I wonder what is "embracing supervision"? Looks like he is in jail. https://www.businesstoday.in/current/world/jack-ma-arrested-chinese-media-says-alibaba-founder-embracing-supervision/story/426979.html

I doubt the news. 1. Ever since the AQ Khan fiasco Pakistan would be too scared to do so. IAEA chief Mohammad El Baradei referred to Khan's activities after the scandal surfaced as Pakistan running a "nuclear Wal-Mart". They proliferated nuke technology to Libya and North Korea. 2. They are...

That's good. They are our allies. Sends a strong message to China too.

Man, that's just hard to believe.

You are getting confused between the nation-state of India and the civilization of India.

Also, one needs to look at all British colonial possessions which became independent after WW2. India is an exception. All the the other colonial possessions in Asia and Africa which became independent had at least 1 of the following - 1. Civil War 2. Military coups / rule 3. Splitting of...

If you read Mein Kampf, Hitler professed great admiration for the British rule and wanted to use it as a blueprint for the Reich. Also, you need to distinguish between Company Raj (1757-1857) and British Raj (1857-1947). Most of conquest was done by the Company, not the Crown.

L&T is probably the best engineering firm in India.

Meanwhile bhakts be like - "These are our golden days" -

As are the Chinese. Incidentally, facts are available to the democratic world if they look. This isn't the case in Communist China. But thankfully in Republic of China that's not the case.

Western media also reported on the Tiananmen Square massacre and the current persecution of the Uighurs. CCP controlled Chinese media tends to downplay or not report these.

That doesn't answer my question. If the Chinese are so effective at being able to spot fake news / propaganda - why do you think the CCP doesn't trust its people and remove censorship?

If true, why don't they just remove all censorship? No need for VPN. Are you saying that the Chinese people are just not trusted by the CCP?

This refers to students. Not general population.

Yes - but they are also insulated and have all kinds of censors blocking information to them as well as brainwashing them with propaganda. Given how Trumpanzees and Modi bhakts are also brainwashed, imagine how easy it is to brainwash people where information revealing facts is blocked.

Of course, as mentioned - British India is something that deserves its own thread. From the Battle of Plassey to Independent India - from the building of robust institutions and railways to exploitation of rural India to basically feed the industrial revolution. It would be a heck of a thread.

Yes. That has been a hilarious endeavor. The CCP think the rest of the world would lap up their lies like their own gullible masses.

That's a blanket generalization and downright racist. The blame must lie with the CCP, not the Chinese people.

In my opinion, ostracization and economic sanctions should suffice. Ok, so they have weird eating habits - but that's not the problem. The problem is that they could have contained it and deliberately lied. And then acted like saviors
