Miscellaneous News

I'm also old enough to remember when Western historians tried to claim that Chinese statues were influenced by Greek sculptures and that supposedly Qin ShiHuang was a blonde haired, blue eyed Aryan. Oh and how can we forget when anglo historians published in their broadsheets, how supposedly the idea of 'China' was a recent thing and that there was never such a thing as China.
Supposedly, this is what a billion dollars gets you in anti China propaganda funding.

It's a good thing that the complaints come from the top 1% or top 0.3% of China, especially if they are from the finance sector.

Paying ridiculous above market salaries started off as a tax evasion/nepotism advancement mechanism for the ultra wealthy, but had actually evolved to also become a selection and grooming technique used by the ultra wealthy to achieve state capture in the west.

The practice goes something along the lines of creating some extremely high paying posts that have a vast number of suitable candidates. This is the above market aspect where the individuals earning these megabucks salaries could not possibly get anywhere close to the same compensation anywhere else. This is fundamentally different from people getting paid megabucks because of their own skills/capabilities, for example like world class professional athletes or award winning scientists/inventors etc.

The very act of paying so vastly above market rates creates an equally vast power imbalance where the boss can ask the employee to do basically anything. If the employee doesn’t like that then they can leave and there are literally a million other candidates ready and able to step in to take their place.

The true value of this power dynamic isn’t that a boss can lord it over his underlyings, but that it can be used to influence people in highly powerful and influential positions of power.

This is how legalised corruption and state capture works in the west. Government officials make decisions to benefit the ultra wealthy, and what do you know, those officials’ offspring gets selected to go into some of these megabucks paying positions in the companies of the ultra wealth individuals who just make ludicrous amounts of money from those government decisions.

Once so employed, the offspring of the government officials will then get assigned to work on lucrative government contracts, and basically becomes hostages for the company, which can now go over budget and not deliver on time to milk the taxpayer for many times the value of the original contract. If the government were to find the company at fault, then the offspring of the government officials will also be found at fault and fired from their once-in-a-lifetime dream job, so is it any wonder the government always gets taken for a ride by these companies and never imposes any consequences on them?

Beijing saw how these Trojan horse jobs were used to thoroughly comprise the west, which was is why it is nipping this poisonous weed in the bud before it can take root too deeply.

Who is worse?? Jai Hinds or Zionists??

Not sure what the context but Israelis can get things done in one manner or another. The reason we joke at Indian nationalist is they often boast about things they can never get done.

On the contrary, on purpose or not, hindutva cloak themselves in incompetence so their abuses are ignored.

Israel wants greater Israel ruled middle east, India to some extent already realized Akhand Bharat over the subcontinent. They successfully annexed Sikkim, Goa and have hollowed out Bhutan, Bangladesh. Nepal is on economic life support due to endless Indian attempts to control and bully.

Whereas the hope of mainly local forces restoring Palestine is still possible, the hope of de-hindutvazation and freeing the many nations imprisoned inside India is effectively impossible without direct and bloody long term intervention.

India is also a greater security risk as well. China needs not fear an Israeli WMD attack, as they barely can reach all of Iran and there will be far advance warning if Israel intended to acquire long range strike capability. India has however already acquired basic ICBM technology that can reach Beijing, even if they almost certainly do not have credible deterrent power.

Hindus distract you with videos of them eating feces or temples filled with rats, while you're laughing at it, they are systematically murdering and raping on a scale even Israel hasn't achieved. The non hindu peoples of kashmir or northeastern India don't even have guns and FPVs like Hamas.

For me the question of India is in need of even greater attention than the issue with Israel. Especially because they're on the verge of credible nuclear weapons. Imagine a giant Israel with MAD capability, bordering China.

Old enough? Christopher Beckwith just claimed it again in his 2022 book The Scythian Empires. He even threw in Zhao this time along with Qin. Pretty soon all ancient Chinese states will have been founded by Indo-Europeans according to Western propaganda. Poor Koreans and Indians, out done by their Western masters once again.

Big fireworks going down in Lebanon tonight.

TikTok deletes Sputnik accounts​

Video-sharing platform TikTok has deleted the accounts of several branches of Sputnik media network. The crackdown came days after the US announced new sanctions targeting several Russian outlets, including RT.

On Saturday morning, the accounts of Sputnik Serbia, Sputnik Afrique, Sputnik Africa, Sputnik International, Sputnik Brasil, Sputnik Mundo and Sputnik Indonesia became inaccessible. TikTok has not yet commented on the development.

Sputnik Serbia has shared an image showing a query saying it could not find the account, adding that its page has also been blocked on Facebook, but remains operational on X.

Tiktok, a Chinese company is being more anti-Russian than an American company like X. actually it's probably exactly because they are a Chinese company that they feel they have to suck up to the US establishment harder than US companies themselves and serve the American empire for the sake of few more billions of $. these are the kinds of billionaires who are willing to sell their mothers for one extra dollar in their pocket.

How many times do people need to be reminded that Tiktok is NOT a Chinese company? It is registered in Singapore and primarily owned by American investment, that makes it a legally Singaporean company with American owner.

Besides, every business operating in a country must follow the law of that country, like it or not. It is the same reason that X, FB and Google are not operating in China. You can argue against the base of US making such law, but you can't blame Tiktok following it.

Your conclusion seems to be more intended to accuse China for the wrong than blaming US for the wrong. Why? What you are doing is the same as what US and the collective west have been doing to provoke China into a fight that isn't China's. Honestly, I think many anti-western people outside of China are equally dangerous to China as the West. These people just want use China as a shield and distraction.

but Sputnik News isn't banned in the US. It is not a legal requirement for TikTok to ban it.

This has been mentioned before but its funny how Computer Science and IT related stuff are the most popular subjects in India. Yet there's no presence of Indians who have won the real adult level competitive programming competitions.

this kind of competition has time and age constraints on students and it does not mean these people have capability of managing large organization or can conduct life long research.

Just shows what happens when you have to perform in a proper meritocratic skill based competition instead of nepotism. Meanwhile Russians and other eastern europeans are way better at this sort of stuff. If they wanna outsource so badly, they should just give it to some east european country. Far more bang for buck.

Indians have advantage of language with large diaspora in english speaking countries. much easier translate business requirements.
Eastern EU has declining population and the few too bright will be directly employed by Western firms or Universities. the more dies in Ukraine the more need for Indians in Europe. You can already see Indians are landing in Poland/Germany in larger numbers.

There is another very large number Indian students are being prepared in higher education in UAE (over 200k, think about capacity of UAE universities) and these people will find jobs in global multinationals in Gulf centric world (They are buying every thing). This demographic trend and Arab wealth is very favorable to India.
