Hi comrades, this is the most realistic story about aliens invading our planet:

Governments of North America reported sighting 20 UFOs over the sky in the morning. This day, a big spaceship entered the orbit and 10 disk shaped UFOs started descending from it. All Western countries panicked and the entire NATO invoked article 5 and mobilized its military. The US government put nuclear ICBMs on high alert. Everyone kept wondering what will happen to humans. Will they enslave us? Or will they destroy our species and use our planet for resources?

After 2 hours, the UFOs finally landed. A group of 4 green-skinned black-eyed unarmed aliens walked up to the nearest TV reporter. The entire world fell silent. All people were shocked to see a far more advanced civilization. After looking at this reporter, one alien said:

"Hi! We came here to establish diplomatic relations. We became socialist a millenium ago and forgot how capitalism works. Do you want win-win cooperation? We would like to invest in your infrastructure. You can do basically anything you want with what we build, we just want a new planet to do business with. If you want to, here is our SpaceMail address and the device to access cosmic Wi-Fi. Also, we opensourced our most advanced AI system ever. This is a 100000 page DIY manual how to set it up. Sorry that it's so long, it just also happens to contain all the scientific knowledge that we gained to make this thing, including our opensource advanced CPU. Why do we care about you? It's because we value diversity that empowers us with multiple viewpoints, and we support alien rights. There is enough space for us all. Thank you for listening, good bye"

The aliens went back to their UFOs. After two hours, they reached the spaceship and it teleported back home.

Hexbear.net is probably going to be sold to a complete stranger, and this is a big OpSec issue because there will be rare visitors who can be honeypotted into a malicious Hexbear clone. I think we need to request all mobile Lemmy apps to ban hexbear on the client code side. Or at least add the code to alert anyone connecting to Hexbear.net that it is not safe to visit this domain anymore

Edit: updated title

I escaped the Reddit regime a little while ago. I consider myself a marxist-leninist-MZT. Vegetarian and vegan for a few years. I've a lot of thoughts on how marxism and veganism are connected. Never wrote them down. I'd like to start smth like a club for marxist vegans to develop our own proletarian theory. Most vegan theory I found is either openly bourgeois (Francione is a literal TERF) or revisionist (anti-China, anarchist, libertarian). How about fixing this?

The Chinese gross domestic product is expected to pass the mark of US$18 trillion in 2024.

Reviewing China’s footprint in 2024, Xi said the economy has rebounded and is on an upward trajectory, with the national GDP expected to pass the mark of US$18 trillion and the country’s grain output surpassing 700 million tonnes.

He also noted that China has fostered new quality productive forces, and new business sectors, forms and models have kept emerging. For the first time, China has produced more than 10 million new energy vehicles in a year, and breakthroughs have been made in fields including integrated circuit, artificial intelligence and quantum communications.
