  1.  @ChinaSongsCollection  hey, why don’t you tell us what’s going on in Xinjiang to demonstrate for us that you aren’t the nationalist (or vvumao) that is unable to criticize China?

  2.  @黄沙百战穿金甲  Free Xinjiang! Free Tibet! Free Hong Kong! Free West Taiwan!

  3.  Chí Phèo nguyễn  you aren’t very smart if you think communist countries like the USSR, China etc didn’t interfere with capitalist nations. Both sides did the same...and who easily won? The capitalist west because their economic policies were more successful

  4.  Chí Phèo nguyễn  bro, you dumb or what? Covid19 is 2020 and we are talking about the Soviets and communist China (before they turned capitalist). What’s going on with you?!? Communist China and USSR were not governments that cared for their people. Stalin and Mao each killed tens of millions of their own people!!

  5.  @propro2211  and There is also India and Bangladesh. Chinas growth is shrinking fast.

  7. Did he say Poo research center instead of Pew?

  8.  @Bill-zp2mt  Donald trump is a case of its own. This channel is hard on the Bernie types and Trump types. So if it’s strongly left, why are they hard on Bernie and AOC? Lots of right of center in Europe also dislike trump. Iirc, around 30% of conservative voters in the UK would pick trump over Biden and 70% chose Biden

  9. Vice News caught on video Chinas massive bribing operation tied to the leader of guayana. If Guyana is so easily corrupted, this tells me Guyana will just be another Venezuela- never turning the oil into big profits for the people.

  10. It’s not doing better than most of European economies — it shrank 3% last year. And the gdp is misleading because Russia spent $100 billion in the war which is considered part of gdp. That’s nearly 6% of gdp so their actual gdp minus the war would be -9% or even lower.

  11. Totally believe the guy criticizing Ukraine and defending China frequently in other comments. Totally believe you.

  12.  @GeoScorpion  great point. After ww1, you didn’t see many countries trying to conquer new lands. In ww2 you saw Soviets, Germany, Italy and Japan trying to conquer new lands. In immediate aftermath of ww2, Soviets took by force either incorporated into USSR or occupied puppet states almost all of Eastern Europe (Yugoslavia appeared to be independent but they were already friendly with Soviets). The US and UK basically gave the freedom to west Germany, France, Italy, China, and basically all the territory they freed from Germans and Japanese. China then took Tibet and today is trying to take not only Taiwan but South China Sea and East Sea. Russia today is trying to take Ukraine.

  14.  @azoshin  I'm sure you know but Kurosai006 was arguing in bad faith. It's almost like they ignored everything you wrote and stuck to a script

  15.  @mclilzenthepoet2331  the economic policies are also very different among the two though but the social issues are the much bigger divide now. Economically the Democrats support higher taxes and bigger government spending than Republicans

  16.  @hughjass1044  If it happens, it won't be a case of fighting and winning indepdence. But Moscow will not allow it anytime soon so a peaceful breakaway from any is not likely to happen in the foresable future. 100 years from now, sure it has some possibly but still small IMO.

  17.  @kdawg9477  "they cannot be everywhere at the same time" except that the only places that would breakaway are a handful of territories. They don't have to be everywhere.

  18.  @PlumSack79  they always show up for any content about China. It’s probably from the same CCP farm

  19.  @TheGoldenEagle03  Yes, they actually have a bond that is much more trusthworthy. They West is united and with mostly a common goal. Rafael from Moscow needs to ask himself why nearly all the top 40 in the democracy index are the west and it's allies?

  21. Long term it’s hard to tell because short term, it’s easy to turn some of those profits to the most obviously needed infrastructure. But as I pointed out, China has a massive bribing operation in Guyana caught on video. This means It’s likely little by little will be draining away at Guyanas potential and they will hit a ceiling at some point unless they rid corruption in their government.

  22.  @lvd8122  there is video from Vice news of a massive bribing operation of China inside of Guyana so the future doesn’t look good. Right now it’s easy go spend on the easiest infrastructure projects but a decade from now, such corruption will eat away at their potential.

  23. This video and many others on this give you china 101 explanation but there are channels giving much more specific content on this issue.

  24.  @tiagogomes3807  no where else in the world outside of China has construction of homes been used like China has them. Where 70% of savings are put, 30% of gdp, and far far more homes than homes needed. Many cities in China have cost of homes 50x or higher than the local incomes. 5 of the top 8 highest cities in the world are in China alone. What that means is that a drop in the housing in China will be much bigger effect than just anywhere else in the world.

  25. This is much worse than trump. Trump just tried to suggest to his supporters to do a coup — Castillo actually tried It himself.

  26.  @jeffs4483  but why do you defend Castillo coup attempt? Authoritarian leftist are the w0rst. I see you in other comments calling it a coup against Castillo

  27.  @noahjohnson935  The biggest problem with that thinking of those people is that the truth slowly erodes and eventually they are just brain (cant combine words - washed.

  28.  @noahjohnson935  Example of Putin. he helped out initially by stabilizing the country though a big part was just the fact oil prices doubled in his few few years. Overtime, they have had stagnant economy with rights eroded. Now, they believe that their current situation is the best it will get because that the only thing they hear in their media.

  29. @MSD Group nothing you stated makes sense. Russia is the one having serious fiscal issues — did you not watch the part where Russia increase revenues 10% but costs by 20%?

