The truth about Xinjiang Uyghurs in China. 🇨🇳 youtu.be/mwYEWQ231xg

The 1954 Salk polio vaccine trial involved over 1.8 million children. 220,000 received a saline placebo. It demonstrated the vaccine’s effectiveness against polio. RFK Jr says "none of the childhood vaccines have been tested against placebo" Doesn't he know? Or is he a liar?

"Veteran's Against Fascism," including disabled veterans, were arrested inside of the Capitol building today as they staged a protest against Trump's war in Iran. This is Trump's America.

Call me crazy, but maybe two men who fathered 17 children with 6 different women shouldn’t be lecturing us about family values.

Israel did it in 1948, 56 Israel did it in 1967 Israel did it in 1982 Israel did it in 2002 Israel did it in 2008 Israel did it in 2014 Israel did it in 2021 Israel did it in 2024 Israel is doing it in 2026 78 years of genocide.

Omg, well said 🥹🥹🥹 Xinjiang ❤️ Taiwan

Japan’s postwar “pacifism” was never proof of innocence. It was what remained of a defeated empire after its teeth had been pulled out. A state that invaded much of Asia, massacred tens of millions, and brutalized an entire region did not suddenly become morally pure after 1945. It was contained. Now the leash is loosening, and even the BBC admits that its “mindset has been shifting gradually.” That does not show a “peaceful nation” changing. It shows that its fascist instinct never disappeared.

Xinhua has generally been more accurate than most other newswires, aggregators, and channels—perhaps because they actually try to report Iranian statements faithfully, without adding their own half-baked and often incorrect interpretations. It may also be because they don’t have a vested interest in it.

@isaacstonefish You may not like to hear this but who needs western aligned journalism (lies) when hundreds of thousands of tourists simply film everything and tell the truth?

You may not like to hear this, but there is a correlation between improving views of China globally and Beijing’s expulsion and harassment of foreign journalists. The Chinese Communist Party has successfully shaped the portrayal of China globally, by severely restricting journalists ability to analyze and report on the country. The result? Higher favoribility ratings of Xi Jinping and China than Trump and the United States, and growing favoribility rates of China in the United States. This is not to downplay the clear, Trumpian reasons the U.S. has lost global luster — rather, it’s to express consternation and concern of entities around the world for believing China to be a responsible global actor. fccchina.org/2026/04/20/fcc…

Taiwan influencer"馆长": Taiwan is part of China. Being in Taiwan means standing on Chinese soil. Never forget your roots —we are Chinese. If you refuse to call yourself Chinese, don't keep a Chinese surname. Change your name to "Sanae Takaichi" instead.

@KelRo736 😂

Isn't that just Elon's regular Resting Doos face?

To call the Japanese Nazis would indeed be inaccurate — because what the Japanese fascists did during World War II was "so ghastly in fact that it made the Auschwitz gas chamber appear humane".

@Allya10X @Natie2Natie I will visit the Nanjing Museum and the Unit 731 Memorial. I already admire and respect China and its people so much that going to these places will further radicalize me. 我爱中国 🇨🇳

@planet_holmes @Natie2Natie I went to the Nanjing Museum years ago as a uni student. I was traumatized for months, even years. Just looking at those photos again would bring me to tears. The barbarism was real. We must never forget.

🇹🇼 Wushe, Taiwan — 1931 The Second Musha Incident. After the 1930 uprising, Japan turned Seediq against Seediq. Allied tribes hunted down rebels. Men and boys over 15 were beheaded. Children were not spared. The world sees Japan's peace. We remember their colonial brutality.🦋

The CPC is made up of the people of China and governs for the people of China. CPC members come from every rung of Chinese society, representing every ethnicity and cultural background in China, and the CPC constantly takes input from the public on both local and national issues, and responds to those issues in a speedy and effective manner. Democracy means a system that is ruled by the people and for the people, and China is just that.

