Uhh you’re chinese
I personally believe that Redditors are constantly braying for Chinese blood and this unrelated collision just happened to occur.
This is legitimately one of the most unhinged threads i have ever seen and that is truly saying something.
Stay away from /r/noncredibledefense then… The sheer number of “look guys I know we’re all disappointed, I too was champing at the bit to split the skulls of a hundred million removed untermenschen and blow up vast swathes of civilian infrastructure, but sadly this excuse is slightly too bullshit even for us” comments was truly wild.
I dodnt know what that sub is and now i do oh fuck oh no
American foreign policy - particularly americans talking about foreign policy - makes me want to die of dutch elm disease. As the late, great english-german disco author Georgio Moroderwell put it, “Imagine freedom fries. Forever”
God damn this is impressive. I spend my time hate browsing /r/worldnews and neoliberal and this is just something else.
There is a word for people hating a particular ethnic group with zero rational reasons.
I wonder what that word is
White.
You know that last comment is from an American
And it’s pure projection lmao. Has this numbnuts forgotten all the wars the US has started?
the angloid parietal lobe is only capable of retrospection up to 2 months
they literally cannot remember the invasion of Libya, nor other important events in history, likely because the anglo saxon climate is so abundant with regular rainfall, cool summers, warm winters, and lack of natural disasters that there was never any need for future planning or past reflection–the latter of which is necessary to even begin to parttake in an honest view of history.
Contrast this with other climates like in India China Africa or even Eastern Europe, where the presence of either a dry season, a cold season, or predictable natural disasters would have required planning and forethought, as well as reflection on past handling of these stresses. Humans here would have had to save and store either scarce food/wood resources or water resources on a massive scale, in order to make it through the cold (Russia) or dry (India) winter, instead of simply living in the moment with your needs instantaneously met by a humid rainy climate that never goes above 75F or below 40F.
(this is a bit but I’m honestly beginning to convince myself)

yeah China’s not the UK even if they were to import food they could do it overland
My friend’s partner grew up in China, when I asked them they said people who tend to have more money prefer imported food due to their negative association with food produced in China.
When I asked why, they said some of it seemed to be a holdover from the earlier tumultuous periods in China’s recent history. They said their family would only eat imported beef for example. Note, this person could attend a school in the imperial core as an international student, they aren’t representative of the average Chinese citizen, this is only an anecdote and should be treated as such.
I don’t have a source for the following, unfortunately, but I was reading about the introduction in China of domestic production of pharmaceuticals to decrease costs and, you know, own the means of production. Some drug manufacturers couldn’t compete or had to reduce costs by a large margin. For some that couldn’t compete, they would license their branding for the domestic drugs since they had the trademarks and IP for it. One thing which I think is a corollary to what my friend’s partner said, is that the article mentioned some wealthier Chinese would import brand-name drugs with the same active ingredient as the domestic one, because they thought they would be more effective.
What really got me was in the article they mentioned that only like, a set number of drugs are introduced, and even then places like hospitals have to bid on them in some way. As well, they don’t get approved without rigorous testing. The anecdotes from the wealthier folks was that the imported stuff was better (i.e. more effective), if only slightly. The article also mentioned a few reports (I think from social media?) of people having apparent adverse reactions after they changed to the domestically produced drug. They also mentioned that there wasn’t any research or studies showing that to be the case, and it was only a handful of reports. Something that was being investigated at present.
well that sounds like there is local beef but some would prefer not to eat it.
Also the local vs foreign drugs might be a placebo effect
Yeah, plenty of people but Tylenol instead of generic acetaminophen
Isn’t Russia literally the world’s largest producer of wheat?
I sure wonder how China would get food without maritime trade.
When your understanding of economics comes from the Adam Smith institute.
I read that as the Adam Sandler Institute

In response to a comment explaining that neither ship was Chinese:
And this is why China needs to stop being gigantic bullies and jerks in those waters. It leads to tensions where even routine stupid collisions in very crowded waters are instantly assumed to be hostile actions. If this had been a Chinese ship that had been struck, the Chinese would have instantly reacted the same way and they would have started howling for blood before the facts were known. Until China dials down the aggression, this area is a powder keg that they have created and sparks are flying every day. Today’s mishap was another spark and everybody is lucky that the shooting didn’t start. It’s up to the Chinese to stop this and dial back the tension.
edit: wow, the China trolls are out for this comment! Sorry, kids. Have a nice afternoon.
China made me shit my pants
China is the reason my wife left me!!!
Nobody tell Redditors about Reddit Island’s policies regarding the South China Sea.
The icing on this turd is that the US just started their war games with the Philippines in the South China Sea yesterday
Lol remember when the US fired their wunderwaffle HIMARS in their last round of exercises with the Philippines? They launched the missiles at a target hulk and all of them missed. They basically went “well, if that was a Chinese ship they’d be real scared.”
Or the two naval bases there.
“Ah well, nevertheless”
Really makes you think
luminosity levels rivalling a quasar
If this had been a Chinese ship that had been struck, the Chinese would have instantly reacted the same way and they would have started howling for blood before the facts were known.
Bro still can’t accept the embarrassment after shooting a $1 million missile at a child’s weather balloon
At least the replies to that post roundly rejected it though, even though this post managed to be upvoted. Trying to stay as bloomer as possible lol.
“If I simply project even harder, we can imagine a made-up scenario where I am the reasonable one. Checkmate!”

I am the main character of the universe and am so important that the Chinese government is personally targeting me.
“If the situation had been completely different the Chinese might have done something bad if they acted like how I, someone who clearly hates Chinese people, presume they would act!”
Makes you think.
If China had done it, they would’ve reacted the same way. Why are they such bullies in this scenario I made up in my head? Now I’m angry, which is also China’s fault!
The absolute dressing on this is how many of these dipshits immediately thought it was Chinese, without realizing if that were the case the headline would be something akin to ‘Three dead and dozens injured after Chinese vessel collides with Philippines fishing merchant after taking dangerous route’.
The media is already nearly as sinophobic as possible and it STILL isn’t good enough for these baying hounds.

The original title of the article called the accident an attack, before they confirmed it was not a chinese boat.
This might be the most Reddit moment of all Reddit moments to ever Reddit moment.
At a certain point I’ve become a little impressed with how deeply they’ve managed to embed those
in redditors. The ones that aren’t outright bots are more worm than brain by now
All those dorks talking about the mandate of heaven in an extremely orientalist way. Did Liz Truss have the divine right of kings? Lmao
It always tickles me when Westerners talk about “face” and “saving face”. Like bruh are you seriously going to tell me you don’t understand the concept of doing things to avoid embarrassment?
Yeah but when we do it it’s normal and natural, when the other does it it’s because of a millenia old spiritualistic religious ancient ritual observance protocol, that their brainpan isnt advanced enough to dismiss.
Do different culture have different words for similar things? No… they are aliens with no relatable qualities… It really shows how chaunvinistic and racist folks are.
Yes she just lost it extremely quickly to a lettuce
Uncritical support for the divinely mandated lettuce
lmao stop reading worldnews. It’s been a shithole since its founding and won’t ever change.
*since the deep state took over Reddit
Evil motherfuckers
No other words for this behavior
