  1.  @T00Busy113  totally not on a contract — yet 100% as suspected defend china on Xinjiang. Vvumao. The UNHCR report? You do know that the person who went to China literally said it wasn’t an investigation? You do know she didn’t actually visit many of the camps? She has said it was meeting to open dialogue. So what Do you expect of the report? And what’s blown out proportion by the west? Very strong evidence: 1. Chinas plan to mass arrest Muslims in Xinjiang for infractions that are basically being or practicing Islam 2. 380+ camps built in recent years where millions have been sent 3. Evidence of forced labor at many of these camps 4. Former Xinjiang cop confirming mass torture which was documented by mass numbers of Uyghurs. 5. torture also described in hacked Xinjiang police files. Same files also said they will shoot to kill anyone trying to escape camps 6. Picture evidence of 2/3 of mosques destroyed or damaged over past 5-7 years 7. Forced sterilization of Uyghurs So, how is this not a horrible thing?

  2.  @jeremydevor7004  I agree, if Ukraine can cut through the middle, Crimea and the western parts of Russia controlled Ukraine will be Ukraine's. I don't see Ukraine ever taking Donbass region in a military fight because it's too well fortified and bordering Russia will be too well supplied. At best it will be part of some agreement IMO where possibly Russia gives up the Donbas in return for certain concessions for Russia to save face and possibly in return for the west undoing all sanctions.

  3.  @retkvi  no idea why your comment doesn’t show. YT Zia weird. But yeah, the outcome can be very bad for Putin if he starts losing more of the captured territory. But given his control of the media and information, he might just find a way to keep getting support. Remember it started as a special operation to get rid of the n-zis in Ukraine? Now they call it a war, had a mobilization, and haven’t mentioned n-zi in a while changing the story that it’s now about the west aggression. I’ve watched many videos on 1420 channel where they talk to Russians on the streets and 3/4 of them just believe what Putin says.

  4.  @Miniorpernik  Japan bought a very small amount (relative to their usage) above cap (not above market price). From a report " Despite the concession, Russian natural-gas imports to Japan are relatively small, accounting for around one-tenth of Japan’s supply and a fraction of Russia’s output, the Wall Journal reports". It was also approved by the US..."Japan has begun purchasing Russian crude oil above the $60-a-barrel cap, breaking with Western allies thanks to an exception authorized by the United States. "

  5.  @Miniorpernik  So, you have any more false info you want to spread? How's Moscow today?

  6.  @Miniorpernik  Oh, they are only buying it at $70, $10 more than the cap but below market rate. "The nations granted an exception to the $60-a-barrel cap through September for oil purchased by Japan. And in the first two months of this year, Japan bought around 748,000 barrels of Russian oil for approximately $70 a barrel."

  8. No, they cannot starve Taiwan without attacking US and Allies. You won’t answer how they can starve Taiwan without attacking the US and Allies ships

  9. So hard to break this cycle once they allowed the cartels to become too powerful

  10. Mexico has too much corruption and consistently has a government that just wants to give money away to the poor rather than use the money to build up infrastructure, improve education, and and make more business friendly environment. Almost all the success stories in Asia were from that playbook. Until Mexico makes proper reforms and spends the money on things that will improve business and trade, mexico will just have modest gains relative to Asia.

  11.  @bighands69  The US has lots of checks of balances. I do think they are eroding but still, it's much better than Mexico.

  13.  @shreyanshverma2295  Hey, it's the anti west guy again! Federal Reserve doesn't have to be 100% transparent to be much better and much more transparent than one run by China. Why do your types always use Nirvana Fallacy?

  14.  @jimgriffiths9071  The US has plenty of Unskilled labor but I'm not sure what that has to do with Venezuela. Now you're talking about refugees and not the govt of Venezuela? Caribbean has enough oil to see us thrus till fusion -- but this is about Cuba specifically not the whole Caribbean.

