        Yeah, sure…

        From the article you linked… https://www.newsweek.com/china-russia-ukraine-war-dong-jun-conflict-shoigu-1866797

        China’s defense minister, Dong Jun, gave his full support to Russia’s war in Ukraine during a video call with his Russian counterpart, Sergei Shoigu.

        China’s newly appointed defense chief and Shoigu discussed boosting military cooperation and coordination as the Russia-Ukraine war drags on. Tensions surrounding the Ukraine crisis have tested the resilience of the China-Russia partnership, with Beijing supporting the Kremlin’s plans economically rather than openly amid international pressure.

        The Russian government released a video of Dong Jun’s message to Shoigu, in which he said China would stand with Russia on the Ukraine issue despite pressure from the U.S. and Europe.

          That’s literally not the article I linked. Also we are talking about a call to a ceasefire, which China has called for on both conflicts.

          *Edit: Also

          Beijing supporting the Kremlin’s plans economically rather than openly amid international pressure.

          China is also the US’s second largest trade partner. Your article is just repeating that yes, China will sell to countries that commit war crimes. They never said they would stop and your article is loudly proclaiming it. That’s nice, but irrelevant.

            Russia is a vassal state of China. If China wanted to stop the invasion of Ukraine they could. Instead they are funding the invasion of Ukraine by buying Russian oil.

            Also, US intelligence warned the world that Russia was invading Ukraine before it happened. That means US intelligence knows things the rest of the world doesn’t. So if US intelligence says it’s important to support Israel then they have earned my trust.

              Israel is a vassal state of USA. If USA wanted to stop the invasion of Palestine they could. Instead they are funding the invasion of Palestine by SENDING LITERAL WEAPONS OF DEATH.

              Also, Chinese intelligence warned the world that USA was causing havoc in the middle east before it happened. That means Chinese intelligence knows things the rest of the world doesn’t. So if Chinese intelligence says it’s important to be neutral and continue business with Russia then they have earned my trust.

                Israel was attacked on October 7th by Hamas. That is what caused Israel to enter Gaza.

                The same can’t be said about Ukraine.

                But keep pushing Chinese propaganda like you care, even while China openly talks about their plans to invade Taiwan.

                  Donbas and Luhansk was constantly attacked by Ukraine. That’s what caused Russia to enter Ukraine.

                  The same can’t be said about Palestine.

                  But keep pushing American propaganda like you care, even while USA is openly talking about bombing TMSC to the ground if China invades Taiwan.

                  *Edit: Or how America openly talks about invading Mexico, assassinates Iranian people, refuses to remove bases from Iraq and Syria in opposition to their sovereign government wishes. I could go on.

      “if I don’t like someone, everything they say is wrong”

      Did you know water is wet? Or are you going to disagree with that one too?

        China is open about their plans to invade Taiwan and are actively trying to undermine the US so they can launch their invasion. That’s a good reason to not trust them on the subject.

        It has nothing to do with liking someone. Leave your feelings out of it.

            Your article says some cherry picked Republicans who are following Trump may want to invade Mexico.

            That’s not the “US”.

            Gee I wonder why you would lie about what the article says.

            Besides Trump is Putins biggest fanboy so obviously Trump is going to try to be like Putin.

              Besides Trump is Putins biggest fanboy so obviously Trump is going to try to be like Putin by invading other countries.

              Lol the leader of the election polls to be the next president is literally saying he’ll invade Mexico. Sure Mexico has no worries. It’s just the likely leader of USA saying it.

                Your article doesn’t say he will invade Mexico. It says Trump wants to go after the cartel in Mexico that are causing the fentanyl crisis in the US.

                Trump says stupid shit that’s why he lost the 2020 election.

                Polls predicted Hillary Clinton to win in 2016. How accurate were those polls?

                Also, the US isn’t a dictatorship so the president doesn’t have the power to invade countries.

                Do any of these facts change your stance on the subject? No because you’re arguing in bad faith and pushing Chinese/Russian whataboutisms.

                  Gotcha! Yes it is whataboutism. Just like what you’re doing with China and their calls for peace in Gaza. Everything you said about China is arguing in bad faith and pushing US whataboutisms.

                  *Edit I love it I knew you were going to do this. Look at my comments above I’ll quote myself

                  *Edit: I’m really hoping you’ll resort to whataboutism. Since your entire argument is a whataboutism. You’re saying you won’t believe genocide victims because what about China doing stuff that has nothing to do with Gaza.
