You know, the people we should really be praising here is Eileen Gu's mom and grandmom. Eileen Gu could easily have passed for a white American girl, but her mom chose to instill in her daughter a sense of pride for her heritage and culture. They are the real heros here.
@solarz Correct Sir being Chinese is not about skin color, it's about internalizing and practicing what it is to be a Chinese. Sir in this forum we have members like @Sardaukar20 and @Kaeshmiri whose thinking and attitude are more Chinese than me....lol. And it's a great honor to know and accept them as one of us. I've seen and experience in my lifetime Hua Qiao that is ashamed of their heritage and culture, they find a easy way out to escape discrimination. Speaking pretty English trying to look good and be accepted, I pity them cause its unnatural, instead of respect they were viewed as arrogant, they have no identity to be proud of and they were lost and confused. The same can be said of HK and Taiwan, until they accept what they are, they can't find true happiness and inner peace.

I think @Gatekeeper is the most Chinese. He died and sacrificed for us to atone for our sins.

Summary (quote from Twitter):
Basically 5 minutes of "Russia is plotting a false flag attack" "do you have any evidence of this?" "I just told you, that's all the evidence you need" "but what evidence supports this?" "my statement is the evidence" "that's not evidence" "guess you're with the Russians then"
This is the US government in a nutshell.

How come they are not paying in rmb?
I've thought about this and I think it's like this: the idea is to throw the EU a bone. This doesn't mount to much but it's a subtle nudge that "if you guys stop being US lapdog there's still a seat for you at the new world we're creating".

Russia still wants to sell gas to Germany plus do business with EU, it's really just NATO and US lackeys in Eastern Europe that's a problem. Likewise China is fine with doing business with Germany and France, as long as they can keep countries like Lithuania in line in the EU.

This talk today and all that transpired would no doubt rattle Washington and EU, by including EU in this in a round about way you actually further isolate the US. Even if EU doesn't take up the bait, it will drive those paranoid people in Washington into thinking "wait, are the cheese eating surrender monkeys and ze nazi wheeling and dealing behind our back?"

As Chairman Mao said, diplomacy is about having as many friends as possible and as few enemies as possible.
