Well I am saying a lot more now. I find you are receptive to information and aren't just insulting me like most people online do. So I figure I'd share information because I honestly like that. Anyway yes China negotiated a lasting peace. The reason you don't hear about it is because you live under US propaganda.

While I agree all propaganda is bad, IMO the US one is the absolute most evil. It's so effective Americans are actually under the delusion that we have to maintain our violent order to "keep the peace". And so any people buy into it. To the point as you said, it would be politically devastating for our politicians to admit we are supporting genocide in Gaza.

*Edit oh and of course when real peace happens, we'll just brush it under the rug. After all it won't last. And when it lasts, well media black out. You'll note the link is from Al Jezzera not a US paper.

*Edit 2: Also I was actually never talking about Russian propaganda. I think everyone misunderstood that. My argument is even if it's true that Russia is doing this, US is so evil we need to question their statement. And then I made a list of evil things that USA does. Finally I followed with obviously I don't support Russia, I just really don't support USA. Here's a horrible fact. USA has killed more people in less time than the Russian Ukraine war for even smaller reasons. Yes this is whataboutism, but my point is, anything that comes out of this empires mouth, we need to question. If it was Germany or France saying it, I wouldn't have made my comment.

It's not what they said. It's an actual bill. We nicknamed it the Invade Hague act. We literally have a law that says we will kill Europeans if they investigate our war crimes such as murdering children. Even the Australians recently took away medals for the horrible war crimes they committed.

Wow, such an American thing to say. Hey the world isn't America, we don't all have gun violence problems. It shouldn't be surprising that China didn't invest in ballistic forensics as much as America did. But to YOU, not having good ballistic forensics is the same as having no idea about basic crime investigation.

Hey, here's another secret, crime existed before guns. Crime investigation existed before guns. Not all countries had psychopaths like the US toting guns and shooting everyone that ballistic forensics became important.

Jesus, you sound ignorant of the real world.

Like I said, china was backwards in many things at that time. The reason all their weapons were Soviet was because they didn't know how to even begin to make their own. The Chinese story is one of coming from nothing in the 80s and 90s to becoming a super power in the 20s.

So yeah, their military definitely didn't meet the gold standard at that time.

What about it.

And thus, again, why China just says fuck you. There's no reason to let anyone know where in advancement stages china was in.

At that time, very. That's actually well known. China's boom didn't really start until the early 2000. Which is why America likes to say that they created China.

But all that is actually not the point. It's not an issue of incompetence but simply not keeping stacks of useless data about minor forensic differences in bullets. As with most places at that time, you'd just have enough to give you type of gun but not make and manufacturer. I'm not even sure that US would have had it at that time.

*Edit and China didn't care at the time because unlike the violent shithole that is America, they didn't have a lot of gun crime.

A collection of sortable data points. Guess what isn't easy to sort, stacks of paper. No one had a "database" of forensic markings to compare anything to back then. Which is why they compared it to the barrels. Sure once you get computers and stuff you could use that to collect data points and sort, but you ain't doing that with paper.

Otherwise, why even have computers?

*Edit: Oh wait is this your thinking of how SKS are handcrafted? The world doesn't work that way.

Yeah, things they didn't have in the 89s. Thanks for confirming you have no idea what you're talking about. A database of gun type forensics. Yeah all those super computers in China back then.

I'm not the one who commented that the world is a cartoon unless there were guns and bombers used, that was YOU son.

So you admit the world is a cartoon then. And definitely no bombers or guns right?

It is because I was making a statement to your statement. Which is it's hypocritical to ignore the Muslims who support what China is doing.

Nope, I'm just incompetent.