Palantir were kind enough to sum up its hideous ideology in 22 points. And I have taken the liberty of annotating each one of them. Here is my interpretation of all 22 of them (preserving the original numbering - for the original see their tweet below): 1. Silicon Valley owes an immeasurable debt to the ruling class who bailed out the criminal bankers that wrecked the livelihood of the majority of Americans. The engineering elite of Silicon Valley will defend that ruling class to the death (literally!), in the name of the majority of Americans whom they treat with contempt – i.e., like cattle that have lost their market value. 2. Palantir is eyeing the Apple Store, salivating over the prospect of creating its own technofeudal estate. Time to replace the iPhone with another device that dissolves what is left of people’s privacy. 3. Palantir shall give nothing away for free. It cares uniquely over its own growth which it pursues by sowing fear so that it can sell a fake sense of security. 4. Glory to brute force! Ethics is for suckers. The West needs more of Palantir’s murderous software. 5. AI-powered killer robots are coming. The task is to profit magnificently by building killer robots first and ask questions later. To be able to do so, Palantir will do whatever it takes to avoid at all cost any international treaties that limit AI-driven killer robots. 6. Every poor sod (lacking the connections to avoid being thrown into the trenches with killer drones targeting them from the sky) must be drafted into the army. Forget paying soldiers a salary. All payments should be directed to Palantir, where our own people will be serving their ‘national service’ – leaving the dying to non-shareholders. 7. Palantir works overtime to equip US Marines with killer bots that take away from the US Marines whatever remnants of ethical judgment they are left with on the battlefield. American society should be rendered perfectly incapable of any debate that restricts Palantir’s capacity to get the US Military to eliminate any remaining opportunity to reject its software’s choice of targets. 8. Palantir deplores the fact that the public sector is still not totally devoid of a conscience. Public servants must be fired en masse, except some very few approved by Palantir who will receive huge salaries, paid by taxpayers. 9. Palantir thinks that Donald Trump must be beatified for throwing himself into public service. Not forgiving folks like Trump everything risks our soul, not to mention that it raises the prospect of officials that restrict Palantir’s evil project. 10. Politics needs to be AI-like, devoid of anything that can be mistaken for human empathy. Those who look to the political arena to nourish their soul and sense of self must be sent to the gulag forthwith! 11. There are some people too eager to hasten Palantir’s demise. They should rethink, or else! 12. Palantir makes no nuclear weapons but is happily developing other weapons of mass destruction. We proudly announce that we are now ready to add to nuclear Armageddon the AI-driven threat to humanity’s existence. 13. No other country in the history of the world has committed so many war crimes in the name of progress and freedom. The United States offers infinite freedom to people like Palantir’s founders to profit so handsomely by inflicting so much damage upon humanity. 14. American power has feasted on causing one war after another, one putsch after another, one avoidable financial disaster after another. Too many have forgotten or perhaps have taken for granted America’s capacity to pursue forever wars in the name of peace and democracy. 15. German and Japanese Fascism must be made great again. The denazification of Germany was an overcorrection for which Europe is now paying a heavy price. A similar and highly misplaced commitment to Japanese pacifism must also end immediately! 16. We should applaud those who attempt to monopolise everything by means of generous government contracts. Billionaires must not be satisfied merely with their billions. To become even more obscenely rich they need grand narratives that help them convince the poor to use their freedom to keep them, the billionaires, in power. And, by the way, Palantir loves Elon, especially his grand apartheid-inspired narrative. 17. Silicon Valley must be free to do in America’s cities what it did in Gaza. Many politicians across the United States have essentially shrugged when it came to granting Palantir the right to annihilate all remaining civil liberties and human rights. This must end. 18. Epstein’s syndicate should be forgotten lest lovely people like Trump and the Clintons are deterred from entering government. The public arena must be scrutiny-free unless subversives like Sanders or Mamdani enter it. 19. We love banal public figures as long as they give Palantir all the juicy contracts. We also love colourful public figures who give Palantir all the juicy contracts. 20. We need more opium for the masses, as they are not sufficiently inebriated for us to be unimpeded in the pursuit of their complete subjugation. Questioning organised superstition is dangerous and must end. 21. Time to bring back Hitler’s hierarchy of races, with Palantir’s founders and Elon at its Aryan pinnacle. The idea that it is wrong to judge someone by the colour of their skin or their ethnicity or their religion must be jettisoned. 22. Blacks, Muslims, most Asians, and of course women, are inferior untermensch. Blokes in America, and more broadly the West, have for the past half century resisted putting these subhumans in their places in the name of inclusivity. It was a mistake. Such subhumans must never be allowed in, except as servants or sex service providers – at least until we can improve our robots, in which case we won’t need them at all.

There were over 1800 famines recorded in China before 1949 There was one famine recorded in China since 1949. Guess which is the only famine you’ll ever hear liberals claim to care about? 🤨

Palantir is the OS of the Death Star. Point 14 is exactly what Palpatine would say on behalf of the Empire:- “14. American power has made possible an extraordinarily long peace.” Shocking irony from the software mouthpiece of the world’s foremost warmonger and arms dealer.

Rainy day in Beijing, and I stumbled on two little reminders that “serve the people” isn’t just a slogan here—it’s actually happening on the streets. First: these “Riders’ Stations” (骑手驿站) scattered all over the country. They’re built specifically for delivery guys, sanitation workers, and other outdoor workers. Free phone charging, hot water, microwaves to heat up lunch, AC in summer, even books to read during breaks. A proper little refuge when you’re out grinding all day. Second: metro staff handing out free raincoats to passengers during the downpour. I’ve seen it multiple times—foreign tourists often wave them off at first, thinking there’s a catch or it costs money. Nope, completely free. Just staff trying to keep everyone dry. Every country has its problems, including China. But moments like these show that the promise to look after ordinary people is being put into practice in simple, practical ways. Small gestures, big heart.

Before vaccines, babies got breastmilk, sunshine and love. And 1 in 5 of them didn't live to see their first birthday
