Based off your earlier comment mentioning something about local residents unable to buy from businesses nearby, which I'm guessing to be because they're too expensive, it sounds to me more like a problem with private development/gentrification than a problem with the concept of 15-minute cities itself.
It's called "antisemitism" because the ones that coined the term viewed Jews and Arabs as the same, and wanted to rid Europe of these "Semitic" influences. They also wanted to sound scientific about their Jew-hatred so they invented this term rooted in the trendy race science of the day.
I don't know of this is true, but my headcanon is that the comparisons were originally made with no ill intent. iirc the first ever instance wasn't even Xi+Obama, but Xi poking out of a sedan's roof during a military parade, which was juxtaposed to a toy figure of Winnie in a car.
People then joked that these comparisons would be censored, started making them with that in mind and when some egregious ones were deleted, it became a self-fulfilling prophecy. Censorship of (some) comparisons to The Pooh then got exaggerated into censorship of him in general.
Again, I don't know if this is true and I don't want to sift through muck online to look into it.

The system achieved 6GHz frequency tuning within 180 microseconds – hundreds of times faster than a blink of an eye. Its single-channel data rates exceeded 100 Gbps.
This implies 100 Gbps was also achieved with the 6GHz frequency.
Anything higher is for industrial applications, as examples the article says that satellites need 30GHz and that "future applications like holographic surgery" would require 100GHz.
Finnish Air Force plans to remove swastikas from unit flags
Back then they only changed the emblem of the Air Force as a whole, but units within the Air Force still feature the old emblem on their flags. The Air Force Academy also uses a swastika on its own emblem on top of that.
This is my general stance as well, but I didn't want to get too involved in a discussion I don't feel qualified for, so I kept my initial question brief.
For the Hexbear post on this article the user Xiaohongshu wrote a long post claiming "local governments are the landlords", featuring their common talking points of local governments strained for cash after the real estate bubble burst and that Chinese economists are all neoliberals and therefore unable to solve this.
I've wanted to ask Lemmygrad's opinion on this user for a while. To what is their pessimism warranted in your view? Do you take issue with (their interpretation of) their observations?
