Thankfully many in the world has woken up to the truth of the Chinese way of doing things with lies, theft, obfuscation, bullying and the like. Not before time !

It’s interesting to see a title referring to HK’s “lockdown prison” when so many protestors and dissidents are now in very real prison. But it’s still good to see abuses and failures by the HK government getting some much needed publicity.

As Henry Plantagenet might have said “who will rid me of these turbulent Chinese?”
Hardly, Henry had the means to squash Becket any time he wished, it was endless restraint which was wearing him down. More like Xi saying ‘who will rid me of this turbulent Trump, and Xi’s servants, the Dems and Biden, set out and stabbed him in the voter count.
Glad to see those measures taking hold and keeping the Chinese safe.

Fascinating and terrifying. I imagine telling people about the dangers of China 10 years ago when no one was listening was an extremely frustrating business.
By October 1950 MacArthur wanted to nuke China’s military and industrial base after the invasion by China across the Yalu river into N Korea. Truman fired him instead of allowing him to prosecute the war. People knew of China as soon as Mao drove Chang Ki (or ‘peanut’ as Vinegar Joe called him) out of the Mainland. Then the great leaps forward, and the Cultural Revolution made every person on the planet who had one brain cell realize how China was. The problem was the Liberal/Lefty MSM, Hollywood, and academia intellectuals, were almost entirely in the commies pocket even then.
But you have seen nothing yet, the benignly named ‘Social Credit Scores’ are likely to become ‘the boot stamping on a human face for ever’ as Wilson had it described to him.

I rather thought you might reply the ‘USN’ to my rhetorical question about Henry II, but no matter we seem to be agreed on the menace that is China.
