Like holy shit, where's all the chink fear mongering on the media 24/7?
Oh so peaceful China that literally outspends Russia in defense. 28 year old. Good to know! I remember quite a few fags here in /sg/ badmouthing muh Borsalino, muh forest fire.

>vietsparky shitting on china all day If I wanted to read shit about China I would just read western MSM.
>he instantly starts posting about china He truly is mentally ill, this is a case of delusion almost as powerful as countrycuck.
Thomas Sanders
I don't think it's commonly known enough.
There's a quite surprise when the world finds out Russia spends less money on military than China does.
Dominic Scott
>You have no point. There are no politicians who will improve the situation in any meaningful capacity. We can’t just outsource positive change to bureaucrats. That’s not how real life works. Of course we're all responsible to lowering our carbon footprint, but only government can rein in the corporations that are destroying the environment. There are plenty of very responsible politicians that are willing to do that.
Samuel Howard
>Why is there not so much a peep that China is literally the country with the 2nd most spending on the military, only losing to the US? China has the biggest population in the world, almost 4 TIMES bigger than the US.
Does the western MSM cover HK protests 24/7? Does western MSM shout all days about how chinks literally is the 2nd of the world in military spending?
Or is it all about that climate change and Drrummppft?
David Miller
>thinking politicians fix anything You know Americans used to want change in their own communities so much that they became politicians to make those changes. Damn, what the fuck happened to America?
India has about the same amount of people, yet the military spending is way lesser?
Does China want to do something with its military?
Blake Smith
Well, politicians lie, that's what happens.
Comrade Mao is right, politics come from the barrel of the gun.
Dominic Kelly
China is way more advanced than India is. In less than 10 years India will be in the top 5 military expenditure.
Camden Long
>Well, politicians lie, that's what happens. Or, greed became more of an option than betterment of their society. Can only do so much before foreign lobbyists take over your country for their own gain.
Kayden Brown
Chinese silk butthurt belt.
True, HOWEVER, those politicians just meet the sustainability criteria while doing little in regards to keeping life worth living. Let’s not beat around the bush, most of the candidates who give a shit about climate change are Democrats. Fine. I appreciate their concern, even if I do think the alarmism is uncalled for and dishonest. The thing is that their other policies suck really incredibly hard. On an individual level, one of the most simple ways to undermine the system is to just want less. Buy less shit. Spend less money. Make less money so that you pay in less in taxes.
Owen Nguyen
So it's not about the population then, but the ambition.
I'm quite surprised western MSM just let this shit fly, I guess it is true they are pro-china.
Muh climate change and Drrummpft are what matter.
Based on the spending alone, the Cold War is already in place.
Austin Cook
>2nd of the world in military spending And Saudi Arabia is the third, unironically.
Nolan Smith
Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build bridges even when there is no river. - Nikita Kruschev
Austin Robinson
As said, if americans step up and remove politicans, there wouldn't be problem.
In fact, that's true worldwide.
Lincoln Robinson
>muh democrats they don't suck anywhere near as bad as fox news tells you they do, id much rather have bernie sanders or elizabeth warren as my president because climate change is far too big of a problem to ignore for more petty shit like tax cuts and border fences that dont actually work
Tyler Lewis
But we all know Saudi is a joke.
China is a risk vietnamese cannot take.
Jacob Thompson
Genuinely why does this general attract such cretinous, mentally ill or geopolitically illiterate posters, like faghrebi, countrycuck, sparky, vietsperg. etc?
Charles Walker
i dont know, maybe you should do an introspection
David Flores
>far too big a problem We’re not gonna die in 12 years. I don’t give a shit what some four eyed lab coat wearing asshole says. This is a problem we need to solve because for our great or great great grandkids it may actually be 12 years. I don’t give a damn about le border wall. My main voting issues are lower taxes (which Democrats are kinda shit for) and protecting my 2A rights (which, again, Democrats are kinda shit for).
Adam Hall
Cause people want (You)s.
Christopher Foster
Because this general is a leddit gateway to invite leftist and communists here, which is why it must be watched 24/7.
And no, I'm not cretinous, mentally ill or geopolitically illiterate.
Justin Cruz
>So it's not about the population then, but the ambition. No, I would say it's a bit of both. Bigger population means more spending on everything, including military. Advancing your society means more spending specifically on military, because you should understand the military is the #1 standard of professionalism in the country. If the standard of your military is shit, chances are you country is really shitty.
Again, wait 10 years for India to wake up just like China did and they'll be in the top 5 guaranteed.
Jackson White

