  1. Japan needs to enforce strict border blacklists for tourists that have a history of bad behavior. Entry into a host country is a privilege, not a right.

  2. The election variant came a bit late.

  3. These businesses need to start documenting these behaviors and blacklist these travelers.

  4. I thought the dude was a simp until he turned the tables on her.

  5. The irony of this situation is not lost on me. In the 70's, Vietnamese refugees could not wait to flee to Hong Kong. Then Hong Kong was returned to China. Now we have Chinese fleeing to Vietnam.

  6. Start blacklisting tourists from entering the country. Zero tolerance.

  7. The Chinese lost the fight with the Vietnamese.

  8. "mixing cargo trucks with traffic is dangerous!" LOL! Tell us you are too timid and incompetent to drive without telling us you are are too timid and incompetent to drive .

  9. Why would Turkey buy the J20? They have their own under development.
    11
  10. The Chinese market is wildly inflated due to inflation and have no relation to actual results.

  11. The DMV, unfortunately.

  12. Still does not justify their behavior. This is people who have never had accountability.

  13. Just like Russia, do not underestimate the power of quantity. Even a hoard of ants can overwhelm a human.

  14. Why would anyone buy off brand and expect Roomba quality? There is a reason those things are $300+. They do the job and they are engineered well.

  15. If I were Russia, I would have the Russian state oil company get into the foreign exchange business. They can ask to be paid in Yuan for Chinese natural gas shipments while simulatneously exchanging their yuan with ruble domestically and remit the yuan to Chinese vendors in China. The foreign currency never leaves the home country.

  16. Highly unlikely the J35 can beat even the F18 Super Hornet in terms of low RCS.

  17. The Chinese airline leasing company should have taken compensation in titanium or crude oil.

  18. $250m per jet!? That is insane. So is buying the J-10 with reliability issues. I would have went with South Korean or Swedish jets instead.

  19. If Chinese women are listening to feminists, they are doomed. We learned our lesson in the West. That is why men noped the F out of dating in the US.

  20. The rule of law is what makes a reserve currency. The lack of the rule of law but the whims of Xi means the RMB will never be traded as the reserve currency.

  21. We learned this in America a long time ago. The value is in the land, not the ownership interest in the airspace.

  22. The issue is not the cleaning. Tankers that carry food should never be used to carry fuel, solvents or other non food chemicals. Period. These people from the drivers to the company CEOs and the CCP officials simply do not care.

  23. This is not even a situation of reduced dowry. These women could not pay men to take them. They are walking liabilities.

  24. Even Chinese internet warriors sound like American criminal sympathizers. These peoplenare not hungry or starving. This is outright theft because they can get away with it. They are no different than the shoplifters in San Francisco, Los Angeles and NYC.

  25. So the government imposes high taxes and still does not provide the basic services like education and emergency care. Then what is the point of a centralized government?

  26. "How can a recent graduate have 1 to 2 years of work experience!?" That is what an internship and part time job during college is for.

  27. How is a 1:9 male to female ratio in dating possible when the male to female ratio is close to 1.4 to 1?
    2
  28. This!

  29. The situation is different. China does not have the harsh cold like Siberia and the single people are men, not women.

  30. Worse yet is if their training resembles the Russian model. If their command structure is cut off, the soldiers can not act independently or re-establish a chain of command to coordinate the front line troops.

  31. Age or nationality is irrelevant for cannon fodder. Russia is using human wave tactics similar to WW2.

  32. The bullpup has a longer barrel so the manufacturer got lazy and reused the cartridge size. The PLA would be better off copying the M4 outright and focus on improving the tolerances to contain the gas between the barrel and the bullet to build up pressure to improve the bullet velocity.

  33. One telling conversation was with a government official threatening a man to which he replied, "What are you going to do to me or my family? I am single and have no kids. I am the last generation of my line." Imagine hundreds of millions of people with nothing to lose.

  34. That dude returning the nut bar is going to be on a watch list.

  35. The J35 uses less powerful and less reliable engines than the F35 or even the F15. Its stealth capabilities are unproven. It is also designed for carrier based operations. Why would Saudi Arabia buy it? They are better off buying F18 Super hornets, F16, Rafale, gripen or the Indian or Korean light fighters.

  36. This is just user error. Who is stupid enough to travel without checking beforehand on the official government site of which countries allow for visa free travel with your passport? Apparently, these people. Blogs and travel sites do not count.

  37. Bangladesh should sell their Chinese military gear to Russia to recoup some of their money.

  38. Part of men's attraction is fertility. They want their own family with children. After age 35, the risks of miscarriage increases dramatically as does birth defects. The other aspect is the higher the education, the more unrealistic the expectations of the woman. They even admit that they are not tolerant of many things. Men want peace. They do not need to marry someone who will nag them.

  39. So isn't this a win for the Bolivian government?

  40. I can see the allure besides the great immigration potential. Go fishing on both the Atlantic and Pacific on the same day.

  41. You mean to tell me Biden could have done this 3.5 years ago? Now I know the surge of illegals and fentanyl importation is intentional by the US government.

  42. If China tries to seize foreign assets, it is game over for the Chinese economy. Foreign direct investments will stop and companies will refuse to do business in China.

  43. Mount a Tow missile, SAM or Davy Crockett system on the flatbed of that tricycle and then we are talking real military hardware.

  44. These women show off their degrees and financial assets like a man but want their potential husbands to value her like a woman!? This is the feminist lie about an independent woman. High quality men do not care about those things because they already have the degrees, homes and cars. What they care about is if she can be a caring wife and a mother for the future children. Unfortunately at mid 30's, that possibly grows smaller with each day.

  45. I am OK with this. We do not need that kind of attitude in the gene pool.
    1
  46. These people are not starving. They steal because they can get away with it.
    1
  47. We should be encouraging all women to be honest with their demands up front like these women. Men and women will save a lot of time and money from dating people who are not marriage material.

  48. Even if you level the plateau, you are exposing the bedrock. You can not farm on bedrock. What had to break in someone's head to think that was a good idea?
    1
  49. You mean to tell me a woman that wants to be with a man without gold digging pretenses, want kids, wants a loving husband and will be a loving wife somehow trumps these domestic gold diggers!? Color me surprised.

  50. That is not the right way to do the math. Combat readiness at 0 hour would be whatever is on hand so assuming China did not slack off, the 3x advantage is with China. The situation shifts if the US can drag the conflict into a war of attrition. Then the flight hour maintenance of 10 vs 45 and 80 hours becomes advantageous for the US. Supply chains become irrelevant due to the proximity of South Korea, Philippines and Japan.
