Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.

If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.

Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.

Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.

Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.

Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

Did China not get the memo that is was supposed to collapse?

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 47 points 2 years ago (1 children)

According to all the soyfacing finance bros on YouTube, affordable housing IS the collapse. After all, how are those poor browns supposed to build wealth through equity now! Housing abundance kills Muh invoostment.

It must be so nice to live in a functional country

[–] Pentacat@hexbear.net 32 points 2 years ago

If the US had the manufacturing capacity that China has, it would be sending $42 billion a month to Ukraine and the Zionist entity. I sleep easier knowing the US is dysfunctional in certain ways, because it was built with a fatal design flaw that causes it to bring only death and destruction.

but at what c-

oh, 42 billion.

For comparison US and EU have sunk easily 4 times that in Ukraine.

China is spending less here than a single aid package to Israel from the USA.

Pls sir, Mr. Xi, may I move to China and live in one of these houses?

Honestly, I wouldn't mind having my surplus value extracted anywhere near as much if I knew that it was going to building communism/socialism instead of some rich asshole's pocket

Is there a paywalless version of this article? If it's Chinese version is also suffice since I can read in Chinese. Needless to say, this new is especially encouraging to see when it's coming from a well-respected press in China. Even as an observer that is critical of China government, it is an especially good move from the them, just that I'm still hesitate to trust their local counterpart. As I've learnt more and more about China history after the overthrown of KMT, local bureaucrats always find a way to sneak pass through the legislation and suggestion from the central committee and fuck it up either for show or their own benefits. I wish this time it'll result in a successful financial move cuz I'm really worry about local citizens of their financial stress after the crash of major housing developers.
