Honduras is so serious about recognizing China over Taiwan, that they just gave the Taiwanese 30 days to get out of the embassy in their country to make way for the Chinese.

Since Tsai came to power in 2016, Taiwan has lost nine international "allies" who have chosen to establish official ties with Beijing!

Holy shit, china‘s really going after the heart of American exceptionalis. America likes to portray itself as the Pope of democracies, issuing excommunications and launching crusades at its enemies, and what’s the solution to a hostile papacy?
why, install your own anti-pope, as the french kings did in Avignon and the holy Roman emperors did.

In much the same way the anglos used East asian cultural and religious beliefs against its enemies in asia eg operation wandering soul, Falun gong, Dalai Lama reincarnation into an American citizen etc, so too can china use american mythology against the west, by subverting its propaganda on liberal democracies, and usurping americas role as leader of the free world.

I’m loving this new tack by Zhongnanhai, they’ve certainly been studying the Anglo American psyche.

. China will slowly start modifying the texts to show that the holy prophet Brigham Young was actually Brigham Yeung, a Chinese, and angels are, in fact, Chinese dragon spirits. The Mormons will then realize that they must obey Xi Jinping because it is the word of god and that they must overthrow the false prophets in the US government in order to attain salvation in the afterlife.

The People's Republic of Latter-day Saints will thus be born and the practice of polygamy there legalized. Hot drinks will also become outlawed.

I don't know if it's coincidence or this darn See See Pee Tiktok algorithm but I just literally finished watching that man's post on Tiktok talking about his experience in China along with that article I wasn't able to find. I found another article from another Black American experience that were more negative in terms of his overall experience in terms of experiencing overt discrimination (getting rejected from a rental place due to his skin color as he alleged to have been told by the landlady) and dating rejections as well on dating apps. Which is ironic since Asian men ranks the lowest preference on western/American dating apps so his complain is a toss up.


Anyway, here's the Tiktok video who wrote the article you posted.

More on the RESTRICT act. Look at how broad it is. "Any measure" Worse, the government can arbitrarily add countries to the adversary list without asking the congress. And they don't have to explain anything. I was naive about this act. It looks more about control of the internet than anything related to China. I'd even say China is just getting used as an excuse for the power fantasies of some people.

I think the National Security Complex and Military Industrial Complex are heading the United States into a full blown downward spiral towards basically full blown Fascism and to make things worse it would probably end hurting the United States way more than any of their perceived "adversaries".
U.S. allies need to be REALLY REALLY WORRY about this downward trend of irrationality and overreaction.

IMO the RESTRICT act is the most batshit crazy thing the US came up with in the last years. Everything about it is horrible. It is an act of extreme protectionism and censorship under the guise of national security. China doesn’t jail people who use VPNs. Everything about the act is intentionally very broad, and open-ended to enable arbitrary crackdowns by the government. They are literally opening the way to imprisoning of people for a multi-decade timeframe for things even countries they accuse of being totalitarian don’t care about.

"Under the terms of the bill, someone must be engaged in 'sabotage or subversion' of communications technology in the U.S., causing 'catastrophic effects' on U.S. critical infrastructure, or 'interfering in, or altering the result' of a federal election in order for criminal penalties to apply," Warner's communications director, Rachel Cohen, said.

How very reassuring. Who determines what "interfering in, or altering the result" of a federal election details? Do you trust the same people who banned Tiktok to make this decision?

Let’s take it a bit further. If I used VPN to access Tiktok and post a video telling people not to vote for the morons who banned it, would it be considered election interference?

150 million Americans have given TikTok near-monopolistic powers over US's entire web based industry. Just like how Google used their search engine to promote their own services and branch out into many different products, now Bytedance holds equivalent if even greater power:

Instagram rival Lemon8 hits the US App Store’s Top 10​

Prior to yesterday, the Lemon8 app had never before ranked in the Top 200 Overall Charts in the U.S.- ahead of YouTube, WhatsApp, Gmail and Facebook.

A single day of ads, promoted to all 150 million US users- that's all it takes ByteDance to place yet another record breaking app in the Top 10. TikTok isn't just an entertainment app, it is a beachhead for all Chinese and international apps into the US ecosystem. And US tech can't seal the crack or stop the flooding. Eight more days and all the Top 10 apps will be ByteDance owned.

I have about as much sympathy for these individuals as I do a demographic that benefits from lower MCAT and SAT scores for uni, who benefit from the racism against Asians in America by acting as literal street thugs for white supremacy, who rob asian elderly and who bitch and moan when they break a shoelace, who enjoy Blacked porn alongside insecure beta caucasoids, and who pathetically try to outcompete the Koreans in claiming to be Kangz of Chinese history (Twitter) and who bitch about lack of sexual access from European women.

As far as I’m concerned, African American utility is only to act as a Black Panther militia group to aid PLA and African allied expeditionary forces in some far off future conflict against the Anglo Americans. Failing that, they are as the tiktokers say, a la poubelle.

this is an ingenious and wickedly ironic plan considering Mormonism is basically American exceptionalism in religious format and that the cia is overwhelmingly staffed by Mormons the same way the fbi is populated by Catholics.
Mormonism effectively trains its people from birth to become cia agents from the language and mission trips and indoctrination of Protestant evangelical American Mormonism.

Platform control is incredibly powerful in the contest for soft power, which is why it's become a major battle ground between the US and China. There is a mountain of salt from the Americans that China essentially banned their main influence platforms ie Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.; so the retaliation here is actually obvious. The US will do whatever it takes to ensure that China suffers the same in the US, regardless of how hypocritical it looks or how illegal it is under current US law. This has all been obvious to me from the beginning.

The question is actually what happens in the rest of the world. The US wields a lot of political power over the EU, the Five Eyes, Japan, and South Korea. So it's likely that it'll attempt to get them to also ban Chinese internet platforms. Whether it will be successful depends on what China threatens in response. After all, in theory those countries aren't directly involved in the fight - it's not their internet companies that have been banned in China - so China holds more leverage if it tries to tie this issue to that of over all trade. This will be interesting to watch.

The country, though, that's lost all of its leverage already is India, because for whatever reason the Indians decided to ban Chinese internet platforms even before the US, ensuring they have no leverage at the bargaining table because there is nothing to bargain for. Such is the way of Indians.
