I'm going to assume that there are some rich dudes on that ship with their younger gf, while their wife is at home.  I wonder if a 1 week business trip got extended and what they had to tell their wife.  Or if the wife at home is wondering why her baby sitter cannot come to work for the same amount of time her husband is "out of town".

It's obvious the Chinese gov't is not going to do anything to help the US gov't look good.  Hell, they tried to spread rumors that the pandemic is the result of a US Army bio-weapon.

However, they can earn PR points in the press by helping our Massachusetts hospitals out via a private endeavor.  Even the private Boeing 767 was required to carry its own spare tires and parts (China can't guarantee parts if needed), and the plane  was allowed 3 hours on the ground.  They refueled, got the crew something to eat, loaded 1.2 million masks, and were airborne in 2 hours 57 minutes.  I just hope someone performs some QA testing to make sure these aren't the bad ones other countries got from China.

If you're expecting the gov't to do everything, you haven't been paying attention.

Well, surrounding China with military bases, aircraft launched missiles, and the Seventh Fleet all poised to attack them is not the best way to maintain diplomatic relations.

That is what a true anti-China war-hawk, so consumed by jealousy and hatred of China, that a clear gesture of humanitarian aid is met with bitter contempt and suspicion would say.

Leave it to you to defend China against the US... or ANY OTHER COUNTRY against the US.   :sleeping:

Nice deflection.

I defend acts of humanitarian aid that is in desperate need by all people in the US suffering Covid-19 against the imperialists, war junkies, military industrial complex, etc., who will stop at nothing in perpetuating the animosity to those countries that they need to hate, despite the pandemic war currently being fought by the Trump Administration.

I'm no longer interested in engaging Kuleana.  I may change my mind when someone uncovers an ICBM silo in Kunia.  Until then ...

There is a definite argument for letting them run their own hemisphere. At some point we will come to the conclusion that everyone else inevitably reached throughout history, which is that Empire is not a sustainable economic model. It is comparable to a drug habit. Really exciting at first and then in a few short years you lie dying in a gutter with no friends.

The other argument is that without the US being the big bad enemy there is not much to hold the Xi regime together. They have a lot of problems but manage to distract their population with brinksmanship, like some other countries I know.
I’m becoming clinically undepressed and thinking about beginning it all.
