The Quad along with the Five Eyes have always been an Anglocentric white supremacist institution with "house slaves" attending to the white "Massas".

This is really why the anglosphere has gotten so out of control and irrational; asking them to treat Chinese as equals implies in their mind that they themselves are slaves and are going to be ass raped by Chinese. To the largely male white leaders of the west, this equates to castration. I find it significant that female leaders of western nations do not have this handicap when dealing with China.
Look at Merkel who has led Germany to greater glory with China and NZ where Arden has declined the white male rape gang invitation

Well here it is, the crack beginning to appear. Isn't it funny that even with this crack appearing, the MSM is still playing politics and blame China for its "divides and conquer" tactics. So nothing to to with each 5 eyes looking after their own interest then?

Margaret Thatcher tried the same old approch when negotiating with Deng over HK and failed.

Failed badly. Remember the fall from the steps? It didn't end well for the wicked witch as she is known by some in the U.K. and then she died, there were celebrations on the streets.

@Gatekeeper sir!!! Since your absences I'm dying to ask about your opinion regarding UK , if Scotland did seceded and it looks like Northern Ireland will follow suited, what shall we call her (England instead of UK)? I know the British monarchy is the one holding the nation together will that also affect the succession, maybe there will be a separate monarchy in Scotland and England with Wales? Or maybe this rumor is all bollocks cause we had nothing else to talk about because of covid...LOL

Wow. I'm honoured you should think i'm such authority on this. But in truth, I'm no more an expert as the next man. But I do have strong opinons on this. So let me start by coming clean. I'm a true 'republican' in the sense I think there's no place in the 21st century for such an outdated institution.

Now let's start with Scotland wanting independence. In order to do so, they have to first and foremost get "agreement" from the U.K. government which is dominated by English members. Now this is interesting because like Catalan, their independence was declared 'illegal'. Now imagine if China gets to veto any independence declaration by Taiwan? But yet it's perfectly fine for the English and Spanish to do so.

Now regarding northern Ireland. Well it was the Irish independence in the Easter uprising to gave patrician of Ireland. In effort the politician kicked it down the line for future generations to sort out with many blood being spilled.

No doubt, the protestants will fight very hard to stay as part of the U.K. but demographic prove to be a hard nut to crack.

With Wales, the less said the better. All I can say is the great Welsh actor once remarked when Prince Charles was crowned the Prince of Wales. "He's your Prince of Wales, not mine" sums it up really.

And as far as monarch is concerned, well it all got mixed up when Scotland's James the forth became England's James the first.

Also there's been so much German blood in the royal family, I'm not even sure it qualify as English crown. They even have to changed from the house if Hanover to the house of Windsor just to ensure no hatred towards the royal in the war with Germany.

This is an example how the media spins and lies. And remember it's a whole lot easier for the media to lie about another country. Who's going to sue?

China’s Solar Dominance Presents Biden With an Ugly Dilemma​

Click to expand...

What dilemma? Easy solution, we all know what he will do.

And there is emerging evidence that some of China’s biggest solar companies have worked with the Chinese government to absorb minority workers in the far western region of Xinjiang, programs often seen as a red flag for potential forced labor and human rights abuses.

Hint...?

Nearly half of the global supply comes from Xinjiang alone. In 2019, less than 5 percent of the world’s polysilicon came from U.S.-owned companies.

Hint...?

“Do you want to stand up to human rights in China, or do you want cheap solar panels?”

Hint...?

“As the U.S. seeks to address climate change, we must not allow the Chinese Communist Party to use forced labor to meet our nation’s needs,” Richard L. Trumka, the president of the A.F.L.-C.I.O., wrote in a letter on March 12 urging the Biden administration to block imports of solar products containing polysilicon from the Xinjiang region.

Wow big hint here...

A spokeswoman for the National Security Council said that the draconian treatment of Uyghurs “cannot be ignored,” and that the administration was “studying ways to effectively ensure that we are not importing products made from forced labor,” including solar products.

Wow another big hint here...

Congress may also step in. Since the beginning of the year, the House and Senate have reintroduced versions of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, which would assume that imports from Xinjiang were made with forced labor and block them from American ports, unless the importer showed proof otherwise

Wow Big Hint..

China has promised to carry out large purchases of American polysilicon as part of a trade deal signed last year, but those transactions have not materialized.

China stronk!

OK guys, since when I was kid I was not the smartest guy in the class so this matter of how the US will respond to China's solar dominance is quite difficult for me understand.

I highlighted some clues from the article but I am still unsure, if you could help me I would appreciate it

LOL now China is using forced labor to build solar panels?

I'm not usually one to swear, but fuck them! Put all those solar panels in the Gobi desert and make them generate fuel.

Well, this is going to be interesting. Although Axios isn't the best source, have also went along with it. Maybe we will see some action in Ukraine next month after all. I'm still leaning towards no war besides trading a few mortars and shells across the border. From Zakharova's comment, it doesn't appear Moscow would reciprocate.

Russia's ambassador to Washington has been recalled to Moscow for "consultations" to determine how to move forward with relations with the U.S., the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement Wednesday.

“We are interested in preventing their irreversible degradation, if the Americans are aware of the associated risks,” Zakharova added.

Interesting how the Falun Gong believe aliens cursed humanity with science and the right-wing in the US who hate science are big readers of the Epoch Times. Are they just groups of like-minds that found each other or did the Falun Gong actually pushed them that way.

IMO, none of the above. Assuming FG was a genuine homegrown cult, there's a strong possibility that it has been co-opted by the usual suspects. Regardless of how it started, it's clearly being guided by outside forces.

russia is planning to block black sea
Looks like things are moving towards open warfare in ukraine
Which is good for China, the us will be distracted and hopefully unable to focus on taiwan

I would prefer President Xi not to attend the summit.

If I had to pick one point without writing an essay: naivety and the propensity to complain about anything foreign to their sensibilities, in front of the locals no less. I hate having to say 'Bruh this isn't Singapore' like I'm a recorder stuck on repeat.

I can see that you also have issues with your own countrymen (Singaporeans), besides issues with what I had to say as a non-countryman. Perhaps you expect a lot from everyone around you; in that you have a list of certain and non-accomodating expectations from your own countrymen, as well as foreigners about not breaching the sanctity of your country. I did see you also applied stereotyping and blanket statements on this group you dislike called Overseas Singaporeans.

Anyway this is out of topic and hence I should end this conversation and move on to others, and you may continue your vitriol if so desired.

Multiple opinion polls have shown that the most popular politician in Singapore, among all ethnic groups surveyed, is this Minister:

the Leader of the Opposition, in fact the most popular Opposition politician since Singapore's Independence, is this guy:

The difference is cultural acclimatisation. I'd say that the attitude towards all recent immigrants and low-wage migrant labour is the same regardless of race. I will even argue that Singapore-Chinese have more problems with Mainland Chinese than with other immigrants. Whites don't always escape either (I notice there is a false dichotomy going on for some people here. Hating on China does not automatically mean loving the West. Hating on both is quite common in Singapore. In fact as a whole Japanese and Korean pop culture put together is probably more popular in Singapore than either US or China's pop culture). Hordes of low wage migrant workers do not present a positive image because of their socioeconomic background and cultural unfamiliarity, not because of race. High skill migrant workers are slightly more accepted but cultural unfamiliarity is still a sticking point.

It's really fascinating as a country to observe. From my observations, there's this "he's one of the good ones" phenomenon for example like how Southerner Whites may regard certain black acquaintances as "one of the good ones". But I'm not an expert and would love to learn more.
