There will always be people who root against the home team. Every class had the one kid who wore his Orlando Magic jersey. But China? Look, if you don't like that America is racist, imperialist, and does not value human life, I understand that, but if those things are what are bother you, I have some exceedingly bad news about China.

China actually has a rather homogeneous society racially. Wrong again. Now if you want to talk XENOPHOBIC then you will get action. On both fronts

China is ethnically quite diverse, though yes it has come to be rather Han dominated under the PRC.

Evil and racist compared to what? Where has this utopian society existed where every person had exactly equal opportunity? That hasn't even existed in countries where race wasn't a factor. To say we are irredeemably racist is some stupid talking point developed by someone privileged enough to do "scholarship" for money. It's mostly divisive half truths that doesn't stand up to any scrutiny.

Well either it was a bad faith effort or an incompetent effort because right now China basically only has Taiwan, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong standing up to them. They are winning, we are losing. Trump made China a central campaign issue and is being resoundingly defeated, I cant tell whether its on purpose or not...but I dont care.

America is a fucking shithole but the least we could do is try and wield or colossal military might to save the places that haven't yet devolved into our unique brand of post-industrial hell.

Yea China has more official languages than any country aside from I think South Africa. Off the top of my head I cant remember which has more. Its definitely not an homogeneous society, that is a ridiculous notion.

No it isn't.

92% Han did not just happen in the last 75 years.

It's uncanny how often you attribute words, terms, and phrases to people that never actually used the language.

Actually it did. The power of communism.

Now go back to your panic room, boomer. We don't need your China love or fear bone around here. The least you could is shut the fuck up before you expire.

You're the one in here literally defending China as a racially harmonious society while they rape the women in the eastern half of the country so they'll give birth to mixed-Han children. What do you think they've been up to since Mao?

You don't even know what homogeneous means. If you did you would know that the notion as to whether they are a homogeneous society or not is anything but "ridiculous"

Quote:

The adjective homogeneous comes from the Greek homogenes, meaning “of the same kind” You can break down the root of the word further into two parts: homos, meaning “same,” and genos, meaning “kind, gender, race, stock.
” It sounds very scientific, but if you look around the table at home and everyone is eating a bowl of oatmeal, you could safely describe your family’s breakfast tastes as homogeneous.

Despite China’s vast size and population, China is rather homogeneous; because it has been largely isolated from the rest of the world – mountains to the east and south, oceans to the west and the wilds of Siberia to the north.


At some point you should be embarrassed by all of the misinformation. Most propagandist type rather are. See:
Cheap Charlie. Hawk. Chase. Seacrest. You. WFR. JLN
The list of people that just spout unsubstantiated bullshit around here is rather lengthy. Still doesn't keep all of the clapping seals from cheering this steady stream of misinformation. Got to get their daily fix of it I guess

Oh good, we trust PRC statistics now. Very nice, I'm sure the ethnic and racial minorities in the western part of the country are thoroughly represtened. Good work comrade, six social credits have been deposited into your account on behalf of Chairman Xi himself!

We don't have the means we had 4 months ago. We tapped out when the bat cough showed up. Hell, I tapped out. I see no way we can properly deal with them at this point. We're cooked. Just going to have to eat the Chinese shit sandwich from here on out.

Real moves are made with subtlety. From little acorns grow mighty oaks.

Expect to see more and more of this (business being moved from China to other areas) as the days pass:

Taiwan Chipmaker Announces US Factory as Apple Pledges to Expand Taiwan Investment - Semiconductor giant TSMC will invest $12 billion in a new Arizona chip plant, it announced Friday, while Apple will expand its Taiwan footprint.

When we finally tap into the potential that is Mexico for manufacturing, we will really have turned the corner.

Has anyone seen the New York Times spot where they run a bunch of lines on the screen? I think one is "it's not a Chinese virus." and I know one is "It's not a bioweapon."

I understand that you can't tell the American public that we were the victims of biological warfare (or even, more likely, the victims of biological-warfare experimentation that went catastrophically awry) or we will positively freak out, but I'm not sure that absolving China like this is a good idea, either. But whatever sells newspapers, gotta make sure Bret Stephens can keep writing op-eds called "Why Donald Trump Is Icky But You Should Vote For Him Anyway."

Is this a website scroll? The New York Times is team resistance. So if Trump goes after China, well the enemy of my enemy. It's treason to hide the origin of this virus.

Militarily the USA & Allies shits all over China. Its not even close, its so un-close that there wont even be a military confrontation because China has to submit to whatever demands are posed to them because even they know they are fucked.

But nobody can recognize the threat other than Taiwan and Japan. Now apparently Australia has taken notice, I'm guessing Singapore will soon. I really despise pop culture references, but its a lot easier to take Mordor seriously when you're in Gondor just watching the sky turn and orcs romping around everywhere.

The USA and Europe? Soft and weak. Europe doubly so than the USA, maybe the French will get fed up soon but the UK is even more pathetic than the USA from a foreign policy perspective.
