For what they have done to us.

Close to 3 trillion, and I can bet my last dollar it will end up being 3 times this long term.

KMC had or maybe still has a strong stance against socks. Which I always thought was weird. Not because of banning sock accounts from forum rule breakers, but the unilateral banning of any socks under any conditions I've seen over the years.

I lost access to my original account almost ten years ago because of a mixture of an expired Yahoo email account and a harddrive failure (I had the password saved to the machine/browser). I'll never get that account back, so I sock out of necessity. Might even hold the record at this point, unintentionally.

Plus there are some posters here who have had dozens of socks so it wouldn't even be a thing people could talk shit about if Broly pops back up with a sock. It can't only be okay for some people.

I don't think there is cause for punishing China. It's true that the virus has originated from there, however there is not really that much that can be done about it. Viruses like this will develop from time to time, and China is a very big country that is still developing, it would be unreasonable to directly blame them for it. The Spanish Flu, for example, originated in the US, but there, too, it would have been unreasonable to blame the US for it, in my view.

If we do want to assign blame we would need to look at it more holistically. In retrospect we can of course say, they need more strict measurements to ensure that wet markets do not become a cesspool. Similar can be said for the anti-biotic resistance that Western countries currently create in their industrialized animal agriculture.

eThneoLgrRnae
No cause for punishing them my ass.

Artol
Even if you think there is cause for punishing China. Do you think there is much desire in most countries to punish them? And what exactly could be done to punish them that wouldn't have significant consequences for the countries that do the "punishing" as well?

I guess from my POV, leaving aside that I don't think it is sensible to think of it as reasonable to blame China for the outbreak, there's not really much that could be done, the idea of cancelling debt unilaterally seems unlikely, for one China would retaliate, and other countries would likely see it more as a failing of the country cancelling the debt to keep it's contracts.

Additionally there has already been a trade war between the US and China, with at best mixed results. Certainly no clear win for either side, imo.

eThneoLgrRnae
Bottom line: China has to pay a price for what they did. Period.

Again though, how do you two propose that China gets punished? Do you think it is likely to work? And do you see any negative consequences for Western countries attempting to punish China?

Blakemore
Originally posted by Blakemore

Artol
If you impose a value added tax on Chinese manufactured goods wouldn't that hurt people in your own country. So many products would get suddenly much more expensive to buy.

I suppose there may be some chance that in the long run production gets established in a different country, but that also supposes that China would not retaliate. I don't really see a very feasible way to punish them that won't harm us just as much.

Blakemore
They pay a bit more on VAT and their exports get less sales. It's the only solution.

Artol
Oh more like a tariff then. Isn't that more or less what the US has been doing with China over the last few years, though?

Blakemore
Sure, keep doing what has been doing but a bit more harsh. Progress.

Artol
Right, yeah, I'm not sure whether that is effective. To me it seems like the previous tariffs weren't particularly effective either. And I think it will harm western countries as well, and that means more people losing their jobs and more strain on countries resources. (once the economy has recovered from the current issue).

Blakemore
It will probably impact shit jobs. Higher tariffs seems like the most sensible option imo.

So if we do nothing about this and in 10 or 20 years this happens again cuz of China and a Republican happens to be president I trust the people here saying to do nothing to China will never ever point the finger at the president and blame them for deaths. Correct?

What exactly do we punish China for, and how would it benefit the international community?

Trump isn't to blame for the coronavirus pandemic, although he had a slow and shit response to it, which contributed to the spread of the virus and subsequent deaths. Should the rest of the world punish the US over that for several years to come, too?

For instance: not cracking down more on wet blood markets.

That is a damn good start, don't you think? And if doing so prevented a virus spreading around the globe the international community would benefit greatly.

And side note: why the holy f*ck was China just added to the UN human rights panel?

Surtur
Hell the action we take could simply be...making sure these f*ckers crack down on those markets.

Oh and the WHO needs to be revamped as well.

I'm sure everyone who wants to punish China economically will be ensuring they never buy products that are wholly or partly manufactured in China from now on. That would be an equivalent of saying those who want to take in immigrants should let them live in their own houses

And democrats held up a bill too. Also before you try it: save your cucking for them and trying to imply one side did it for bad reasons and the other did it for noble reasons.