  15.  @Evan-iq8hd  US would be insane to trust cuba or Venezuela. Both are dictatorships that oppress (violently) any opposition. Putin and China have shown oppressive autocracies can’t be trusted

  16.  @Evan-iq8hd  US does it (in recent years) when it’s entirely necessary. Literally the point of the video. Did you not watch it? When 2/3 of the world are oppressive regimes, you can’t alienate all the oppressive regimes. Tr0/| harder

  17.  @Evan-iq8hd  it happens 73% of the time? The biggest enemies of the US are dictatorships or similar governments so why make it up? The closest friends of the US are almost all democracies with good human rights from Europe to Canada Japan South Korea Australia New Zealand etc. if you’re lame argument made sense, then the close allies of the US would be mostly dictatorships or other non democratic countries. Just like how Chinas closest friends are almost all non democratic countries.

  18. But Hattians can't help Haiti. It's a failed state. They will need outside support but nobody wants to be dragged into that mess.

  19.  @eabutler6861  " Americans supporting Poppa Doc in the 60's and 70's.". How? He was 'democratically' elected then consolidated power and the US halted economic aid in the early 60's. So he had already made himself a quasi autocrat on his own and against the US wishes.

  20.  @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. Look at 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. But overtime, they have had stagnant economy with rights eroded. Now, they believe that their current situation is the best it will get because they bought all the false info from Putin.

  22. The US share of global trade dropped from 40%+ to about 25% today so some drop is likely. Euro has certainly take some of that though that has now flattened.
    1
  23.  @tobiwan001  The Economics Explained video I just watched mentioned 25% but maybe it was % of GDP and not global trade. The importance is the trend -- the share of global trade and share of global GDP for the US is dropping so it's expected to be used less just based on that. But Yuan is only increasingly marginally so it certainly has no chance of competition with the US dollar.

  25. ​ @recoil53  "He didn't say it was a necessary step, " I didn't either. II literally spent the rest of that post after the first sentence showing how a an auto mfg industry does help a lot and why we often see an economy take off when their auto industry flourishes. For the most part, you basically repeated everything I said where I discussed how auto industry requires a lot of suppliers and that the labor is generally higher wage. So we agree.

  26. China has a right to punish other and others have a right to punish China. So that includes sanctions against those involved with the conc camps in China, forming alliances around China to help constrain China, sanctioning China if it chooses to help Russia more than it already has, and giving Taiwan all the weapons it needs to fight off China.

  27.  @sjv9147s  which conc camps? The ones in Xinjiang. Gitmo is a prison for terrorist that has held a total of 800 different people over all the years . Xinjiang camps are where millions of innocent have been sent. Of course a 50 cent Beijing worker epodo say they are the same.

  28.  @sjv9147s  Saudi ruling king and those at the top didn’t have anything to do with 9/11. Yes, it was was saudis in the planes and it was orchestrated out of Afghanistan. Taliban could have given up the AQ organization but they protected them for years. You’re just going through your CCP playbook.

  29.  @sjv9147s  “have you been there (Xinjiang)”. Lol, another one that all the Beijing workers use. I’ve been to China many times but I don’t need to go to Xinjiang to know what’s happening like you don’t need to go to 1930’s Germany to know what happened to the Jews and others in the camps. You’ve never been to Xinjiang let alone visited the camps so why bring it up? Oh, because it’s next on the list from the playbook. Want to talk about 1800’s slavery to justify forced labor in the conc camps of Xinjiang in 2022? That’s also next. Oh, want to talk about police in the US? That’s also next. Then after that, “western media isn’t better than China media because Fox News exist”. You guys repeat the same lame arguments

  30.  @sjv9147s  what truth? That you haven’t visited the Xinjiang facilities? That foreigners and journalists are blocked from getting near most of those facilities?
    1
  31.  @sjv9147s  death camps in Georgia? Well certainly you have gps locations of the facilities, massive number of testimonies from people who have been in there, leaked Georgia documents detailing their plans, etc? Do you?

