in fucking destitution

Amazing, after 5 months of fighting, the Pentagon/Navy admits they're losing the attritional battle, they also admit that Yemen is capable of striking the Mediterranean. Prosperity Guardian: Mission Failed.

awww they’re so cute when they’re angry

For the past seventeen years, the approval rating of the central government of the People’s Republic of China has remained higher than 90%

i’ve seen multiple communists on this website spread the talking point that the Iranian people are happy about Raeisi’s death.

just know these people are advancing the imperialist narrative

Some people love to ask variations of 'Why do tankies object to idiot Americans in cracking jokes against America's questionable enemies?'

It's a tedious question but it deserves an answer.

But it's been answered.

Today's funeral procession of our 'hated' president and his companions in the city of Tabriz Piers. President Raisi's helicopter crashed near this city.

The main funeral ceremony will take place in Tehran tomorrow.

But go on caricaturing Iran and backing the #GazaGenocide .

China announced a huge 300 billion-yuan ($41.5 billion) social housing program.

China popped its real estate bubble, refusing to bail out over-indebted private developers.

Now state-owned enterprises can use this money to buy unsold homes, then offer them as affordable housing.

Wow, China and Russia issued an extraordinary joint statement yesterday, with almost 8,000 words when translated into English, and in many ways more important than the famous 'no limits' partnership statement in February 2022.

Here are the points that stood out for me.
