That's pretty priced. Even Song said Mao 2.0. Everyone agrees

Geezus H - Japan in 30 years of retrenchment - but everyone knew... doesn't mean it doesn't follow thru

China will suffer a much worse fate for its citizenry

Mao 2.0 wont live more than 8 years. He's morbidly obease and chinese medicine is way behind. He's already 70

I don't even know what they are thinking. Who cares

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Do you understand the mindset of the CCP cult is 100 times more entrenched and insidious versus say the Russian leadership or any other authoritarian state.
There has been a caste system installed since Deng - where sons/daughters of the revolutionaries are provided the only pathway to any type of serious leadership position.
Everyone is defined by their specific background and everyone know where everyone else stands.

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

This is shit is even more refined than the state model described in 1984 - you have no idea.
The point being, the structure is maintained regardless if Xi is at the head of it.
It's very much like North Korea.

Eastern European or Middle Eastern autocracies have nothing like this.

@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Except north korea isnt a market economy which actually prioritizes competition. Its actually quite the opposite. The thing that let the US win the cold war is that we broke up the monopolies and allowed the market to work. We didnt have the trebant we had 30 different companies. Peter Thiel wants to make us the USSR. The only way we win is if we break up thes behemoths https://www.wsj.com/articles/peter-thiel-competition-is-for-losers-1410535536

Peter Thiel: Competition Is for Losers

If you want to create and capture lasting value, look to build a monopoly, writes Peter Thiel

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Market economy - I can't...

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Do not confuse Zero rule of law with economic liberalism

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

99% of cases here are decided administratively too. We don't have rule of law either. When was the last time a monopoly admitted guilt or fault in a settlement with government

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

Stop with this trite...

Democracies are by their very nature corrupt (to an extent) - it;s a system of checks and balances - and those with more resources can tip the scale.
There isn't a state directed imbalance.

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

Humans are flawed, you me - that leads to corruption 24/7 - our system has a mechanism for self-cleansing - it's never perfect or even close but there's a system

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus

We just need a president who actually enforces the laws and takes these bastards to court. Maybe breaks some monopolies up. Would that be so bad? We used to have leaders who had balls

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

Secondarily, there are ppl who are more equipped to be rocket scientists, to be leaders or to be basketball players. Until, democrats can come to terms with this instead of woke ideology then we fall pray to teh same culture war trap that magas...

TYT Reacts To Biden 2024 Announcement

@plutus @rubecube12 @johnserwach Cenk is slimy, but is he really correct? This doesn't "leave a lane for progressives" to do anything but throw the election to the Right, IMHO.

@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @johnserwach

Yeah, I see the dilemma. I am hoping moderates come to their senses and bring forward a PeteB/Gavin Newsom.

TBTF, it's all about appeasing the black caucus and getting Clyburn's buy-in, which will be exceedingly hard.

@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @johnserwach

Just between friends, Clyburn is what you'd call an old school democratic machine created politician - think Tip O'Neil; think how do we wield power even if it's at the expense of broader Democratic interests.

@rubecube12 @plutus @ForeignSubstance

Clyburn and Biden represent the “realist” wing of the Democratic Party that Plut espouses too & yet he wants another candidate🤦🏻‍♂️

@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Plut just wants his stocks to go up. He doesn't care who is in office

@rubecube12 @plutus @ForeignSubstance

I just wish he would take more of a hard line against China🤷🏻‍♂️

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @plutus

I wish he would open up and let the supply side go to the moon

@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @plutus I don’t think Plut has that power!

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @plutus

Oh i thought you were talking about sleepy joe

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12

Manchin ? Or do you mean Smoking Joe Biden? No, he’s good! I’m more concerned about Plut these days.

The company's core loss came in at $1.27 a share for the March quarter, an improvement from the $2.75 loss a year earlier, but worse than the Capital IQ-polled consensus of $1.05. Revenue climbed to $17.92 billion from $13.99 billion, just ahead of the Street's view for $17.56 billion. The stock rose 3.1% in early trading.

When told of Kishida attack, safety chief kept eating eel

TOKYO (AP) — Japan's public safety chief has come under fire for his remark that he enjoyed eel rice so much that he kept eating after his agency informed him of Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's narrow escape from a pipe bomb attack two weeks ago.
