It’s actually not kind and empathetic to ascribe false consciousness to people who are very clearly telling you why they voted for the anti-immigrant party. It’s just condescending.

The Recurring Speed Camera Discourse is a bit exasperating really because, look, we all know what's actually happening is people just want to be able to commit the pertinent crimes and don't like being punished for it, but people come up with obvious post-hoc pseudo-woke rationalisations for this.

postmodern right racism betrays a lack of confidence, in 1900 it was "white man's burden" but they recognize the West has nothing to offer the world so now it's "defend our culture"

"shrill and inflexible" is not a good foundation for tolerance, since it does not offer one of the fruits of open-mindedness, intimacy

Short reports are admittedly funny reading. $BE hntrbrk.com/investigatio...

That growth story rests on a supply chain claim that Bloom's CEO has made at least five times since February 2025, on earnings calls, to Semafor, on a podcast — and onstage with The Wall Street Journal last month. The promise: Bloom has "no China supply chain" and is "not dependent on China for scandium," the rare earth at the core of each Bloom fuel cell. Bloom’s claim matters because Beijing now requires an export license for every shipment of scandium leaving China. If Bloom depends on Chinese scandium, China holds an off-switch on Bloom — and on the American data centers that may one day use its power.

The problem: Bloom is, in fact, reliant on C5 Chinese scandium, according to global trade data, Chinese corporate filings, satellite imagery, and Hunterbrook's messages with Bloom's suppliers in China. Hunterbrook traced four separate China-linked routes into Bloom's supply chain — scandium oxide shipped directly to its Delaware plant, plus scandium-bearing ceramics and powders flowing through intermediaries in Thailand, Japan, and South Korea. A sales representative of Hunan Oriental Scandium — which claims over 50% of the global market for fuel-cell-grade scandium oxide — told Hunterbrook: "We are also BE's largest supplier of scandium." Asked how the material reaches U.S. customers under Beijing's controls: "Not exported directly." Hunan Oriental was featured at Bloom’s May supplier conference as one of three Chinese scandium-linked suppliers. One received Bloom’s “Impact Supplier Award.”
