Taiwan bill looms, and it could pose ‘direct challenge’ for US-China ties

- Tensions are high, and the White House has tried to delay the Taiwan Policy Act that aims to upgrade ties with the island by designating it as a major non-Nato ally
- Observers say the bill ‘would overturn Sino-US relations’ and could prompt a stronger response from Beijing than House Speaker Pelosi’s visit to Taipei

I forgot to mention yesterday that despite under U.S. sanction, the Harbin Institute of Technology is ranked #5 in the world.

Surprised to see Singaporean universities rank so highly. What sort of engineering do they do in Singapore beyond financial chicanery "engineering"?

If you want to know why I find the whole Indian media and their idiotic morons deeply annoying is because of these insulting videos that heavy on propaganda, misinformation and disinformation with respect not only to China's supposed global ambitions (labeled here as expansionist, aggressive country guided by the sinister CCP) but also with it's historic rights/relationship to Taiwan.

It's difficult not wanting to punch this fella in the face due his misplaced hubris and flawed analysis. It's no wonder that most Indians who don't know any better get mislead by people like this that populates their media/business/academic/political/military landscape.

Are you a masochist? I see you repeatedly posting these brain dead things from Indian media. No need to get annoyed, just treat Indian media like Dumb and Dumber To (yes the second one). One of the few things the public can enjoy from 1MDB fund.

Most people have stopped caring about this war, but if it gets that bad Russia will just nuke America and Europe. There's no scenario where NATO wins in the Ukraine.

But I thought Russias conventional military was going trough NATO forces like hot knife goes trough butter, so what is with this nuke talk? Surely such powerful military doesn't need nukes against it's neighboring countries. Do I sense desperation? Maybe realization that Russia isn't as strong as you thought it was? This three day special operation is becoming somewhat long.

No, this is how internet idiocy works, not how war works

In a war things don't of then go as planned as Russians have found out. It's easy to start a war but harder to stop it.

This is the kind of brilliant analysis I come to SDF to read.

These media are toxins. I think you could appreciate them more. Yes they cause some irritations for us. But billions of people swim in it.

I think most of these people working in media actually are just plain incompetent and believe in this stuff. They have mouths to feed. so they just churn out unresearched shit.

I find really smart and capable people tend to be less anti-China. But even that, they tend to be much harder to deal with. An example would be Robert Zoellick. I recently read his book 'America in the world.' It's full of white washing. But it's very subtle. And his analysis on how the US leveraged its power to maneuver in the world was quite eye opening (though he is clearly biased in his domestic political views).

What I am saying is I have some to be very thankful that really smart and capable people in hostile countries are marginalized. The Universe is really watching out for us this time. Maybe they are just tired of the corrupt western domination.

I find Indian media to be hilarious. They try to ape western media outlets in presentation and mannerism, with a heavy oversaturation of graphics (all seemingly done in MS paint). It's more of a circus show to me than informational.

No Indian understands the first thing about Taiwan, they probably got their "analysis" from a reddit post.
