The Philippine military released video of what it said was a nearly hour-long attack off Second Thomas Shoal in the contested South China Sea, where Chinese ships have unleashed water cannon and collided with Filipino vessels in similar stand-offs in recent months.
China Coast Guard and other vessels “once again harassed, blocked, deployed water cannons, and executed dangerous manoeuvres” against a routine rotation and resupply mission to the shoal Saturday morning, the National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea said.
I’ve also been to China in the past. It’s a great culture with great people, some of them who left the country and now live in the West are among our friends, and they share our ‘critical’ view of their home country.
It’s a tragedy what happens there now and I might never go there again. I don’t think we must be ashamed for having enjoyed it, though. I more feel sorry for the people there.
I don’t feel that way about it anymore. A great culture? Not so much. The country is filthy. People hang their laundry all over the fucking place. They live in dirt farms. It was ugly and unclean. And people there spit all the time to get the filth of pollution out of their lungs.
I’ve been to open sewers in Mexico that had more beauty in them than the entire nation of China. It’s a cesspool.
