"Independent separatists" .... He means 95% of the people living in Taiwan?

[patricktoulze]

This means that we have to wean ourselves off from any dependence on China.

[renatocorvaro]

Would you look at that, an authoritarian dictator calling for increased military. Shocker.

*Words of wisdom from a previous leader of China*
“China is not a superpower, nor will she ever seek to be one... If one day China should change her colour and turn into a superpower, if she too should play the tyrant in the world, and everywhere subject others to her bullying, aggression and exploitation, the people of the world should identify her as social-imperialist, expose it, oppose it and work together with the Chinese people to overthrow it.
Deng Xiaoping
On that note, it’s time for the PLA to fulfill their ORIGINAL mandate and “LIBERATE THE GOOD CHINESE PEOPLE FROM THEIR OPPRESSORS”

Guess who's gonna open the door for the Chinese army in Canada?

Trudeau was the worst thing to ever happen to Canada.

China is absolutely right about faster military growth.
This is the only way to deter bellicose US and protect Chinese national interests.

Our dear leader justin must be thrilled

[schumachered]

For a country that has based its economy on the western consumer, their belligerence is astounding. My hope is the western consumer realizes what their dealing with and puts an early end to it. You know how...

We need to compel U.S. corporations to divest in China. That especially includes Mitch McConnel's Chicom shipping container business. We also need to interdict and inspect commercial and private ships going from Asia to Mexico for fentanyl and fentanyl precursors.
