  • This is like worrying about Japanese investors buying a stadium, the article is very misleading because they would never employ writers who would explain why the US benefits from the global ruling class recycling its dollars into asset markets here. Basically, there is nowhere else to put it that won’t get left behind by the bubble and devalued.

    This isn’t Saudi Arabia buying the USA. This is one of the USA’s dogs getting a bone to chew on. Same with Qatar. Don’t be so shortsighted.

    But yes, China isn’t a threat to Americans. They literally want the quality of life of Americans to go up, and the financial leverage of the US to go down. The main thing stopping Americans from living a good life is the financial leverage of their middle class and elites. (Most private equity funds are managing retirements and pensions, which most workers do not have. Same deal with housing.)








  • XMPP, but also Delta Chat! The Webxdc apps for Delta work in XMPP client Cheogram despite there being no cross-compatibility between the networks. It can access ordinary email servers so long as they were not set up maliciously (Apple, M$, Gmail, etc). It can do a couple things XMPP cannot, but it’s not suitable for anyone outside close friends and family. I basically only use it for email, automation, and other personal matters. XMPP is for general use and can replace Discord. The Movim project looks very cool they have a community here also join their XMPP chat. Cheogram services can connect to the regular phone network.
