ricordo a tutti che i wumao sono troll cinesi
i bot fanno parte della rete per agganciare gli utenti

approfitto di questo evento per mettere qui una piccola considerazione

potrebbe tornare utile per inquadrare la situazione generale della Cina dall'interno

il motivo per cui la Cina ha ancora uno Stato solido
nonostante l'economia debole e i casini internazionali 👇
La nave è cinese anche in questo caso

l'armatore e l'equipaggio sono russi

Questo quello che sappiamo

non mi sogno nemmeno di andare oltre

osservo

lo faccio sempre e parlo solo quando sono sicura

sta storia la seguo da ieri

ma io non parlo se non capisco

Now image this quotations appearing in the future history books: would be hilarious 😂

(btw he's not wrong)
"If I had a nickel for every time a Chinese ship was dragging its anchor on the bottom of the Baltic Sea in the vicinity of important cables I would have two nickels, which isn't much, but it's weird that it happened twice."

Le democrazie occidentali continuano a pensare in politica estera e relazioni internazionali come nel decennio '90, senza essersi resi conto che la realtà di oggi è assai più simile a una Guerra Fredda 2.0

🇨🇳, 🇷🇺, 🇮🇳 e 🇮🇷 lo hanno capito da tempo. Mi chiedo quando saremo noi ad aprire gli occhi... 🤦

Russia has distorted key concepts in Western discourse on this war, redefining any effort to 'resist Russian aggression' as escalation. More in my @thestudyofwar.bsky.social essay from earlier this year understandingwar.org/backgrounder...

The 🇺🇸 for several decades are victims of their own Cold War mentality: the uncertainty of what might follow after 🇷🇺's fall, scares them too much. They prefer to keep an old, infirm giant barely standing but that they know well, rather than face the unknown trying to have an impact on the world
Russia is overextend with this war, weakening and increasingly selling itself out to China to continue. The motivation not to hurt Russia too much and to withhold aid from Ukraine perversely turns Russia into a Chinese client state and excites geopolitics.
