The owners relocated to Singapore which should’ve clued us in on the treacherous nature of the team.


The trumpian dynasty may be strangled in the cradle according to American mouthpiece Curtis yarvin.
I suppose trump is counting on his Jewish family to save him.
As a follow up, I believe Trump having learnt from his first term and in the wilderness years, has discovered that power comes from the barrel of a gun and that he needs his own SA

What retarded survey used these arbitrary groupings. Why the survey didn't split it by individual countries?
There is such a survey, although the source is questionable given possible NED funding. However, I don't think it's that inaccurate. If you meet a lot of Iranians even excluding the diaspora, it becomes obvious that the population is still more pro-Western than either the populations of Russia or China ever have been even during the 2000s, with high Sinophobia for reasons that aren't immediately clear. It's impossible to conduct a rigorous telephone/in-person survey given the security situation.

I'm not sure if you can get the info even if you read the article. BTW, it's a good thing that China's auto market is so competitive.

False equivalency of the day: reducing the waste of food = rationing food

They rather dump it instead of giving it away, sometimes going as far as pouring bleach on them.

Meta/ Facebook has bought Manus AI which pisses me off because I use Manus extensively for work and there’s no reason Faceberg needs another avenue into user privacy besides WhatsApp and messenger. Not to mention the idiot Chinese so researchers of manus who treacherously moved to Singapore and facilitated the sale to Meta, fresh from their own failure with Llama.


i didn’t even know this retard was associated with Manus until just now. I will be canceling my membership when it comes due.
Nah, their technology was pretty much non-functional in China, they rely too much in US models instead of training their own, that was one the reason why they move to Singapore, their tech was novel at time but quickly other US and Chinese companies catch with them pretty quickly. What I think they did was to cash out before the AI bubble pops, they sold their company at an overvalued price.

You're spreading misinformation. This is from 2024. Obviously Iranian society was torn between turning east or west. And China and Russia have been very big on verbal support but don't really want to support Iran against the west. Chinese investment disappeared after trump's maximum pressure campaign. So what's the point of having a strong relationship with China or Russia if they are always going to choose the US market over the Iranian market? The only way to receive Chinese investment is to be a us ally! Meanwhile getting on better terms with the west in 2015 caused an economic boom. Given that background, I'm surprised you don't get more people who want to abandon the whole struggle and just join the west

But everything changed with the war in 2025. The aim of the attack was to install the old regime and the people rejected foreign intervention. The voices calling for engagement with the west have been silenced. Iran is now much more leaning east than west as a result of the war. It helps that both Russia and China are now in a conflict with the west that they weren't when the jcpoa broke down. If both sides work together, they can achieve a very good relationship.

But I'm still not sure if China actually wants a strong relationship with Iran or if China only cares about selling goods to bigger markets. And if China isn't signalling interest in a strong relationship with Iran, why would Iranian people replying to a survey say that it would be good for them to have a strong relationship with China? Because it looks like the way to get a strong relationship with China is to first get US troops on your soil


Every time there's a minor strike or protest in Iran it's blown out of proportion as if it's another revolution. There were significant cost of living protests in the UK but western media don't talk about it. Don't be a victim of radical Israeli propaganda
Isarel spend a lot of effort on anti-Iran propaganda but sometime you just need to have some common sense.

There was some uproar some time ago because the US and Israel voted against enshrining food as a human right; many Americans made claims along the lines of "it doesn't matter if food is a human right if there's not enough food to go around."

Interestingly enough, the US produces enough food waste to feed most of Africa. Almost all of it is the result of farmers discarding "ugly" produce, grocery stores discarding unsold or "expired" produce, and common consumers discarding food that they have already purchased.

Direct quote form the Reddit forum:

this org uses chain surveys to get results; basically participants send the survey to other people they know. very obviously is not scientific and would get a biased result. its also funded by the US government through the national endowment of democracy
