I would suggest you are stuck in an old mindset.

In the past, the imperial power who got to the top, always a western one, once at the top, they started to molest others.

China is different. China is not interested in molesting others, because China is not interested in others. That is bluntest way to put it.

China is willing to do business, but other than that, not sure if there is much else.

As for the neighbourhood, there are still scores to settle. Japan/Taiwan, then India probably.

The accounts are not even. Not yet.

At least Taiwan is smart enough to know moving 50% of Taiwan's chip business to the US which is what Trump wants means the less likely the US will intervene if China takes Taiwan. But then that's why Taiwan came up with that proposal for an advanced technology pact with the US.

You have Americans/Taiwanese teasing bombing the Three Gorges Dam. At China's Victory Day Parade they should've had every name of a US carrier written on China's anti-ship missiles.

This sounds like begging on Lai's part.

Richard Nixon, used to say, in one of those Taiwan crisis, that if mainland China got Kim-men and Matsu, then they will advance to Taiwan, then Hawaii, leaving the American western coast at risk.

Later of course, Nixon went to China to met Mao, and all of that stuff from the 1950's was forgotten.

Then times change,

If Lai is bringing up this kind of communist expansion logic towards California, that means he has nothing left. Is that the best he can do? In other words?

Use fearmongering from the 1950's America? LOL!

Crap, how long ago was 1950's America? Gawd daynam!

At least times were much simpler back then.

Find a boyfriend or girlfriend. Go dating. Get married. Raise kids. That was the America life back then, and Mao Zedong was a threat to all of that. The Americans were really scared of communism, but they learned that was totally exaggerated too.

That was why seeing that Tom Cotton quiz that Singaporean about his non-existent connections to the communist part of China, was just so beautiful. Wrapped minds ask wrapped questions.

Lai is appealing to that wrapped 1950's mentality in Washington DC, because he has no other effective cards to play. Feels like it is over.




Okay, the reason for me to post this old song, was to show how different the mentality was back then in America.

Today, if some writes a song, it will not have these crony, sort of crony lyrics. If some is going to kiss something, then the lyrics will be more like - shake shake, shake that ass, twerk twerk kiss kiss ass ass.

Times change. And Lai is still singing from the script from 1950.

Victor Gao gave a troll idea — sedate Lai during dental visit and allow the mainland to takeover after the coup for easy rewards.

It’s more the half Chinese half white vice president who acts as the eminence grise and colonial satrapy that should be neutralised.


Australia is basically the home of the Anglo five eyes hardcore cia segment, strange how immediately after this shot across the bow, there was a mysterious explosion at simandou, the massive iron ore mine in Guinea that directly competed against Australian iron ore

First the H1B fiasco and now this. Maybe the Indian state will finally give up trying to encourage brain drain and actually create opportunities at home?

Honestly it's a bit too late. There's already a large number of Indians in the UK. They will continue to try to get into positions of power so they can open the gates again.

Russians be like "need real currency to buy DJI drones you know".

Indians like to say China has no friends while India does. Realistically Russia is the only one that can be considered a "friend" and this is how they treat them when things aren't rosy. Everyone looks kind when things are good.

I remembered about two years ago, Russia wanted to buy a couple dozen cargo ships from India. At least they thought it's a good way to dump those accumulated rupees. I wonder how's that going today.

There was also unverified rumours in the Indian media about Russia buying arms and ammunition from India using those rupees.

But I guess the rupees keep stacking up, and Russia is running out of things to buy from India.

Even with Bitcoin constantly going up, it's probably more reliable for payments than rupees right now.
