Its because they're pig headed chauvinists with brains poisoned by cheap ground beef and white supremacy , in my opinion. You saw this with the Iran stuff recently too. I have no doubt that the CIA has its grubby little hands in the pot but the protests against the morality police were very real and not solely a project of CIA agitation.

CIA is hollowed out and their COINTEL projects have been offloaded to unpaid volunteers. US State department abandoned it's power when it started clawing back the fake Havana Syndrome benefits. Truly the copper has been stripped out of the walls.

Its because they're pig headed chauvinists with brains poisoned by cheap ground beef and white supremacy , in my opinion. not american, not white. im not saying that there wasn't unrest and dissatisfaction with current zero-COVID policies, but from everything i saw, characterising what happened as mass uprisings is just parroting the same western bullshit. like, taking real dissatisfaction and stoking it into a mass action is what they do. if there's a history of it and i see dodgy poo poo like protestors speaking the wrong language, misspelled signs, screenshots of bbc journalists in coordinating protests right near where US embassies used to be, i don't think it's a stretch to assume it's NED bullshit

Lostconfused posted:(from t.me/it_vatnik/1141, via tgsa) my read of this as a know-nothing layman is that they're developing an "original" lithographic process that would allow them to produce chips in that 28nm range in a way that doesn't require them to have access to the current EUV method used by the Dutch ASML company, since sanctions prevent them from getting that hardware. Instead of trying to get that hardware by other means, or developing a copy of that hardware, they're taking a different approach entirely. 28nm lithography was current in ~2014, so if they manage to start churning those out in 2030, that would put them ~16 years behind AFAIK China is already capable of producing chips in this range, and is supposedly closing in on 7nm capability, so this would be more of an additional/alternate path for them rather than a primary one as a final note, it should again be noted that having top-tier lithography is not necessarily as important as one might expect, because a lot of chips outside of contemporary computer and smartphone parts use fairly large/old lithographic processes. That you can produce them at all is important, but you don't need 7nm to supply your 80s-era missiles and vehicles and consumer appliances with chips.

This is scientific malpractice and the Chinese authorities know it I'm increasingly convinced anti-china propaganda is also constructed intentionally to drive anyone with china sympathies insane

Turkish leftists are more likely to call out the cia and the nato by name (why don’t they put an article before nato anyway? I thought the nato loves articles ). Ground beef is really, really loving expensive.

The CIA does take advantage of every bit of dissent that it can in target nations whenever the opportunity rears its head It just doesn't always start the dissent, nor is the dissent always an illegitimate complaint just because the CIA is involved in it

Ardennes posted:The death rate of Omicron BA.2 has dropped off a lot, admittedly there hasn’t been a population as unaffected as China at this point but the death rate dropped significantly in relative terms in the rest of the world. There are going to be deaths. COVID isn't going away because for three years almost every Western nation in the world has insisted it wasn't a problem that couldn't be solved in just three weeks and then, after that, if you just got your shots the brain damage and cardiopulmonary aftereffects are just the mark of a successful approach

I am still of the opinion that the CIA is so thoroughly rotted through that it can't actually take advantage of any dissent anymore unless they get lucky like they did with Ukraine, and most of that may have just been European governments putting pressure on things rather than the US. See: the repeated and extremely embarrassing failed coup attempts in Latin America over the past 5 years where the coups either failed spectacularly or blew themselves apart almost immediately e: like remember when the CIA got all of their agents in China killed twice in ten years because they were having them go to cia.gov to submit info Grapplejack has issued a correction as of 08:36 on Dec 31, 2022 |

I bet those morons who fled "ccp lockdowns" by going through the roughest and most dangerous terrain in central America a week before everything was dropped sure feel stupid and not like they were on a b-reel reality TV show huh

Well, color revolution only works in western/Christian civilization countries. When you try to do it in a different civilization region, it doesn't really work but nobody told the Democrats. I am sure the CIA knows about it, but they just want the funding.

I think they were involved in some way but didn’t really commit and were more like “lol let’s see what they’re going to do and give them a little support without getting too mixed up.” however I don’t actually know.

Leadership cults and totalitarian media control can at times enable breathtakingly destructive policies, and it is hard to think of a policy more unhinged than suddenly exposing a “naive” population with inadequate vaccination to mass infection in mid-winter, and just before the great internal migration of Chinese New Year. good thing Liberal Democracies wouldn't do anything so monstrous

Back in China for the first time in nearly three years. It’s a weird feeling when all the controls, testing and quarantine stuff is technically in place but nobody gives a poo poo since they know it will all go away in a week or so. We had to spend one night in a hotel to confirm that we tested negative and then we were allowed to go wherever.
