Hi, dumbass here, but one country, two systems, sounds like having a colony, and I feel like China having a colony would be...Not good? Edit: Wait, that would be one system, two countries. What the hell is one country, two systems?

Leave posted:Hi, dumbass here, but one country, two systems, sounds like having a colony, and I feel like China having a colony would be...Not good? “One country two systems” 一国两制 and “fifty years without change” 五十年不变 are the specific promises made by the Deng government to the people of Hong Kong in preparation for the handover from the British. In particular there were worries that Beijing would interfere with the market economic system, democratic governance, and/or free press that existed in HK as a British territory, and Beijing made assurances that those would not change “for fifty years.” It’s been twenty-five years since the handover and none of those things remain in any substantial form.

Yeah, there was a spat of brief but intense civil unrest in 2019/early 2020 as Hong King’s Western-leaning youth and intelligentsia fought tooth and nail against Beijing’s diktats. Those that weren’t arrested either fled to the West or are keeping their heads down. Honestly, gently caress Xi and the CCP. Hopefully they’ll fall sooner rather than later.

With the course you should be able to get basic immediately and then use the partial implementation to coast to advanced if you actually go on those ships and be golden until you explode from not knowing anything I guess

Whoever the gently caress Jackie is was interviewing a retired General (Jack Keane? Doesn't he do FOX?) yesterday about Russia and Ukraine; at one point, Jackie tried to twist his arm into going along with the "WE ARE OWNED BY SAY NICE THING ABOUT " company line and you could tell he was growing irritated that he was trying to make sense (and was) and she was responding ("I can see that you're insisting on stepping on me, Jackie") with the standard FOX News "Nuh-uh!".
