It reminds me about how Zionists at a local college strongarmed the school to serve “Israeli salad” with a giant flag on it at every mealhall and students just don’t eat it and the school just has to throw it in the garbage all the time.

There’s plenty of sticks, like anything that supports Google TV, where you can use piracy software.

That’s the ironic part, ByteDance was developing a clone of Vine as they saw that was the future, they had developed a killer algorithm and bought another Vine clone Music.ly for cheap to rebrand as Douyin (or TikTok internationally).

Mind you, Vine made money, it’s just that Twitter refused to pay content creators, they saw people posted for free on Twitter and were looking for ways to convince people to make profit without paying. On numerous instances, groups of creators demanded to be compensated on Vine and even Periscope, or they’ll leave and Twitter told them to go fuck themselves.

Reminds me of how they shut down the incredibly successful Vine (short form video) because they figured they’d make more money with Periscope (very long form video). Despite literally nobody wanting it.

These tech bros live in a deluded bubble with no understanding on what average people want.

The worst part is that masculine/feminine energy are actually concepts from Taoism (but it’s WAY different from this weird alfalfa male stuff), and now Western liberals assume you’re one of these weirdos when you talk about the energies.

For example the Taoist concept of it says that nobody could live a happy life with only one energy (for example a father has to have feminine energy to properly show love to their children) and everyone needs to be introspective to feel what balance is best for them.

It’s crazy how much of the American tech industry are all these unprofitable endeavors being propped up by investors with no hope of profit in the near future. I feel like it is going to end with a DotCom bubble bursting but a million times worse.

I’m a sinoboo but I’m willing to play Devil’s Advocate:

1 Urban versus rural divide is still harsh. The big cities look like they live in the future but a great deal of the nation still lives in underdeveloped areas in the countryside.

2 While a lot better than it used to be, air pollution can still be rather bad.

3 Population growth is still too low.

4 Too much of the new national wealth is tied up in real estate (which is a shitty industry for the health of a nation).

5 While it’s to prevent CIA led coups, separatist movements and/or color revolutions… the security state is rather stifling and civil rights are cast aside.

6 Poor soft power projection since the arts where largely abandoned by society with the Dengist government. They lack “anime”, or “Kpop” to push their narrative into the world. Lately the CPC has been promoting more domestically produced movies but they really need to step up their game.

7 Their LGBTQ+ rights are garbage, and honestly it’s inexcusable.

Not so relevant but it reminded me of something.

I remember reading a Telegram or Signal thread where Ukrainian pilots trained to fly the F-1X planes preferred their old MiGs because they say Soviet/Russian weapons and vehicles of war are built for worst-case scenario combat (aka how actual wars of defense work) where you might have to use things mothballed in some warehouse or dirty, or amateurishly calibrated or used beyond their supposed parameters because that’s war and Moscow has to account for a scenario where they have to dig in and fight a bloody, miserable battle like Leningrad. Whereas American weapons and vehicles are made for best-case scenario combat because they’re designed for offensive war and lets be real are successful based on how well the weapons manufacturers present their offers to the DoD.

But because they simply need more planes, and obviously Russia won’t sell them new ones, they have to put on a show and suck the Americans dick for the F-16s because they don’t have much better options.
