Israel is a vassal state of USA. If USA wanted to stop the invasion of Palestine they could. Instead they are funding the invasion of Palestine by SENDING LITERAL WEAPONS OF DEATH.

Also, Chinese intelligence warned the world that USA was causing havoc in the middle east before it happened. That means Chinese intelligence knows things the rest of the world doesn’t. So if Chinese intelligence says it’s important to be neutral and continue business with Russia then they have earned my trust.

Lol, of course. I knew you were a hypocrite. The post isn't for you but for everyone else to see that.

That's exactly what they're saying. They are allowing military transit of Chinese ships and aren't building up defensive islands and it's working out for them. To China's point, that's what they're trying to get everyone to do. They want to be the only military in the area, they're not going to do anything else.

China's whole argument is that handing over your corner of the SCS isn't going to make any major difference. Malaysia is agreeing and it's important to note that also is still making military and security agreements with Australia. In other words, besides Chinese patrols nothing will change.

NOW, that said, what right does China have to do that? It's on legally shaky ground at best. I'm not trying to argue that China should have the right to do this. I'm just pointing out that what you're trying to make a "gotcha" isn't a "gotcha" but instead quite literally exactly what's happening.

So I'm assuming you must take all Ukraine's talking points with a grain of salt too right?

After all China's calling for a ceasefire there too.

Yeah, I know you probably didn't mean to imply that. To be honest in some ways I was using your post to soapbox. Just tired of people calling Huawei a liar when they literally didn't say anything.

Sadly for the US is it small scale manufacturing. Which is kind of the problem. There's been so much reduction in US manufacturing capability that they are essentially small scale. Other people have already pointed that out. What I will extend though is technically this is what the US is concerned about. The whole point that the US government is trying to make is that it's a national security issue that the US only produces at such small scale. So not only is what the US saying is that they want to destroy the environment and spend billions to start to maybe create large scale manufacturing again. Is it worth it? I dunno, but that's what's being proposed. Kill the environment, stick with ICE vehicles so USA can still compete in large scale manufacturing. Thus, Biden is a hypocrite.

Yes actually, if you understood economies of scale there's a lot of reasons why planting your own garden in your backyard is worse than having industrial farms. Similarly, one country being able to control all the pollution would be far better than spreading it out and having little to no locust of control.

For some articles about farming. Now obviously, there are situations where you can make local manufacturing better, but that comes at a high cost.

Either way, the point is, your initial assumption is wrong and I hope you learned something.

Yeah this is a bad meme. The whole point of machine learning is to do minutely different things over millions of generations to see differences and their effects. It's the exact opposite of doing the same thing and expecting different results. Machine learning is the summation of millions of differences.

I'm so tired of people trying to ridiculously imply that everything coming out of Huawei is fake. The argument doesn't even make sense as this isn't from Huawei, this is an engineering sample given to an end user.

I realize you're not exactly saying that, but it really gets on my nerves these days. For example, when the Kirin 9000s came out, people were saying Huawei was lying about it being a 7nm chip and that it was made in Taiwan from old stock or whatever. The problem with those claims are the only reason we knew it was a 7nm chip was because a CANADIAN company opened it up and determined it was indeed a 7nm chip. Huawei didn't say anything and people were calling them liars for what Canadians were saying. It's why there was the 4.9999G jokes since Huawei never claimed the 9000s was 5G.

Similarly in this case, it's an engineering sample. Huawei again didn't say anything. If you're going to call someone a liar the person you're accusing should have at least said something.

Look up "I like it" in Google. There are literal songs written for that response in English. Your understanding of cultural responses is so ignorant you have to question how little you know. Entire songs have been written that proves you don't know what your talking about.

How do you know so little about language. It's baffling. The whole point is in Chinese it would be odd to say I love it because love is reserved for living things. But that doesn't mean the word love doesn't exist in Chinese. That's why the McDonald's slogan was the way it was. And trust me, McDonald's team knows much more about translation than you do.

I am fluent in both languages. It is in no way strange to say I like it. I have no idea where you are getting that concept. Hell McDonald's had a whole campaign stating I'm loving it as an extreme version of I like it. Hell, a common response in English is I don't like it, I love it. Which again is an extension of I like it.

Your basic understanding of both languages is so ridiculously wrong I'm at a loss for words.

