That is why I think sometimes Chinese people are stupid, and too many are just too damn soft.
Guess I always believed in Hsun Tzu and not Mencius.
Seems to me these people forget the lessons from imperialism. The imperialism kind of was encompassing everything. When we say everything, that means freaking everything, including some damn logo. That is what imperialism was all about.
They did they think those people had changed? How stupid can you be?
Actions speak louder than words!
Finally, they realize some correct thinking.
This is bizarre, it like these young people never heard of imperialism.
What gives, eh?
Still, it was kind of weird.
Why was Elaine Chao in China visiting and having meetings with Chinese leadership when her husband is bedridden in a US hospital?
What did President Trump call her again?

Going to rant because I am drunk.
People really do not remember how toxic imperialism was.
Not only there was complete subjugation, there was the stench of racism attached to all aspects of that imperialism of the past.
Why do we think the decolonization after World War II happened with such a vengeance. By vengeance, that was mostly emotional vengeance as the Third World was that weak. But once the imperial powers destroyed themselves with those two world wars, finally the countries in chains had a chance to free themselves.
When they say, dollar hegemony, what do you think they mean?
US dollar being the reserve currency for the world, having oil priced in dollars, allows the United States to extract goods from the rest of the world at lower prices, because the Fed controls the printing presses for greenbacks.
What was colonization and imperialism all about? It was about extracting resources at lower prices. Like the in the past for Europe, like today for the US.
Then the British had their commonwealth of nations. Where in the British Commonwealth, the rules were nations traded within it, usually at preferential tariffs. Guess what?
Guess what? Who is saying that this telecom equipment must be from trusted countries?
Screw you imperialist. Still setting up rigged systems, based often on racist ideology, to extract gains at the expense of others.
The imperialism never went away. It just changed to be more polite.
(Got that line from Canada. They say American racism is real racism, but Canadian racism is polite racism. Not too sure how true that is today, things do change.)
So some young Chinese people find out, that a European company, can use the law to claim a cultural motif, and extract money from it, and have their European government back them fully citing the rules of the law, and now they are upset about it?
Why do we think China loves Chairman Mao! We know what he stood for.
What else can we say!
China should have made Apple use Chinese suppliers for Apple products sold in China, HK, Macau. Apple uses very few Chinese suppliers compared to Huawei.
Maybe she is plotting vengeance against the Epsteinians for doing this to her sister.Still, it was kind of weird.
