  • Still better than being indebted to Dollars, considering the interest rates and the imposition of austerity measures by the IMF imo

  • Bolivia Is Now Using China’s Yuan for Trade, Challenging Global Dominance of U.S. Dollar - TIME

    https://archive.md/3JG1G

  • You're in the wrong thread. This one is about Bolivia

  • Yeah no shit, If no genocide is going on obv you won't have sufficient evidence

  • That article is non-materialist and was a pain to read as it was super bare In Information.

    Nowhere in the article is an analysis why Khan is a fascist. The most interesting part was a one liner allegation that he got support form the wealthy but it wasn't expanded on. At the very end of this drivel the spiciest thing was that he seems to be misogynist (does that make him a fascist?)

    And this one made him looked based:

    Khan’s surging popularity is not all good news. He wants to rule with an iron fist and fantasises about a China-style political system. As prime minister, during a state visit to Beijing he said that in “western democracies, it is difficult to bring change as you are bound by rules and regulations. Democracies of today plan only for the next five years. The Chinese Communist Party achieved better without democracy.”

  • I never mentioned Ninestar

    Sorry, I assumed the "they" in your comment on the article posted by OP referred to Ninestar, as the article was about that firm

  • Having said that, short of any comprehensive study looking at BYD EV fires, it is difficult to conclude from the anecdotal reports that the company’s EVs have a higher likelihood to catch fire.

    Tesla fanboys cope

    EVs are the future, just need to deal with the low quality crap being sold.

    Actually public transport is the way to go

  • The article: https://archive.md/yQezP

    ASML Holding NV canceled shipments of some of its machines to China at the request of US President Joe Biden’s administration, weeks before export bans on the high-end chipmaking equipment came into effect, people familiar with the matter said.

    When the invisible hand of the market is not giving handjobs to the right people

    Wennink has publicly opposed the measures and warned they might encourage China to develop competing technology. “The more you put them under pressure, the more likely it is that they will double up their efforts,” he said last year in an interview with Bloomberg News.

  • yeah you do, you dismiss the US/Biden increase in oil production as a necessary short-term evil, but dont do so for China. ie you hold other goverments to higher standards than your own

  • nuanced and realistic is when you hold other gvmts to higher standards than your own. Got it.

    While I agree with the amount of CO2 being the meaningful statistic, I see China doing a lot more in that regard than the US.

    • Per Capita CO2: China is way lower
    • Produces and deploys renewables on an unprecedented scale
    • Public transport is taken serious

    When the US/West exported it's treat production to China pointing the finger to the total CO2 output is just chauvinist

  • This type of comment reads really chauvinist, especially when you're defending Biden for increasing oil production in the other thread

  • WHEN they’ve got the imbalance in-their-favor enough, they will gut & smash India: that is their plan.

    Source: it came to me in a dream once

    Modi’s relying on Russia, China’s economic-vassal-state, for protection against China, hands India to China, strategically.

    India and the US have deep military ties and a strategic partnerships. India is buying Russian oil because it's heavily discounted.

    See it for what it is: now is only a “location in time”, during the slippery-slope ( low steepness, after 1 or 2 more world-process Punctuations, the slope will be STEEP! ) time before global-TANTRUM/POGROM that #ClimatePunctuation, combined with political-tantrum, including “populist” dictatorships, combined with religious-tantrum, combined with food-web collapse, combined with an increasing-fraction-of-humankind becoming refugee…

    What no theory does to a mfer

  • I am curious to see what happens.

    Learn history and economics and you won't need to be curious

    He's devaluing the currency (apparently dollarizing it was even too radical for his supporters) and applying shock therapy and thus building an export Economy and seeling off state assets for pennies to foreign multinationals.

    Basically recreating 90s Russia which worked out pretty good as we all know
