Vietnam paying tariffs is pretty cringe. For being AES they play too much into the west.

The issue is that production is bottlenecked so no amount of extra money can help that in the short term

Apparently the entrances to Fordow have been re-opened.

I’m not sure the picture shows that. Also it seems that at least they are plugging the holes but not opening the tunnels. Still, this could be similar to what happened at Isfahan, where they plugged the holes then reopened.

On the other hand, Iran is now saying that Fordow was seriously damaged. The hypothesis is that it’s a way to maintain obscurity about the true status of the nuclear program.

This could be added to the fact that Iran is going through with not letting the IAEA in.

He’s the one truly pessimistic but realist voice on Palestine. I will try to learn his posture to maintain pessimism of the intellect, because the situation today is pretty grim.

On the political end of course, but on the possibility of representing the “left” they are more and more alienated from the mass of their voters.

I would think about it as losing popular support and being boycotted

The Democratic party are showing themselves to be a disfuncional party. That said, I have a question: How likely is the Democratic party to collapse?

If the Dems end up collapsing, IMO that’s the best possible outcome for the political left wing, considering that:

a) The democrats usually are more attuned to the needs of the national and international bourgeoisie in material terms.

And

b) The democrats are the only left wing outlet today, so them collapsing provides an opening for a proper left wing party to gain prominence.

There’s no reason for other countries to put a tariff on US goods when other countries are export economies. So no, I don’t think that on itself is a win for the US.

What concessions has he got at this point?

War goods production ramp up going on at a time where there is no clear rally for war in US civil society and causing the US to deindustrialize even more in terms of consumer goods is definitely not a good mixture.

It’s classical right wing contradictions at play. Either:

1. Allow cheap immigrant labor to fill the pockets of gringo capitalists.

Or

2. Fulfil the racists that want to expell any one with a molecule of melanin in their skin.

US civil society is thoroughly fucked

It was one of the many memes from r/cth at the time, like the volcel police or PPB.

When chapo.chat was created eventually a vote was made on a rename and Hexbear was chosen.

I will say, your analysis usually put China in a light of self-harm and poor foreign policy. Would you not think that policymakers are aware of the consequences you show here? Why, on your opinion, would they be taking steps that seem harmful to you? Cause I don’t think they would be so stupid to basically screw themselves over unknowingly.

So, what’s everyone’s take on the possibility of the US taking on China?

With the caveat that it is under operation

No I agree. I think if vibrations themselves can destroy a static centrifuge then a simple earthquake could destroy the facility easily, which the facility should be planned for.

Fucking pig
