Unless you fight back Trump will never respect you, and he’ll never stop taking advantage of you if he doesn’t respect you.

If China throws as much funding at biotech and medicine as at chips, then immortality for all?

I like how western audiences can't imagine a world where life extension could possibly be available to everyone.

This doesn't sound continuous at all, they obviously edited out contexts to make them sound like cartoon villains. A pity, I'd really like to hear how they'd have a smalltalk around such scifi issues.

I mean he tried to have his own parade which was really bad in quality. He knew it.

For all the crap democrats and most republicans say about him, he seems more aware than most of them. Compared to someone like Biden although to be fair I don't think Biden is even properly conscious.

As some guys who went to Dubai said, if you treat the Indians nice over there, they think something is wrong with you and will try to take advantage of you. That's why you should just do what the Arabs do and mistreat them and they will work properly knowing you are in charge.

On a side note, I'm surprised how well Arabs read Indians. Indians keep saying they are "Asians" trying to say they are affiliated with east Asians or SEA but I never hear them say much on how they are affiliated with west Asians (aka middle east) despite being more similar. Like in mentality, culture, looks and even religion with Islamic rule having a HUGE influence over India for centuries despite their denial. Afghanistan, Iran and to an extent even the Arab area has ruled major parts of India.

As the Anglos loves to say these days, medieval problems require medieval solutions.

I forgot if it was someone on this forum or Weibo comments section who mentioned that he had “a friend” who went to India and treated the lower caste porter very nicely and gave a very good tip. When they went to the hotel room, the porter not only did not respond gratefully but attempted to rape him! Luckily he is a gym bro and held off the attack before anything serious could happen. Basically, the porter was used to getting treated like dirt and when he got doted on for the first time in his life, he assumed that the Chinese man must be a male prostitute and even lower on the totem pole than he was.

I think that pretty much sums up the sort of mentality China is dealing with here.

I laughed for like 3 minutes at the bold part before I could compose myself to respond. There's a LOT going on there. The Indian was gay, assumed that the Chinese guy was also gay, and and went ahead with the rape attempt anyway despite the other guy being a muscular gym bro? LOL It's hard to wrap your head around all that...
