Wang Huning (right) met with Andrew Hsia vice chairman of the KMT, in Beijing Today.

Next month, groups of wanwanese will go to Beijing, these include Taiwanese chamber of commerce and other industry groups... They are going to "smooth things out" as English Veggie & gang's provocations have resulted in bans on wanwan goods & produce, wanwan trade figures reflect this, Dec 2022 exports slumped 23% YoY, so they're feeling the pain.

1- The US still has slavery legal if the person is convicted. Read the 13th amendment. This is why there is prison labor.

2- The US doesn't ban child labor. Many jobs are available to 14-18 year olds and minimum wage is lower for them in a lot of cases. There are jobs like newspaper delivery with no minimum age limits. So this new legislation isn't illegal at all. They are just relaxing some restrictions. Child labor is already legal and practiced commonly.

As you learn more about the USA more you realize how different the country is from what the Hollywood pushes.

Just watched the video you linked in its entirety and then proceeded to read the reactions in the comment section provided by bots, deep state bots, real people, and trolls. I noticed that there's 1 user who keeps repeating the same comment over and over again which essentially blames the reporter for the fiasco. But since Americans are increasingly brain dead and brainwashed to be anti-China it didn't take long for someone/bot to insert China into their train wreck. I find it hilarious.
I've been wondering the same thing recently. How many of these comments are real? AI like chatGPT is very good now and could be responsible for many of these one post comments.

Sites like twitter and reddit are filled with so much sinophobia (and Russophobia), yet I don't know anyone in real life with the sort of views you see online.

"gLoBaL bR1Ta1n" be acting like an immature snob:


If the UK arrests the Xinjiang governor (who is an Uyghur himself), then China certainly can reciprocate in kind.

Absent from these articles is any indication as to why Erkin Tuniyaz is visiting the UK in the first place.

It should also be noted that these calls for the UK government to deny the visit or arrest him are coming from Conservative MPs and party figures. That is not to say that they will determine government policy, but they are not fringe activist figures either.
