Free speech gave the USA Trump.
Not at all. The things that Trump says are acceptable to the ruling class of America. Even without free speech (which the US doesn't actually have), Trump would never be the victim of censorship laws.

I know I know. It's just a joke. I also unfortunately am living in the same region which is why they are the first European company that came to mind.
because post-scarcity will be in sight.
In a meaningful sense, with climate change and resource depletion, even with a world socialist government, post-scarcity won't be in sight for a few decades. We'll need those purely to eliminate our carbon footprint.
And all the libs and the socdems are acting like brave little warriors who will die for… For what?
ASML and fascism, what else?
The quality of the goods would go up, but cheaper prices and higher quantities is debatable.
Imperialism allows for a massive over consumption of goods/services in the core. Maybe over time, production in the core will return and consumption will reach its old heights (assuming the environmental question can be solved).
In the short term, after the elimination of the military apparatus of imperialism, it will be very difficult to convince poorer countries to keep sending so much surplus value to the west, or for them to continue to over export at bargain bin prices.
why does the West constantly send its warships to China’s coast and into China’s territorial waters (Taiwan strait)?
If we allowed normal, uninterrupted development without the constant threat of war, how would you afford your PS5?
Ever thought about my video games and treats, Tankie?
I didn't make the title. I just put the headline of the article as it was written.
Turns out it’s legal
Why would that be relevant?
The actual unique part about it is that China seems to be turning around the logic of encirclement on its head.
US allied forces periodically conduct similar exercises near the coast of China (with build up of weapons as well), using the justification that they can do whatever they want in international waters.
Even Australia sends helicopters and other military equipment off the Chinese coast. The Chinese have decided to give Australia a taste of its own medicine.
My God the failed novelism is really strong in this one. Article takes so long to get to the rucking point and meanders about stupid nonsense.
particularly in the age of Donald Trump?
Tf does this mean and what does it have to do with aircraft carriers.
In the absence of wars to fight, US carrier groups spend much of their time doing this, learning how to operate together with allied navies.
Didn't you guys recently use a carrier group to help Israel commit a genocide? Or was that a different class of warships?
This one was smaller, but was the first in the Pacific involving a French carrier for more than 40 years.
French warships (and ships from 18 other countries) encircling China in the Pacific is what these people consider as a defensive alliance.
the one of Trump with its now familiar pugilistic glower.
smh. What I mean by failed novelism.
Downsize these carriers, to carry only helicopters or planes which can land and take off vertically as many countries have done, and you end up with vessels which are even more vulnerable.
Completely besides the point. In war, more important than having weapons that can't be destroyed (they certainly can be) os having weapons that you can afford to have destroyed.
If it only takes a few lucky shots to disable almost 10% of your power projection at a time, and your opponent can take hundreds, thousands of shots, you are absolutely cooked.
Three new Ford-class nuclear carriers, the next generation after the Carl Vinson, are currently under construction, although two will not be in service until the next decade. The plan is to complete ten of this new class of carrier
Great plan. I'm sure you will complete these ships in time for your war against China.
I wouldn't mind losing my job to something this cute
Belarus has almost half as many maternal deaths per live birth as the country just 2 spots below. What kind of Juche Necromancy are they using?

Ok that's actually pretty funny. My friend was talking about Soros as if he was a nazi collaborator infiltrating Jewish societies to out people. Technically, he was part of the Judenrat established by the Nazis, but he was forced to join at the age of 13 and made to hand out deportation notices (what I'm seeing in Wikipedia).
