I find that people nowadays take politics too personally, as if opposing viewpoints are an attempt to invalidate someone’s existence or something.

Ehh if China didn't take its politics too seriously it would still be a poor country. I mean sure if you're Caucasian you can just laugh things off.



I would be interested in invalidating dem Ukrainian Nazis' viewpoints becos they killing people different from them man. Same with Israel and Gaza this weekend.

China holds EU to account for criticism by European MPs​

• Veteran diplomat says Beijing does not recognise bloc’s separation of powers
• Series of recent visits to Taiwan by EU lawmakers has sparked diplomatic rebukes

At a reception in Beijing last month, the European Union’s outgoing ambassador was warned by a senior Chinese official that the words and deeds of European lawmakers towards China – including visits to Taiwan – would be viewed as official EU policy.

“China will never deal with two EUs,” Wu Hongbo, a veteran diplomat and special envoy for China on European affairs, said at a leaving party for Nicolas Chapuis on July 8, according to sources familiar with the conversation.

“You are telling us that you have nothing to do with the European Parliament,” he said. “That’s not OK for China. China sees the EU as one, so whatever the separation of powers in the EU – we recognise only one.”

China is so fascist. It holds parades to scare its people into submission. It should become a normal country and keep military hardware visible to the public all the time 7/24. To become as normal as the USA it should also use the said hardware to shoot 2 civilians every day.

I blame this on America’s poor basic education system.

These poor stormtroopers obviously got mixed up and thought that since their maths teacher taught them that two negative makes a positive, double freedom must equal repression.

Yes, using lawmakers to hide behind the separation of powers is the new trick of the West. If a country's lawmakers have special interests that require them to act against the official policy, their party can't manage that, or the foreign affairs (which is THE institution that is responsible for foreign relations) can't openly discredit such lawmakers, then it sucks to be that country. None of China's business. China is basically saying discredit such individuals when they do their act or we will assume the gov is complicit.

Decoupling is happening, and the past week may raise the political volume on decoupling to unprecedented levels. Any real acceleration, however, may be illusory

meets reality:

In the first seven months this year, China's exports to the US rose 15.1 percent to 2.25 trillion yuan, while imports rose 2.3 percent on a yearly basis. China's trade surplus with the US widened by 21.7 percent to 1.57 trillion yuan, customs data showed.

In fact the copium FT is right, decoupling is happening but from a different country. China is decoupling the US while the latter further sinks in the black hole of depending on China

I find it funny that you would be the one to break the news to us, Peas, as I was literally thinking London of all places had polio making a comeback, and of course New York gets it, too, like two peas in the same pod, on so many levels.
