I personally think there’s an international cabal of (mostly American or Russian) billionaires who are funding fascism the world over.

Pretty sure it’s proven. I think Epstein has Israeli and Russian connections.

I’ve seen the narrative that even if Russia doesn’t win, it’s about changing the world order away from American hegemony. Like, what the fuck do the ordinary Russians care about the unipolar and multipolar order? And it’s not like both US and Russia will remain the as influential as before because of Trump in the US and the war in Ukraine taking its toll on Russia. Who will come out on top when the dust settles is China, and I’m sure for Russia who wants to be a top player, they wouldn’t like that.

Except the US and Poland are not trying to make excuses to attack Russia?

They had been right since Ukraine though. Nobody, except Ukraine of course, before the invasion believed the US warning because 1) invading a country that historically hates you and expecting no resistance is stupid. That’s like Britain invading Ireland again. 2) the US lied about Iraq before. I hate to say this as someone who loathe US for invading Iraq under falsified intelligence report, but this time the US intelligence is telling the truth. Broken clock is right twice a day and all that while also the US is the boy who cried wolf.

This news is the usual border movement and sabre rattling from Kremlin to compensate from the fact that they are proven to be paper tiger. All bark and no bite. It’s like Kevin Hart wanting to fight Andre the Giant because Kevin feels so insecure.

As an outsider, I kinda like him but hearing of the controversies surrounding him, it says a lot that he could be looking the other way even though he may not be directly involved.

Pedro Sanchez is a capable prime minister of the ruling Spanish Socialist Worker’s Party. Unfortunately, his party and his family members are embroiled in scandals which tarnishes his legacy. But that’s not to say that Pedro isn’t corrupt himself, he just hadn’t been directly implicated.

Huh? It was literally illegal to be gay in the 50s and 60s. Police raided gay bars. Black folks were segregated and arrested for violations. Women also didn’t have social mobility. There’s a reason that the media that came out in the 50s depicting the societal restriction on women was popular, especially The Stepford Wives.

Hey, be generous and give .ml some time to write their script at how they treat their minorities better before they respond to you!

People always have nostalgia for dictators so people vote for their progenitors. See Italy with Meloni being the granddaughter of Mussolini, and Philippines with Marcos family being back in power after twenty years of pillaging the country.

"Absolute power corrupts absolutely ", unfortunately. I heard that studies have shown the neurophysiology of a person changes the longer they are in power and influence.

I also own shares on memory manufacturers but i am flexible to sell my shares if the companies turn out to be total sleaze bags. There are plenty of other companies in East Asia regions that are killing it in the EV and AI boom that are not sleazy.

Because greed.

That’s okay. He’s got mountains of cash to waste because he’s selling billions of user data worth trillions.

And yet they will blame the left and label the left as a terror organisation.

I think even sane people would acknowledge China is pragmatic and more forward thinking, despite the politics.

In my country, the data centres are in poor areas.

I think the wafer is dominated by the Japanese. The Dutch company you are thinking of is ASML and they manufacture 90% of the precision machines that manufacture chips in the world.

It will take maybe two to three years before China could do that. The cheap Chinese RAM manufacturers are only starting their production.

I notice Grokipedia is getting put up more on search results even on duckduckgo.

And boomers wonder why Gen Z and millennials aren’t having kids.
