How the tables turn huh, not too long ago the US and friends were settling shop in China and Taiwan, now the shoe is on the other foot
I think the cold war situation is already pretty defined it is China Russia Iran and DPRK vs NATO with some others in the middle that didn’t take a hard stance on each, I think the isolation of China wasn’t bigger only because the world is too dependent on their industrial output to cut them off more drastically and that’s one reason why I think open war against China is not viable by anyone in the west as things currently stand
Yes their backs are against the wall, which explains their despair which takes the form of warmongering everywhere
Yeah their last hope was the semi conductor industry, but China basically double whammy the US in that front, first their market is so huge and so important that any processor company will work around US blockades to sell to China, nvidia being a relevant example, and on the other hand they built their own industry in this sector so if push comes to shove, they have a viable avenue, not as good as the American companies state of the art but plenty good, with the bonus third whammy being that under this context of push coming to.shove, China would reintegrate Taiwan seizing control of basically the entire global chain of production
Yeah sounds about right, will all respect to comrade critical resist, not the best post, appreciated the message but it’s quite long to say not that much, and further more the guy mentioned as the golden fleeced lamb seems to not be all that powerful in doing as such. I don’t mean my criticism in any mean spirit just sharing my perception about it.
I don’’ t get the connection of the fable and the news.
I don’t fear war ai right now, the point that scares me is US to stir up war in Korea (again) just to gather more data to train their models. And here are some sources, nothing conclusive but it is quite suggestive https://www.palantir.com/platforms/aip/defense/

My reading of this(now we’re into full speculation mode) is that all this ai training madness on Ukraine is the US both realizing that the eastern block might be better armed them them, as well as the US trying to use the headstart they have in advanced machine learning hardware, via nvidia and stuff to try to get the military upper hand via ai before it’s too late. I think this is more out despair than sound strategy, but this whole analysis might be wishful thinking leading me to think the US is in worse shape than it really is.
I’ve actually heard from pretty respectable folks, that one, an possibly quite an important one as it is, of the goals of NATO in Ukraine is to gather training data for war/propaganda oriented AI, via the palantir company. And apparently same goes for Israel, so for this purpose who wins is not relevant just that the fight rages on.
And lastly and quite concerning palantir apparently has expanded towards south Korea, which is quite alarming if the trend continues.
Yeah I think that Russia will complete their control on Donetsk oblast, and maybe cross the river on the southern oblasts that they control half of it, and possibly just stand on the defense or slow down the attacks even further, so either Ukraine makes a silent armistice in the form of just not attacking anymore, allowing those territories to be more and more assimilated to Russia, or they’ll keep limping along until there is nothing else left in the tank
After they lost vughledar (not sure about the spelling) things got extra bad for Ukraine, that city was a very strong fortification, on elevated ground that ensured a lot of surveillance of the surrounding areas and as consequence of the strength of that portion was a crucial point of the supply line for the battle front of two neighboring cities. Russia took almost a year to take the city down, and the consequence is quite dire to Ukraine for not only they lost such a valuable position, but Russia, naturally, now has control of a very strong defensive position that allows powerful support of an extensive area. If you look at the map, from vughledar so Zaporozhye Ukraine will have a hard time defending, and that is no small area.

Thank you comrade
Thank you so much
Yeah absolutely I sent my message not so much to convince you more as a source of information to anyone else listening that might have thought that the training argument is persuasive enough to believe or at least be on the fence but closer to believing, like it’s impossible to know for sure, but I’m working with the assumption that it’s a lie, and I believe it to be the reasonable thing to do.
Yeah the specialist I heard said could be training but you could send a thousand people to train 10 is absurd for that purpose it’s logistically unreasonable
Yes I see this argument but the analysis that suggests that they didn’t sent, or at the very least nearly as much sounds more compelling to me, being that it would be a hard pill to swallow back home for the families of the casualties there, being that there is no direct reason for the involvement of Korea in this war, the different language would also pose a far from irrelevant issue. Furthermore it downplays Russian capacity to solve their own issues, since Russia view this war as an internal affair, and an external help of 10 thousand men would likely be seen as a sort of.cry for help or some weakness of Russia. Therefore I have a hard time believing it, not impossible, but looks unlikely to me.
And I’ve been hearing that they are claming that folks from certain regions of Russia which have different ethnic traces, that can be mistaken by Asian, are being reported as north Korean
But energy is free capitalists don’t give free shit, confusion ensues
