The Chongqinghotpot82 saga in this thread, as well as opinions from other Shanghainese people on the thread would disagree with you. Everyone here in forum constantly mocks Shanghainese people for being white worshipping cucks and who can blame them.
principally comes from the Australian government: most notably from its defence ministry in general, the Australian Signals Directorate (counterpart to America's NSA and Britain's GCHQ), and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, which just happens to be the parent ministry of the Australian Secret Intelligence Service (counterpart to America's CIA and Britain's MI6).
ASPI also receives funding from the US State Department, which is known to provide official covers for certain US government agencies.
Not to say any of the aforementioned entities encouraged, arranged or otherwise facilitated Bethany's exciting new role as ASPI's "."
However, if we're to "follow the money" as many of her fellow American journalists like to say, Bethany may not necessarily be all that different from many, if not the majority of her ASPI colleagues.

In which case China has not inflicted the kind of economic hurt that will make japs think twice. So far, only a seafood import ban and cutting tourists. All that bluster and tough talk from various ministries, embassies, strongly worded letters to the UN and ends up with this? China has the economic tools to hurt Japan, but it won’t because it’ll also affect China. So, a lack of determination.
And what’s happening now? A return to the status quo. Is that winning a standoff? China gave them face and an off ramp, prioritizing economic stability. Neither netherlands as a whole nor any dutch companies suffered any economic reprisals. Nor the executives that engineered it. German car companies had a production slowdown…for a week. And this was a situation where the dutch played a universally criticized move and China was well within its rights to make them pay.
That has nothing to do with the fishermen and more to do with his corruption. I would argue without his strongman image at China’s expense, he would’ve faced internal trouble even sooner.
China could be soft on all these countries for “economic stability”, but it absolutely cannot be soft on archenemy japan. Every country is watching this as well. If China doesn’t take decisive action this time, it’ll end up besieged on all sides on multiple issues over the coming years. A dragon, tangled up by a dozen snakes.

According to the West, soft power cannot be gained though force or incentive like money, yet here because they claim China is motivated by using green technology to gain soft power, they still make it sound like there's something wrong and nefarious going on. If it was the West who was the leader in green technology, there would be no question nor any challenge allowed to the West's motivations being for the good for all.
