In 2011, a Uyghur girl in Xinjiang said her dream was to "have a good road" in an interview. In 2025, China opened the world’s longest highway tunnel (22.13 km) across a whole mountain range through 16 geofracture zones in Xinjiang. Natural obstacles are no longer a problem.

@BenjaminNorton To love the US empire is to embrace the master-slave dichotomy – as a willful slave.

Wow: Puerto Rico's pro-Trump, right-wing Governor Jenniffer González said the US military is planning an attack on Cuba as soon as next week. She also boasted of how the US empire used Puerto Rico to launch the invasion of Venezuela. She proudly said the US is in a new cold war against China, Russia, and Iran, and emphasized how the US empire uses Puerto Rico as a strategic colonial outpost. (Yes, as a pro-colonialist conservative, she is proud that her homeland is colonized by the US.)

🔴🇨🇺 #URGENTE | Gobernadora de Puerto Rico, Jennifer González, insinúa que Estados Unidos lanzará un ataque militar contra CUBA esta semana. 🗣 "TENÍAMOS UNA GUERRA HASTA LOS OTROS DÍAS CON VENEZUELA Y VAMOS A TENER UNA CON CUBA LA PRÓXIMA SEMANA". González, aliada de la administración Trump, hizo las declaraciones en una entrevista con @Moluskein publicada el pasado viernes. La gobernadora, además, celebró el papel que ha jugado Puerto Rico —y su gobierno— en los planes belicistas de EEUU en la región. ‼️ Bajo el gobierno de Jennifer González, Estados Unidos ha reactivado las bases militares en Puerto Rico y ha vuelto a utilizar a la isla como centro de ejercicios y planes para atacar a otros países latinoamericanos.

Today, as a Ukrainian-Jewish and a scholar of the Holocaust, I feel deeply ashamed. I never could have imagined that in my country — the country where the Nazis murdered 1.5 million Jews, the country of Babyn Yar, the very symbol of the Holocaust in the Soviet Union, a country that claims to be fighting for “freedom and democracy” — a Nazi collaborator and OUN leader like Andriy Melnyk would be buried with full state honors. Men under Melnyk’s leadership served in the Auxiliary police under Nazi. They hunted Jews hiding in attics, basements, forests, and barns, desperate to survive the Holocaust. They guarded ghettos and camps. They marched Jews to execution sites. And they took part in the shootings alongside the Germans. By the spring of 1943, the Holocaust in Ukraine was nearly complete. The Jewish neighbors were gone — murdered before the eyes, and often with the assistance, of Melnyk’s followers. And it was precisely then that Melnyk supported the creation of the Waffen-SS Galicia Division, whose members swore an oath to Adolf Hitler. And today, the president of my country — a man whose own relatives were murdered by the Nazis — kneels before the coffin of this Nazi collaborator. One could hardly imagine a greater humiliation for Jews. It is a humiliation for everyone who once believed that “Never Again” meant something in contemporary Ukraine — a country where militant ethnic nationalism increasingly dictates the politics of memory, and national identity.

Not-so-fun fact....According to AARP, 3.3 million retired seniors were forced to unretire and rejoin the workforce in the past few months thanks to Trump.

Lemme introduce to you 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳Vinfast "Dark Factory" - fully autonomous manufacturing and operations.

Kalau lihat kendaraan Bis di jalan itu sekilas jelek-jelek. Tapi coba cek industri semiconductor mereka. produk-produk pertahanan mereka. Canggih. Ini salah satu hasil dokumentasi sendiri waktu ikut pameran industri mereka. Mereka sudah bisa membuat Base Station 5G sendiri. Komersil? sudah dan produknya sudah dibeli beberapa operator di negara lain. Salah satu kuncinya? long term support negara pada industri RnD. Siapa sih yang tidak tahu kalau RnD itu mahal dan belum pasti untung. Makanya di tempat lain kan malas untuk bangun RnD enakan distributor hehe Coba bisa dikroscek, salah satu yang membuat RnD mereka unggul misalkan: Potongan pajaknya besaarr, kalaupun ada diberikan nilainya kecil, bahkan ada skema bebas pajakk beberapa tahun awal untuk perusahaan RnD. Di tempat lain, belum untung pajaknya sudah ada. Import barang untuk penelitian mahal dan prosedurnya bikin ampun. Oia, investasi juga disenangi disana, karena ekosistemnya sudah dibangunnn. Terakhir pas disana, Apple Samsung juga bikin pabrik, salah satu alasan yang disampaikan adalah dukungan rantai pasoknya sudah oke. “Bu tahu ngga, saya sebelum kesini membayangkan vietnam itu sawah-sawah, masih seperti desa-desa di Indonesia. Habis kegiatan hari ini, jadi sedih, ya Allah ketinggalan jauh kita..” kata saya kepada salah satu pegawai kedutaan Indonesia disana. Dalam hati tapi emang sedih banget sih. haha disambung sama salah satu Prof dari BRIN, dia dapat trip hari itu ke fasilitas Vinfast, “Yaa ampun, saya itu sudah berpikir apa yang dilakukan oleh Jepang saat saya kunjungin beberapa pekan lalu itu sudah keren, pas kunjungan hari ini, saya pengen nangis, ngga nyangka orang disini sudah sangat-sangat jauh.” kurang lebih testimony beliau 😂 Yang diatas baru beberapa, ada hal lain lagi misalkan soal konsen mereka pada pendidikan, keberpihakan konglo-nya, cara attract talent dll.. wah jadi panjang, semoga kapan-kapan

@_AC_Carpenter_ I don't understand why when a basic comparison is drawn I get a bunch of replies explaining some aspect isn't 1:1. Yeah, it's not 1:1. I'm illustrating a basic parallel, not saying it's a repeat.

The people furiously denouncing Delcy Rodríguez and the PSUV for their "betrayal of Maduro" would in another era been loudly signaling their hatred of the USSR for the MR pact. I don't know if the PSUV has rolled over—maybe they have. Whatever the case, it's not a simple story.

@RodericDay Not saying it's being defended, only illustrating the material difference that make the scenarios unfit for comparison. What is rational in letting the empire into a sovereign country to conduct military drills? Fuck if I know.

@_AC_Carpenter_ Literally nobody is defending this. The questions are: - what exactly is happening and who's reporting it? - why? what is the rational being given and by whom? - what exacty should be done instead?

idf signifier did a lot of tone policing, ad hominem attacks, derailing, and weird racial baiting, then cried about how the debate wasn't grounded in material reality. 😭 very unserious individual 🫠
