Law Chinese Citizen Journalists Who Reported On The COVID Pandemic In Wuhan Are Being Sent To Prison.

hi hi hi Gregolian,

i know that's what you'd like to see happen, but of course you know this will not happen.

*muses*

so much angst regarding how China treats its own seems like misplaced energy, to me. i agree their behavior towards their own is barbaric. medieval, even.

but its also true that no one cares. no one wants to see their company lose profitability because of the plight of some Muslims in China.

Just cause I understand why doesn't mean I think it's right.

Just like I get WHY we don't drop a bomb on the Sauds even though eradicating that family from the face of the Earth would improve lives for even other Muslims in their own country.

Gregolian hio!

i was just curious if you had a more.....mmmm....realistic outcome, going foward, with China.

all good.

Hey..

What else?
No idea.

I don't believe it but given how China looks poised to take over the world economy I get WHY the conspiracy of this virus being manmade by China is out there and gets so many followers.

There isn't a good one. You can preach all day about bringing manufacturing away from China so on and so forth but the simple fact is their labor is so dirt cheap that no company will do that as it impacts their bottom line too much and their board won't be able to afford their 4th brand new Bentley in 3 years.
 
China is basically Congo, and Corporate CEOs are King Leopold. I guess they have a government too, to tighten the grip even further...
 
yes this is good long form for my point, its sad how easily people are manipulated and how greedy/self-serving the upper echelons of american society are

hi there THEfightsAREfixed,

oh, i think you're giving ordinary people too little credit, my friend.

they aren't being manipulated.

"China = bad" is one of those bite size pieces of information that most Americans can actually grasp and retain. they get it. they've heard the word "outsourcing" enough to comprehend whats at stake.

ordinary Americans don't care either, and they hold the power of the purse. Walmart. Costco. made in China.

all good.

Like I said, I don't like the idea of a shitheel regime like Winnie the Pooh in China running the world economy but I don't have a good solution either.

In the Philippines yes my Mom used to work for one a garment manufacturing business from Chicago.

It closed down in 1990 and so Mom got laid off.

hi Gregolian,

i appreciate your honesty.

i don't think there is any one solution, but the TransPacific Partnership (RIP) was a start.

"Hey Japan... remember that military we took away? We'll give it all back if you and South Korea can play nice and invade an old foe"
"When you want us to do that?"
"ASAP"

It's not all cutesy bullshit anymore thank fuck.
