This is so very simple; I cannot believe I need to tell you. Principles matter at the surface; you must keep up appearances. When I wrote that to you, I wrote it in candor; you cannot speak to the masses like that. You cannot say, "There is no right or wrong. The same thing is right when we do it, wrong when they do it." You cannot appear a hippocrit in public. China cannot openly support what Russia is doing because it looks like China supports one country invading another. But at the highest level, morals don't matter, only results and benefits, and it benefits China for Russia to depress NATO, so Chinese actions must support it. China can and should give Russia support whereever it needs in action; to defeat sanctions, to get critical materials. Russia needs no lip service at UNSC, and to remain neutral when seeing one side attack another is pretty much being on the side of the attacker because objectively, one would condemn such an action. This is the same as the Anglo game of saying one thing, doing another. Saying they don't support Tibetan or Taiwanese independence, but in action, they do, saying they support China's peaceful rise while trying to stop China from making so much as a computer chip. Please don't take things at face value and think with the depth of a child; this is international politics. Everyone is fork-tongued.

So what exactly do you disagree about? Why did you reply to my post originally?

I support China's geostrategy of covertly economically supporting one weaker imperialist (Russia) against a stronger imperialist (USA), but we still must acknowledge that Russian actions are imperialistic, therefore maintain political neutrality at UNSC and other international forums. Some Russophiles are angry that I criticize Russian actions as 'imperialism' and call me a "pro-US shill" to attempt to shut me up because I'm feeding a "Western narrative" to split Russia-China. These Russophiles don't want any legitimate criticism of Russian actions or propaganda and say "international laws and principles don't matter." But my point is, they matter enough for China to be neutral at UNSC, so you can't say it doesn't matter at all. Also, acknowledging reality is important to make informed decisions, and acknowledging reality does not make me "anti-Russia and pro-US".

According to reports a few minutes ago, low frequency waves were detected coming from an aircraft or aircraft by ground controllers. This happened yesterday minutes before the start of the bombings in Ukraine.

The report notes that it appears to be Russian bombers that are active in the skies over Ukraine.

China is designated the number one enemy of the West and the US. But somehow they want to convince China that the West will view China more negatively if China continued to be friendly with Russia. Mental gymnastic at its best.

A US reporter was asking Biden today at his speech if he had talked to China able putting pressure on Russia... these reporters are either geopoliticial dimwits or have immense galls or both to be asking a question like that.... of course Biden said he wasnt going to talk about that lol....

America has declared China as its #1 enemy but wants China to help the US attack China's #1 ally?
