At what point did anyone think cloudflare were the good guys? It’s a facade. They have shown multiple times over the years they are not ok the side of the users. They will try sweep things under the rug unless it ends up on HN or something.

While that is true. The people of Taiwan and the government don’t care to make claims on China. The island literally just wants to live their life. But if they tried to change their constitution and remove any claim it would be seen as an “

You stated: > Maybe TSMC has big influence over Taiwan's government or just outright owns key politicians under the table. I’m pointing out this is just plain Wrong. TSMC was created by the government and invested in by the people

For 200 years China did nothing with Taiwan. The Ming dynasty called it a ball of mud in the water not worth the effort of the Chinese people. The Qing dynasty did not allow anyone to travel to Taiwan because it was too unsafe to travel. Th

Not a position they held until after ROC went to Taiwan. Then they changed their tune. Remember. PRC advocated for Taiwan independence and considered Taiwan an independent nation until around 1940s.

Drive around at 2am. I haven’t lived in China since pre-covid but back then you would see in the early morning police coming to wake them up and move them along. But middle of the night you can drive around see people sleeping under bridges

One of the benefits to China is the low drug use. But you’re blind if you can’t find insane amount of homeless people in Beijing or shanghai. Or that most people there are struggling. If you want to live with tunnel vision then it’s an amaz

I did. When I lived in China and traveled outside of Shanghai it was eye opening. People living in slums with no running water or toilets. No trains. No buses. No taxis. The nicest people ever but makes you realise that the whole eliminatin

600m people in China live in poverty despite claims of the CPC eliminating it. Traveling around China you see this. Showing off main cities is not proof that people don’t live in poverty. Low crime is simply not true. Most crimes are not re

Deepseek was a crypto mining operation before they pivoted to AI. They have an insane amount of GPUs laying around. So we have no idea how much compute they have compared to xAI.

That’s still a lot more thinking than anyone on the left does.

Of course you’re proud. It’s your righteousness.

The left can’t understand people exist with a different view point or even fathom the concept that they could be wrong.
