gradenko_2000 posted:Yeah basically the US used chemical and biological warfare in Korea, then POWs testified to it, the US denied it and accused the Soviets of having brainwashed these troops into bearing false witness, and then convinced themselves that if the Soviets could brainwash people into lying about US activities in Korea, that they should be able to do that too, and MKULTRA was part of those programs to replicate this alleged Soviet brainwashing sounds like CIA brainwashed themselves

Palladium posted:It owns Americans would believe anything that doesn't hold up under casual scrutiny, doubly so when it comes to China remember when a bunch of news orgs said China was harvesting Uyghur organs and had to reluctantly add 'now mind you we have no PROOF of this but wouldn't that be just so fuckin twisted?', and then it became 'China harvests Uyghur HAIR to make wigs' that had to quietly change to 'actually that label we used just said these wigs are produced in Uyghur territories'? It's just like North Korea poo poo, with news orgs eagerly explaining how Kim had his uncle blown up with an AA gun, then the next day going 'well it seems he's here in a picture at a concert'

There's also the Bloomberg spychip story that doesn't explain how some random spychip with PCB traces isn't gonna be caught by the thousands of EE engineers in an industry obsessed with weeding out unneeded components.

quote:Arrogance and a hidden superiority complex are the daily bread when approaching an unknown civilization, with a radically different evolution, which cannot be judged with the usual American or European parameters without trying to open the focus. There is nothing hidden about [the chauvinism], and it's often reframed in the opposite direction as an inferiority complex.

It's impossible to hide tens or hundreds of millions of transistors and their interconnects on any chip without anybody working on it noticing. It's so much easier for Chinese spies to just bribe some disgruntled American worker to get what they want.

indigi posted:how was he a governor in one country and president in another (presumably not concurrently, but still), that’s cool he was deposed as president of georgia after big protests, kidna like a reverse of the color revolution that brought him to power. he fled georgia and was stripped of his citizenship, then after the euromaidan crisis, probably to troll russia somehow, he was given ukrainian citizenship and appointed odesa goveror by then-president poroshekno... but he later fell out with poroshenko, was fired, and had his ukrainian citizenship stripped, leaving him stateless again. the new ukrainian president gave him ukrainian citizenship again though. quite a tumultuous career! he speaks very good english though so he is beloved by western journalists and nato adjacent people.

That came up in the games thread.Anime Schoolgirl posted:this doesn't seem to be actually legally binding and is apparently an advisory on "this is what a bunch of crusty old officials are annoyed by and what they think you should do" else they'd have already chopped off 15% of their entertainment industry overnight

The key issue is that pieces like these get picked up the Western press as a way to scaremonger attention away from bigger and more important issues. https://www.scmp.com/tech/policy/article/3150622/new-game-approvals-dry-china-internal-memo-shows-developers-now-have
