Kjarnorkustyrrjöld er vinsæl

Þessi er með þá kenningu að Kínverjar séu bara 800 milljónir, en ekki 1.400 milljónir, eins og CCP segir.

Það sem ég held að hafi gerst, og það ansi skyndilega, er að 1 barns farsinn hafi vitrast þeim.  Og velmegun, á sama tíma.

Fyrir kóvitleysu, þá voru X margir kínverjar á milli 13-50.  Eftir kóvitleysu eru þeir 18-55 ára.  Og færri, eftir því.  Og það er sáralítið endurnýjun, ekki næg til þess að standa undir endurnýjun, sem er nauðsynleg til þess að hafa fólk úti á götu.

menn hætta að nenna að væflast um úti á g-tu eftir fertugt, og ef voða fáir fæddust fyrir 13-18 árum, þá eru bara fáir til þess að taka við.

En já, það er örugglega rétt hjá henni að Kínverjar eru færri en 1.400 milljónir.

"Macron said he is opening a "strategic debate" on possibly extending France's nuclear umbrella to all of Europe - a role currently played by US nukes stationed in NATO countries. He claimed in the televised address that unless Putin is defeated in Ukraine, he will threaten other European countries with invasion. 

Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk, whose country holds the EU’s rotating presidency, declared that "we must seriously consider this proposal.".

Lithuania too decided to take the opportunity to signal escalation. Lithuania’s President Gitanas NausÄ—da praised Macron's proposal as a "very interesting idea.""

"Europe has added its own pressure on Zelenskyy as Germany’s ministry of defence admits it can’t supply more materiel to Ukraine either as it’s out of stock. 

That underlines the need for the German announcement on infrastructure investment and rearmament yesterday, which saw 10-year Bund yields rise 31bp on the day, their worst performance since 1997. EUR jumped.

This is going to come at a vast cost. If you think a 31bp rise in Bunds captures the scale of shocks involved in a soft-power Europe trying to set its own future in a hard-power world then you spend too much time in soft-power circles. For starters, the FT op-eds today that ‘Europe must trim its welfare state to build a warfare state’:"

"“Just listen to some of the appalling waste we have already identified,” Trump said after highlighting DOGE, led by Elon Musk. He then listed off several examples of how the federal government has wasted U.S. taxpayer dollars.

“…$22 billion from HHS to provide free housing and cars for illegal aliens. $45 million for Diversity Equity and Inclusion scholarships in Burma. $40 million to improve the social and economic inclusion of sedentary migrants,” Trump began, adding, “Nobody knows what that is,” triggering laughs in the chamber.

“…$8 million to promote LGBTQI+ plus in the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of,” he said, prompting a smile from Vice President JD Vance. “$60 million for indigenous peoples and Afro-Colombian empowerment in Central America. $60 million.”

“…$8 million for making mice transgender,” he continued, reminding Americans that this is “real.”"

He said the fallout began with the fracture of the social contract after the political establishment in the UK tried to subvert the Brexit vote.

Subsequent years have brought about a “destruction of legitimacy” as a result of successive governments’ open border policy and their inability to protect children from grooming gangs, in addition to a two-tier justice system presided over by a highly-politicised judiciary."
