after a think, i do believe i have it: someone will sneeze kind of hard, they'll lock down all the athletes; beat a few more welsh corgis to death with a crowbar (google it [or, actually, don't]) because dogs can get covid too. then the athletes will begin to complain because they're not used to living with this shit and a few will disappear
that's worst case. best case, though, it's the most boring winter olympics in years. no audience, athletes uncomfortable, probably lots of interludes about how grand china is, everyone switched to netflix anyways who watches that crap

i half feel major nations have staunchly resisted a boycott because they're quietly presuming it won't reflect well, anywhere from being slightly boring to openly horrid. this makes sense until you consider all the people who will presumably have their entire biometric identity in a database before they leave after a lot of horseshit

love the food, women, friends, travel, and all round kindness of the chinese people.
hate the repressiveness, stupidity and corruption of a truly communist government.
also it's dumb to say communism was never tried before. it was tried in russia and china to horrifying effect.
the shitness of communism is violently overthrowing the monarchy and replacing it with government by plebs in a short space of time. it causes chaos for the people and rulers alike and is SHIT.
also china is a dictatorship with no independent courts, no due process, rampant corruption (you have to buy the police an iphone to grease the wheels).... blah blah
still love china though despite all the problems. there's good in china's heart. calligraphy, generosity, friendliness, etc

then could the good in their heart please stop trying to take over taiwan. for obvious physical strategic regions, ok, but it's also for their semiconducter fabs. yes, china builds a lot of shit. but the chip shortage, all that, china doesn't have terribly much for fabs. it's in taiwan. meanwhile, part of what's caused the chip shortage is chinese companies hoarding components. their place in the supply chain, they're well positioned to do so

like, perhaps they have deftly brainwashed their own citizens, but i could pick any number of countries whose stereotypical citizens would be... less amenable

The whole trip they complained about not being at a McDonalds and repeatedly shouted for the motherfucker to pull over so they could get some fucking McDonalds nigger. Interspersed with the McDonalds requests were shouted boasts about how often they masturbated and fucked bitches nigger and got paid like a motherfucker fifty grand like a motherfucker. They continued complaining that the trip was taking too long and insisted they be fed immediately all the way to the airport, where their minder presumably fed them.
