Dear BiBi:

There is so much blatant Anti-Semitism on the Chinese internet. I’ve written to President Xi so that they can all be deported to a location of your liking so you can dispense proper justice!

Throw these anti-semite into camps!

The Chinese populace is obviously afflicted by an extremely serious and severe case of societywide anti-semitism™! This is very alarming! :mad:

The remedy typically recommended by many leading Jewish experts for societywide anti-semitism™, whatever that actually means, assuming it means anything at all, is: diversity™.

Mandatory diversity™ is how you teach societies to be tolerant and to do better. It's been proven to work in Western countries, including

, with negligible side effects. "Promise!" ;)

This is probably why some of our chosen friends, as well as leading "Western public intellectuals" have been selflessly and altruistically proposing to resettle ~2 million Palestinians in China . . . :)

in a recent onstage discussion. "We need to unify all the national data, put it into a database where it’s easily consumable by the AI model, and then ask whatever question you like."


I find delicious irony in noting that the original Oracle at Delphi has been found to have been “inspired” by mephitic vapours arising from the depths. The Oracle proper would inhale the vapours and hallucinate, thus giving rise to the equivocal prognostications for which the institution was famous.

Perhaps it is no coincidence that our modern day prophet, the supposedly all-knowing AI, also has a fundamental propensity to ‘hallucinate’.

Billion Indians have no spending money - report​

India is home to 1.4 billion people but around a billion lack money to spend on any discretionary goods or services, a

estimates.
The country's consuming class, effectively the potential market for start-ups or business owners, is only about as big as Mexico, 130-140 million people, according to the report from Blume Ventures, a venture capital firm.
Another 300 million are "emerging" or "aspirant" consumers but they are reluctant spenders who have only just begun to open their purse strings, as click-of-a-button digital payments make it easy to transact.
What is more, the consuming class in Asia's third largest economy is not "widening" as much as it is "deepening", according to the report. That basically means India's wealthy population is not really growing in numbers, even though those who are already rich are getting even wealthier.
All of this is shaping the country's consumer market in distinct ways, particularly accelerating the trend of "premiumisation" where brands drive growth by doubling down on expensive, upgraded products catering to the wealthy, rather than focusing on mass-market offerings.
This is evident in zooming sales of ultra-luxury gated housing and premium phones, even as their lower-end variants struggle. Affordable homes now constitute just 18% of India's overall market compared with 40% five years ago. Branded goods are also capturing a bigger share of the market. And the "experience economy" is booming, with expensive tickets for concerts by international artists like Coldplay and Ed Sheeran selling like hot cakes.
Companies that have adapted to these shifts have thrived, Sajith Pai, one of the report's authors, told the BBC. "Those who are too focused at the mass end or have a product mix that doesn't have exposure to the premium end have lost market share."
The report's findings bolster the long-held view that India's post-pandemic recovery has been K-shaped - where the rich have got richer, while the poor have lost purchasing power.
In fact, this has been a long-term structural trend that began even before the pandemic. India has been getting increasingly more unequal, with the top 10% of Indians now holding 57.7% of national income compared with 34% in 1990. The bottom half have seen their share of national income fall from 22.2% to 15%.

Interesting that BBC didn't change its editorial stance on India after getting its USAID and NED funds cut ;)

Not sure about Australia where the Twitter OP is supposedly from, but in the US -- where substance abuse is the no. 1 cause of homelessness -- it can be lucrative to operate in-patient drug rehab facilities out of single family homes.

So your idea could actually work! ;)

Just for that post, they should start moving homeless people into this guy's house.

Don't slander Comrade Trump!

We are making history here. First European slave country in modern times! Winning bigly!

Every move he makes is as majestic as the sun, every executive order he signs lets rivers of ink fly through the world. Every sneeze of his, produces tremendous wind energy for eons

One word, one order, and we got our first slave state. Tremendous!

Onwards Mr. President, onwards!
Promises made, promises kept. He said it and he kept his word:
"And you'll say, 'Please, please. It's too much winning. We can't take it anymore. Mr. President, it's too much.' "

Slava Ukraine!
Ukranie was historically where the word for “slave” came from.


i foresee Soviet Russia for you, America. Now keep pushing money into that military industrial complex, yeah!

Canadians got really mad after Elon Musk posted this. I too can think of several other territories in China's neighbourhood which aren't real countries.

This Russian girl married to a Chinese makes a joke on XHS about how she is really Chinese since Russians are one of China's 56th officially recognized minorities.

The PRC's government minority policies was strongly influenced by the soviet one, which caused a fair share of problems, especially during the latter years of the USSR. The interesting thing is that China also has a lot of officially recognized ethnic minorities which are the dominant ethnic group in China's neighbouring countries e.g., Korean, Russian, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Vietnam. This means that if one day China decides ;)
