That’s why I’m here. I do like the style of VRT in flanders. They allow everyone to come there. All political parties.
Yesterday they showed the earthquake that reached Bangkok. The last few days they showed the protests in Istanbul.
But, I haven’t heard anything about the protests in Jakarta. Nothing about how a military person has become the new president in Indonesia.
“Prabowo Subianto Djojohadikusumo (EYD: Joyohadikusumo; born 17 October 1951) is an Indonesian politician, businessman, and retired army general serving as the eighth president of Indonesia since 2024.”
For some reason this doesn’t seem to be important.
And that’s why I enjoy social media without a centralised authority.
Okay I misread about the 80% figure. It’s more about 50%. They just control 80% of the output through majority stakes.
But Chinese companies are going after all the cobalt in the world. It’s their industry that they want to shine in.
“Singapore does it”, my boss worked there and told me this week multiple times that Singaporeans are the most selfish ego centered people he has ever met. My wife grew up in Bintan, and she agrees. They are basically the Americans of south east Asia.
The subsidies are trickle down economics, heavily criticised by socialists.
Although income inequality is dropping in china. 0,35 Gini. In USA it’s 0,41. But here in the EU, it’s 0,29.

Be careful next time

That is normal. USA does it too, don’t you think?

Why are you talking about your boss and your wife? We’re talking about Singapore which also heavily control their population

And you’re allowed to do it because we allow opposition.
That’s democracy.
It’s absolutely crazy how brainwashed westerners are to believe that Democracy is when the people can’t control policy, but they’re allowed to importantly post criticism of it online.
I showed tank man, just literally no answer. But she asked about how Turkish Uyghurs were treated (she’s Turkish diaspora). Then it showed some very different answer than le chat mistral.
Basically the answer on DeepSeek is something you guys here would copy paste lol
Unstable Vs stable.
But the latter is stable because public opinion is heavily guided.
Girl at work tried to use DeepSeek so I showed her some questions and then asked the same questions on le chat mistral.
A little bit of a different answer 😁
China heavily controls their population. Just what it is.
Then we have people like you defending china.
Chinese companies own 80% of cobalt in Congo. They use this to dominate the battery market.
They subsidise EV and phone companies. So that I get those items on the back of Chinese tax payers.
They are capitalists. But you can’t really say that in china, now can you.
It you think USA public opinion isn’t extremely heavily guided and controlled, then I can only compare you to a fish that doesn’t know what water is.
I’m European, criticising our government here in Belgium is our national sport.
So? Your public opinion is still heavily guided and controlled.
Omg, they are talking about you!

Socialism is more than income
And thanks for links
When I say that china is just another capitalist nation, then your whataboutism to other capitalist nations does not defend china.
It proves my point.
China heavily guides public opinion, there’s no opposition allowed.
And you are a mouthpiece for the Chinese government.
And you’re allowed to do it because we allow opposition.
That’s democracy.
It’s absolutely crazy how brainwashed westerners are to believe that Democracy is when the people can’t control policy, but they’re allowed to importantly post criticism of it online.
Impotently?
Yeah, dang autocorrect
I am not interested in defending China. I want you to know that West is not holy
It is good then. Many oppositions only care about themselves
So the opposition, ml instance, only cares about themselves and thus should be heavily censored?
I thought we were here on Lemmy so that we could choose what content we see and which content we want to upload.
I said “many oppositions only care about themselves” not “all oppositions only care about themselves”
Ah yes, only the opposition that you belong to 😁
How convenient
