The key is not to get mad. You are here to learn something and to exchange an opinion. Why succumb to provocation?
Threads like this are honey for trolling bees, whether the hindustanis who never feel secure, or the viets who feel aggrieved (rightly or wrongly).
Just ignore them. Don't...
I don't know why this otherwise sane, lively, and educational forum tolerates the "ostensibly PRC" trolls or false flaggers like SinoChallenger, a member of species that wouldn't survive on any reasonable Chinese forums.
Yet he is allowed to "thrive" here.
Well so be it, PDF.
Probably. I wouldn't be surprised. Even Ben Ali has families here and Qaddafi's family had connections, too.
Well same page or not, might as well get off your uncalled-for high horse on the "princelings" and shed your unfounded high hopes about "tuanpai".
... long list of irrelevancy over the larger scheme of thing, although I'll single out the last two:
Utter disgrace if you ask me.
BTW did you grow taller with that long list?
As I said, there is no need to compile a billion excuses to "encourage" others to learn Chinese.
I can never understand why the grandiose youth in the PRC derive oomph from people's desire to learn or not learn Chinese. Delusion and false flagging are never in short supply these days.
Frankly anyone who cares to think it through knows it is a huge advantage to keep the language to one's...
You have a point - only up to a point.
Gold in the hands of the Inca translated into neither wealth nor "power", while coal and iron in the hands of the English led to Empire (though not necessarily "desirable") and victories (for a time anyway).
Now did you ask yourself why the Princelings...
Gold does not feed you, clothe you, or shelter you.
How much gold did the Inca have?
"Steel" (in a figurative sense) is more important than gold.
Elaborate on that ... so in your mind the princelings treat the 99% like pigs? How so? The gold argument I already do not buy.
What is this partisan spiel with innuendos and wild statements? People understand the problem with the 1%. Yes the princelings are no longer the "vanguard of the proletariat" (heck never were), but neither were the Hus and Wens.
Were they not all corrupt? Life does suck. The East is...
First of all get a clue: this is about Iran. Exploit what rift? Iran is not a rift btw PRC and Uncle? Get a clue fool, before you talk about "art of war". And what "power" is there to be "recognized" when boxers like you roam the land? It's one thing if you are a "false flag". If to the...
I was learning a few things in this thread until some imbecile butted in. When did "resisting Japan" become "messing up Japan"? And when did China tear down the Berlin wall?
You think you are "war-like" on PDF and that's somehow a path to "respect". Boxers like you are most expendable...
