⬆️ After watching a 28min 'conversation' with former Singapore FM George Yeo on the subject of "What we get wrong about China", I'm left wondering how widespread his Han-exceptionalist views actually are among Singapore's ruling 'Han-chinese' elite or indeed its 3/4 Han population.

The European think-tank interviewer had a shocking lack of understanding of CCP-era PRC/China or Chinese history though and simply lapped up the exceptionalist lore like it's meant to — without any questioning.

Remember that time Globalists led an unlawful occupation in the capital of Ottawa, threatened citizens, and displayed Nazi and Trump flags all while using their horns as sound torture? Or what about the time they stated that abusing trans kids is a parental right? Oh wait, that was you guys who did that! Sorry, but we see you for the domestic terrorists you are, and we aren't playing. #cdnpoli #OttawaOccupation #globalism

Division of the people is an important step in fascism, wonder how globalism works in the Brexit Fascism?

My view towards plutocrats pushing for fascist globalism seems shakey.

When was the last time y'all read *anything* about the roof-of-the-world -sized prison called #Tibet ?

Our civilization needs to learn how to multitask *and* how not to forget out of convenience.

It's not hard to argue that #putin was emboldened to embark on the genocidal invasion of #Ukraine *because* the neighbouring #dictatorship had *not* faced any tangible consequences over its #lebensraum genocides...

Two dictatorships with 19th century mindset bossing over the #UN... what could go wrong.

☝️ Go and read, that is, unless you deliberately want to remain "blissfully unaware".

「In November 2020 The New York Times reported that a number of companies, including Nike, Coca-Cola, Apple, Adidas, Calvin Klein, Campbell Soup Company, Costco, H&M, Patagonia, Tommy Hilfiger and others, lobbied Congress to water down the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, which was aimed at barring US companies from relying on the forced labour of Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities in China’s Xinjiang region. The companies argued that the ban was too broad and would disrupt the global supply chain.

In September 2019, US billionaire Michael Bloomberg told Firing Line‘s Margaret Hoover that Xi Jinping “is not a dictator” and that he has to “satisfy his constituents”. He also argued that Chinese Communist officials “listen to the public”. Bloomberg’s media company has been criticized in the past for self-censoring in order not to upset the Chinese government.」

#Globalism has gone too far. My spouse just got ugly boots from the UK (where else?) delivered to her in Canada. Well, at least she’s happy. I’ll refrain from posting them to avoid her further embarrassment, but imagine brutalism in dark blue canvas.

#Capitalism gave #globalism a bad rap.

There's nothing really wrong with the #concept of globalism prima facie, which is to tear down #international barriers.

The problem with it's implementation is that it's been exclusively for the rich and powerful and not, say, regular folks.

So MegaCorp can get cheap #overseas labor and buy cheap overseas products more or less effortlessly, but the average Joe can't just go work in New Zealand or Italy without jumping through a few years of hoops.

Business uber alles...

This #AtlanticCouncil report appears to boil down to suggestion that businesses in the Free World... wait for it... *petition* the CCP dictatorship so that the #CCP can more productively use #HongKong as a newly-neutered #bankingcolony in its pursuit of global objectives.

Just like before, but now with "more, better repression" for #Hongkongers...

Everybody knows "lobbying" the CCP is beyond pointless so these collaborating corporations will instead lobby governments in democracies against any restrictions on business projects the CCP deems beneficial to it.

Oh well, it is a *choice* to aid and abet repressive #dictatorship — fundamentally hostile to any form of democracy — through business.

"Governments in poor states were forced to find more dollars to service their international debts at the same time as most of the worlds’ dollars were flowing back into the safe haven of the US. Unsurprisingly, this resulted in a deep debt crisis—arguably deeper than the one that afflicted the Global South in the 1980s"

Democracies could have, *should* have delivered despotism and military-expansionism a short, sharp shock of a coup de grâce in #1989.

But no. Business (with dictators) uber alles.

So now we have both #CCP #china and (as always) neo-imperial #russia trying to destroy liberal and progressive democratic order globally.

And this time we also have #climatechange, #plastic and other #pollutioncrises to deal with.

