  • I guess it’s fortunate that the world doesn’t draw borders according to where Nancy Pelosi decides to go. Can’t help but notice that all this talk of “the right to self government” is always appended to paragraphs firmly talking about what the US wants and the US does.

    Yeah, we know the US government is a hypocritical liar. We know they have been putting up their puppets to talk about independence now that it’s become clear China won’t go the way of the USSR. The fact is, both parties stick to the one china principle, and if it weren’t for the US, Taiwan would have been as integrated with the PRC as Guangzhou or Shenzhen. Ask Chiang Kai Shek and the CIA what they thought of the Taiwanese people’s right to self government in the 60s.


  • It is recognized as a part of China by almost every country on earth including the US (despite its endless shit stirring on all fronts, all they’re good for nowadays). The ROC, by the way, also claims mainland China and itself to be the same territory, and their constitution reflects that too, what they disagree on is whether they’re the legitimate government of all of China or the PRC is.

    If you think Taiwan is the legitimate government of all of China you need to come back to the real world from wherever the state department lured you into.







  • With the state of western software development and how ingrained the US and Israeli security state seems to be there, plus how much China seems to be prioritizing top-to-bottom self-sufficiency in tech, I wouldn’t be surprised if a Chinese fork that welcomes Russian contributors becomes a force unto itself.

    An ecosystem where India, Russia, and China based coders take leadership is an ecosystem that has a bigger chance for mass adoption in the biggest manufacturing economies in the world.

    “MEDIA PERSONALITIES LIKE” is a pretty important part of that sentence that you shortened to sound conspiratorial. It would do everyone well to read the entire article rather than look at the shortest quote for a gotcha.

    In April, he won the prestigious White House Press Correspondents’ Award “for overall excellence in White House coverage”

    That’s like the fourth paragraph. So, yes, even if you don’t know him, that’s very influential. The article also goes over plenty of examples across Meta, CNN, NYT, Google and many others.
