Japan isn’t “going extinct”—it’s being bled dry by corporate serfdom and U.S. occupation. A shrinking, overworked, and underpaid population isn’t a crisis—it’s the system working as intended. Here’s why Japan’s decline is no accident.
Japan’s birthrate crisis isn’t a mystery. It’s the intended consequence of an economic and political structure built to serve corporate elites and maintain U.S. hegemony. Let’s break it down. 1/12
Japan’s birthrate has collapsed to 1.2, far below replacement. Deaths now outnumber births by a million per year. Over 30% of the population is elderly. The media cries extinction, but the real story is economic suffocation. 2/12
Young Japanese aren’t avoiding marriage and children by choice. They’re locked out of homeownership, crushed by stagnant wages, and forced into a brutal work culture that leaves no time or money for families. 3/12
The root cause? Corporatism. Japan’s economy isn’t built for its people—it’s built for keiretsu mega-corporations that hoard wealth, suppress wages, and demand total worker loyalty. The result? A generation with no future. 4/12
The West blames “cultural issues” for Japan’s demographic collapse, but it’s pure economic reality. When people can’t afford homes, stable jobs, or childcare, they don’t have kids. It’s the economy, stupid. 5/12
If Japan wanted to fix this, it would raise wages, cap rent prices, and dismantle its workaholic corporate structure. But it won’t—because Japan’s economy isn’t designed to serve its workers. 6/12
And let’s not ignore the geopolitical elephant in the room: Japan remains the most occupied U.S. puppet state on the planet, with over 50,000 American troops still stationed there. 7/12
Unlike Germany, which regained some sovereignty, Japan is locked into permanent vassal status. Its economic and security policies are dictated by Washington, ensuring Japan remains dependent and weak. 8/12
Any real effort to restructure Japan’s economy—whether through labor protections, reindustrialization, or tech self-sufficiency—would be seen as a threat by the U.S. Just ask South Korea, which got slapped with chip restrictions the moment it showed independence. 9/12
Immigration won’t save Japan either. Unlike the U.S. or EU, Japan’s rigid social structure and ethnic homogeneity make mass immigration politically impossible. Even if it embraced it, where would the workers come from? 10/12
Japan isn’t going extinct—it’s becoming a shrinking vassal state, trapped between an aging population, corporate serfdom, and a geopolitical leash held tightly by Washington. 11/12
The Western media pretends to be shocked by Japan’s decline, but this was always the plan. A weak, dependent Japan suits the U.S. just fine. Don’t expect real reform—expect managed stagnation. 12/12

Zelensky isn’t clueless—he’s a puppet in a geopolitical game orchestrated by U.S. neoliberal elites. The embarrassing truth? He’s pretending to be a hero while his masters play a dangerous global power struggle.
It’s been a long time since Maidan Square, where Victoria Nuland’s cookies helped fuel regime change in Ukraine. Fast forward to today, and Volodymyr Zelensky is the new puppet, playing a role in a much larger geopolitical game. 1/8
Vice President Vance and Trump didn’t hold back, confronting Zelensky on camera: “You have a huge shortage of soldiers, and you're making propaganda that everything is ok.” It was a moment of uncomfortable truth. 2/8
China claims to have built a jet fuel-powered engine for Mach 16 flight—faster than any known aircraft. If true, this rewrites the rules of war, rendering missile defenses obsolete. Game-changer or hype? Let’s break it down.
China's reported breakthrough in jet fuel-powered hypersonic engines reaching Mach 16 (~12,100 mph) could redefine aerospace and military strategy. If true, this technology surpasses all known scramjets, requiring extreme engineering advancements. 1/8
Tencent’s Hunyuan Turbo S just dropped, and it’s a full-throttle AI revolution. Forget Silicon Valley—China’s AI juggernaut is now faster, cheaper, and smarter. The race is over before it even started.
Tencent just launched Hunyuan Turbo S, and it’s not just faster—it’s a game-changer that leaves DeepSeek and OpenAI scrambling. If you thought China’s AI momentum was slowing down, think again. Tencent just hit full throttle. 1/7
Turbo S responds in under a second, making DeepSeek R1 look sluggish and OpenAI’s ChatGPT seem like dial-up. The real surprise? Tencent has slashed costs, making AI about efficiency and speed, not just intelligence. 2/7
OpenAI is in a crisis—its dependency on Nvidia just got undone by China’s DeepSeek. Now, OpenAI’s got nowhere to go but desperation. Let’s break down their crumbling options and how they’re about to get left behind. 🧵 1/6
OpenAI & Nvidia’s dog and pony show is officially over. Nvidia just cozied up to China’s DeepSeek, optimizing for efficiency while OpenAI is left holding the bag. So what’s OpenAI gonna do? Make its own GPU? LMAO. Let’s break down their terrible options. 1/6
Option 1: Keep Buying Nvidia Chips and Get Rekt
Nvidia’s prices are sky-high, DeepSeek is proving you don’t need them, and Microsoft is sick of bankrolling OpenAI’s dependence. This path = a financial death spiral. 2/6
Liang Meng-Song is the semiconductor genius who shaped TSMC, elevated Samsung, and is now driving SMIC to break U.S. sanctions. His journey is one of betrayal, ambition, and technological warfare. A deep dive into the man reshaping the global chip race.
Liang Meng-Song: The Rogue Genius Who Supercharged China’s Semiconductor Revolution. A thread. 1/18
Liang isn’t just a technologist—he’s a walking, breathing semiconductor warhead. Wherever he goes, the silicon frontier shifts. His story is one of genius, betrayal, geopolitical intrigue, and industrial warfare at the highest levels. 2/18
Despite having a fraction of NATO's budget, the DragonBear alliance of Russia and China outmaneuvers the West. The strategic partnership between Putin and Xi is reshaping global power while Western leaders stumble in political correctness.
The DragonBear Conundrum: Russia's minuscule $146 billion military budget is outmatched by the U.S. and NATO's colossal defense spending. Despite this, Ukraine hasn't paraded in Red Square. 1/11
Why? Putin and Xi’s DragonBear alliance. Despite the West's bloated budgets, they’re outmaneuvered. China's economy fuels Russia's war machine, showing their strategic prowess. 2/11
