Chinese plan to boost 'masculinity' with Physical Education classes sparks debate

India = Late Qing. Delusional, weak and backwards.

At least the Late Qing got intimidated by those industrialized European powers.

However, the backward India still believes she is more powerful than the biggest industrialized power in the history of the mankind.

So India overall is even more delusional.

not according to what wikipedia says about the Boxer rebellion.

" The Boxers, armed with rifles and swords, claimed supernatural invulnerability towards blows of cannon, rifle shots, and knife attacks. Furthermore, the Boxer groups popularly claimed that millions of soldiers would descend out of Heaven to assist them in purifying China of foreign oppression. "

loonies vs guys with guns.

Modern CCP China is certainly more powerful than India but at least these Indians are guys with guns standing against modern non loonie Chinese guys with guns.

Ming dynasty is one of the worst dynasty in China. Self owned destruction with deep corruption with ill efficiency.

There is more than firing a bullet in ground military...

Of course there is, I'm just pointing out that this move doesn't really make sense, unless you consider it from a purely PR standard.

It's like how the US portrays its soldiers to be these muscle bound manly men, but then you learn the truth that a lot of their soldiers are actually quite tooth pick type of skinny, with just enough muscles to get the job done.

In America, only lesbians are allowed to be masculine.

Man, you usually say a lot of braindead sh*t, but this is genuinely really funny.

This was caused by Empress Dowager Cixi, and she did play with fire for her own political gain.

She was a selfish woman who was also extremely power hungry.

Most Qing Dynasty's Manchu elites were more rational, and they were already intimidated by the western civilization since 1840.

You know, the modern US also had a POTUS who would likely play with fire just like her, which was Donald Trump.

Pretty sure that Trump would press the nuclear button on China for his political fiasco. Fortunately, his nuclear button was already inactivated during the very last year of his presidency.
