You'll fit into China well, unless you aren't Chinese already. 

 

What's wrong with the 'peasant'?

 

Please, make sure, you won't get suntan while working outdoors. Chinese will consider you 2nd grade citizen 'cause of the reflection of outdoor labour on the skin.

 

It's the same rule as it applies in Chinese traffic:

"'Cars always have a right way before ALL pedestrians and cyclists, i.e. stronger wins ..."

 

By the e-Tities posting rules, all Pedestrians, I mean all Peasants must always greet before the posting, as:

"Good morning! I am a Peasant, and ..." 

 

Snawar is a pea-sant, pea-sant, pea-saaant ... broken heart

snawar:

Hmmm, on second thought, I'm not really bothered by it anymore. Cause i guess it's pretty easy to climb the hierarchy since you clearly look like someone who wanked their way up

US Sails Warship Near Chinese-Claimed Reef, Testing New Maritime Lawteaser image

China again denounced the US as the 'biggest destroyer' of peace in the region...

FRI SEP 10, AT 1:20 AM   

 

The US Navy’s Seventh Fleet said the guided-missile destroyer USS Benfold passed within 12 nautical miles of Mischief Reef, a feature of the Spratly Islands that is controlled by China and also claimed by the Philippines and Vietnam. After China’s rebuke, the Seventh Fleet updated its statement, calling the Chinese statement “false.”

"The PLA’s statement is the latest in a long string of PRC actions to misrepresent lawful US maritime operations and assert its excessive and illegitimate maritime claims at the expense of its Southeast Asian neighbours in the South China Sea," the Seventh Fleet said.

Since the Obama administration, the US has inserted itself into the maritime dispute between China and its Southeast Asian neighbours. In 2015, the US started sending warships near Chinese-claimed islands on a regular basis, what the Pentagon calls Freedom of Navigation Operations (FONOPs).

Ancient China ... broken heart

 

https://www.mvorganizing.org/what-did-the-peasants-do-in-china/

 

In lieu of a standard or even a basic education, peasants were demanded to work. They most commonly worked on farms planting, sowing and harvesting crops. Of these crops, a percentage of them were given to the government as a tax, even if the crops didn’t grow or had died. 

 

 

https://ancientchina-peasants.weebly.com/the-life-of-a-peasant.html

 

The typical life of a peasant was not what you would normally imagine. It entailed many things not typically experienced in today’s modern society for the majority of people. This included farming land for their communities benefit, having to work for the government for at least 1 month per year, peasant women marrying men who they necessarily didn’t like but didn’t have a choice in the matter, not being able to go to school unless your family was wealthy and was only allowed if you were male. angel

World Bank Abandons 'Doing Business' Report After Probe Finds IMF Boss Cheated China's Ranking Higherteaser image

...is there any institution left that is not corrupt? broken heart

THU SEP 16, AT 5:24 PM

 

Specifically, Bloomberg reports that International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva was cited by the World Bank in the probe....

“The changes to China’s data in Doing Business 2018 appear to be the product of two distinct types of pressure applied by bank leadership on the Doing Business team,” the World Bank said in a report Thursday.

 

The bank cited “pressure applied by CEO Georgieva and her advisor, Mr. Djankov, to make specific changes to China’s data points in an effort to increase its ranking at precisely the same time the country was expected to play a key role in the bank’s capital increase campaign.”

Georgieva served as chief executive officer of the World Bank prior to moving to head the IMF.

 

  Specifically @Stiggs would know that Georgieva and Djankov are both Bulgarian last names/citizens ...

China Panics: Beijing Orders Energy Firms To "Secure Supplies At All Costs"; Oil Soarsteaser image

"Blackouts won’t be tolerated"

...   "That's an order!" ... big man said... 

THU SEP 30, AT 5:23 PM

 

Now that the global energy crisis has slammed China's economy, leading to the first contractionary PMI since March 2020 as a result of widespread shutdowns of factory and manufacturing, not to mention hundreds of millions of Chinese residents suffering from periodic blackouts, Bloomberg reports that China’s central government officials "ordered the country’s top state-owned energy companies to secure supplies for this winter at all costs."

 

Translation: Beijing is no longer willing to risk social anger and going forward China will be subsidizing coil and nat gas, which will lead to even higher prices, which will lead to even higher prices for other "substitute" commodities such as oil, which is why oil surged on the news.

i was a peasant 14 years ago when i 1st went to China. I got over 900 points by 2014. I lost my password when I had to.buy a new cellphone thereby becoming a peasant again. I had to fly back to Canada because of covid 02/20. I switch my phone again so became a peasant again as you can see. I don't mind being a peasant. Maybe thats because peasants are rich and well educated farmers in Canada.

Vlad the Impaler ... in the news ..

Putin suggested to a US journalist she was too 'beautiful' to understand a point he made about Russian gas supply

 

  

 putin hadley gamble

 

Fri, October 15, 2021, 1:01 PM

 

CNBC journalist Hadley Gamble was asking Putin about Russia's standoff with Europe over gas supplies.

Gamble was interviewing Putin during the Russian Energy Week in Moscow on Wednesday.

 

Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested to an American journalist that she was too "beautiful" to understand his explanation of Russia's standoff with Europe over gas supplies.

The CNBC journalist Hadley Gamble, who spoke to the president before a live audience at the Russian Energy Week in Moscow, was addressing the recent accusations that Russia was withholding gas supplies to Europe in an effort to drive up prices.

 

Her questions seemed to irritate Putin, who at one point turned to the audience and said in Russian: "Beautiful woman, pretty, I'm telling her one thing. She instantly tells me the opposite as if she didn't hear what I said," The Hill reported.

 surprise
