@FiveBestIdeas@KnowBothSides@MemesEnds@specter_affairs@AngelicaOung It's just your perception. UN also has its perception that Taiwan is a province of China, so it rejects Taiwan membership. Your perception is useless. Taiwan either makes China accept its independence permanently, or be reunified.
@ligma__sigma@KnowBothSides@AngelicaOung@fredleept Why China negotiated a small amount and paid it to UK, but not US? Why doesn't US also negotiate? Cuz US protects China! Your whining is so clueless ๐คฃ
@onemoregrunt@AngelicaOung Cuz they both speak Mandarin, while Hong Kong, a British colony, not part of ROC, didn't speak Mandarin, but only their own dialect Cantonese
@onemoregrunt@AngelicaOung Wong is Cantonese spelling, i.e. mainly ppl from Hong Kong. The same family name is spelled as Wang in both PRC and Taiwan. The old US company Wang Laboratories, founded in 1951 by computer pioneer Dr. An Wang, became a massive multibillion-dollar tech giant in the 1970s.
@AngelicaOung@teortaxesTex One reason is CPC can focus on doing their job, not on elections, fighting the other party. They are also tough on any subversion attempts, incitement speeches and actions, so that they can focus on doing the job, not losing the job.
@AngelicaOung Too bad US has too many enemies by their own fault. There is no different timeline unless US never meddled in the Middle East and never supported Israel. Impossible. So it's always doomed by their own fault.
@tenobrus@teortaxesTex I hope you live long enough to see the world totally dominated by China. Then you will either start to like it, or become suicidal. Today, the world is already tired of the US hegemony, both brutal and hypocritical. One thing that US always beats China is its stealthy propaganda
@mekimosabe@AngelicaOung What oil does anyone use directly in daily life? Only gas. So anyone who only has EV will not be inconvenienced. Anyone who believes that social credit exists is a moron
@AngelicaOung >The world will be more chaotic than during the unipolar moment.
Not necessarily at all. US didn't do shit abt regional wars like IranโIraq War, Pakistan India wars. The world never have a leader, but only a big bully who only cares abt its own interests
@AmericaExpanded@AngelicaOung >When (not if) the IRGC creates a mass-casualty event (around a hundred KIA plus), this will tip Congress to formally commit to war
I guess you must be too young to have ever heard of Vietnam War. This is Trump's Vietnam War
