China has begun building its first "super plant" for reusable rockets in Hangzhou. The $740M facility, led by private firm Space Epoch, will produce up to 25 medium-to-large rockets annually, designed for sea recovery. This aims to slash launch costs by 75% and marks a major step in scaling up China's commercial space sector.https://news.cgtn.com/news/2026-01-09/China-breaks-ground-on-its-first-sea-recovery-reusable-rockets-plant-1JN0TIKow9O/p.html#china #space #technology

The "Chinese colonialism" narrative is a projection by West. China has no military bases, no regime change operations, no currency control, or structural adjustment programs in Africa.Africa's debt to Western creditors is 3x that owed to China, at 2x the interest. Equating China's commercial activities with the genocidal history and current coercive power of Western imperialism is empirically false and trivializes actual colonial violence.https://jasonhickel.substack.com/p/is-china-doing-colonialism-in-africa#china #africa #geopolitics

Linux desktop adoption is growing significantly, driven by Windows 10's end-of-life, user resistance to Windows 11's AI/interface changes, and hardware upgrade costs. Data suggests Linux's true share, including ChromeOS and "unknown" OSes, may exceed 11% in the US. Key drivers include gaming viability, improved ease of use, and privacy concerns. Linux is shifting from a hobbyist OS to a pragmatic choice for users seeking an alternative to Microsoft's ecosystem.https://www.zdnet.com/article/why-people-keep-flocking-to-linux-in-2025-and-its-not-just-to-escape-windows#linux

ICE has secretly become a massive, unaccountable domestic intelligence and police force, operating under excessive secrecy as part of a politically charged "war," and its actions are causing a crisis within US law enforcement.https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/21-secret-ice-programs-revealed#usa #uspol #ice

The looming US annexation of Greenland is a calculated act of political symbolism. It serves to discipline European vassals through public humiliation, signalling a definitive shift from multilateral pretense to aggressive unilateralism. This move exposes the weakness and strategic dependence of Europe, accelerating the fragmentation of the American-led international order.https://dialecticaldispatches.substack.com/p/greenland-and-the-end-of-the-american#geopolitics #greenland #usa #europe #eu

The irony of the US using the fearmongering that the EU has been doing about Russia or China taking over Greenland to actually annex Greenland is delicious.#greenland #geopol #usa #eu

Mark Carney essentially said that the liberal rules based world order was a convenient lie everyone went along with because American hegemony opened up markets and sea lanes for them.After decades in which the imperialist neoliberal order was not even questioned in the West, less than three weeks into it 2026, Canada, one of the biggest US vassals is saying this. 😆 https://www.weforum.org/stories/2026/01/davos-2026-special-address-by-mark-carney-prime-minister-of-canada#canada #cdnpoli #geopolitics #liberalism #imperialism

This is peak western journalism in action. CNN paints Maduro as a paranoid liar for claiming that the CIA was trying to overthrow him, only to admit in the very next sentence that the CIA did, in fact, overthrow him.https://edition.cnn.com/2026/01/27/politics/cia-venezuela-foothold#politics #manufacturingconsent #uspol #usa #venezuela
