Fetch the Fire Brigade: Chinese People Being ‘Human’ Again! (22.7.2023)

A problem has sometimes been caused by these barricades when people have been trapped in their flats by out of control fires and have been unable to get to the front door! This delay between a fire being reported, the Fire Brigade arriving and the victim(s) getting out can be lethal! As can be seen here, the local people took matters into their own hands and decided to act! This action prevented this young child from be trapped between the barricades and the fire and being burned to death!

Twitter’s New $5M Revenue Sharing Programme Gives Payouts To Far-Right Influencers! (22.7.2023)

Andrew Tate, who was recently released from jail and placed under house arrest on charges of human trafficking, rape and forming an organized criminal group, posted that he had been paid more than $20,000. Others reporting a range of payments (made via Stripe) included Rogan O’Handley (known online as DC Draino). “This is a nice turnaround from being banned by Twitter 1.0 for almost 2 years to now being paid to post Thank you @elonmusk,” O’Handley tweeted.

West Germany: A Single Christian Monk in Lützerath – Takes on the Police in a Muddy Field! (20.7.2023)

I was told about this interesting individual via an ‘Anarchist Activist’ Telegram Channel! I have no idea if he is a monk – but I doubt it – as such ‘Catholic’ monastics have to follow struct Monastic Rules usually derived from a famous Saint. Furthermore, I am not a supporter of Anarchism – as I think this is merely the ideology of hyper-individualism, almost always right-wing – and an expression of the Bourgeois system. Nevertheless, the careful use of ‘force’ here is interesting – as there is NO come-back from the State!

China: Huawei to Roll-Out 5.5G Equipment! (20.7.2023)

In China, the number of 5G base stations exceeded 2.84 million by the end of May as the country ramped up efforts to build the world’s largest and most advanced network infrastructure, said Wang Jiangping, vice-minister of industry and information technology, during the Global Digital Economy Conference 2023 held in Beijing earlier this month.

With technologically advanced network infrastructure, China has been accelerating the development of the digital economy in recent years.

The scale of China’s digital economy grew to 50.2 trillion yuan ($7 trillion) in 2022. The share of the digital economy in the country’s GDP rose to 41.5 percent, making it an important engine for stable growth and transformation, according to data from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology.

With service models and content evolving continuously, breakthroughs in technologies like goggles-free 3D are creating unprecedented immersive experiences for users. However, these new services require stronger 5G network capabilities, making a stronger case for 5.5G modalities.

Contradictions of Modern Russia! (19.7.2023)

Modern Russians are living in a Western economic system, following a Western religion and expressing a Western form of fascism – but the ‘liberalism’ Russia is opposing today was developed in the West between 1917-1991! A similar argument can be made for the ‘decadence’ associated with the ‘Weimar Republic’ (1918-1933) – a process which involved a ‘mirroring’ within German society of the apparent ‘freedom’ perceived as existing in the USSR! Russia has been historically responsible for most of the ills it has been suffering since betraying its own Socialist Revolution in 1991! Spouting fascist rhetoric and threatening warfare is the behaviour of the far-right – and makes Russia no better than the Neo-Nazi Ukraine it is opposing!