So despite the fact you will indeed play the special rules game it *still* doesn't alter the fact that by Jaden's logic anyone who wants to hold Trump accountable will tear up that check.

Ok. So people who want to help immigrants won't be doing anything personally to help immigrants and people who want to punish China won't be doing anything personally to punish China if it impacts either of them negatively.

you took a a jpeg from the SAME Reagan Battalion Twitter. is that the one-stop news source for smart people like you?

cant find a NYT link for context? the bill was blocked first because there were no stimulus checks and then because of lack of unemployment assistance, as i proved with my "fake news" wsj article + link.

where's your proof ronnie? are you going to post more memez?

Lol but I didn't lie. You have acknowledged it. It's just that your argument boils down to:

Both sides tried to stop it at one point. Republicans had evil reasons for doing it. Democrats had good stunningly brave reasons for doing it.

That is how this always works when democrats do the same shit as republicans. Special rules always come into play.

If there was a problem with the amount of available vital medical supplies, and Trump claims he recognized the problem years ago but didn't do anything to actually fix it, then that's Trump's f*cking fault, dude.

That's like buying a used car, noticing it needed an oil change, ignoring it, then blaming the last owner for negligence when the engine finally breaks down.

Yes, but he hasn't been the President for over 3 years, so the most of the blame should be on the dickhead who has been President for over 3 years, who didn't do dick about it, and sat with his thumbs up his ass as he told the country the entire pandemic was a goddamned hoax created by his political opposition.

You say "most of the blame" and fair enough assuming people place some on Obama.

In your experience, have those whining about Trump placed an iota of blame on Obama? Like have you encountered a single soul doing that?

Held a gun to Xi's head and forced him to lie, keep wet blood markets open. Also forced the WHO to lie and cuck for China.

Also forced democrats to downplay the virus even after he restricted travel to China. Also forced democrats to try to virtue signal and delay the stimulus bill. Also forced them to act deranged and constantly try to score political points. Also forced DiBlasio to encourage people to go out via tweet on March 20th.

No, they haven't, because people usually only think in the now, the recent past, and the near future...and in terms of action in response to the pandemic, those are really the time frames that matter.

There was nothing begrudging about it. If vital medical supplies were critically low during his administration, Obama should have taken action to restock somehow, especially if it was a known problem.

Trump claims he knew about both the medical supply shortage and the threat of a pandemic, didn't do anything about resupplying, made light of the COVID-19 crisis and claimed it was a political hoax to undermine his support, and took his sweet f*cking time invoking the Defense Production Act to finally resupply after the shit hit the fan here at home.

One was either negligent or unaware of the problem, the other was negligent and insisted it wasn't a problem at all until it got exponentially worse. Both share the blame, but in no way is it an equal share.

One was either negligent or unaware of the problem, the other was negligent and insisted it wasn't a problem at all until it got exponentially worse. Both share the blame, but in no way is it an equal share.

And when it comes to equal shares of blame nobody holds a candle to the blame that needs to be placed on China and the WHO.

Positively go f*ck yourself if you can't handle the truth.

That's a seperate yet not unrelated discussion.

I agree that China must tighten food safety regulations going forward, but they don't deserve to be punished the way others in the thread think they ought to be. It wouldn't be good for our relations with them, or for the international community. It's the sort of thing that spawns war.

U say they don't deserve to be punished the way others think, is this saying u feel there is a way they should be punished? If so, what way?

Not since the last encounter with your mother.

It still burns, but I should be good to go after a few more weeks of applying the prescribed topical cream.

I think Eon just chokes himself with a belt until he passes out, then he wakes up less angry.

I should have guessed oxygen deprivation as the culprit. I'll be more sensitive to his condition going forward.

Take some anger management, big guy. It could do wonders for little man syndrome.

You really shouldn't antagonize someone when they're triggered.Do you know the stress they feel and show and how red their face gets? Stop it Eon

No I honestly don't know this.

But then where does Emmy come in? Did Eon create a sock just to mock him further?

Well they all seem to agree with each other so it's hard to separate parody from reality.