*Edit. Which by the way became 我就喜欢, in the Chinese McDonald's. So are you going to say Chinese doesn't have the word for love?

What nonsense.

Everything you said is true in English.

If I ask do you like ice cream, a common answer is I like it. You can also say yes. Exactly the same as 喜欢, or 是的. Both are perfectly normal to say.

You are trying to imply the second one is not normal. You are wrong.

What the fuck are you talking about. 是 Is a direct translation for yes. And we absolutely would answer

你喜欢冰淇淋吗 With 是的。

Similarly we would absolutely answer in the negative to that question with 不。 Because 不 is absolutely a direct translation of no.

To repeat 是 and 不 are direct translations of yes and no where you can drop them in replacement in English.

Well, both sides are bad. Your argument is Trump is far worse. Which as an American you should feel that way. Because Trump would be fucking horrible for America. But if you were Palestinian, you'd definitely prefer Trump as he might pull support from Israel.

Thus, the problem today isn't that there is a good guy, it's choosing which genocide you support. Do you support the genocide of Palestinians or Ukrainians. Either way, you get to vote for genocide. Clearly the US is a shining example of democracy.

*Edit: Those who are wondering why Trump would support Palestine, it's simple, he's a Russian puppet. It serves him to switch sides to get more money from Russia. Obviously, Trump wouldn't do something that doesn't benefit him, but when you're half a billion dollars in the hole, uncle Putin is going to come to save the day. If Trump wins of course.

No, an inflation index only measures necessities. Ironically that's a reason inflation always goes up as small electronics and other non-necessities actually have gone down significantly. But as I said the inflation index only counts things like groceries, housing, cars, oil and stuff like that.

That all said, it'd be fascinating to know what is the price limit that would stop hotdog throwing and the other question that needs answered is if this increase would make them more or less money.

The funny thing is the electoral college was designed to counter exactly this event. In the case an absolute tyrant is going to get voted in, the electoral college is supposed to be the last chance to challenge it. But with the way the GOP is going, ain't no one gonna challenge anything.

As they say, the devil will come bearing a cross wrapped in the American flag.

Wow this article is a masterpiece of propaganda and disinformation. It doesn't mention anything about the fact that some of those arrested have literal backgrounds working for the CIA. Then it claims that China is getting less foreign investment by saying the NET inflow and outflow is only 33 Billion dollars. Here's the thing, China has been investing heavily in foreign countries like Mexico and Vietnam. So much so that Chinese factories in Mexico are shipping more to USA than China which has recently made Mexico USA's largest exporter.

So, by obfuscating information, they're claiming China is getting less FDI, but wait:

https://www.reuters.com/markets/german-investment-china-rises-new-record-high-2024-02-14/

Germany is having record high investments in China, what's going on?

Well it's easy, they're trying to claim net not total. If I used to make 50 from inflow last year and now make 100 this year but now I'm also spending 80 my "net" went from 100 to 20. I LOST 60%!!!!

Like I said, effective way to obfuscate the data. Love it

Well tell that to your government. They are not saying that. And until most of the UN agrees with that, Taiwan can't be considered a country.

In fact, as a Taiwanese person, I'd prefer it if people like yourself didn't just say platitudes like Taiwan is a country and then do literally nothing in your votes to make that happen. You disappoint me.

I talked about that. This is how China is keeping the messaging consistent. Again, according to most states in the UN, they want a 2 state solution for Palestine. That's why China's pushing an armed resistance solution for the Palestinians.

Also, according to most states in the UN, they agree upon a 1 state solution for China and Taiwan. That's why China's pushing for an armed resistance solution against the Taiwanese occupiers.

It doesn't matter what states say internally or want internally. The whole point is consistency of message from the Chinese. Which is armed resistance is acceptable for occupations. Thus, no "oh what if it turned around on China?" It's consistent messaging, there's no turning around.

NOW what you're arguing is that the people don't feel that way. Which means the west isn't following it's own "rule of law". The problem with your argument is it makes clear that China is the one agreeing and following the UN rulings and the west is bending the "rules of law". This is also why China cares so much about what they're "hearing" as you stated and doesn't really care about what they say internally. Which seems petty to you, but means China is actually obeying rule of law and the west is not.
