The British dug up the sacred mummies of the ancient pharaohs of Egypt. The British looted and kept countless amounts of priceless Chinese treasures. So, off course it is very funny to see some random Chinese scrapper scrap British WW2 wrecks. Hahaha!I wonder how those who find the PoW salvage story so funny would feel the same if people were digging up the graves of Chinese soldiers killed in WW2 to sell relics for profit? Remember, the sailors on HMS Repulse and PoW were fighting China's enemy too.
Yeah the HMS Repulse was on the same side as China, fighting the Japanese. But that ship wasn't sent to help defend China. It was sent to defend British Malaya. Let me remind you about those thousands of Chinese labourers who dug up trenches for the British soldiers in WW1. Without them, many more British soldiers would have fallen to machine gun fire and artillery. Britain promised China Qingdao in return for it's contribution to the war. Instead, Qingdao was given to Japan after the Brits won WW1. Those ungrateful c**ts!
Don't talk about the world wars with the Asians, we all know that the British were no heroes in the WW2 Pacific theater. How fast the white British ran when the Japanese came. Leaving the non-white subjects of the Empire to their fate. We all remember how the British allied with the communist insurgents in Malaya to fight the Japanese, only to turn on them after the war was won. The Chinese fought 70% of the Imperial Japanese Army. The Soviets destroyed 70% of the Nazi war machine. The Allied victory on the Western European Theater and the Pacific Theater would not have been possible without the costly sacrifices of the Soviet Union and China.
Double standards. I get it. Paul Allen is American, white, and rich. Therefore he gets a pass to dig up a Royal Navy wreck. But some average Chinese scrapper is not allowed to dig up any wreckage he finds. Not even in waters that were historically Chinese. Don't talk about who really owns the SCS. The Brits can dig up mummies in Egypt when it was conquered by the Empire. The Brits can loot Yuanmingyuan when it's troops reached Beijing. The rules based order can work both ways. Britain still wanna play Empire today. So Britain deserves to be f-ed over when the opportunity comes.It doesn't say anything about Paul Allen dredging up wrecks for scrap, he was just exploring them and bringing up the occasional relic as a memorial (eg HMS Hood's bell) with approval of the relevant navy.
