  1.  @Simqer  If you think that Serpentza recommends living in China nowadays you haven't watched him.

  2. A little off topic, but my brother's first wife was Korean. He was visiting us in Illinois and wanted me to teach her how to drive. Her English was pretty good, but I hadn't spent enough time with her to be fully confident about my ability to effectively and rapidly communicate with her in an emergency. We were driving on a remote country road which had a right angle jog in it, hard right, then back left to resume going east. As we were coming up on it I said "You'll have to slow down for this turn ahead." ....Nothing..."You should start slowing down now." ....Nothing..."Take your foot off the accelerator and put it on the brake NOW!" Just in time, she did. I was preparing to slam the brakes myself.

  3. Because it draws attention to the human trafficking and general lawlessness on the border.

  5. "But Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, Google means Everything for the Westerner, I Guess ~LOL~" +ZHIXIANG Lou says while spamming posts on You Tube. Apparently it does not mean as much to the rest of us as it does to him, based on his amount of posts.

  6. Vietnam lost. It was conquered by a foreign sponsored communist despot.

  7. +#Unpresidented #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner You're not sure whether it is better to enrich and deal with a communist country that is aggressive to neighbor and citizen alike, or a democracy and an ally?

  8. Bought an old house in a small town for 14k (US), no significant acreage, just the lot.

  9. ​ @CapriOne3  This is not a case of fighting back. Rather it is naked oppression. The people doing the murders were not oppressed by anybody but the leaders they support, the current government of South Africa. The people being murdered didn't oppress anybody. PERSONAL freedom is the only meaningful sort. "Group freedom" is invariably a smoke screen for tyranny. Taiwan votes to maintain its democracy, group freedom says mainland China owns them because they're Chinese. Northern Ireland votes to remain in the UK, group freedom says Ireland owns them because they're Irish. Many Blacks in the US vote Republican, Joe Biden and many other Democrats say the Democrat Party owns them because they're Black. (My! That sounds familiar!) Hitler says the destiny of Germany is important and Germans are being oppressed, he proceeds to steal other countries and murder racial minorities. Legitimate political organizations group to protect personal freedom from threats. That is the lone and essential purpose of government: to FORCE people to mind their own business. Because left to themselves, THEY WILL NOT. Bigotry is a leftist value. You will attack someone because of his identity in groups you define and your victim has no choice about and will seek to punish him for "collective" crimes he hasn't personally committed.

  10.  @bjornagaintobywilde  No. "Picketing" involves some sort of communication, like a sign or word spoken aloud. That would, in a free country, still be a legal activity, of course, but it is not what the victim was doing.

  11.  @Chosenjin1  "It's not helpful at all to talk about race in this conversation." The folk who said "kill the whites" are the ones that brought up the subject. And the immediate subject is whites being killed for being white. Obviously, we're not going to fix or mitigate the situation if we're not allowed to talk about it. But, you knew that. "we need a real economic reform." Certainly the South African economy is a basket case. This is because of the economic and RACIAL policies of the South African government, the senior members of which are very rich indeed. These are the current and decades long oppressors of South Africa, who divert the resentment they have legitimately earned toward an outsider group with no political power. Perhaps this situation would never have arisen if Apartheid had never been. But the current victims didn't cause either Apartheid or the current economic or criminal disaster. Only the South African government is in a position to reform the economy. And a transfer of farm property from productive farmers to friends of the government is not economic reform. It's the same recipe for famine that decimated Rhodesia. The current course will not bode well for anyone but the black ruling elite who busy themselves feasting on the flesh of the country they're destroying. The white minority will be murdered and the black majority will starve. THIS is the status quo you're defending. Shame on you.

  15. Aggressive driving in the US is a big city, especially an east coast thing.

  16.  @cnelsonlv99  "What does Made in China have to do with the war in Ukraine?" China is supporting the Russian economy by trade circumventing the sanctions and helping the Russians to sustain their war effort. "Do you know who started the war in Ukraine?" Russia. "You come across as someone who is incredibly gullible..." All appearances aside, You ARE an apologist for aggression.

  17.  @cnelsonlv99  "Like I said... gullible! Honestly, that's too kind!" Come on, tell me what you really think. I can take it ,doc! And you didn't tell us normies your "edge lord" answer to your question. And whether it was the same people who started the Russian invasion of Georgia or Crimea. And isn't your hero Putin such a dupe for letting himself be manipulated by these "dark forces"?

  18. They're not paying 50K for a visa, they are paying to be smuggled in. Not every Chinese person can marry you.

  20.  @jjbv2147  "He never uttered a word" If you'll search through his back catalogue you'll find that's not true. I know he dedicated at least one episode to the deteriorating situation in SA, including the murders. This IS a China channel, that's true, and there's nothing wrong with that. Why shouldn't he talk about it now that it's in the news? It is a better use of effort to comment on a subject when folk are most interested in it. As for talking about South Africa when he LIVED IN CHINA, why don't YOU try that? The Chicoms are thick as thieves with the oppressive SA government.

  21.  @DANIEL-fp2uq  "Aparthe1d ended in 1994." And those still alive are the ones that ended it. It was a decision made when only whites had the franchise, it's not like there was a revolution or a coup.

  22. They were banned because they were wise to socialism. They don't want that sort getting citizenship and voting.

  24. China is bad for the entrepreneur as well as the working class. There is no real place to invest there when the government owns all the land. They'd rather cash in and start from scratch someplace where there is no artificial limits on their success.

  25. That's exactly what he said. It was always illegal for him to do anything a Chinese could do.

  28. Yes, that is the explicit rule, with the "yield to the right" resolving ties.

  29.  @normal_side  "The answer is Apartheid system, where the majority are denied" "ARE denied"? Are you aware that Apartheid began to be dismantled in the 1980s and the last vestige of it was eliminated in the 1990s, and it was eliminated by a government elected when only whites had the franchise? That only those white folk in their 40s and older have adult memory of Aparthied, and they are the ones who voted it out? My apologies if English is not your native language and you don't understand English tenses.

  30. No, mutually exclusive cultural pluralism is not a strength, but a million each from the far east, latin America, and Europe is a lot less of a threat to our cultural continuity than 3 million from latin america.
