true say

but fuck those machiavellians still

@Natasha :mastodon: πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί I'm not 100% a China stan, but Xi exudes such an air of humble confidence. He always looks like a real leader.
@ferret the bar has been set so low that competence looks like genius. The American ruling class are basically burglars in fancy suits
@Natasha_Jay Outstanding photograph πŸ˜‚
@Natasha_Jay I never thought I would get a chance to watch civilizational suicide but Trump fixed that

@Natasha_Jay

Those sneaky Chinese, not getting involved in war crimes, genocide, illegal invasions, assassinations or kidnappings.

They must be up to something.

/Sarcasm

The 'developed' world's projection is showing.

@houba @Natasha_Jay Zij verstaan de kunst van het oorlogvoeren. ☺️
@houba @Natasha_Jay They must be the bad guys
@houba @Natasha_Jay China has been doing a lot of kidnappings and genocide of minority ethnic groups. The Uyghurs since 2014, tons of people in Hong Kong since 2019 …

@bob_zim @houba @Natasha_Jay

I do find it hilarious that a country funding and taking part in a genocide dares to claim concern over alleged crimes against humanity supposedly being committed by their enemy.

@bob_zim

We call it genocide, tankies call it "projection", "allegations", lies

@Natasha_Jay
Excellent. I heard people talking about this quote, attributed to Napoleon, just a day or two ago. They must've been taking about this cover.
@Natasha_Jay
Handing over leadership of green energy and transportation to China is a great shame. So many potential jobs lost by Trump's pollution-hugging.

Emperor Palpatine humbled by Winnie the Pooh is a helluva fanfic

@Natasha_Jay

The only question is:
Which mistake was it? There have been SO MANY. I'd guess all of them. That's why he's smiling so widely.

@Natasha_Jay

Republican news tonight:, "The Economist is WOKE!!!"

@Natasha_Jay It feels like the jealous girlfriend should be in this picture
@Natasha_Jay I know Trump sees China as an enemy, but I think China sees America as a competitor.
@Natasha_Jay
Now to get "someone" to spank him with it.
