😂 Americans pretending Hong Kong is not part of China is hilarious. The official Olympics site isn't based on US education though..."Hong Kong, China". But not as funny as Chinese Taipei added to Chinese medal tally, supported by basic English language. Cope with losing to Chinese in a more intelligent way. Brigade failed miserably, and Canada / Philippines aren't US territories (no such thing in Olympics as American Manila or American Ottawa, there IS Chinese Taipei)...education system in serious trouble. Puerto Rico 2 bronze doesn't help genius. Even without HK, US didn't actually win more than PRC. US anthem wasn't played more times. TeamUSA with 200+ more athletes got more 2nds and 3rds.
Imagine spreading doping propaganda only to lose a 60 year gold streak to swimmers tested 4 times more 😂 https://i.imgur.com/yk2mOCr.png
Which country has the most athletes in 2024 Paris Olympics U.S. 593 total athletes. Host nation France 573, Australia (460), Germany (427), Japan (404), Italy (403), China (388), Spain (382), Great Britain (327) and Canada (318) rounding out the top 10
Every time China supports Palestine UN membership trolls bring up Taiwan. Around 140 countries recognize Palestine as a country. Stop embarrassing yourselves and getting more people to search the night and day difference.
It's that time of year again! The New Year for the Chinese calendar. Again, whether your calendar is rooted in the Chinese calendar or not (wikipedia and/or AI can help), you don't get a say on what the Chinese calendar new year is called. Regardless what it's called, the traditions are Chinese as well (script calligraphy, lanterns, fireworks, firecrackers, zodiac animal, red envelope, etc.), so suggesting all lunar calendars (Chinese one is lunisolar btw) celebrate with them is even more absurd.
Tibet, Xinjiang, HK, SCS...is Taiwan some sort of '5th times the charm' desperation? 😂
If you are new, go through the fakenews flair and these inconvenient truths 1 2 first to be more informed.
CPC National Congress Reflection...of all the things anti China clowns hyped and then lost 1 2 in the last few years
Imagine "trolling" that the island of Taiwan is not Chinese with the literal Chinese flag in the early 1900s. Fun fact, nobody ever say the island was not Chinese when ROC sat in UN China seat. After PRC takes over that very seat magically it's different. 🤡
US continues to be forced to toss away their professed values trying to maintain hegemony. Free speech lost to user restrictions. Free media lost to news bans. Free economy lost to gov. led. Free trade lost to trade restrictions. Complete 180 on government in personal lives. No matter the excuse for it, the value being tossed isn't China's. That's what really gets under their skin. That their values failed and they had to abandon them.
Groups that bought into "U.S. values" rhetoric, worked for U.S. then got betrayed: Hmong (Vietnam), Syrian rebels, Kurds (ISIS), HK rioters, Guaido (Venezuela), Afghan servicemen/translators (Taliban, who are now mocking Iwo Jima photo while wearing US military gear 😂), Ukraine (Budapest Memorandum, NATO membership)
"aMeRiCa StAnDs WiTh TaIwAn!" -> then right after saying that America watched, from afar, as Taiwan literally got surrounded, blockaded and violated 1 2. Then had to stand there and listen to countries all over the world react to all this by restating they adhere to the One China Policy 1 2. Not praising US or supporting Taiwan. Black Sea shipping slowed to a crawl without Russian deal. How many defacto blockades can Westerners pretend not to see? No land alternatives for Taiwan genius. Median line is gone. Waters and air up to territorial limit is gone. Territorial waters around Taiwan claimed islands like Kinmen is gone.

With just one whole week in China, I know it isn't much time but where should I explore that I would get the most out of it? I’m especially focused on food, as it’s my top priority and of course I wouldn't mind a little sightseeing too.
Starbucks opens almost 800 stores in China. Committed to 9000 by mid 2025.
No BDS?
I'm not sure about China, but fine dining is held up as a gold standard in the US and many westerners, even those average in income, will try to go fine dining a few times a year.
Personally I haven't thought much about it, but some people here get really mad if you say you don't like fine dining. As if you're disrespecting their art.
Does China care as much about fine dining?
