China: Humanoid Robot Beats – Usain Bolt’s – 100-Metre World Record Time! (24.8.2026)

Let’s face, a “robot” is basically a car manifesting its fast manoeuvrability via “two-legs” – instead of wheels. A standard car, depending upon the skill of the driver, should be able to easily beat the fastest of humans. A human-body lacks the mechanical ability to accelerate from 0-60mph in five-seconds – on the grounds that it has not been an evolutionary necessity. The idea that an artificial machine, just because it has been given the moulded externality of a “human-shaped body” – does not mean it has any genuine relationship (or connection) to a “biologically-functioning” human-body. What is the difference between a “robot” and a “drone”? Answer – the ability to “flight”. And that’s about it. What’s next – parachuting? Rock-climbing? Diving? It is an interesting gimmick and I suspect the CPC might be using ths technology to intimidate the US by proxy – as these “funny little fellows” might be used as expendable infantry soldiers in a future war of self-defence against US aggression.

China: Breakfast Shop Owner’s Gesture to Child with Cancer – Sparks Wave of Giving! (22.8.2026)

Wang, 33, had opened the breakfast shop less than a month earlier. He said he wanted to help after thinking about the financial and emotional pressure on families caring for children undergoing chemotherapy. The cash gift was roughly equal to the profit from 25 of his low-priced egg pancakes.

After the story spread online, Wang’s revenue doubled the next day and customer traffic nearly tripled. Some patrons asked that meals be given to delivery riders or sanitation workers instead. Wang later shut down some delivery channels to manage demand, refused donations and pledged to return anonymous transfers, saying he would use part of his profits to support workers in his community.

Spectres of Marx - Jacques Derrida - Deconstruction

UK: Arday – Who Art in Heaven – Hallowed Be Thy Name! (21.8.2026)

I respect Dawn Butler, and have listened to her opinion over the years, but I was forwarded a video of a speech she made at a pro-Arday rally recently, where she firmly mounted the bandwagon and claimed that the act of “unmasking dishonesty” amounted to a “racist attack” – on the grounds that the right supported the exposure. Who cares what the right thinks? It is this kind of flawed logic that permits corruption to become normalised and whistle-blowers to live in fear. If this bourgeois game is all about “equality” – then surely “equality of accountability” is a part of this process? As you can see, the days of a united front between Black and non-Black people has not existed for sometime. Just as long as Black people align themselves with establishmentarian capitalism – then these sociological ruptures are bound to happen. There is no point digging the hole you fall into – and then blaming “Whitey” for inventing the shovel. You are being manipulated by a ruthless class-system. It is designed to make us hate and fight one another. Toughen-up, sort your life out, and get your mind straight.

Migrants - Do Not Have Sex With Children!

UK: Home Office Instructs Migrants Not to Mistreat Women – Not to Sexually Assault Partners – Not to Have Sex with Children! (20.8.2026)

Hong Kong had double-decker buses and you could tell the British had been there – although I was harassed by the police for being a European in a Chinese area (I went in 1999). Portugal had TV sets with no volume buttons – so that the government could turn the noise down at night. It was the poverty that I saw outside the tourist spots that effected me the most. Holland was perhaps the most laid-back and tolerant country I visited. Labour has no intention of removing the anti-union laws or stopping mass immigration. This leaflet smacks of desperation as Labour faces the threat of being voted-out and a far-right party taking its place. This leaflet is cosmetic. indeed, it comes across as farcical. The far-right portray the issue as the migrants committing crimes against the (White) British – but the migrants (or at least a certain strata of that population) commits crimes against other migrants – whilst crime is also committed against migrants by non-migrants. Migrants are also raped and robbed. It is the concept of the free movement of cheap labour over national borders that is causing all the problems. Now, Burnham has announced that there are “too many” White areas left outside of the major cities that he intends to fill-up with new arrivals. It is stupid statemets like this that leads to mass protests and lost elections.

Marxist Internet Archive - Trotskyite

Email: Is the “Marxist Internet Archive” Trotskyite? (18.8.2026)

That is all they do – mimicking their master – Leon Trotsky – who was a Zionist. Now, on the practical side, a free text and eBooks is a free text and eBook – a material reality the masses can benefit from without falling pray to Trotskyite grooming. Let these traitors move around the catalogue and place this text here and that text there – who cares – we are on to them. We can dialectically benefit from the texts the MAI host by a) exposing Trotskyism, and b) generating genuine Revolutionary forces. With regards my own experience, some years ago I acquired the Collected Works of Stalin in hardback and was busy checking whether MAI was correctly listing his works.

China Has Explored the Celestial Realms for Thousands of Years!

China: Ancient Astronomical Instruments Draw Museum-Goers to Cosmic Quest! (15.8.2026)

HEFEI, Aug. 14 (Xinhua) — China’s museums are often defined by their porcelain, calligraphy and ritual vessels. But a new exhibition in east China’s Anhui Province is turning the spotlight away from traditional treasures and toward scientific endeavors of the past, showcasing jade cosmograms, celestial star charts and bronze globes crafted by astronomers centuries ago.

Titled “Divine-Sky Exploration: The Cosmological Vision of Chinese Civilization,” the exhibition at the Anhui Museum brings together nearly 300 artifacts from 48 institutions nationwide. It is a rare exhibition in China focused specifically on presenting the country’s “understanding of the universe” through cultural relics.

Since its launch in July, the show has drawn some 350,000 visitors, fascinated by the instruments ancient Chinese used to observe, measure and pay homage to the universe.
