdoor experience. 😂

Very good. 😏

Today, we #Uyghurs are facing unemployment again, all because of your so-called the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act Entity List. You keep repeating this lie with the aim of committing genocide against the Uyghurs.

300 million tourists a year go to Xinjiang, and yet you keep using the same debunked picture from a drug rehabilitation center.

China is NOT using slave labor.

But Israel is conducting a genocide.

The fact that Michael condemns something without evidence but ignores proven injustices tells me that Michael doesn't care about injustice, he cares about slandering Chinese people and their government.

A 22-year-old student teacher in Illinois sent a private Snapchat message to her boyfriend and two roommates.

A student had walked up to her laptop and deleted her lesson plan mid-class. frustrated, she typed something like "should I shoot him" with a gun emoji. venting. four people. private group chat.

An hour later, police walked into her school and arrested her.

here's what happened in between.

Snapchat's AI scanned the private message. flagged it as a potential threat. automatically reported it to the FBI. the FBI forwarded it to local law enforcement. deputies arrived at the school within the hour.

she cooperated immediately. handed over her phone. when shown the message she said: "oh yes. okay. yeah. i'm realizing that was a bad joke. i did not mean it at all serious at all."

police determined she was not a threat. school officials determined she was not a threat. prosecutors reviewed and issued a disorderly conduct charge. she was released the next morning. she lost her student teaching placement.

This means:

Snapchat scans private messages.

Not just public posts or stories. private group chats between you and your closest contacts. automated AI. no human reviewed it first, got flagged and reported.

Snapchat AI → FBI → local police → school → arrest.

in under an hour.

Snapchat's privacy policy says it may share your information with law enforcement when it believes there is a risk of harm. the definition of "risk of harm" is determined by an algorithm.

you are not told when a message is flagged.
you are not told when a report is filed.
you find out when the police arrive.

the message was private.

it wasn't.

How many cities in Nigeria are better than 1994 Guangzhou?

[Angelica 🌐⚛️🇹🇼🇨🇳🇺🇸 @AngelicaOung]

All denomination Christians 25 million or 2% of the adult population.

Uyghurs 12 million, 1% of the population.

I constantly see China’s successes put down to the fact that they use Uyghur “slave labor”

They don’t need to make it make sense. They just need to smear.

Xinjiang is open now. Endless content uploaded on the internet. You can drive through it unsupervised in an RV as a foreigner. No one cares.

But you prefer to post the same COVID era photo of a rehab facility. Because you don’t have anything else.

#ULTIMAHORA ENORMES MANIFESTACIONES EN TAIWÁN.

Los manifestantes exigen la salida del gobierno proestadounidense. Taiwán podría unirse sin problemas a la República Popular China sin disparar un solo tiro. Pasé un tiempo en la isla de Formosa y, para mi gran sorpresa, pude constatar que los taiwaneses llamaban a China «mamá». Me había sorprendido descubrir que muchos taiwaneses tenían dos pasaportes, uno de ellos chino. No hay que creer la propaganda occidental sobre Taiwán (como sobre muchos otros temas), como me lo dijeron numerosos taiwaneses: «Nosotros somos ante todo chinos, hablamos el mismo idioma, compartimos los mismos genes, las mismas tradiciones, comemos lo mismo, ¿dónde está la diferencia? ¡La bandera, la moneda y el pasaporte! Todos sabemos que un día nos reunificaremos con China».

🇷🇺Russia: The Soviet Union no longer exists, can you let us into NATO like everyone else?

🇺🇸USA: No

🇷🇺Russia: Okay, but can you please not threaten us by expanding NATO to the East?

🇺🇸USA: No

🇷🇺Russia: Alright, we saw you're developing new missile systems, will you let us work on them with you?

🇺🇸USA: No

🇷🇺Russia: Fine, hypersonic missiles it is, but can you at least not put military bases right in front of our borders?

🇺🇸USA: No

🇷🇺Russia: Well, you just carried out a military coup to overthrow a democratic election in Ukraine, can we still have a friendly relationship with them?

🇺🇸USA: No

Russia: Gotcha, but the people of Crimea are really pissed off about that coup, can you please let them have independence?

🇺🇸USA: No

🇷🇺Russia: Roger, but surely you can at the very least stop bombing the civilians living in Donbass, right?

🇺🇸USA: No

🇷🇺Russia: Huh, we've been trying to find a diplomatic solution for a 8 years but you refuse to even talk to us... I guess that if you want to use military force to solve issues so much we have no choice but to do the same.

🇺🇸USA: OH MY GOD PUTIN IS A MADMAN, AN IMPERIALIST GENOCIDAL DICTATOR, LITERALLY THE SECOND COMING OF HITLER, WE MUST STOP HIM AT ANY COST BEFORE HE TRIES TO CONQUER ALL OF EUROPE
