Sis, no one buys this "neither DC or Beijing!" rhetoric that is only pushed by those within the imperial core with material interests in the US military continuing to thrive. It's not convincing posturing in 2023. "Both should be eradicated". Okay, so make America go first.

You sound like Vaush. An American reiterating that both major world powers can only lose influence if America is weakened first given it fuels the conflict gives credence to my worldview, not yours, since it shows that America's hegemony is so overt even its own citizens say "enough!".

Then vote, oh I forgot you don't even live in a democracy to do anything about it. So yes, you are right. Once you Americans are out of this world then maybe this planet can know peace.

Communion Posted February 4, 2023 Posted February 4, 2023 (edited) For those who don't know realize yet, it was a weather surveillance balloon, as acknowledged in the tweet above. Not a spy balloon. Edited February 4, 2023 by Communion

Katy V.! Posted February 5, 2023 Posted February 5, 2023 I'm screaming at everyone's response to this especially because both China and the US allegedly have higher capabilities than whatever this mess was (bfr, just TikTok/FB is enough).
harwee Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 They should have seized it and see whats in there. It is not that big. Politicians truly are drama queens because they are literally doing fuck all
Bosque Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) Wow the Chinese government is sure interested in weather data from all regions of the world Curious that the Chinese government rejected talks proposed by the USA to discuss the matter? After all, it was all a simple misunderstanding that could have been cleared up really quickly in a phone call? Edited February 8, 2023 by Dephira
Bang Up Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Biden handled it the way it should've been handled. And did so smartly. They jammed its communications and monitored it to make sure it wasn't a threat. Once they realized it wasn't a threat, they allowed it to continue drifting until they could SAFELY shoot it down. I don't get what's so hard to understand about that? It was a ******* balloon that got caught in a jet stream and drifted over here. Not everything the Chinese do is some big conspiracy out to get the US. And let's say it was their way of "testing" our defenses. The fact that we didn't immediately send out jet fights for a goddamn balloon shows how we're not easily triggered by stuff like this. The USA doesn't have to prove its military strength or constantly jump the gun to fight back. Only weak countries, like Russia, have to constantly prove how strong they are. Here's the polar jet stream's path: http://michaelm.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/jetstream-110512_thumb.jpg Here's the balloon's path: http://cdn.statcdn.com/Infographic/images/normal/29242.jpeg

What is the topic? How many people did this dangerous balloon kill in Latin America? Did you even see this balloon? Why are you so bothered by people talking about emissions when climate change is killing people. We just had the wettest Month on record in my city last month, there were huge floods, some people died. This followed the warmest year on record for my country in 2022, where we also had the wettest and warmest winter on record. Other countries have had much worse, e.g. Pakistan in 2022 where thousands died or were injured or lost their homes. But you'd rather be frightened of a balloon you can't see, because some American media outlets told you to be frightened of the bad Chinese. The only harm it did was embarrass some politicians. Imagine if someone shot down an American balloon, the US would be threatening trade sanctions. Maybe if it was a small country, there would be some sort of retaliation attack.