Politicians aren't the problem. The entire system is just a tool, you have to understand this. The same system that made America great is the same system destroying it.
You should look between the lines to truly find your enemy in the world.
Nicholas Hill

Ayden Gonzalez
>MUH TAX CUTS! yeah okay thanks for admitting you don't give a shit about fixing the climate and that you're a selfish prick with no offspring to think of.
You're practically the same as a opium junkie that doesn't give a fuck how his actions affect others and is willing to destroy the whole world for his high.
>muh 2A rights shit you don't need and would never actually use to overthrow a government because you're selfish and only give a shit about getting high off of whatever materialism you worship
Asher Sanders
Is China a paper tiger?
Cameron Clark
>Muh 12 years Also, rich for you to call me a materialist considering there’s a 99% chance I live more modestly than you do. Never mind that my lifestyle is likely far more eco friendly than yours.
Maybe.
Grayson Williams

It's in his genetics to distrust China
Carter Long
What are you 2 going to be complaining about when the government comes and takes your guns away from YOU?
>I live more modestly than you do Then you shouldn't give a fuck about tax cuts, but you already blew your cover on that argument so don't bother making any others >muh 12 years I never gave you a time frame because im honest enough to admit I don't know when the real damaging affects will take place, but they will happen sooner or later and it will be catastrophic. I don't give a fuck about guns because they're not an instrument of change, only an instrument of false hope of change.
Jackson Ortiz
They have no real modern combat experience, however their equipment is modern and what isn't is being modernised quickly. Their navy is rapidly evolving and so is their air force but right now they are essentially untested and it could go either way in a war with another superpower.
Jason Sanchez
I dunno. I guess I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it. Run, hide, fight. Whatever the case, giving up is the last thing I wanna do.
Taxes literally finance the fucking system that’s destroying the environment, you inbred cretin. You’re probably just defensive and projecting because you’re the materialist, and I bet you actually pay taxes into the system. Again, my lifestyle is almost certainly more eco friendly than yours.
Joseph Gomez
>Bigger population means more spending on everything, including military. Not really, again see other big population countries like India or Mexico.
China desperately wants to replace the US, which is why they heavily invest in their navy. >Again, wait 10 years for India to wake up just like China did and they'll be in the top 5 guaranteed. That would be a good thing since China trade relies on the indian sea.
Gavin Morales
lol wot? The same system that made America great isn't in America anymore.
The system now is outsourcing to find cheap labor. But it's not.
Xavier Reed
>they're not an instrument of change, only an instrument of false hope of change. I wish I could say the same to those Americans at Waco and Ruby Ridge.
Bentley Cook
>Taxes literally finance the fucking system that’s destroying the environment lol what the fuck are you talking about mouthbreather, tax cuts encourage industrialization which accelerates climate change
>muh little people >muh poor people poor people pay NOTHING in taxes as it is, but taxing materialistic items such as iphones and useless junk is a great idea, ontop of substantially raising taxes on corporations that produce that shit
No doubt you're a materialist if you care that much about tax cuts.

