Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
These are literally the same goals China announces every time the US has “dialogue” with China then turn around and accuse them of a bunch of shit or threaten to invade the country or threaten to sanction them.
I guess it’s beneficial PR wise because you’re offering cooperation and mutual benefit while the other guy is foaming at mouth and threatening to kill your family while he swears he’s benevolent. But at the same time it does come off as pathetic. Ultimately actions speak louder than words, and the global south has determined that the US and the west have been arrogant for too long. Hopefully it goes somewhere positive
Exactly, China just keeps reminding the world they're the adults in the room.
Actually the adult in the room understands the necessary measures for a stable economy, like genocide and poors dying in the street
that's right, just the cost of doing business efficiently
