People face discrimination and injustice everywhere. It happens to people of all ethnicities in the US, just as minorities in other nations do. Does Indian's being CEOs help them get discriminated any less in the US? It does not, just as more Chinese CEO's won't help lessen the discrimination/injustice of Chinese in the US.

You are just so out of touch with reality and how society works that its pointless arguing. University student that haven't been out in the real world yet?

I think the most damning evidence is Barack Obama as a black US president failed to improve discrimination of black people. The reason is not complicated. Class > nationality > race. Barack Obama needs to answer to people of his class first. Those people are closer to him than random ghetto black people. Here are some examples of this rule:

Class > nationality

Russian Oligarchs will happily undermine the nation if they can profit together with American oligarchs, and vice versa. Class interest overrides national interests, the reverse is rarely true.

Nationality > race

American ruling class and Russian ruling class are both at odds with each other despite both being white. African American soldiers served with white soldiers in 60s against national enemies like Vietnam. In cold war US worked with Chinese and Japanese against Russian white ruling class. When the interests do not conflict, being same race helps. There was a brief friendly relation in the early 2000s. Being same race helps forgiving each other faster but do not override national interest. National interest overrides racial interest.

They'll have to get used to it. The release of the Huawei Mate 60 is like the Battle of Stalingrad, and we all know what happened to the fascists after that. It is the beginning of the end of American hegemony (fascism) and they know it.

why not Taiwan.

Considering that the Taiwanese economy directly benefitted from the integration with the fast developing mainland, are you suggesting India, Philippines and other countries do the same thing and also heavily invest in China and eventually become a Chinese province?

I am posting way too much Germany content nowadays but they deserve it. This is the ultimate Darwin award:

Meanwhile, their energy policy and its result. I am posting a Quora comment of mine:

Also Germany has scant regards for people connections. Turkey lost bid to Japan in 2013 for 2020 Olympics in Round 2 by wide margin. this cannot happen without european consensus against Turkey. and this behavior was noted by others who invest in european sports. infact giving Olympics to Turkey would have prevented other problems later.

I dont think this US class system applies to Russia and nor is white skin exclusive to one ethinic in Russia.
Putin with Kadyrov son. the rest you can judge from location. Green is following Saudi flag. they want to show 100 years of a city that now become important and they really spend money on it and it has muslim influence. I think Putin consider Ukranian culture inferior as he send those ukranian kids to summer camps around Caspian Sea and he want South to embrace new regions.

Everything MSM accused China of doing is actually a common practice in the West such as political prosecution of having a Chinese girl friend.

Finance Minister Riikka Purra's (Finns) plans to appoint journalist Jari Kuikanmäki as her media relations advisor have fallen through following a background check by the Finnish Security and Intelligence Service (Supo).

The decision was first

by tabloid Iltalehti.

In an interview with the newspaper, Kuikanmäki said that Supo highlighted a number of issues during his security clearance check, including his partner's former Chinese nationality, a trip to China in 2016, the Chinese nationalities of his partner's parents, and a trip to Finland in 2017.

"We met in London in 2011 and have been together ever since. We moved to Finland in 2013," Kuikanmäki told the tabloid, adding that his partner is now a Finnish citizen, with no criminal record, and has lived in Finland for over 10 years.

IL noted that Kuikanmäki's common-law spouse became a Finnish citizen in 2022, and is no longer a Chinese citizen, as China does not recognise dual citizenship.

Kuikanmäki told Yle that it is still unclear to him why this connection to China has prevented him from taking up the role as Minister Purra's advisor.

"I don't quite know what has happened. It seems to me that there are dimensions to this case that would require an assessment of whether discrimination has taken place, but it is not for me to make that assessment," Kuikanmäki said.

The government's office carries out security checks on all individuals appointed to the role of ministerial special advisor, as a matter of protocol.

That is now, and this was then:

I read about 5 comments after the yahoo article, which was re-posted from WaPo. The copium is palpable even with only 5 commends.

10 years of jail time is reasonable next time for those Hong Kong rioters.

Good, while China has the largest forex reserves in the world, its holding of US treasuries is at a 14-year low.

Of course typical Western arrogance thinking they can speak for others even when its not what was said. "That's what you meant to say..."

The same mentality where the West places sanctions and bans on others but somehow they think they're doing it for the good for everyone so it means no one can retaliate against them. They openly say they want to cancel China because they can't compete. It has nothing to do with it being for the good of humanity. The Western system can't compete when there are competitors. That's what's happening now. The West is worried about supply chain issues like never before because for once they don't dominate the world economically. Americans take that for granted because in their ignorance they're told they have everything and are not dependent on anyone else. They wouldn't be worried over supply chain issues as they are if that were true. They can't get what they need because they have to pay under the principles of supply and demand. You know... capitalism. The thing they go to war with others to defend. Everything cost more for them to do every step of the way. They can brag about finding new rare earth deposits all they want but every step of processing and refining multiplies the costs many times over more than China to do.

The Western left likes to ignore China's contributions to green technology saying China is not doing it from the heart. They're doing it for the money. The same can be said of the West when it comes to human rights. They only do it to cover-up how they're greatest criminals against humanity that history will ever know. The concept of human rights only came around in the West because if they didn't embrace it, communists during the Cold War were going to use their colonialism against them. And what set off the alarms to have that happen was 1949 Chinese communist revolution against Western imperialism. Do you really think in this day and age any Westerner who calls the rest the rest of the world a jungle while they live in a garden cares about humanity from the heart? The British like to claim they ended slavery on their own as if that says how more civilized they are. How about before that? It's like no crime ever happened if they some day they stopped committing the crime with anyone forcing them.
