What do these two stories have in common? Unless they're trying to accuse China of engineering the Russian/Ukraine war with these goals in mind... sh*t happens. Is the cosmos suppose to be only in the West's favor because they think they're the good guys? Taiwan has the highest per capita number of cults in the world. No wonder they think unscientific imaginative forces are suppose to be in their favor. China was going along with Western tech standards until they wanted to weaponized it for their own selfish gain. That's a Pandora's box that cannot close especially since the West thinks whining about it will make China somehow continue using their standards so they can use this weapon. They brag about their power to do this and then cry like a baby because of the consequences. Responsible powers examine possible consequences. Abusive powers don't even think of it. What are they going to do to stop it? Threaten sanctions? Raise tariffs? Threaten to cancel China when they're already trying to do that with decoupling? Yes they threaten to do things that they're whining about happening now. All this means is the West is losing what power they had not gaining and it's all their own fault.
Most internet or phone fraud in mainland China came from Taiwanese. Enough said.
Thomas L. Friedman, of NYT fame that I am still paying for, wrote recently that US/West can actually cancel China the way they are doing to Russia, if China does not comply.
BTW, FYI, "台巴子" was invented by Shanghainese.
Lavrov-Rau Pact?

What respect do white supremacists think they deserve for doing what? White supremacists think non-whites are disloyal to white people. Disloyal? What makes them think non-whites are suppose to be loyal to people who hate them for their race? It's because white supremacists are taking credit for inventions of other individuals that happen to be white. They didn't invent these things themselves but think they deserve the same respect for it because they both happen to be white. The irony is white supremacists are whining about a disrespect given to them that they gladly give to anyone not white. That's white privilege they say doesn't exist when they expect society to give them sympathy when they actively seek to deny it from everyone else. Any other country or race that did what they do would be labeled evil. Does evil deserve sympathy where someone bothers to write articles to understand the problem in order to solve it? If it were anyone else they would seek to destroy them no questions asked. To work to understand the problem suggests more importance when anyone else they wouldn't bother and just eliminate them. It's just like Thomas Friedman throwing out cancelling China for not going along with the West's position on Ukraine. Eliminate the Chinese just for that? And Thomas Friedman ain't no right-winger. That's a statement of how not important the Chinese are to them. The West doesn't commit human rights violations. That's something non-Western countries do. The West only commits civil rights violations at most when it's the same exact thing. Cancelling another country is what Westerners do when they call it genocide if a non-Western country does it.
This is the same Kid Rock that said the US should send his alt-right Michigan militia to Vietnam and they alone will win the Vietnam War for the US because you know how the Democrats prevented the US from winning there. What does that mean? No restrictions on abuse of human rights which is okay when the US does it.
China's manufacturing power to the west is like Russia's natural gas to Europe. Cancelling China is a double edge sword to the west. China will then have to stop making goods for the west. It will take the west decades to rebuild the supply chain somewhere else. And such new supply chain will be much less efficient.
Losing the Russian energy supply will also make the West way more vulnerable to conflicts in the Middle East.
