Who exactly is buying meat from China also? From my time in Vietnam the locals I knew shunned Chinese meat imports and recommended not buying it even though it was slightly cheaper, many simply don't trust it and there was a few scanda

Is funny to see this because I've developed sentiment systems that would parse in (somewhat) real-time and get handed over to govt and big business paying for lucrative contracts. You'd be surprised how obscure a forum we'd b

As an Australian can I share the opinion that our leadership would literally jump off a bridge if the US government said it was a good idea. We have a long and storied history of making bad decisions to appease greater powers.

Works ok with some countries certainly. But others live in their own little world, Iran has faced long running sanctions and still has survived quite well due to their resources. I truly wish the world would do something but the realist in

Sugar prices in the states are double what everyone else on Earth pays due to perverse protectionism funded by the taxpayer. So many of my American friends never believe this either but it's true. Same with corn which is very much rela

May I challenge your worldview with the reality that the majority of Chinese mainlanders and Westerners are aware of this occurring and don't really care that much to do anything? To add to the cognitive dissonance: Which country on Ea

Were this to occur in an authoritarian state people would harp on about a brainwashed population. Get the suspicion no one feels as strongly when it happens in the UK despite being the exact same ballgame.

All the rich countries consume a few Earth's worth of resources per person though, while visible things like plastic pollution and environmental regulations are generally solved, other issues like emissions are at unsustainable levels

And yet Australian dairy farmers constantly complain about low prices and going bankrupt. This has been going on for years. The complaint doesn't add up. There's more than enough milk powder to go around, people are fighting over

And this gets far more messy the moment they come to the clients country and start working on a tourist visa.

An ablative covering negates this. Hope they have enough time to aim in the same spot.

I mean it in the sense that you have the conglomerate at the centre of this storm who is forced into following government orders doing the translation. Whose to say they couldn't give two different people varying translations into Engl

But you can't do business in China without handing over your tech and partnering with locals. Needing that translated, stamped and signed on fancy paper is irrelevant. The message is loud and clear to anyone wanting to do business. So

I'm far more likely to be a 5eyes whistleblower or activist than Chinese whistleblower. Assume most people commenting here are in the same boat. Pretty clear cut.
