vietnam needs to be democratized but I think China would interfer with it like russia does in elections. Egypt kicked out the Muslim brotherhood which is a good thing just like china puts uighers in concentration camps to make hauwei smarthphones.


Azerbaijan needs to return to paganism. Guinea I have no comment about. UAE I'm on the fence about. You can still kind of party there. Saudi arabia should be turned to glass though. Its the origin of jihad. The bedoiun ideology messed up asia and north africa. They don't assimilate and blow everything up. This is why we can't have nice things

Them' bitcoinz rising will benefit China? Well maybe not since they aren't bitcoin friendly but are VERY other-crypto friendly. Their favorite EOS/Tron hit extreme highs these months, EOS surpassed Bitcoin significantly...it's interesting to see the near future of altcoins used in China.

You can say someone "speaks" Mandarin but it is usually odd to say "write" in Mandarin, because all Chinese communities share the same written language. Unless you want to emphasize the fact that something is truly written in a informal, dialectical format, the correct way is to say "write Chinese".

It is like saying someone writes Australian English instead of British English. In some special context it is valid, but usually not.

well for one I at least can tell apart when it's any form of Chinese vs any form of Korean or Japanese. My way of telling:


1. if it looks too complex: it's chinese!
2. if it looks simpler: it's japanese
3. if it has lots of "o"-like characters it's Hangul


And yes I know Japan uses Chinese letters too.

the hell is this lol? literally 3 people on the netz (reddit...) mentioned 'The Great Battle' on netflix whenever i say something about china. I wouldn't even care about CHinese cinema if it's asian but i'd be 100 times less interested if it's non-chinese but just some biased movie with hidden propaganda message.


Oh it's Korean, who would've thought:
