War Is Peace. Freedom Is Slavery. Ignorance Is Strength.
it's pretty much literally the official line now https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/03/president-trump-is-leading-with-peace-through-strength/
None? Not a single one? Can't think of anything? That borders on ridiculous
They’re famous for not using their tanks to kill people.
Unironically true as anybody who actually watched the tank man video would know https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YeFzeNAHEhU
Come on man I gave you a hint I'm not going to hold your hand to google.com
Not even close. You're disappointing.
I'd be so insulted right now if I had a shred of respect for you.
China hasn't been at war since the 70s. That's a fact.
China, as a part of the U.N., has been taking part in the Mali war. Here is an article from 2016 in which officials address this fact.
China now has more than 2,400 peacekeepers in Mali and other African countries, she said, adding that the country would continue to positively contribute to U.N. peacekeeping missions to help ensure peace and stability in Africa.
U.N. peacekeeping
Lol, I guess they are involved...
nice try buddy
Nice try? WTF are you on about?
about you trying to equate sending UN peacekeepers with starting wars
You included the Yemeni Civil War. Same situation.
Nice try #1.
You didn't say "no war that they started," you said "no wars, that's a fact," which I was responding to and proving false.
Nice try #2.
🥱
Alright, I'm done with your lying and moving goalposts. I'm gonna do what I always do with people who act in bad faith and block you.
But first, I'll say, I cited the Mali civil war because it's ongoing. They were also one of two parties in the Sino-Vietnamese war after Vietnam invaded Cambodia. This was in 1979, with ongoing smaller conflicts until the 90s.
They also took control of the Paracel Islands during the Vietnam War, 1974.
And while neither of these were started by China, your original stance didn't include that little asterisk, you just moved the goalposts when you were proven wrong by the proud, public admission of Chinese officials.
While China may not have been involved in many conflicts, or started any of them themselves, neither of these classifiers were a part of your original position, and you only started shifting when people proved you wrong. You're a petulant child who can't stand to say "I was wrong."
reddit moment lmfao
Amazing word salad to say you're full of shit.
