Lmao there’s a guy who usually posts a long response to these “subsidies” claims bullshit, but I think they got into a pissing match with a mod in the comments and got banned lmao.

Jist of it is: China’s subsidies are negligible compared to the US, and what they’ve actually done is created a competitive domestic market with a large number of players. Unless you think Chinese people are all puppets, even if China (as a country) owns the industry it would not prevent internal competition that drives down prices. Moreover, China does not offer per-unit subsidies on export. In fact, Chinese EVs exported to Europe are something like 40% more expensive than domestically for the same model.

In this case BYD lacks a local factory and their profit margins are significant enough that they don’t maintain region-specific frame SKUs IIRC.

FWIW the Chinese market is one of the biggest for Volvo because Chinese consumers care about (perceived) safety.

hey shut up we’re in a china bad brigade

Do you think this is a Ford Pinto?

Edit: given that you mention crumple zones… A Tesla Cybertruck?

Oxford PV set up a 100MW plant back in 2021… But that was with efficiency barely better than traditional mono (23-26.81% for mono vs. 28.6% for perovskite).

The value proposition was never there before, but it might be now…

It makes sense now how antivaxxing went from a fringe movement to a cornerstone of right-wing ideology lol

nekandro ,

uhh guys isn’t this like really bad

nekandro OP ,

Israel is the single state most responsible for antisemitism since its foundation.

The Comac/Bombardier C919 is so cool man. It’s really the successor to Bombardier’s commercial airline initiatives that got nuked by Boeing and the DOJ.

Seriously. Fuck Boeing and fuck the DOJ.

nekandro OP ,

BRICS, believe it or not, is not the world police.

Rise up, we who refuse to be slaves…

Shit headline for a very scary story

nekandro ,

But at what cost?

nekandro OP ,

They’re stealing our IP!

r/worldnews has always been astroturfed by State Department mouthpieces…

If this is an Axios article, why not just post Axios?

PPP GDP/capita is the metric for living standards, PPP GDP is more a metric of domestic output (in terms of the intrinsic value of goods produced).

nekandro OP ,

Yes, noble Japan, honouring the 2 million noble war criminals who died attempting to subjugate its neighbourhood in Asia and responsible for the massacre of millions of Chinese, Koreans, Indonesians, Malays, …

nekandro OP ,

Every day the US pushes us closer to nuclear war.

In case anyone was wondering why China is rapidly building up their nuclear weapons stockpile, this is why. The US cannot stop their Cold War-era antics. They must always be superior. They must always be able to get the first say and the final say.

China’s nuclear doctrine is very clear: don’t launch nukes at them and they won’t respond with nukes, but if you do then nothing is held back. No first use, just like India.

NATO’s policy of allowing for first use stems from fears of being conventionally outgunned by the Soviets and now the Chinese. If anything, this should tell you where China’s military capabilities lie.

nekandro ,

Idk the US does that pretty well all on their own

nekandro OP ,

This is even more extreme than Douyin’s arrangement with the Chinese government lmao

It’s so funny

nekandro OP ,

I mean… These terms exceed what Douyin does in China. It’s actually an insane level of concessions.

nekandro OP ,

China obviously has something to gain, but it’s also obvious that they have more to gain from being honest in an overt publication like this than they do from being dishonest.

nekandro OP ,

It’s an overt publication from the Chinese government. What reason do they have to lie? That would harm the credibility of the Chinese government, which is something that’s pretty strong in the Global South.

nekandro OP ,

Oh no! Not the DPP party line!

The DPP, known as the government where MPs steal bills they don’t want passed. Yay.