Jaxson Evans
Yeah actually there really have been some great presidents who brought great change and its possible for it to happen again if red state retards could gain 20 IQ points.
Lucas James
Well shit, it's not like they were doing anything wrong until the ATF literally started shooting at them in order to force them to retaliate. Imagine being a target because the government doesn't trust you with your guns (and getting killed and having the officers who murdered you Scott-free).
Brandon Wood
>Yes. Evidence? >Yes. Evidence? >They sound as obnoxious as you. Evidently not.
I check the frontpage of CNN and WSJ and I see neither HK protest nor China military spending.
oh no my paramilitary cult was disarmed how will i ever survive, everyone is equal under the law, even those morons
Ethan Howard
>everyone is equal under the law, even those morons Do you even know the story? Holy fuck they didn't do anything you retard.
Thomas Garcia
Poor people and the middle class pay the lions share of taxes in practice because corporations aggressively exploit loopholes, even Sen. Sanders and Warren agree. Again, you’re calling me a materialist when I objectively live a lifestyle that is probably a million times more modest than yours.
>Muh left right finger pointing. Fuck off. You’re such an uninspired oversocialized dullard thinking that this shit fixes anything. This country hasn’t had a good president since probably before my dad was even alive.
ask someone who actually speaks arabic, also your scalp looks vile.

Ayden Thomas
>Sen. Sanders and Warren agree you're so fucking retarded I don't know why you're even replying to me anymore, the whole idea is to end the loopholes, increase taxes for the rich and create an environment that consumers like you should be incentivized to not throw your money away on climate destroying nonsense >Muh left right finger pointing. its only the truth smoothbrain, red states overwhelmingly vote for candidates and policies that destroy the environment
Gabriel Robinson
>DDR using SKS Why didn’t they just use leftover stock from WW2?
Alexander Clark
They were cult fanatics that thought the world was going to end. So they sat in their little ranch until that date.
They didn't do anything illegal under US law except when the ATF and law enforcement decided to provoke and almost bully them into submission (i.e., a shootout).
It's like going into a gang-infested area and saying "were gonna take all your guns away you low-life niggers". Of course you're going to start a riot. Now imagine that with actual armed Americans living on their OWN property not breaking ANY US LAWS.
>they're not an instrument of change, only an instrument of false hope of change.
Too fucking young to know more and too fucking old to know so few.

Thomas Reyes
I hope someday that owning deadly firearms like that is breaking US laws. And yes the branch davidians did break the law with having illegal firearms and should have submitted to search and seizure peacefully and protested in court if they felt their rights were violated.
They inevitably resisted and were dealt with correctly.
Josiah Flores
UK has been covering the HK protests routinely more on mainstream BBC, ITV and Channel 4
Far far far more than the D-Notice blockade on covering the height of the French protests Giles Jaunes
James Bailey
I know enough, mein blanco fren.
Kevin Morris
Of course, UK feels it is responsible for HK.
And I just check BBC now, JACKSHIT about HK.
The gag order is on. No more Yellow vests and no more HK, protests bad!
Wyatt Smith
Yeah, cause blue cities are truly shining examples of environmental conservation, huh? I have deer in my backyard. I don’t care if you want to put taxes on luxury goods. I mean actual end of year 1040B tax form shit. If you wanna add some VAT on iPhones, or Chanpagne, or designer clothes, or luxury cars then have at it. But in all likelihood I reckon that won’t pass. It’ll be just like drumpft and his little cuck fence. >can’t pass get Mexico to pay for wall >”compromise” and charge it to the taxpayers >can’t close tax loopholes and pass VAT to finance your social programs >”compromise” and make up for the lost revenue by taxing the poor and middle classes.

>should have submitted to search and seizure peacefully and protested in court if they felt their rights were violated. Right, as if they were going to do that. I can't wait for all those future Americans to give up their weapons to the police and protest in court as they feel their rights were violated.
It's a good thing those Natives gave up their guns, oh wee it sure was illegal for them to have it due to Government regulations, right?
Parker Brooks
Great, if only the few millions that disagree stay in Venezuela.

oh and for the record those who live in cities very likely have a much smaller carbon footprint of not using a vehicle everyday and public transportation leaving a much smaller footprint
