Shame the website isn't multilingual

I like this new Chinese warfare. Releasing free AI models to undermine US firms, not letting US buy their rare earth minerals opening up a YouTube competitor.
These are all hurting the people wo are leeching the money out of the middle class, and making laws to keep 'em poor and stupid.
I'm not looking forward the upcoming economic crash, and the whole climate change thing happening.... But we all had it coming.

Making their own DRAM, GPUs and CPUs. Making their own EUV lithography machines. Leading the world in solar panel manufacture and deployment. Competing with the western EV market, in the west. Owning a part of just about every supply chain in manufacturing of just about every product.

It's easy to think that this is a deliberate strategy to undermine the US and the western hemisphere and position themselves to be the next world superpower, but it could also be explained just by the slow and continual collapse of capitalism causing everyone else to fall behind.

Honestly I am just applauding every time a new contender shows up.
Eu is trying to step away from US monopoly products. And trying to do stuff on their own.
China taking over the best supercomputer.

And while capitalism is one of the worst thing invented on the planet. I'm hesitant to say China's system is the way to go.
The Eastern Block wasn't happy with the Mother Russia - if the system is forced without any smarts behind it - it will just sour every survivor's thinking.
Not that Ice is any better than Gestapo or KGB. It is sad to see patterns repeating themselves.

Yes I wouldn't want anyone to think that my comment is praising their authoritarianism, surveillance panopticon, cultural genocide of ethnic minorities, extra-national police stations, hacking of critical infrastructure etc.

Just that when you're competing against late stage capitalism, the bar for success is set very low.

YouTube could use some competition. Creators who publish to multiple platforms could also use an alternative, especially if the alternative doesn't censor pro-Palestine and leftist material as YouTube does.

China in general seem intend on attacking/undermining every single stronghold of the shtty 'Epstein' Oligarchs - just like me.. Go go China !!

You know, I'd love to say f-ck you "Googol", but the ladder will be probably exactly / less caring about privacy.

Even if that’s true, at least BiliBili is just a video social media site. Unlike Alphabet, it doesn’t control half of the world’s internet services and the great majority of the mobile phone market.
