An "expert", who "lived in China for years", said: (Start from 7:29)

In NPC, you can see a weird scenario, where people are trying to marry Communist Ideology with incredible advances in high-tech. The Deepseek story tells us China indeed can innovate. There're lots of innovation going on, but they're hitting a bottleneck. Communism has no freedom. Communism is the enemy of tech innovation. China's top leaders want to totally control its tech firms, you can see that from NPC. With tech development, China need to change its political system sometime in the future. There has to be more transparency and less regulations, otherwise China's economy will always in trouble. However, CCP is unlikely to give up its power. So that's China's biggest problem.

These people need to just give it a rest, it's becoming embarrassing. Stop telling people what system they need to adopt, drop your colonial attitude towards others, live and let live. They are unbearable.

China has done well for itself, it had grown to be the number 2 economy (number one if you go by some measures), and the most traded nation in the world leading in many fields and yet these people keep talking about political systems. Ask them how democracy worked for Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya.

Can you imagine how evil that smell was to make Indians object, let alone forcing the plane to turn around?

white Europeans have always been this arrogant, even before colonialism, you can read historic attitudes of 16th century Europeans who bear strikingly similarities to attitudes of say some Muslim Islamic state wahhabist types who opine about how superior they are as muslims despite living in squalor.

There is a real good reason for that.

It is an emotional attachment, that is being broken, and people do not handle rejection well.

Whatever bonds that the junior partner had with the Americans, that is in serious doubt now.

When the towers went down on 9/11, the overwhelming reactions among Canadians was we were with the Americans on this.

Canada was a part of this coming war on terror. Because Canadians identify with the Americans, and felt the same way.

Prime Minister Harper set up a base in Kandahar Afghanistan where over 100 Canadians were sent to their deaths.

They died because that bond between Canada and America was worth it.

Now Uncle Trump sings a different tune.

Suckas!

You know, I am not white, so I cannot really judge how things are in the minds of the majority of Canadians.

Just reading the papers, seems like this bond is no longer there, just my impression.

The province of Ontario has over 100,000 jobs related to the auto industry, the same industry that the Americans want back inside their country and the hell with everyone else.

There is a real chasm there.

Not sure if time can heal that.

:cool:

So the Canucks treat America as a pacifier? Screw them. Trump is right after all.
