- mdorazio 7y agoOf course they could do something about it, they just don't want to because it would be economically painful. Unified trade sanctions against China would likely have effects pretty quickly, but would impact economies significantly more than the Trump-imposed tariffs that everyone is already freaking out over.
- indemnity 7y agoWell, with the rise of anti DDoS services meaning the targeted websites are staying online, rendering the “Great Cannon” more like a pathetic peashooter, that’s doing one thing. Calling China out whenever they do this is another. Unmask the Chinazis for what they are.
- tempestn 7y agoI don't think that last line is helpful. If you believe that the Chinese government is akin to the Nazi party, better to make the argument explicitly than to use a term like "Chinazis", which could be interpreted as overly broad and highly insulting in the best case.
- PavlovsCat 7y agoOh, and saying "nobody can do anything" is helpful? Fuck what "could be interpreted" in a way or another: if you interpret it that way, if you consider it "overly broad and highly insulting in the best case", better to make the argument explicitly. Good luck.
