Haters gonna hate. Given the West's history with China, they're not in a position to preach about anything.

Haters gonna hate. Given the West's history with China, they're not in a position to preach about anything.
- tim333 11y agoNot sure it's hating or preaching. It just that a lot of businesses supplying China will make losses or go bust if they stop buying. More of an oh shit, what do we do now moment.
- seanmcdirmid 11y agoHaters gonna hate, wumaos gonna wumao. There is plenty of bias all around, but right now I want economic news on China that isn't propaganda, what other choices do we have?
- catnaroek 11y agoThat accusation is uncalled for. I'm not a Chinese person, I've never set foot on China, and the most contact I've ever had with Chinese people other than my grandparents was on IRC and other online avenues of discussion, but I happen to have, um, a little bit of historical awareness.
- seanmcdirmid 11y agoI didn't accuse you have being a wumao, I just said "haters gonna hate" like "wumaos gonna wumao". These are interesting times, we need the critical articles to get us through it, not the wumao or chinadaily "all is sunshine" variety.
- gbog 11y agoEconomic news is propaganda anyways, just don't trust that. Information is power, scepticism is the defense of the weaks (us) against this power.
