The context of China destroying Tibet should not be overlooked here. Nepal shares much with Tibet culturally. Perhaps China isn't an immediate threat to their sovereignty, but it's certainly an existential threat.
- curiousgal 3y agoI genuinely don't understand the obsession with China.
- huytersd 3y agoYou should, it’s a country trying to normalize authoritarian governments.
- curiousgal 3y agoAs opposed to the countries spreading democracy? How's that worked out so far? Better yet, who's got more blood on their hands?
- huytersd 3y agoPretty well? The world has statistically never been safer, more educated, richer and more connected.
- curiousgal 3y agoTell that the kids who lost their parents because democracy was delivered to their neighbour's wedding.
- hackerlight 3y agoNepal is a small country bordering on a behemoth (China) that has a fairly authoritarian autocratic government that is asserting itself in multiple territorial disputes with other neighbors. It's wedged between India and China. It is correct for Nepal to have geopolitical concerns about the future. Nepal is the kind of landlocked country (e.g. Poland or Ukraine in Europe) that tends to become the unwitting victims.
- karaterobot 3y agoThat'd be a great subject to study then. You've got the whole, open internet as a resource to learn (the irony of that statement will make sense to you later; something to look forward to)
- curiousgal 3y agoThat's the crux of the issue, I'd rather actually talk to the people affected instead of reading biased online information. No one, outside of the U.S. thinks China is the scary boogeyman you guys make it out to be.
