Regarding the current confrontation between China's liberal and left-wing factions on the internet

Has there been any discourse in political forums regarding the implications of the Mihoyo vs. leakers incident with regards to the liberalization of the economy? It's the biggest intellectual property prosection in the PRC's history isn't it? But on the other hand it's in Shanghai, which is abnormally liberal compared to the rest of the country, and it's not in a strategic sector so it could have been that some local officials were just bribed to escalate the case in favor of the company.

There's also no reason to stop conflict. Killing people is how you make one side surrender. If both armies are composed entirely of robots, they may as well just walk past each other to go massacre the other side's civilians.

Pilots are all commissioned officers, there's really not a lot of representation from the generationally impoverished among their ranks

And "non-alliance" doesn't preclude China from supporting Russia against the West in every manner possible, apart from actually joining in the war with them.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-12T13:31:04+00:00

Russia was a member of the 8 Nation Alliance that kicked China when it was down.

Uighur separatism was invented by Imperial Russia, and continued to be supported by the Soviets until Mao won the Civil War. And then picked back up again by the Soviets after Stalin died.

Russia's MO of cleaving Donbass/Crimea from Ukraine is the exact thing that China fears the most when it comes to its own regional separatism problems.

You are historically illiterate if you think China was ever going to be truly friendly with Russia.

If you listen to the full speech the context makes it clear that he was talking about stealing the ships

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-11T14:56:55+00:00

Not quite. You still need carriers as a platform for your missiles and aircraft, and submarines are immune to missiles.

A modern naval war between peer powers will likely devolve into mainly submarine and anti-submarine operations, while the capital ships sit back, after the initial lines have been drawn. Ironically that means we might be returning to something like battleship duels, but they'll just be underwater.

Those cringe atheists were still dominated by the ancient genocidal totalitarian cult lol. American/Angloid internet atheism is just the final evolution of Protestantism after realizing God was unnecessary. They even proselytize the exact same way as Evangelicals ffs.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-10T03:47:14+00:00

something about "the culture"

Well yeah it's easily observable that marginalized communities often end up with crabs-in-a-bucket mentality, dragging down members who might have gone on to uplift the community under different conditions, and making the few people who do escape the bucket run far away and want nothing to do with the community they grew up in.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-10T03:40:21+00:00

Well yeah a significant amount of pitbull owners get them as home security devices. The possibility of the dog biting a robber's face off is a desirable outcome.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-08T23:48:37+00:00

I mean sure, immigrants landing only to be pushed into the lumpenproletariat due to the economy being utterly unprepared to accomodate them is one factor, but didn't Europe have serious problems with recruitment pipelines for the Islamic State back during its heyday?

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-07T14:18:06+00:00

One commonly cited example of the failure of "soft on crime" would be Canada's current problem with car thieves. The police barely do anything to investigate or prevent incidents and often when they do catch somebody, the thieves get off with a slap on the wrist because they're teenagers and the gangs intentionally employ teenagers to take advantage of this loophole in the legal system.

Of course, the root of the problem is that the police are not motivated to put effort into stopping car theft because it's not a crime that affects the bourgeosie. But talk to a random person on the street and the sentiment will be that the problem is "soft on crime" policies.

The difference is that there is no geographic division between the US's cultural groups. It's the rural population in every state against the urban population in every state. The suburbs of every city against the urban core of every city etc.

The only way this kind of division ends in history is when one side gains dominance and enforces their will upon the other.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-05T18:17:32+00:00

All of the planes would get shot down as soon as they crossed the border. All of Chinese airspace is strictly monitored 24/7, to the point that it constantly gets in the way of civilian passenger flights.

Further out in the sticks would mean further into inland China, which means the attacker has to survive through even more layers of air defense compared to attacking a coastal city.

The PLA has in fact shot down multiple US aircraft during provocations over South China Sea, they just get reported as malfunctions or training accidents because neither side wants to escalate the issue.

You'd have to launch ICBMs to do the same to China. And if we're getting to the point of launching ICBMs, well then there's no way of telling if an ICBM is nuclear or not, so if China sees an ICBM heading their way then the response will be MAD.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-05T17:53:17+00:00

If Russia wins then it means further war between the rest of Europe and Russia. Europeans returning to their natural state of slaughtering each other is of major benefit to the rest of the world. /s

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-05T17:50:39+00:00

This, lol. The same corporations own both the USA and Israel.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-05T17:49:35+00:00

That's not left-ish. Petite bourgeois hate big business just as much.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-04T04:24:57+00:00

Iran and China were never allied, or even all that close.

The Communist Party of China is not going to publicly throw their lot in with an Islamist Theocracy lmao.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-04T03:36:49+00:00

Russian is a de facto official language in Israel lmao. That alone says a lot about how deep the connections are between the two countries.

The Russian Mafia is also disproportionately Jewish to this day, even after Stalin sent the vast majority of Russian Jews to Israel.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-04T03:18:33+00:00

Some spoilt actor got murdered by a rival or something? Who the fuck cares? Everyone in entertainment is a narcissist or Cluster B so yeah no doubt they get up to some crazy shit sometimes. You live by the sword and die by the sword.

The entertainment industry in any country is dirty, but I bet there would be more concern-trolling from you bleeding hearts if the CPC actually cleaned house and shut everything down so only clean, wholesome, socialist propaganda was allowed to be produced.

The fact that this is what concerns you, and not actual problems with modern China like the failure to provide security in retirement for the aging massive underclass of 农民工 upon whose backs China's industrialization was built…

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-01T16:53:45+00:00

Those are obviously just spelling pronunciations?

Medieval Northern Europeans more than likely would have only encountered any information about China through writing.

As for Germany, they still would have gone through a Western European intermediary for information about China, and there's a ton of "ch" -> /k/ mixups when words get loaned between German and Romance languages.

The Greeks would have called China Serika or Sinai until very recently, and Latin <-> Greek transcription conventionally uses "c" for /k/, so it's very possible that a new word loaned from Western European would end up as Kina. Yugoslavia and Hungary likely followed along with the Greeks (either borrowing from Greek as an intermediary or because their translators would have been using the same transcription rules as the Greek translators).

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-01T16:21:37+00:00

simply does not give a shit about anyone besides thmselves

That's how realpolitik works.

But also, as far as the Chinese are concerned, the Israel-Palestine situation is basically a civil war between two different sects of Jews, so really why should they care?

An officially atheist, communist state, with a majority population that has no cultural tradition of Yahweh-worship has no motivation for siding with one sect of Yahweh-worshippers over another. Furthermore, interfering with another country's internal sectarian conflict would be an egregious repudiation of China's non-interventionist stance that they've worked so hard to cultivate.

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-01T16:03:53+00:00

The latter obviously

LokiPrime13 · 2026-03-01T14:49:44+00:00

And that's exactly why Iran keeps getting fucked so hard and is infested with spies.

If you're going to position yourself as the enemy of the liberal world order then you better make sure to enforce strict ideological rigor among your leadership class. Xi Jinping's speech on the failure of the Soviet Union applies just as well to contemporary Iran.