Isn't it time for all democracies to pull together and *only* deal with #dictatorships to the minimum extent where it objectively benefits humanity instead of empowering repressive authoritarians?

Let's see how powerful the old men of CCP are with zero foreign funding, technology and aid,,,

☝️ "The Russia-Ukraine war is not merely a humanitarian calamity, a monstrous collection of crimes against humanity, a gross violation of solemn agreements and international law. It is also a watershed, in which much will be determined about the future of the international system. It could lead to a very dark place, not different in kind from that of the 1930s and 1940s, if the dictators get their way. But if the liberal democracies unite and display the resolve, enterprise, and military capacity that they have shown before, that outcome can still be avoided."

Pandemic Made Globalism Stronger!

Ian Bremmer, President and Founder of Eurasia Group claims one of the obstacles to achieving globalization and a “new order” is “nationalism” at the World Government Summit 2023 in Dubai

He cites Trump’s “America First” agenda as an obstacle

He also claims the “pandemic” made globalism stronger

Another scary idea from the Democrats

Mass. Prisoners Could Choose Between Freedom And Their Organs
https://www.levernews.com/mass-prisoners-could-choose-between-freedom-and-their-organs

A new bill would allow prisoners to get time off their sentence if they donate their organs or bone marrow.

"Massachusetts Democrats have a bold new proposal for prisoners: donate your organs or bone marrow, and get as little as a couple of months off of your sentence. The legislation, which has attracted five cosponsors in the state House, raises major bioethical concerns for the 6,000-plus people currently held in the Bay State’s prisons. In essence, the bill would ask prisoners which is more important to them: their freedom, or their organs and bone marrow."

"The Ethics Committee of the United Network for Organ Sharing, the nonprofit that administers organ transplants in the United States, has panned proposals like the Massachusetts bill. “Any law or proposal that allows a person to trade an organ for a reduction in sentence… raises numerous issues,” the committee says in a position statement on their website.

The legislation, HD 3822, states, “The Bone Marrow and Organ Donation Program shall allow eligible incarcerated individuals to gain not less than 60 and not more than 365 day reduction in the length of their committed sentence in [prison], on the condition that the incarcerated individual has donated bone marrow or organ(s).”

A five-member “Bone Marrow and Organ Donation Committee,” only one of whom is designated to be a prisoners’ rights advocate, would decide how much time off prisoners would receive from donating organs."

@AnokheeTara they’re surprisingly not too bad per box, but in aggregate… yea. It’s a lot of steel. 😅 It’s wild to me to consider that many fitness equipment companies have their stuff manufactured outside of the Continental USA and ship it in. Like, there are planes, barges, trains, and 52’ 18-wheelers — an entire logistics operation — that’s moving literally dead weight across the globe. Just weight. It doesn’t *do* anything — it’s just heavy by design for my vanity. Lol #globalism

And, 10’s of billion dollars have been printed through QE to prop up the ponzi valuations of banks & bonds, or else the system crashes and pensions vanish.

It’s the pinnacle of inefficiency, if you think about it for more than a few moments from a monetary policy perspective:

Jason Hickel A contradiction lies at the very centre of the neoliberal project. On a theoretical level, neoliber- alism promises to bring about a purer form of democracy, unsullied by the tyranny of the state. Indeed, his claim serves as the moral lodestar for neoliberal ideology — the banner under which it justifies radical market dercgulation. But, in practice,it becomes clear that the opposite i true: that neoliberalism tends to undemine democracy and political freedom (see Bruff 2014; Springer 2009). More than 40 years of experimentation with neoliberalism shows that it erodes the power of voters to decide the rules that govern the economic systems they inhabi. It allows for the colonization of existing political forums by elite interests ~ a process known as poliical capture — and sets up new political forums, such as the World Bank, the IME and the WTO, that preclude democratic representation from the outset. Neoliberalism also tends to undermine national sovereigaty, to the point where the parliaments of putatively independent nations no longer have power over their own policy decisions, but are governed instead by foreign banks, the US Treasury, trade agreements, and undemocratic international institutions, all of which
