They’re so incompetent. I think it’d be wonderful if Ford and other U.S. companies could do tech transfer from some of the best EV manufacturers out there. I guess that makes me Xi Jinping

As is often the case with Western narratives about China, these memes are not really meant to paint an accurate picture of life in the country. Instead, they function as a projection of “all of the undesirable aspects of American life—or the decay of the American dream,” says Tianyu Fang @tfa.ng

Engaging with #Xiaohongshu ( #RED / #REDnote / #LittleRedBook): A Reading List. @qianhuang.bsky.social and I curated this crowdsourced reading list on Xiaohongshu - qianxeniahuang.super.site/resources/xi... We're happy to add more suggestions! Hosted by Qian to make it accessible in China.
no one in china ever calls mao’s quotations “little red book.” the common nickname is hongbaoshu (红宝书, “red treasure book”) and not xiaohongshu (小红书, “little red book”) 📕
people talk about how xiaohongshu literally translates to “little red book” (and therefore communist) but they don’t know that the original little red book isn’t even called the “little red book” in chinese
according to this 2019 interview, the red in xiaohongshu/rednote was a reference to the color of stanford graduate school of business and bain capital, where the founder studied and worked, not chairman mao m.36kr.com/p/1724258762...

Trying to keep a thread of questions arising from the end of birthright citizenship in the US.
1. Is a US passport definitive proof of citizenship?
2. Is an expired passport proof of citizenship when that passport was valid?
3. Is birth in the US legal entry for adjustment of status?
