Thank you for putting together a serious and well thought out response. I hope they read the linked post in full.

The Maoist uprising against the landowners was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, resulting in an almost completely equal redistribution of land among peasants

There is a specter haunting lemmy

Lmao what? They are telling their users to be nice to others and not break the rules of other instances

No problem, yeah, every once in a while there is another researcher who is claimed to be a “Chinese Spy”, though it has seemingly slowed down after multiple cases turned out false. Just another part of the latest red scare.

The per capita electricity consumption will likely increase in the coming years, but compared to developed nations it is still low. Developing storage tech will be important for everyone as wind and solar are so weather dependent. Hope they figure it out, China’s development of solar production has already been a boon to cheaper solar panels in the world.

I really hope so, but as in China, it will require massive state funding and direction that I’m just not sure the US is willing to commit to. The US makes so much money from fossil fuel it would require taking a hatchet to a part of the economy that pays lobbyists and politicians handsomely.

You can look up Trump’s China Initiative, it’s technically “ended” but seeing as they have arrested researchers since I think it’s “ended” in the way Biden has ended other trump programs. I’m on my phone, but here are some things to look at:

Keep in mind months after this article was published, Tao’s case was determined to not be “espionage”. Here is his wiki: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feng_“Franklin”_Tao

Here is another example: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/wrongfully-accused-spying-china-professor-wins-appeal-sue-government-rcna86109

You can google related terms and find other examples. Some more dubious than others.

They’ve already done this to any academics/researchers who are from China

You were right to ban them, I don’t understand why they aren’t still banned

I deeply care about human rights

Must be one of the most nebulous and abstract things you can stand for. What rights? The right to die on the street? The right to monopoly?

That will show Putler!!!
