Why not? UK correctly recognises that the economic centre is shifting to Asia and it obviously wants to enter a high-quality trade agreement with them (as China also wants as well)

Now I am not expecting many benefits for the UK but it will still give them a seat on the table.

And most importantly, it will manage to stonewall any China attempts to influence the CPTPP.
With Australia, Japan, UK and Vietnam(behind the scenes) working together they will manage to counter a bit of China's power.

This is good news for the UK and even better for the US

I am pretty sure that the US is satisfied on how their lieutenant, UK, has been working so far. Great job!

UK actually started its own version of Pivot to Asia much earlier - back in 2015. It took the lead among western countries and joined AIIB, against US wishes. It embraced with what it believed its golden age of UK-China relationship too back then. I suppose Brexit and the US-China strategic competition have killed them. Now, having turned itself against EU, its largest trading partner and China, UK has found its options become very limited. Its only choice now is to hook up with the US bandwagon. Now it does a Pivot to Asia version 2: apply to join the club originally design to contain China in trade, the (CP)TPP, and send an armada to Asia-Pacific, not so much to flex muscle against China but to show loyalty to its American boss.

I doubt all these have much of any impact on other nations especially China, or much benefits to UK. It's part of the Global Britain illusion.

I don’t personally see the problem with having LGBT soldiers but being LGBT has nothing to do with military life. Why the hell would an ad for the military focus on this? If you want to promote gender equality, do a separate ad. Military life is about ardor and discipline, not personal identity.

Same. They can be LGBT or aliens for all I care. However this focus on "human rights" does not have place on the military. I dare these recruits to go to their CO and tell them about their "human rights" lol. Anyone who has been into the military, knows that when you enter the military base, a whole lot of your "human rights" are cut down, plus the military cares about discipline not if you are LGBT or not

And lets not forget how hypocritical it is for the US military to talk about "human rights" when they unjustifiably killed tens (hundreds?) of thousands innocent civilians in Afghanistan and Iraq.

What a joke

LGBT is disgusting, and Im not even religious. I served before and got out shortly after Dont Ask Dont Tell was repealed and having dealt with these freaks I don't want to serve alongside them. Now that the highest levels of US government actively advocates this filth and exports it around the world I am even more glad to have gotten out when I did.

Yes, individualism has no place in any military. Yet in the case of the US and most definitely its vassals, they are allowing these freaks to openly express themselves in uniform when that goes against the very essence of discipline, "one team one fight" or "we all wear green". It also show that they get superior rights over the majority when they make up a small minority.

If these freaks and their supporters kept their private lives to themselves I wouldn't care. However, since they are hellbent on shoving it in my face and forcing me to accept it I push back very hard. Its even worse that now its become the mainstream of western culture. Therefore, China, Russia and the rest of the sane world need to push back hard against it!

One thing I would like to know is whether blacks really are committing a disproportionate percentage of racist hate crimes against Asians, or if it’s only the attacks perpetrated by blacks that gets promoted by western social media companies to cause them to go viral, while similar videos of racists attacks by whites either get hard censored and deleted or soft censored and never recommended to anyone.

There is a % of black Americans that are very psychologically disturbed and have responded to Trump’s racist xenophobic rants as if they are part of his vision of AmeriKKKA. It’s very disturbing to see those that are victims of AmeriKKKan racism engaging in racist violence against other non-whites.

Being black in AmeriKKKa can be VERY psychologically destabilizing!

US blacks in my experience have got to be the most politically stupid people I've come across. They scream about slavery and reparations while they are silent about the Arabs and Muslims who enslaved them way before whitey even set foot on Africa. They call Republicans racists and the majority of them vote for Democrats despite the fact the Republican party actually stood against slavery historically. The Dems created the KKK, supported Jim Crow, Segregation and all the other forms of racist legislation. Hillary Clinton called them "super-predators" and her beloved mentor was Sen Robert Byrd, a former Klan leader. Yet these morons will still vote for them!

The Dems also destroyed black families by giving single black mothers welfare, driving the fathers out. 72% of black kids are born to single moms. Anti-intellectualism seems to be encouraged as speaking proper English, studying hard and getting good grades is "acting white".

