Comment on Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs
Squizzy@lemmy.world 5 hours agoThen what’s this
Show me the youth unemployment figures.
spreading the contact of Chinese people with westerners through for example XiaoHongShu (RedNote) or TikTok, which is why the US wants to ban access to these apps
You missed the part where China hurried through a tiktok like curtain to silo users.
You must have also missed the social credit scoring. The HK protests.
You may or may not think that this is justified, but it’s quite literally the definition of “closing up”, and China is engaging in exactly the opposite.
This is textbook tolerance paradox stuff, either accept propaganda or you ae against free speech. Oligarchical authoritarian cunts should not have access into a foreign population, that is why Trump is in power. Are you telling me the EU has less press freedoms than Russia or China? Because closing the gap doesnt mean much if its by a tenth of a degree.
I beg you tell the same to a Ukrainian or to a Vietnamese
Its clear you are passionate and refusing to take on board an alternative view. There is nothing in what I have said that should lead you to reply with this. Understand proxy wars and realise that military spending kept the direct warfare cold.
Ukraine is atrocity that is only tied to the cold war by way of Russia continuing fighting it while the US got complacent and allowed their government to fall which lead to a lack of support/tacit support for Russia.

According to SCMP, “The urban jobless rate among those aged 16 to 24 – excluding students – fell to 15.8 per cent last month, down from 16.5 per cent in March, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics on Tuesday”. What’s your point? It literally says “released by the National Bureau of Statistics”, what’s the government hiding??
Can you source this claim, please?
This is a nothingburger made up by western bad-faith actors. There is no such thing as a social credit score in China. Unlike in the US, where you can go into your bank account to check your “good citizen meter” and see how likely you are to get a mortgage.
Nothing compared to ICE kidnapping people from their literal homes masked, putting them into unmarked vans, and deporting them without due process or putting them in prison.
So, China forbidding western media is oppressive and dictatorial because western press good, but the West forbidding Russian media is cool and based because Russian media bad? You’re only showing your bias here if you think western media has any semblance of objectivity, especially when it comes to international politics.
Not than Russia, Russia is further advanced towards fascism than the EU, so it’s worse. But China is getting better and the EU is getting worse.
It’s clear that you only care about deaths if they take place on the first world. You want to avoid “direct confrontation” because you care more about Europeans and Americans than you do about Vietnamese, Korean or Iraqi. You take pride in how much the “military expenditure in the cold war prevented direct conflict” without caring about how much more conflict it stoked outside the west.
False. The invasion of Ukraine is a policy pursued by the Russian goverment as a way to preserve the sphere of influence that the west is eroding each day through NATO and economic/soft power. You can condemn it, it’s cruel and abhorrent, but it’s not exclusively Russia to blame, and in 10 years from now this will be clear to everyone.
