You contradict yourself. Praise Trump but then post how he walked back his earlier China criticism and went straight to China ass kisser mode . Do I trust Chinese numbers? No. Do I trust US numbers. Not at all either. Because a fraction of those who should be tested get tested. Now in the US hospitals fire nurses and doctors if they speak of the true work conditions. How is that any less despotic?
What contradiction? China kisser? Maybe you have a mental crisis you need fix first. Personally I'm a Democrat and I rarely ever approve what Trump does but when it comes to China, I think he is doing a great job. As for hypocrisy, that goes with the politics. If you didn't already know that, man, you're just a simpleton.
The following is what you said/quoted in your first post. You don't think that deserves the China ass kisser of the month award? And stop making everything personal. I merely pointed out that your admiration of Trump as strongman vs your citation is contradictory. President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the U.S. doesn’t know whether the Chinese government has underreported the number of coronavirus cases and deaths in the country. Still, Trump said that Beijing’s tally appeared “to be a little bit on the light side, and I’m being nice when I say that, relative to what we witnessed and what was reported.”
First, thanks for the clarification. On my part, let me explain that these are not my words but copy/paste from CNBC. I should have added the source, which I forgot. So I apologize for the confusion. Second, you were pretty aggressive in your accusation. Well, had you pointed out these "contradiction" from the beginning, maybe I would have behaved a little better (??) Anyway, here is the source link: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/04/01/cor...esnt-know-if-china-underreported-numbers.html
The Chineee don’t have to brag about anything. The WHO is doing it all for them. If you want to hear insanity listen to the WHO outright gush about the Chinese response to the problem the Chineee created. The lack of finger pointing towards the East by the Leftards is also no surprise - they want an authoritarian communist country here in ‘Merica...China is their new Venezuela...Libtard utopia.
In your utopian view only billionaire favoring free wheeling capitalism and Venezuela exists? Never heard of Japan, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Holland, Australia, New Zealand? Nothing that America can learn from those countries? That is perhaps why the average American only has less than 400 bucks to their bank account and can't afford a car repair bill and a medical emergency. Nothing wrong in your eyes with that sad state of affairs?
This is the problem with y'all. It always boils down to friggin' politics. You really need to politicize Corona, of all things? The reason for my beef with China isn't about their "Libtard" policies. I can care less about that. What I want is the truth, which Chinese government is always twisting to their opportunistic ends. That's what I'm bitching about. It's not about politics. PS. This thread has since been moved to "Politics" (ironically) from the "Wall Street News" section.
As a Chinese-Canadian who came to the country at age 10 (I am 30 now), I have seen the countries from both side, and to be honest I rather live/work in a big city in China than Toronto right now. I have seen tremendous changes in China, from the first KFC being opened in my home city Hefei in 1998 to big western style shopping malls in every section of a major city. China went from having only junky diesel buses in the 90s to elaborate reliable subway system with cell service and TV screens. Compare that to Toronto, the same worn out subway trains since 80s. Still no cell service in the subway, no TV screens, no modernization. Breaks down on a weekly basis during rush hours. No new highways, same old traffic jam problems, zero improvement. I am just not seeing the advantage of living the day to day life in a city like Toronto anymore. The quality of life here have remained stagnant or even regressed. The media is constantly bombing us with frightening news about China. Truthfully, they are mostly bunch of crap. If you live your life like an average citizen(not a criminal), none of these "restrictions" will affect you. Just get a VPN to access western websites. Anyways, I think the point is really we should focus on how to improve our countries(Canada and US) and solve the actual problems. Stop wasting time with politics. You might think China's government is lying because your media told you to be incredulous, even though there are no solid evidence. People in China don't waste time debating politics, they have a job to do and they break their back to get it done. The Chinese government runs their country like the US military commands its army, the people trust their government and are therefore obedient and highly efficient.
30 years old and with blinkers on. The CCP is corupt to the eyeballs, you obviously also didn't read the thread "Gutter oil" https://www.elitetrader.com/et/thre...ts-let-me-introduce-you-to-gutter-oil.342481/ Watch the video and pay special attention to the last sentence in the video. You are welcome to go back to China, you will be given a good credit score.