  30.  @goldenpharaoh  nato didn’t set up shop in Ukraine. Eastern Europe CHOSE to join NATO because they fear Russia. Russia in 2022 just proved that if it’s former colonies didnt join NATO, Russia was indeed a threat to invade and will keep its colonies puppets. Cuban missile crisis is something uneducated people bring up. That was only a few years after the nuclear weapons became a thing and it wasn’t known if nuclear powers would attack each other. We have 60 more years of experience regarding that and we realized MAD (mutual assured destruction) was going to prevent nukes from being used Liz Do you really think the Russia doesn’t have nukes in subs in striking distance of the US?!?!

  31. A blockade of Taiwan would mean China would have to attack the US and it’s Allie’s. So at that point, China has lost.

  32.  @emperorjonz9590  “abusing freedom of navigation”…you mean by attacking American ships that will force their way into Taiwan to support Taiwan. I don’t think you are even thinking this through — you seem to suggest that China will out large scale ships preventing American ships from passing through all around Taiwan as if the US would then not go through. Let me ask you, just to make sure you aren’t extremely pro China bias “emperor Jonz”, what is going on in Xinjiang? Would you admit it something that starts with ‘gên’ and ends in ‘ocide’?
    2
  33.  @Verpal  emperor Jonz is a Chinese govt Vumao. “Abusing the freedom of navigation”…he thinks the US and taiwans Allie’s will simply not go to Taiwan because China has hundred ships surrounding Taiwan? The US already regularly sends ships in areas that China and others illegally claim so that freedom of navigation is ensured. The US and it’s allies will not allow China to claim all waters around Taiwan so China will literally have to fire on American ships to claim the waters.

  34.  @emperorjonz9590  don’t forget to let us know what is happening in Xinjiang so we know empeoror Jonz isn’t a puppet of the PRC

  35.  @Verpal  maritime militias? The ones that the US blew by with ships? And you think that after the US said they will help Taiwan, they will not send aid through a blockade? It’s up to china to attack the US. Furthermore, you are aware the US has by far the superior navy? Add in that Japan (arguably 3rd strongest navy) would join and maybe even France and England (so 4 of the top 5 or 6 navyies). Yes, China can disrupt shipping but unless they attack the US/Japanese/allies ships, they won’t have a true blockade. Do you think the US would just not send any aid through blockade? And how will China enforce that blockade? I don’t know why you people refuse to just say it — China will indeed need to attack US ships to have a blockade.

  36. 1:17 why is Meloni speaking Spanish in this speech? Was it in Spain? Or just a coincidence that part of the speech was Italian where all or almost all the words are the same as Spanish?

  39. Also, guy work for Beijing. You seem to defend them or criticize countries that China dislikes

  40.  @Naveen-tq7cg  Doubts. You are repeating Beijing ad Moscow talking points.
    2
  41.  @Naveen-tq7cg  "The fact that Beijing/Moscow bring these points up doesn't automatically discredit them" no, but it's not true as you descirbed it and it says a lot about you repeating talking points from them. " but it's an active decision to outsource your garbage." And yet China has worse regulation than even the US. So for the same good made, China is polluting a lot more. Maybe you would agree that China is only allowed to sell goods to other countries if it meets their environmental standards? Or at least on goods that go to the west? So a tariff on all Chinese goods that don't meet western environmental standards? You agree with that?
    2
  42.  @Naveen-tq7cg  "I would be open to tariffs on highly polluting products. A flat tariff rate on a nation based on per capita emissions however makes close to no sense." It would have to be a flat tariff for all polluting products based on China's (or whoever else) NOT enacting environmental regulations that match the west and NOT following through with those environmental regulations if they were enacted. So China has to pass a min level of environmental regulations and actually follow through on the policy to avoid the tariffs. That would be easier than actually trying to calculate the emissions produced by each product You mentioned the west is just exporting it's pollution so this would mostly solve that specific issue about exporting pollution. We aren't talking about individual pollutions - that isn't what is exported.

  43.  @landsknecht8654  I’m avoiding using racist or racism spelled out because they often get removed by YT like this comment is likely only to appear in your notification but no one else will see it. At least on of your comments you made also don’t show up. In fact the very comment I replied to where you said trump isn’t one is not showing up

  45.  @Kevin-mk6jo  If you actually think the Iranian regime is more trustworthy than the the Israeli regime with nukes, then maybe you’re the type that still wishes the man with the little mustache had won ww2.

  46.  @youtubeoppressivecensorshi8047  is you’re username related to how so many comments don’t show up? Or something else?

  47.  @nexi1083  So you're basically telling me that you agree with gen-cide of Kosovo? That Serbia was good to it and anyone that tried to help is in the wrong?

  48. Why praise Ashley for committing treason? You hate America?

  49.  @francisstephenperalta2823  wake up and see what facts? That’s Ashley tried to break into the capitol with an armed crowd while congress was in session? Why do you support t-rr0rist?

  50.  @Venezolano410  I’m Mexican (born in Mexico but raised in the US). I’ve traveled to 10 Latin American countries. I can tell you that there are indeed a lot of cultural similarities among many Spanish speaking Latin American countries. Again, this is a comparison to other regions. Are you saying that Costa Rica and Mexico are less similar than Niger and Uganda? Please answer and don’t ignore (which you will because you will realize you have no argument).
