There is very real convergence between the US and China right now, and it has nothing to do with Mahmdani or "socialism".
It has everything to do with nationalism and a US president who openly admires the authoritarian strength he believes China represents.

Put this by @franceshisgen.bsky.social on my list awhile back, and being the scatterbrain I am it took a bit to get around to it. It's worth a few minutes of your time, if for nothing else than to acknowledge the bravery it takes to stand up and say this right now. nuvoices.com/2025/07/01/i...

This type of ideological sanctioning has long gone on in Chinese universities where teachers are reported to Party officials for saying things unacceptable to CCP orthodoxy.
another data point in the administration's attempt to decimate american higher education.
we are in the grips of the greatest wave of censorship - of criticism, of ideas, of learning - any of us have seen in this country. anywhere else & media/pols would be calling it 'repression' nonstop.

A professor at Texas A&M taught… something related to gender that offended a student, who secretly filmed herself objecting. That video is picked up by TX legislators, who demand her firing, and now the dean and dept head have been fired.

A very moving and informative essay with insights on how and why individuals (in China) consult LLMs for medical advice, and how Chinese companies employ LLMs in healthcare already now.
Not long after DeepSeek R1 launched, I discovered that my mother had started using the chatbot as her virtual doctor.
I worried about her reliance on AI. But over time, I realized Dr. DeepSeek was offering something no human in her life could.

Someone should ask China hawks what they think about economic coercion in bilateral relations with smaller neighbors to force a political outcome
We are in new territory with Trump’s latest trade letter, threatening a 50% tariff on imports from Brazil starting Aug. 1
—The US runs a rare trade surplus with Brazil, so there’s no deficit to fix
—Trump says these duties are explicitly over political concerns, not economic ones
