This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.
This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.
Rules:
- No bigotry, anti-communism, pro-imperialism or ultra-leftism (anti-AES)
- We support indigenous liberation as the primary contradiction in settler colonies like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel
- If you post an archived link (excluding archive.org), include the URL of the original article as well
- Unless it's an obvious shitpost, include relevant sources

That’s if those products aren’t slapped with insane import costs or bans like BYD cars or Hawei phones.
Even then the international market will be saturated with Chinese products. The price for amd/nvidia will have to come down to compete.
Again, why would the price have to come down in the US, Europe, and Western aligned nations if AMD and NVidia have government enforced monopolies? Other nations aren’t importing computer parts to that insane of a degree either so the market would hardly be saturated in the nations where Chinese products aren’t banned.
Are you aware of what happened with BYD cars? Why wouldn’t the same thing just happen? The global price for electric cars hasn’t fallen substantially at all.
EV prices have dropped dramatically just not in the west. The price of EVs in China has plummeted and they make up half of EV sales.
The difference is that western countries have their own car industries. They have tariffs as defensive measure to protect local industry. That is why westerners don't see that drop in EV prices... yet. (canada just dropped its ev tariff from 100% to 6 and europe is in negotiations to lower theirs.)
usa is the only country with a GPU industry to protect. So only they would put tariffs on GPUs.
Do you not think that the US wouldn’t strong arm Europe and the West's puppet states? Why wouldn’t they? The US would absolutely cash it’s political power to prevent China from gaining market share.
Also of course EVs plummeted in China, but the price is relatively stable worldwide.
