On occasion, you actually get a LARPer who takes it seriously enough to turn it into crackpot activism and get arrested- the Yuyencia guy https://bitterwinter.org/jacob-pius-chinese-traditionalist-catholic-jailed/ quote:In 2014, a young man signing “Jacob Pius” surfaced in Chinese social media advocating for the independence of a “country” he called Yuyencia (幽燕西亚), which would include part of present-day Hebei, Beijing, and Tianjin. He supported the creation of Yuyencia with theories about the mythical Chinese first dynasty Xia. quote:“Jacob Pius,” however, remained in China. “Gao Yang” is a Catholic human rights activist who was interviewed by Hong Kong and Western media in 2019 and 2020 under this assumed name, and supplied information about the persecution in Hebei of Catholic “conscientious objectors” who rejected the Vatican-China deal of 2018. Bitter Winter has learned that “Jacob Pius” and “Gao Yang” are one and the same person. His real name is Pang Jian, and he was born in Baoding city, Hebei province, in 1991. He is a resident of Gaobeidian, a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Baoding city, and has published as “Gao Yang” on Hebei history and folklore.

I doubt anyone with actual power takes any of this seriously as these are just graphics without any numbers of people backing them, but occasionally these people do find their way to wriggle into events because no one is checking https://twitter.com/fareastyouth/status/1470541619090755584?s=20 https://twitter.com/fareastyouth/status/1470544520219488261?s=20

Not only that, I remember he got kicked by Trump because he was manipulating Trump in the North Korea affair and skimming (selling info to the press). Like he has an ugly resume. Why would DPP dug him up? LOL.

Yuyencian(Local spelling is “幽燕民族”) is an ancient nation，often called”Yan(燕)”as we short name. We have a common language, it is called “Yenpolish(燕语)”, like Mandarin. We live in Yenland(燕地), it is located Far East between Eurasia prairie and the Pacific Ocean ,Specifically, it is in the west coast of the Bohai Sea(渤海), north and south sides of Yanshan(燕山), and between the Haihe River Basin(海河). Therefore, we are both an Inner Asia nation and a marine nation. Our main religious faith is Roman Catholicism, we have a lot of martyrdom saints, Our Loyalty church is a Catholic fortress in the Far East. Yenpolish wtf

My SO is learning Japanese and the more I find out about the language the more I think it's been made specifically to gently caress with people. Why does it have three different counting systems. Why are half the words borrowed from Chinese and picked specifically to mean similar but different things from the Chinese word. Who would do this

i'm partial to turkish have different grammatical tenses for knowing something because you saw it and knowing something because someone told you about it. an absolutely baffling grammatical convention that's nonetheless actually kind of useful and opens up entirely new ways of lying or avoiding blame if things go wrong. more languages should have goofy stuff like that. makes you stand out on the linguistic stage Zedhe Khoja has issued a correction as of 21:41 on May 2, 2023 |
