Trump's Stargate returns to Hollywood

 During Trump's inauguration, he lined the first row with the tech billionaires and announced a US$500b AI infrastructure project called Stargate. This project lasted one day when China released the DeepSeek app that cost US$5.5m, yes millions not billions, to develop. This new app makes a mockery of all the billion dollar American AI apps and the multi million dollar salaries of the CEOs of these companies.

China is telling Trump and the Americans that AI apps could be developed very cheaply and Trump needs not waste US$500b to build the infrastructure. At most 10% or less would do the job. Trump should therefore return the script to Hollywood, oops to the tech billionaire with vested interest in spending big money.

For the last few years. the tech CEOs have been playing a game of building a very expensive wall using the most expensive Nvidia chips around the AI industry. They have created a myth that only with plenty of expensive and advanced chips could one succeed in developing high performance AI apps like OpenAI, ChatGPT and so on. It was a lie that they created to con and deter other companies and developers from entering the industry. The multi billion dollar wall is their barrier to entry into the game, keeping small and financially weak participants out of the game. This is how they want to dominate and monopolize the industry for themselves. The hype was to throw in billions after billions to frighten off aspiring developers and companies. Another way of looking at it is that they did not have a clue of what AI is all about, thinking that it is so complex and only billions of dollars can make it work.

DeepSeek called their bluff. It required only a fraction of the billions to develop a comparable app that is just as good and better for the mass market. And DeepSeek even make its app available for free, open source, to undercut what the tech giants were trying to do to monopolise the industry. All the aspiring developers and companies are rushing in to develop their own apps with cheaper and less advanced chips like DeepSeek. The game is now open to all and sundry, and DeepSeek is showing them how to do it. 

With one stroke, the lies of the big tech CEOs were exposed. They might be able to con Trump but not the tech geeks. Now they have nowhere to hide and looking not only stupid but have to answer for the billions they have spent on something that could be so cheap. Trump would have to revise his US$500b budget or he would look foolish. No one would give him that kind of money when the truth is out. Trump must be furious. How dare the tech CEOs lied to him and made a fool of him. US$500b is now looking so ridiculous to talk about. His Stargate should be called Stardust.

The benefits of BRI and BRICS versus useless world organisations created by the AngloSaxons

 Now we should know that the BRI is not a creation of the Whites. BRICS is also not a creation of the Whites. And the Whites have been demonizing these two bodies with fabrication and disinformation, because they are outside their control.

The Anglo-Saxon Whites have been fabricating the narrative that the aid provided by China via the BRI for infrastructure development is a debt trap. However, most recipients of the aid have expressed a totally different perspective, welcoming such aid as a great help for them to progress with infrastructures to show. Who is telling the truth and who is just promoting disinformation? Do we believe the jealous saboteurs', having nothing to do with those aid, but just throwing spanners into the works or the beneficiaries of those infrastructures tied to the aid? Is the USA and the West really that caring and concern, worrying about other country's debt?

BRICS is facing the same Anglo-Saxon demonization. China is the biggest economy in BRICS and the USA, and the West are alleging that all BRICS does is giving China added avenues to influence and benefiting from the bloc. They are not happy with China diverting more trade within and among more BRICS countries at the expense of the USA and EU. The fact that trade within BRICS countries is done outside the US$ is even more profound for the Anglo-Saxon White countries. It is a de-dollarization move pure and simple.

Talking about all the World Bodies, the UN is practically a lame duck in dealing with the Gaza situation, totally brushed aside by Netanyahu. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency or UNRWA have just been given the ultimatum to leave Jerusalem by 30th January, which means it cannot work to bring relief to Palestinian without co-ordination with Israel. They could suffer Israeli attacks at will.

The ICJ and ICC are practically useless entities in the eyes of the world, not daring to do anything about the war crimes committed by USA and UK leaders in Iraq. That it was an illegal war based on fabricated evidence and lies at the UN, dragging the rest of the world into the conflict, is an even bigger crime against humanity.

