Chinese trying to control everything at home while spying on the rest of the world? Sounds like most governments tbh.
Yeah but thats a cop out. Western governments regularly kick out their leaders. Try that in China.Quote:

The US is turning up the heat because we're trying to ward off the recession that's either coming or here already. If there is a tense military situation that never turns into a fight we can increase military spending. Increased military spending means increased spending on US manufacturing (which is entire military at this point). Increased manufacturing will pull us out of the recession. Each party is going to race to look for reasons to spend at war-time levels, and like everything in America it all starts with an alarming convincing PR campaign. It will also be good for the banks which are dropping one by one atm.Quote:

Russia v. Ukraine is way too temporary to sustain the coming demand for manufacturing spending. We need something big and lingering and only China has been marketed to create that type of tension in the American public. Russia already blew it's load sucking at this war, North Korea is old news, Arabs/Muslims has already been exhausted and nobody else is marketable as a threat.

lol @ Pras 'the China agent'
https://hiphopdx.com/news/pras-trial...spiracy-begins
well I don't know. Pras never struck me as a very intelligent person. Nor did he have the pull / stature to make a lot of that stuff happen, I think. Possibly he made promises in return for illegal money he could never deliver on. Anyway, it still looks like homeboy's fucked. 22 years ew.
Fugees round up :
Lauryn = batshit crazy + religious nut
Wyclef = stole truckloads of money frop his Haiti relief fund + likes to pose in speedos on motorcycles
Pras = was relevant as a solo artist for about 3 full months + supposedly the evil genius (read : scapegoat) behind shady geopolitical moves
Clearly this ain't 1996.
At least they gave us some good music. That's more than I can say for Xi.
Pras trial continues with Leo DiCaprio on the stand

Someone gave Pras from the Fugees hundreds of millions of dollars? That sounds like a multiverse type scenario. Nothing makes sense anymore

Pras is more like a front for this guy, Jho Low. Did not expect this to go to trial actually.

That 2-3 Fugee members that have been accused of being involved in some type of international scale financial crime.