They are nothing but weaponized tools for white liberals, easily manipulated.

I've met good, hardworking, intelligent blacks that I respect. Sadly they seem to be the minority. Even they say they hate being around other blacks too. All these stereotypical fuckers are doing is giving me more reasons to hate them. At least where I live, people are armed including Asians and strangers of all colors will actually give a friendly nod most of the time, and there is a sizable black population here. I think it helps that the 2nd Amendment and concealed carry still exist here, unlike shitholes like SF, LA or NY.

This soft spoken bigotry really shouldn't be allowed here. Mods of the forum should make a decision on this.

It is not bigotry if its reality, some indians (not all of course) really do drink bovine urine,and bathe in bovine faeces

lol at the accusations on who is bad/worse that goes on on the internet.

Indians constantly accuse Chinese people of eating bats even though this is not true. Maybe 0.001% of Chinese people have ever eaten bat and I'd wager most of those would have done it overseas in countries that do have bat on the menu - Indonesia (not as a mainstay dish), Italy in the past (local delicacy) and even US (obviously not common but bat burger was a thing until covid).

A million times more Indians actually drink cow urine and bathe in cow dung. It's slanderous! How dare you say this!

On the slander and propaganda front, India (whether it's chauvinists just making such a big part of their country or state sponsored efforts) are leagues ahead of China. They do more trashtalking and manipulation than they do real work.

Heres some more US military stupidity to laugh at

The best was when Venezuelan forces thwarted an attempted US mercenary (but state financed and supported) attack on Venezuela just two years ago or so.

Or Iranian forces captured American sailors ... again in Iran's literal front yard, thousands of kilometers away from the US homeland and US interests (oh wait sorry I mean that's not entirely true). Many of these mercenaries think too highly of themselves and then reality humbles them. It's all hollywood and x-box delusions. They have both a saviour complex and a macho rambo complex. I'm sure many of those individuals are actually fine and decent people but to risk everything and die for the interest of those who don't have any care for you. It's horrible but so many westerners are actually deeply brainwashed into conflating complex things that have well defined separation. Motivations of course vary a lot between individuals but they weren't fighting for a better life, national safety, sovereignty, national power, or white power (whatever they want to use as motivation).

It will be a slow managed decline rather than a one-off huge shock, and the western MSM will blame it all on China anyways.

The key to the American public swallowing this raw deal is if the EU follows suit and also suffers to a similar degree.

The American public has long been brainwashed and conditioned to sneer at developing countries and reject any positive news out of China as propaganda.

As such, the only thing that could challenge the planned western MSM narrative of ‘this is as good as it can get’ is if the Europeans start to do significantly better. That is why it is imperative for America to drag the EU down with with so they are also in the same shitty boat.

Notice how the western world have basically just accepted the catastrophic deaths they have needlessly suffered from COVID as a fact of life without much serious complaint despite all the evidence to how few deaths were both possible and attainable had their leaders displayed any foresight and base competence.

That is because Europe and America only really accept each other as ‘worthy’ benchmarks to compare their performances against. Everything else can be easily ignored and dismissed by the western MSM.

As such, so long as America can keep the EU ‘on side’, their people will take a freight train up the arse and just accept that as normal and still rave about how they are the ‘greatest country there ever was or ever will be’.

You forgot Australia NZ and Canada. Only worthwhile benchmarks in this world are colored White. Well actually Pink.

If it ain't White, it ain't Right. (white enforced apartheid on the world)

To me, bigotry begets bigotry. Indians talk so much shit, we should shit on them back and they should be able to handle it.

These white ass kissers don't seem to realize that whitey hates them and looks down upon them as well. They are the first ones called out when telemarketing scammers are brought up. They make fun of their accents, using Apu from the Simpsons as an example. I've even seen some assholes on other forums tell them that their country is shit and that they are better off with the British still around.

I worked in 2 different industries where Indians made a sizable customer base and my coworkers and I collectively agree that the majority of them are among the worst customers to deal with. I've seen coworkers straight insult them in their face and they don't even realize it, and yet they feel superior to us because they speak English. Its the most pathetic thing I've ever seen.

As I said before, being colonized does weird shit to your psyche and mentality.
