I wasn't criticizing you, I agree with you.

I just think the idea that them asking for help from America makes them bad is foolish. Syrian rebels asked America for help. Lybian rebels. Kurds and Shia Iraqis fighting isis. Etc.

But I do think unfortunately us stepping in and helping them would be far too risky of escalating the conflict with China. So they're basically doomed.

But just look at that! *gag*

They're appealing to his ego. Very smart tbh.

You also have to keep in mind what they're resisting. We're over here worried about Trump who is treating migrants inhumanely.

They're resisting being at risk if extradition to China, who literally sends people to slave camps for the slightest thought crime and executes people at will

Trump'd do that if he could.

He probably wants to bring in more Asian people to do math.

But he can't. China can and does.

Tbh, we should just trade Puerto Rico to China in exchange for Hong Kong. I mean, really, it's not like we're doing anything with it.

:laughing:

That's not exactly a fair trade. We'd have to throw in Hawaii or Florida.
