经济学人是偏左的 我至今记得他们在2006年的杂志上说中国的制造业 那句话 “中国企业啥都能造,啥都能模仿,除了造不出他们的妈” 当年默大妈大量引进移民 经济学人那个捧,以” exodus" 的标题和背景 极尽赞美之词
但是 以惯例 经济学人杂志是比较权威的风向标 等待大选结果吧
这帮臭老九,竟然用川普的高关税来说是。既然关税那么不好,拜登4年为什么不撤除,反而是变本加厉的打贸易战,不断加税?
这帮所谓经济学家,撒谎没底线。
这种杂志整体偏右 dear
川粉连川粉都做得来,还怕几个小小的标签么?笑话!
应该是经济方面偏右,社会议题上偏左。 他们自称classic liberals
The economist不知道多少次讲维族再教育营了。右派好像不太在乎这个。
总体来说还是蛮中肯的。是我觉得少数值得推荐的刊物