  32.  @sjv9147s  look up “Where Did the One Million Figure for Detentions in Xinjiang’s Camps Come From?” From Chinafile website. It details the Many pieces of evidence and it’s from 2018! So another few years have passed so well over a million!

  33.  @sjv9147s  oh, so you don’t have any source on the Georgia claim but there are plenty on Xinjiang? Wow, you really proved to be Beijing worker

  34.  @sjv9147s  why are you such a sad person? Has to be better ways to make money than to defend conc camps.

  35.  @sjv9147s  you went to the camps? Wow, upload the video as evidence then. And you just outed yourself as Han supremacist by comparing Uyghurs to rabbits
    1
  36.  @sjv9147s  standard of proof? Just satellite images of the facilities, mass number of testimonies, public CCP documents, leaked CCP documents, and discussions with local officials. The only thing missing is china publicly confirming it. Are you saying you don’t believe any evidence if it’s not publicly confirmed by China? Lol!

  37.  @sjv9147s  still waiting on your evidence about Georgia

  38.  @sjv9147s  rock solid evidence? Like satellite images of the facilities, mass number of testimonies, public CCP documents, leaked CCP documents, and discussions with local officials. The only thing missing is china publicly confirming it. Are you saying you don’t believe any evidence if it’s not publicly confirmed by China? Lol!

  39.  @sjv9147s  " if you don't already know you can't prove a negative" Actually you can. That's exactly what the courts do. One side is trying to prove the other side is guilty while the accused is trying to show evidence they are not guilty. If you are accused of committing a crime at X location, one side presents evidence of the crime and that you were there while the other presents evidence they weren't there. Surely you know this? or as a quick google search shows, " It is possible to prove rather specific negative claims that are made with rather well defined limits. If the area to be searched is well defined and of a reasonable size that permits searching then a negative claim might be capable of being proven."

  40.  @sjv9147s  "You see, the million innocent lives lost on that whitish powder lie is a universal fact" Like 50 million lost lives in China from Mao. And 20 million in USSR because of Stalin. Or millions lost due to Japan in early 1900's.

  41.  @sjv9147s  Holocaust is still a fraction of those that died from Mao.

  42.  @sjv9147s  can’t prove an negative? I quoted you that you can.

  43.  @sjv9147s  Give you a fraction of what? That 6 million Jews killed in Holocaust is 6/50th (3/25) of how many died from Mao?

  44.  @sjv9147s  you’re post sounds so much like someone who speaks Chinese as a first language and learned very technical English instead of common English. What claim do you want a source on?

  45.  @sjv9147s  I’m still waiting…

  46.  @sjv9147s  I asked you what claim you want a source on and you respond that I don’t know what “source” means? Ha ha, peak tr0||.

  47.  @sjv9147s  what are you referring to when you mention chronologically? You have to be specific because one can’t tell which of the many arguments made between us is relevant to the “chronologically”

  48.  @sjv9147s  you’re praising Orban of Hungary in other comments so it’s obvious you’re a horrible horrible person

  49.  @Verpal  going to reiterate the last point — do you think the US will not try to get ships through if China uses that militia navy? And how will China enforce such a blockade without attacking the US and ally ships? Why are you people refusing to acknowledge it will take china attacking US (and allies) ships to have an actual blockade?
    1
  50.  @Verpal  “not official militias” so they will be destroyed easily by the US with no repercussion from China? Or they will be fully considered part of China and China will face repercussions on how that militia acts. So in the first, they don’t do an actual blockade. In the second, China will have to attack the US to have an actual blockade. “Whilst yes the US will be able to send some ships through, that’s not my point”. But that is THE point of all of this. The OP started by discussing a blockade of Taiwan and I have been pointing out that for an actual blockade to occur, China will HAVE to attack US ships (and Allies such as Japan, UK and France or whoever joins). You agree on that part? Oh, and if those militias try to do a blockade on Taiwan, they will certainly be destroyed easily so all of that point is moot. It’s just a small temporary hold on shipping as the US destroys those ships
