I have no idea if you're a actual China hater. You've certainly caught my attention of late. You're mistaken if you think I just want to hear one side. I like getting into the game. I don't use ignoring features. I don't request members to be banned. I just ask do I get to do it too?
AM-
Joke about America all you want, we have wide shoulders and we could take it. I suggest Obamacare and NSA/Snowden jokes are low hanging fruit to target. Dysfunctional government, fiscal insanity, slavery, racism, genocide of American Indians, and incarceration of Japanese-Americans are also easy targets. Let's agree to calling things as we see them, good or bad.
Everything I said in my thread on Philippines typhoon was true:
1) Initial pledge of $100k was exceedingly cheap and not worthy of a great power. Full stop.
2) CCP official corruption is completely out of hand. It doesn't mean other countries don't have corruption, only that it's so bad in China, it's threatening the legitimacy of the Communist Party.
3) High level CCP officials and/or their families are rich beyond the dreams of avarice, and it pisses off Chinese citizens to no end.
