@ScottRCarpenter I’m from Vancouver, Canada and he is right. But it’s much worse. I wish this guy would talk about Chinas ambitions because if he knows ours he must know his

My God this guy absolutely nails it. Canada has NEVER been a sovereign nation (not in any real meaningful sense). We are a resource colony. The COL and the Crown view us as cattle. We are livestock to be milked and if we cannot be milked we will be replaced. Carney is here to do nothing more than to keep our lifeblood flowing to the vampires he serves.

@MarcNixon24 @sunlover500 Professor Jiang sums up Carney and Canada. Bluntly but honest.

@zhao_dashuai I highly question this video due to the fact this pilot would’ve known he was been locked and painted there is zero evasive maneuvers occurring and the pilot is flying dead straight so I highly question it and will untill it’s confirmed

From the last frames of the F-35 being hit by Iranian air defense.
It looks like some shrapnel got into the air intake and damaged the engine, but the airframe looked largely intact.
The important thing here is not whether a F-35 was shot down, it was the fact that Iran's air defense was able to detect, track, lock onto and shoot and damage a F-35.
This alone is a form of deterrence, forcing the US to continue using expensive standoff munitions with their non-stealth aircraft and avoid using F-35 with impunity.

@FeherTamasex2f @Rainmaker1973 You didn't watch the video carefully. It's 5.5 tons. Not 55.

@Rainmaker1973 The chinese are shameless liars, but physics laughs in their face. What they show is only possible in anime, not real life! French Leclerc tank is 50 tons, Abrams / Leopard-2 / Challenger-2 are 60+ tons. There are many videos of them crushing cars. 55 ton pipe would do the same.

@DanCollins2011 @songpinganq @CNN @FoxNews There is some discrepancy with roof several outlines that don’t match up. This is AI most likely.

Zero mentions on @cnn or @FoxNews.
More evidence they are Deep-State media designed to shape narratives. America has no free media outside of X.
U. S. AN/FPS-132 (or FP-132) early warning radar at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar was destroyed by Iran.

@MomoSiSi613 @manyapan Plants are also living things. You don't see the point of protecting endangered species.
English

@Lensbubbles @manyapan 🤕 you should review your priorities.
How can you compare flesh and blood animal/mammal/ anything blood system related; to a plant?
All that knowledge and you can't figure plants don't have the same life cycle as living organisms?
Who the F spoke about pandas I love them!

A 70-year-old farmer from Yunnan dug up a rare protected plant, of which only 100 remained in the world, carried them down the mountain, and brought them to the local market to sell.
What he dug up was the Coptis quinquesecta, a species of goldthread used as a medicinal herb which is listed as Critically Endangered. It only grows in a tiny range on the China-Vietnam border, at this single location at the reserve on the Huanglian Mountain where the farmer found them. With his one act, he nearly wiped out the entire species in the wild.
If a local reserve director hadn't come across the plant at the market, recognized it, and alerted the police, we probably would have never even known about it.
This happened in 2018, and it’s now being discussed again in a trending thread on Zhihu, particularly the question of how it could have happened. Researchers spent hours locating and documenting the plants, writing academic papers about them, yet failed to inform local villagers that this small cluster represented some of the last few dozen specimens left on the entire planet.
Zhihu user @暖暖 argues that the story signals a big problem in academic and institutional circles, where entire research teams have written extensively about the plant, yet didn't think to invest in a single roadside warning, or a campaign to let the locals know how to identify protected plants. Without fixing that system, similar incidents are likely to happen again, and have probably already happened since.
They write: "When an endangered animal is captured, people will film it, it will spread online. When a critically endangered plant is dug out and taken, perhaps only the mountain wind will know about it. Plants attract less public attention than animals, and this difference directly affects policy priorities, funding allocation, and how communities see conservation. Without emotional resonance, it's very hard to make people take protective actions."
Interesting story that quite literally shows why there should be some skepticism toward academic research that is completely out of touch with grassroots realities. It also shows that we should care more about plants, even if they’re not as cute 🌿.

@MomoSiSi613 @manyapan By your logic, it's ok to kill pandas because they are just animals? Protected species should be protected.

@recca777 @markgadala That's like Photoshop is useless because someone doesn't know how to use it properly. The tool is the disruptor, not the content.

Canada's Carney:
Canadians who purchase or lease a battery-electric or fuel-cell electric vehicle will receive up to $5,000, and up to $2,500 for plug-in hybrids priced up to $50,000.
To support the Canadian auto industry, this $50,000 cap will not apply to Canadian-made EVs or Canadian-made plug-in hybrids.
And these incentives will only apply to vehicles produced in countries with which Canada has a free trade agreement.

@brianfagioli @Rlaishram1 @JoannaStern Does GM or Ford pay assembly workers $50/hr? Genuinely like to know. That seems high for factory workers.

@Rlaishram1 @JoannaStern As long as they are assembled here by people making like $50/hour I would be ok with it.

BYD's Yangwang U8 defeating a mudslide. The red off-roader in the Tank 300 made by Great Wall Motors.
Chinese car brands are rising and dominating in all sectors and price range.
Within 15 years, many smaller legacy European car brands and all the Japanese car brands maybe except for Toyota will go under, either bought out or go out of business.

@zhao_dashuai Now you are lucky if your own apartment doesn’t fall on you after a few years. China’s downhill slide is amazing to behold.

@Remarkable6316 @nationalpost Why is that a bad thing if the CCP wants to lose money to make things cheaper for the world?
English

@nationalpost You forgot to mention that China heavily subsidizes their auto industry, so the price is cheaper because of that.

Half of the imported vehicles under the China-Canada deal are “anticipated” to be affordable EVs with an import price of less than $35,000, creating new lower-cost options for Canadians

@nationalpost Those BYD cars are creepy! We rented one in Germany a couple months ago. It nags at the driver over every little thing and if the driver yawns the car alert goes off with "driver fatigue detected". Doug Ford is right, these cars WILL spy on us! 😬😬😬

Chinese EVs are blowing the doors off brand-name competitors in the West, overtaking Tesla as global leader and failing to stop for tariffs or any other bumps in the road. Is the U.S. next? on.wsj.com/3LFIvGe

@LudBard @CheburekiMan @Harry__Faulkner What are you talking about? The Brazil factory is producing cars and Chinese workers who built the factory have gone home. Then again you don't care about jobs for Canadians.
English

@CheburekiMan @Harry__Faulkner What’s not to like? It’ll be just like Brazil a shiny new factory on paper, while the real jobs go to imported Chinese labor working under exploitative conditions. Local employment promised, foreign workforce delivered. Same script, different country.🤡🤡
