yeah a totally unbiased organization 😂

What I've got are basic facts of the situation.

Accusations originate entirely from the west while Muslim majority countries support China, and their leaders have visited Xinjiang many times.

• https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/on-eid-xinjiang-imams-defend-china-against-u-s-criticism-1.5425967
• https://www.bolnews.com/latest/2023/07/pak-religious-leaders-nurture-bonds-of-cooperation-with-xinjiang/
• https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/w/islamic-envoys-say-china-is-protecting-minorities-in-xinjiang-after-five-day-visit

Here's an account from a Pakistani journalist who has been all over Xinjiang (which borders Pakistan) claims that western media reports on "atrocities" are lies. https://dailytimes.com.pk/723317/exposing-the-occidents-baseless-lies-about-xinjiang/

Also notable that whenever western media actually deigns to visit Xinjiang, which is not often, they're unable to produce support for any of their claims of mass imprisonment and oppression, so they opt for insinuations instead https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-lifestyle-china-health-travel-7a6967f335f97ca868cc618ea84b98b9

Meanwhile, there is a political angle around the narrative around Xinjiang. For example, here's George Bush's chief of staff openly saying that US wants to destabilize the region, and NED recently admitting to funding Uyghur separatism for the past 16 years on their own official Twitter page. An ex-CIA operative details US operations radicalizing and training terrorists in the region in this book. Here's an excerpt:

US has been stoking terrorism in the region while they've been running a propaganda campaign against China in the west. In fact, US even classified Uyghur separatists as a terrorist group at one point https://www.mintpressnews.com/us-was-at-war-uyghur-terrorists-now-claims-etim-doesnt-exist/276916/

Now, let's look at what's actually happening with renewables and energy transition in China.

Emissions in China have now entered structural decline

• https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-chinas-emissions-set-to-fall-in-2024-after-record-growth-in-clean-energy/

Clean energy was top driver of China’s economic growth in 2023 https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-clean-energy-was-top-driver-of-chinas-economic-growth-in-2023/

China has an actual plan for phasing out fossil fuel usage that they are implementing, short term use of coal is in line with that plan, pretending that this is some gotcha is either ignorant or dishonest https://www.visualcapitalist.com/chinas-energy-transition-in-5-charts/

Here's a study showing that coal use in China is in line with their transition plan https://www.carbonbrief.org/chinas-2060-climate-pledge-is-largely-consistent-with-1-5c-goal-study-finds

I love how you lot just peddle the same shit that's been debunked to death, really gotta get some new material

🙄

They sure are given that their standard of living keeps getting better each and every year. Sadly same can't be said for people living under western regimes.

It's totally Bond villain quote level shit.

To be fair, he didn't say that at least some people at the table wouldn't be eaten, it's just that if you're not at the table you're definitely getting eaten.

guy should do an AMA on what it's like to live a life with a single brain cell.

Exactly the whole narrative is nonsense, and EU would've probably been fine if they continued having good relations with Russia and China giving them access to cheap energy and manufacturing. Now, things aren't looking so hot.

I imagine she has a tenure, so it's likely pretty hard to fire her. There's nothing illegal about travelling to Russia at the end of the day. I'm also expecting that the hysteria will start dying down as the war winds up.

I don't think they will sanction him in US because he's too much of a celebrity at this point, and this would raise a lot of questions with the public. Specifically, the west keeps insisting that it's not at war with Russia. And if that's the case, then it's going to be a bit difficult to explain why a journalist going to Russia to interview the president is being sanctioned. Carlson would obviously jump on that too, since it plays into his narrative.

So far, all the controversy they created over this seems to just act as free promotion for the interview. Cynically, you could almost think US wanted it to happen and is now promoting it in a backhanded way. If US is trying to get out of the war, this will likely go a long way shifting public opinion in that direction. The dems can blame the republicans for ending funding for the war, and extricate themselves from the whole thing.

Dr. Desai will likely get pressure in Canada over going to Sochi, hoping it's not going to end up being too much hassle for her.

I mean whether they do it consciously or not, they demand holding others to a standard they don't hold themselves to. No amount of rationalizing on their part changes this fact.

💯

It's absolutely hilarious to see how quickly libs are abandoning all their supposed values as soon as they feel that their ideology is under threat.

indeed

Same, I've been thinking a lot about perverse incentives created by the need for constant growth. The article does such a great job illustrating how capitalism creates increasingly unusable products fuelled by phenomenal waste of resources.

What people should be doing is organizing the same way labour has organized at the start of the 20th century. Unionizing, building mutual support networks, educating other workers, and building political power from the ground up. The reason revolutions happen is precisely because people do nothing until it gets to the point where there are no other options left.

We will continue to post and upvote Chinese state media, if this offends you then feel free to crawl back to reddit where you belong.

Unless you live in a handful of countries that have their own independent media, you're still consuming western sludge which is shaping your view of the world.

Ah yes, IMF and Financial Times, two organizations notoriously famous for spreading Russian propaganda. The levels of delusion within the Western world are reaching new heights as mainstream media begins to acknowledge the truth behind the situation at hand. It's truly a comical spectacle, with laughter being the only appropriate response. 😂
