Protesters BOOED as the flag was lowered, and one woman tried blocking the officials while holding a trans flag.

 
the cultural Sinocentrism of the Han state and people appears to remain.
I'd agree that "Middle Kingdom Syndrome" remains... but it's not your great-great-great-great-great-grandpappies sinocentrism.

Hell, even the Soviets knew that, with good reason. They fought several division-level engagements with China that the rest of the world now dismisses as "border skirmishes." And its not any kind of secret that China looks at what the IJA use to call the "Eastern Resource Area" with covetous chinky slanteyes. Lots of resources, both untapped and barely tapped. And lots of space to spread out their population.
 
In minor American education system news:
Rochester Public Schools )in Minnesota to recognize the Islamic holiday Eid al-Adha as a school holiday starting in the 2027-28 school year.

This will cancel all classes for students and staff.

 
There are Chinese geneticists talking openly about how fucking easy it would be to wipe out whole countries and ethnicities with biowarfare and how they'd really kind of like to try that, but really, its fine. They're just joking, I'm sure.

we just don't talk about it openly and gleefully but do you think they came up with this idea on their own? you're being squeamish about what war is. this capacity almost certainly already exists and isn't deployed because everybody is practicing bio-MAD.
 
Red states actually ship infrastructure. The treasury still gets looted but not full retard levels. Beaks get wet in Red States. In California they put a fucking house boat in.
tbh your underselling how rat fucked cali got with that high speed rail shit, "house" boat undersells it by like 13 orders of magnitude, fleet of aircraft carriers is far more accurate

Israel's war in the Middle East, and them getting the US to attack Iran, has utterly fucked the global trade system and negatively affected Americans of all stripes. When they look for a scapegoat, they'll be looking for the folks with round, black caps, especially since Israel encouraged America to attack in the first place.

And even before that, hell, even before the 2020s, your average right-wing nutjob already hated Jews. It was the Neocons and religious Protestants who liked them. The rest of the Right were either fiscal conservatives who wished the US wasn't joined at the hip with Israel, or they're outright white supremacists or Neo-Nazis who actively blame the Jews for everything wrong with the world.
I still think that one of your premises is unsupported, that Americans have a history of serious, mass-targeted violence against communities, and I take your implication that lynching provides an example of such a thing as a vicious slander upon Americans. Basically, I apologize but I am presenting an unfalsifiable premise: Americans won't fuck with jews en masse. If it happens in America, it's because too many non-Americans were imported and America doesn't exist anymore. Same way that actual Europeans are not doing the antisemitisms in Europe.

You mean, they really aren't that different than any other ascending global power?

Because that was my point from the start... And I really wasn't too squeamish about it. I just noted Chinese rhetoric, I didn't make any value judgements. Hell, they'd be doing the entire world a favor by depopulating India in 48 hours.

They should have bear sprayed that dumb bitch.

I have officially hit zero tolerance for people pulling this obstruction shit.

People voted for representatives.
Those people voted to take down the fag flag.
If you want to stand with your homo friends and cry about it fine stop forcing people to interact with you.

anyone every seen that scene from the chinese version of saving private ryan where main characters almost get massacred by the incoming army but the hero finds a chinese flag in his inventory and starts waving it and the enemy army like, starts genuflecting or some shit, idk I am always in tears laughing by that point, ill see if I can find it

anyway that looks like that was what she thought would happen.

HOLY SHIT I FOUND IT AND ITS WAYYYYYY BETTER THAN I REMEMBER, the enemies are nigs and they respect the Chinese flag so much they stop attacking its fucking gold
 
Finally someone that understands my methods. RAPE criminals.

this is always a weird conversation because of the constant flips in between tu quoque and realpolitik. My position is that China and the US are not natural enemies, the Thucydides trap is military industrial complex grift bullshit, but that's in the context of not being a softheaded liberal poopypants but of someone who expects my tax dollars to be spent on a strong American military, just not a retarded metastasized one. There are people in the US government who are slavering to get everyone upset enough about the immanent threat of dogeating Uyghur killing cardinal imprisoning atheist commies that they will be able to retire on the private islands of their armsdealing buddies and I'm not down. The world is very, very, very large and China can just be where it is and fuck with the people around it and I don't care. Also though we should manufacture stuff in the US.

mfers are trying to get revenge for giving them an 200 year long opium crisis with the fent

USAs PLANNED high speed rail

utterly train mogged I fear
China invested in EVs because they couldn't make an internal combustion engine and Tesla/GM were stupid enough to teach them how to make electric cars.

China invested in HSR because they couldn't make a jet engine and Japan/Germany were stupid enough to teach them how to make trains.

In both cases, China invested in inferior technology that they stole from Western companies and then spent a lot of money on shills trying to convince Westerners that they're actually superior.

In fact the ACLU exists because the lynchers refused to lynch a nigger after a jew tried to set him up. Even the heyday of the KKK they left niggers alone who stayed in their lane.

Remember you are talking to a leftist Star Wars fan in the year of our lord 2026 though. Who cant understand that his franchise was ruined because it was colonized by his politics.
