        Yes but CCP controls all trade while it’s much harder in free democracies. If CCP actually cares about something it is done immediately. Just take a look at trade war with the US, CCP is always 10 steps ahead because they can move so fast as they can’t be held accountable. That’s actually why there are so many autocracy proponents in the west now - “democracy is too slow, we’re losing”.

            They have high approval within the Chinese populace.

            Just like Trump has high approval among Fox viewers. Propaganda works.

            You and so many are so deluded by propaganda about China.

            And you’re not? Or do you just like the taste of jackboot?

            I’ve been to China many times too and it does not rock lmao. You’ve been eating propaganda and it shows. China is extremely oppressive and it’s still incredibly underdeveloped despite LED covered cities you see on tiktok. It’s still a matchmaker and status driven society from 20th century despite EV tech.

            Also freedom is not binary, the west is more free than China ever was. At least I can type “LGBT” to my chat app which you cannot do in China because CCP autocrats deem it “western propaganda”. None of this is a worthy sacrifice for faster decision making, I’d rather be slightly poorer but live in a healthier more free society.

            You’re a fool.

        people say its money that makes the world go round, but I think its more accurate to say trade makes the world go round.

      Lmao another american demanding china enforce unilateral sanctions on every country that trades with israel in order to cut them off. What do you think would happen? Europeans or americans would just sell them chinese shit. You haven’t thought about this for five seconds. They would need to cut themselves off from every single nation in the US bloc, defeating the entire purpose of their economic strategy

      What happened to the palestinian reporters al jazeera hired, by the way? Does your smushed walnut brain even have room for WHO RUNS AL JAZEERA 🤣 ?

          Do you really think you can talk down to me when you didn’t even bother to research Hamas’ stance on China? Are you a total fruit loop up there?

            Yes, if you think Hamas is interchangeable with the will of the Palestinian people, I think everyone should talk down to you.

              @the_fuckler@nord.pub yeah seconding that, it’s like there’s not even a real person on the other end. something darker, an entity that feeds only on pain and carnage and missile strikes. it’s like… it doesn’t even want another little treaty treat. it doesn’t even want to have the keys jangled in front of it. all it cares about is something called “the ongoing genocide” which it claims is related to generations of dead weighing like a nightmare on the brains of the living, which is like really creepy my dude. i’ve never heard it clamor for more superprofits once! but that would mean it can’t feel pain or remorse and it can’t be stopped unless it’s killed. can it be killed?

              it just doesn’t make sense. the only genocide in history occurred during world war ii. criminal insanity, I presume

                Ohhh so this schizoid is one of your blorbos or something. Alright have fun inventing arguments to obliterate with facts and logic on the internet. I know this is going to somehow end a genocide somewhere if you deliver enough sick owns with Lennie SmallGPT here in a comment section

                  Yes, and this is your only chungus personality, which you seem unaware glows in the dark. I hope figuring out the second guy talking about blood constantly with the Bloodborne profile picture is part of the Big Chungus wasn’t too mentally taxing.

                  Be sure to conserve your energy for the next time, you might be able to actually voice your condemnation for the material support base for the Palestinian resistance. China and Iran. They can’t shoot settlers with your heckin updoots, my good sir.

                    Wait no, this was on me. I was the one who engaged with a fucking robot. I should just stick to shady alleyways at night in towns with meth epidemics

              Oh, I had no idea your ignorant ass spoke for The Will of the Palestinian People. Are you sure you didn’t mix that up with Triumph of the Will? That’s interesting that you exclude the Palestinian armed resistance from the equation. Could this be informed by your liberal ideology’s history of supporting slavery and colonialism, chastizing the rebellious? Or do you think you came up with all this on your own, out of sheer moral superiority? Elaborate on Hamas’ position on China. Then contrast it with a few examples of The Will of the Palestinian People. I’m super curious about which ones you will pick! Thanks for participating in a good faith discussion with me.
