WTF. This crisis has been openly discussed in China from the very beginning.
And yes pork price has been going up steadily , but there was no such thing as political crisis.
I mean China is not angel but it is absurd to smear China with nonsenses like this.
- woodandsteel 7y agoSo is it your view that the Chinese government has done a good job of handling the crisis?
- fqye 7y agoCan you read? In what way did I hint that?
- parrellel 7y ago"This crisis has been openly discussed in China from the very beginning." and "but there was no such thing as political crisis." implying the usual Chinese Government stupidity isn't happening.
- woodandsteel 7y agoIt's a perfectly legitimate question. You present yourself as someone who knows what is going on in the country, so what do you think? My guess is you avoided answering the question because you know it has screwed up badly, and don't want to admit it.
- ospider 7y agoIf you were not implying that the Chinese government has handled the ASF badly, your question should be: "How do you feel about the action the government takes?", instead of asking if the OP supports the government. The Chinese government maybe evil, but it's NOT stupid and they do not hate piggies. Besides, you can say that pork is the most popular meat supply in China, but it's not like that the Chinese would die without pork, chickens and beef are both fine protein supplies. Please don't attach everything that happened in China to politics.
- woodandsteel 7y agoYou're right, I should have made that my question. The article explained why the crisis is much worse than it would have been if the government had acted wisely. If you disagree, then present some specific arguments, not just the vague, general one that the Chinese government is not stupid and so therefore it must have acted wisely. "Please don't attach everything that happened in China to politics" But the article was about governmental action. But I am going to assume you know all that and you have avoided a discussion of specifics because you know that it indeed did screw up. "Please don't attach everything that happened in China to politics" But the article was about governmental action. So what you are trying to do is divert attention away from the government's action. My observation is in the last year or so at HN, that has become the standard tactic for China government defenders.
- jxramos 7y agocan you lend any references to that open discussion? That's definitely worth checking out to stack up against the other claim.
