On trust me, I won't be sarcastic when I am actually angry.


Those are nothing but media propaganda posturing. You only see what Western propaganda machine wants you to see, because they are not going to report the other side of the story. These are perfectly convincing for anyone who is not trained in statistics, critical thinking and comparing numbers. In short: these are perfectly convincing for 文科生（non-STEM-educated people）.

"Increasing weapon sales and deals toward countries that are directly going against China": How much increase is that exactly? And how does that comparing to the growth of Chinese military power? If Chinese military strength grows by 100, and the US increase sales by 0.1, how is that not a act of virtual-signaling under the new rhetoric?

"new military bases around China": Where are these? How many did it increase or decrease during the last or 40 years? Isn't Afghanistan also technically around China? Didn't they just abandon that? Didn't the Americans quietly left their bases in central Asia?

"more millitary alliances": with whom? With whom that was not already a US ally decades ago already? What formal alliance did the US newly form around China, except beat the drum to fool common 文科生 like you?

"more soldiers stationed near China" Again, numbers, numbers, numbers! show me your numbers, instead of your empty claims. I am not a 文科生, you can't fool me with a claim without backing it up with real numbers.

"more frequent freedom of navigation exercices", again, to you 文科生s, sailing your ship in international water somehow trumps building actual groups of artificial islands. I guess if I am China, as long as I don't start WW3 and invade the USA mainland, you 文科生s will keep on calling me weak. I don't know how to take this.

"the highest ranked US politicians visiting Taiwan", well, that was aggravating, but I truly thank the US for doing that, which give China the opportunity to literally wipe out the so-called "Taiwan Strait Middle Line" (海峡中线). Before that, PLA aircraft never flew so close to Taiwan shore. So, keep it up. Hope McCarthy will man-up and visit Taiwan again, will make it much easier to do more.


It's not just everything, it is 文科生's entire universe. Their world view are based on these.


........... Now you are contradicting yourself?! Wouldn't this make your previous statement a total waste of time? Why bother to bullshit in the first place?


废话连篇！


.......... Why on earth do you even bother to contradict yourself? This is a prime example of a totally useless and meaningless exchange of words. Now I feel cheated to even spend the energy and time to respond to your circle of bullshit. Your entire point is nothing but an incoherent collection of gibberish: you claim one thing, and then mention that the opposite of that thing is also true. That's a contradiction.

Your statistics is 10 ad hominems per 10 paragraphs literally before an even bigger finishing ad hominem of a whole, separate paragraph to finish it like a cherry on top. I imagine you reading it and thinking how smart you are.

You give a point, then finalize it with an ad hominem, as to cement its validity and to make you appear smarter.

There is no point in arguing anymore, because you are just going to introduce some new, more creative ways to describe myself instead of actually thinking about my points.

While I honestly don't care to waste my time and analyze you, so I could respond in a same fashion.

You are just like some western redditor.

Lankford: It has been reported publicly that SVB had a large number of Chinese investors that are there including some that are companies directly connected to the Chinese Communist Party. Will those individuals, companies, entities, and investors that are Chinese investors be made whole based on assessments in my banks in Oklahoma? So what I’m asking is, will my banks in Oklahoma pay a special assessment to be able to make Chinese investors whole from Silicon Valley Bank?

LMAO someone remind me what caused Credit Sussy to whore itself out to UBS again.

I am asking for your statistics, because you are the one trying to make a point.

"increasing weapon sales and deals toward countries that are directly going against China", give me the numbers please. How much arms sales before and after? To which countries exactly? How are they even relevant in comparison to China's military growth?

"new military bases around China": again, give me the numbers please, how many bases around Chinese before and after, at least show it on a graph to support your point. Your original point was that US sanctions and aggressive behaviors are working against China because they tarnish China's reputation and make people think China is weak. Well, show me with numbers how much US has step up their military build up against China around China, and how does that increase US militaristic advantages against China. Because if US "stepped-up" action is outmatched or even dwarfed by China in the same region, that would hardly be a US show of force.

"more millitary alliances": Please tell me with whom? With whom that was not already a US ally decades ago already? What formal alliance did the US newly form around China? Please point at least one out.

"more soldiers stationed near China" Again, numbers. At least give some numbers. At least show a numerical increase. How many US soldiers were stationed near China before, and how many now? Numbers will really show your point. Not just claims.

"more frequent freedom of navigation exercises", again, if you think this is somehow more aggressive and effective than China building actual artificial islands capable of stationing fleets of large aircrafts in South China Sea, that's your right. But that won't be very convincing. Besides, in terms of military presence, are they actually sailing more often in Asia Pacific? Are you saying that they don't sail in Asian Pacific waters with the same frequency before? Just by calling it "freedom of navigation" sails neither increased nor decreased their presence in the region. Show me the numbers comparison before and after in the region. If they already sails around in the region in the same frequency (but just didn't call it "freedom of navigation") before they started this own "freedom of navigation" campaign, than that's nothing but a publicity stunt.

废话。

This is a conversation thread, not a theme specific thread. I can't go into such details here and spam the news thread with old news, links, proofs, huge essays, etc. I'm not that autistic. This is where you give a couple of sentences, I give a couple of sentences, etc. No need to be so serious and furious.

I would finalize this by saying that China's power projection in 2022 was enough imo, after Pelosi's visit, probably why more countries around the world got confidence in China like Saudi Arabia.

However now, due all the newfound developments and moves made by the US side, since then for 2023 and beyond, China must also increase its response levels to match US provocation levels if it wants to keep its image around.

Don't just pile a whole list of news and reports, summarize into real tangible numbers.

Again, numbers.

Okey, numbers.

IQ drops for all age groups and both genders? That's really weird, is there something systematically affecting the population?

IQ scores in US dropped for the first time in nearly a century​

Over the past several years, multiple studies have shown that IQ scores are dropping in many European countries. And now, that appears to be the case with the U.S. as well.

They found that IQ scores have dropped for all age groups, regardless of gender. They also found that the steepest declines were among young people. They also noted that while a few skills, such as spatial reasoning, were better than previous generations, other skills, such as problem solving, numerical series assessments and verbal reasoning, had all grown worse.

Of course IQs dropped. I blame the Internet (WWW) and smartphones.
It is much easier to just look something up than trying to infer or, you know, learn stuff.

Spatial reasoning is probably better because of 3D computer games.

After new plants in Japan, the US, and German became operation, the good days of Taiwan would be over. China's demand would probably never recover as self-sufficient drive and ban of advance chips exports to China. Tsai is the most corrupted and useless leader of Taiwan but Taiwanese would support her no matter what.

Not enough Chinese people coming.
