    China is doing a Speedrun in destroying their reputation. Began with COVID, then market confidence, now this (of course this isn’t the first instance).

      This is one person, not all of China.

        How can we really know for sure? Maybe China is actually just one person moving really, really fast, wearing all sorts of different costumes.

        That must be exhausting, no wonder they had trouble making a room temperature superconductor.

          If it was Roger, he would have already renamed it to Bananarama.

      So did the US with Trump and Britain with Brexit. There’s lying everywhere.

      Hate to add to the polarisation and noise, but just wanted to highlight that we’re all at it.

        It’s almost like nation states are poor representations of the people who are forced to live under them.

          Only if you’re a poor or are otherwise considered unimportant.