America is an authoritative regime disguised as a democracy by lying to its people

 That is also what I want to say. The two parties, Democrats and Republicans are just the right and left hands of the Deep State, ruling USA with policies culled from the same playbook.

The USA voters undoubtedly do not know that they are voting for the same Evil hiding behind the throne, controlling the two parties and having them to carry out policies that favor the super-rich and making them richer. The super rich are among those behind the scenes, making up the Deep State and it is just a matter of you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours, taking turns to cannibalize the ordinary USA voters who are none the wiser. It was only after migrating to Rednote from Tik Tok that they realized what they had been missing after all the decades of sacrifices.

How is the USA Government going to explain the differences between the Chinese living standards in China and their own citizen's alarming discomfort upon realizing that they had been lied to all those years? It must come as a great shock for the USA voters to know that they are not really any better than the Chinese in China by a long shot in almost everything, except having the right to vote.

No equipment to fight LA fire but lots of weapons for Israel and Ukraine

 The USA has no firefighting equipment left to fight fires, but lots of weapons for Israel and Ukraine. Are those people in Los Angeles, whose homes have been destroyed, beginning to have an interest in listening to the truth or still content to swallow all the lies?

USA citizens now have to be aware that their interest is inconsequential compared to Israel and Ukraine and all the pampering directed at the top 1%.
What is the use of their vote if they cannot elect a government that have their interest to take care of, instead of caring for more support for Israel and Ukraine and taking care of the top 1%?

What is the use of touting about having 'freedom' when they are not even have any choice to choose what they want to spend their money on, like buying cheap EVs made in China?

What is the use of touting about being able to criticize their own government, when all they get in return is a government turning a deaf ear to their cries, despite being given all the avenues to criticize. There is now a narrative being push out that the Chinese have no avenues to criticize the government. One commentator asked the question of why the Chinese people even need to criticize their government when that government is working all the while to improve their lives - providing great infrastructures like high-speed rails, bridges over difficult terrains, excellent roads for them to have an easier life, providing affordable healthcare and hospitalization, providing cheap education for its citizens, providing cheap groceries and keeping cost of living very low.

Ukraine War - Conman Trump running out of ideas to coerce Putin

 Now we are seeing Trump being cornered with his boasting about settling the Ukraine War within 24 hours of him taking office. Today is his fourth day in office and Trump is having to crack his head to wriggle his way out. We know, and Trump knows that a 24-hour peace settlement is an impossibility and just a fantasy that only Trump can think of. But perhaps with his bullshitting and conman experience, having conned others to believe in his integrity after six bankruptcies, Trump still believes he has what it takes to carry out another massive con job.

Trump is not even aware what Putin wants in Ukraine and goes on to promote himself as if he is Almighty God and able to do a miracle, bringing an end to the three-year war.

Looking at Trump sitting at his table on Channel News American, with dozens of 'Executive Orders' covering his table, waiting for his signature, I would think he might be having a whale of a time signing them and gloating - 'Sign baby sign'. It is just ink and paper only, LOL.

Now it looks like Trump is cooking up another distraction to cover his earlier boast, which is trying to coerce Putin into allowing NATO troops to move closer to Moscow in Ukraine. That is precisely what Putin is against. By threatening more sanctions hoping to make Putin agree, the Russians are practically telling Trump to bring it on. What can the USA do about tariffs when Russia is not selling to the USA? Russia is already decoupled from the USA!

What other more harmful sanctions can Trump think of that have not already been used against Russia? What the USA and the West wanted to seize from Russia have already been seized. And the rest of the world have been given a valuable stark lesson in trusting the USA and the Europeans and the consequence thereof.

The USA and EU are practically scraping the bottom of the barrel to find any more meaningful sanctions left to use against Russia. They probably have now to resort to fabricating measure just like in Iraq to turn global opinion against Russia, which is no longer going to work. The rest of the world have learnt a bitter lesson - Once bitten, twice shy.
