China unveils a powerful deep-sea cable cutter that could reset the world order

"I disagree"
I'mthen you're objectively wrong, as you are disagreeing with facts.
"China is a scary place"
like the US.
"with face recognition and all that shit."
like the US.
"I wouldn’t ever travel there."
good, they don't need your racism you would be an embarrassment.
"If my job sent me there, I would rather quit than travel to china. "
small favors.
". Also Chinese culture in general is pretty unappealing to me"
you obviously know nothing about Chinese culture, and are obviously very racist.
"who is used to a free life...."
houoooo
which "free" country are you from?
"I hate the whole thing, not just the government.
But please note that I do not blanket hate all Chinese people though. "
this is going to shock you, bigot, but all Chinese people are "the whole thing" that you are insulting, despite your racist tantrum being born out of obvious ignorance.

Piss off. It’s not racist to hate a country. It’s racist to hate their people. Not all cultures are worth being praised. Some deserve to be condemned. And I hate Chinese culture. And Japanese for that matter. They are dystopian if you take a closer look.
If a country keeps a horrible leader for that many years, it also tells a lot btw. Normally you would re to get rid of said leaders. But apparently it’s fine.
yes, it is racist to hate an entire country of people because of who they are.
that is racism. here look:
"Some deserve to be condemned. And I hate Chinese culture."
idiotic, ignorant and absurd racism.
"And Japanese for that matter."
racism.
"They are dystopian if you take a closer look."
you are obviously ignorant about either of those countries and especially anything about their culture.
which utopian country are you from?
"If a country keeps a horrible leader for that many years, it also tells a lot btw"
oh look, you're blinding ignorance.
xi abolished term limits years ago. he is not kept in power, he seized it; Trump said he would like to do the same thing.
"Normally you would re to get rid of said leaders."
wildly historically inaccurate and ignorant!
"But apparently it’s fine. "
nope, and embarrassingly ignorant.

Someone is very butthurt. Probably Chinese, by chance?
You keep saying „like the US“ as if that was an argument at all lol. Yes. Like the US. Both are authoritarian shitholes.
"Someone is very butthurt. Probably Chinese, by chance?"
nope, just smart,well-traveled and knowledgeable.
and.... not a racist like you!
-
It's give and take. China is smart enough to invest in its country and its people. They're making great scientific and technical advances that's on a course that will surpass the west in many areas. The individual rights and freedoms are terrible though to the point where unsanctioned creativity is punished.

I literally said that I don’t hate Chinese people, I hate the culture. That is not racist to hate „work to death“ and „be worthless unless you reach a certain social status“ etc.
I’m sure there a nice aspects. But most of the culture seems forced and cruel. It’s all dependent on social status and that’s kinda sad. I hate that. I would hate it anywhere, not just in china. I would hate it in my country too. So how is this possibly racist? Some cultures are just worse than others.

The whole country is dystopian. But agree there are smart people. They are just used for doing/inventing awful stuff.
They are playing the long game and are currently the only ones benefiting from all that happens. They sit by idly watching our idiot leaders antagonise each other.

hating a culture, especially when you don't know anything about except the race of the people who make that culture, is racist.

what you actually said is:
"That country fucking sucks ass."
these are your new arguments:
"That is not racist to hate „work to death“ and „be worthless unless you reach a certain social status“ etc. "
nobody said that was racist, because you haven't said those before.
what is racist is you not liking Chinese people and their culture for no reason other than their race.
I am glad you are changing your position.
"I’m sure there a nice aspects."
there are many.
"But most of the culture seems forced and cruel."
this is a statement born of ignorance, you can't draw this conclusion because you obviously don't know anything about the culture.
as seen here:
"It’s all dependent on social status and that’s kinda sad."
this is incorrect, stop drawing racist conclusions based on your assumptions and ignorance.
"how is this possibly racist?"
what is racist is you not liking Chinese people and their culture for no reason other than their race.
to the point that you will vehemently insult an entire country, including its people, despite not knowing what you're talking about.

Tbh I’m gonna ignore you now. Call me a pussy but I’m tired of having my words twisted. I can hate the country. It’s not racist. It would be racist if I hate the people. But I don’t. I hate the culture and you say I don’t know anything about it, even though I just stated things that I know about it. I never mentioned the race. I mentioned „work to death“ to the point where there are grids in front of windows so people can’t jump. And I mentioned social status. What worth does an unmarried 34 year old man have in china? Exactly. Close to none. I know these things. Stop denying the truth.
And lastly FUCK YOU for repeatedly calling me a racist. You’re a fucking idiot if you think that. I clearly and obviously stated that I hate the culture, not the people. And I will say it again. I don’t hate Chinese people. I hate their culture and their government.
Kill me for it. I’m done with this useless discussion.

I followed the thread just to see where it landed and I was not disappointed.
And for a well travelled and knowleadgeable person, you give off a very narrow view.
So, in one corner, we have an authoritarian regime, well established, known for violently suppressing minorities and heavilly surveill the citizens, take over territories, and constantly menace and threaten others, while thriving by manipulating money flow world wide and internally using slave work to run their industries.
On the other, we have the exact same thing, but flag and language changes. And classical political quadrant.
You can loathe a regime and have nothing against the people underneath it. Chinese were lead into an authoritarian regime through force, Americans were subtly led to the same through fear. The original premise: a land of freedom, for the people.
If we can not agree both countries are, essentially, the same, then one of us is refusing to aknowledge facts, willingly.

A compact, deep-sea, cable-cutting device, capable of severing the world’s most fortified underwater communication or power lines, has been unveiled by China – and it could shake up global maritime power dynamics.
The revelation marks the first time any country has officially disclosed that it has such an asset, capable of disrupting critical undersea networks.
This could have been a The Onion title

It's all good dude. The other people reading this realize you're not a racist, and that other guy you're arguing with is extremely narrow in his definition, to the point of being anal-retentive.

Weird way to pronounce starlink, since it seems that’s what they’re hoping for. Privatizing the government

Lmao people will say this same shit about the us in 8 years when all the rights have been stripped and it’s run by tech bros

You don’t have the mental capacity to learn mandarin? lol that’s pretty nicely worded. I simply don’t have the fucks and would rather die than learn that language. I had enough trouble with French. And they use „normal“ letters.
Nothing about france can be called normal even with quotation marks.

Yes. In many ways, China is exactly what Republicans wet dream about. A single party runs unopposed controlling all elements of government. Criticizing them is illegal. All businesses are protected by the government from uppity customers. Employees are expected to work 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. 6 days a week for few benefits with almost no workers rights..
It's the Republican dream.
