China’s National Defense Minister Li Shangfu has been missing for weeks. Now, he’s under investigation for corruption and out of a job
Probably getting fired and/or arrested for corruption if I had to guess. Just a thought though.
I’m a communist 😈

China isn’t exactly happy with the US government right now due to the sanctions imposed over advanced chip technology, and this move could be viewed as part of a an ongoing reaction to that. So far, Micron has been the main target for retaliation. The US government already imposes its own restrictions on Chinese hardware and services. Notable, Huawei equipment is banned and TikTok can’t be installed on government devices.
Already did. This is the tit-for-tat regulation. America did cause, and China did effect.
Incorrect, they’ve never been about that.
Free Ryukyu! Revolution of our time!
They’re not about that anymore.
It’s right in the article. They’re either taking pictures from outside, or going in and saying they got lost.
First you treat all foreigners of a specific nationality as a spy, then you treat everyone of a specific nationality as a spy, and then you round them up. The progression is quite simple, so let’s not start with step one. Military bases should just fix their security and end it at that.
In other words, every Chinese tourist is expected to act as a spy.
Mask off with the fifth column accusations.
Yes but these countries also have extremely low birth rates - 1.3, 0.8, and 1.2, respectively in 2021. Japan is finally feeling the effects and has an actively shrinking population. In 2022 it lost 556,000 people. To remedy this with immigration, they’d have to do quite the about face. There also isn’t an endless source of immigrants - eventually the countries that people are emigrating from will economically develop and have lower population growth. Sub-replacement fertility rates is an issue in any somewhat developed economy nowadays. It’s just the worst in East Asia. Countries need to figure out how to create a quality of life that will encourage stable population.
Cause it’s pretty safe as long as you don’t make a huge scene.
I have a hunch this language suppression meme is fake news. I’ll get back to you guys in a decade or two to see if I was right.
You’re stretching the definition of democratic especially if you’re extending that to all of these countries that have recently experienced coups.
Language is a social phenomenon, yes.
Okay, sure! Hate speech isn’t free speech!

The nuclear bomb testing in the Pacific absolutely fucked over the people living there. But not all radiation is the same. There’s no way this wastewater affects them whatsoever unless they do a pilgrimage to Fukushima Daiichi and start drinking the pre-diluted water.

If Xi piloted a flying saucer to kidnap military officers, I’d have no choice but to support him.
