Why is this idea getting downvoted?

This is a legitimate situation. Why should Huawei continue to financially support ARM? When their legal usage of the ARM IP is now on shaky ground, just because some president can easily revoke their privilege to use it.

I say fck it! Burn down their IP with ARM. Billions of dollars wasted, and go all in with RISC-V. At least this way, they can at least control their own future, and create an alternate and independent China technology IP system.

This is just conjecture. You have no evidence to support this.

And there are bats in Austin, Texas! You’re saying that the bats in Austin are clean, and disease free, while the bats in China, somehow only carry the virus?

> Forced cultural assimilation is still considered genocide.

Interesting point of view there. You sure you want to die on this hill?

Ok, let’s take that a step further.

In the Western countries, the United States, Canada, Australia, and Europe, they all force their immigrants to culturally assimilate. They do this by socially shaming the immigrants to adopt local names, and to not speak their own native language.

This is very prevalent in the white countries, where white people scream out: “Why don’t you speak English, and learn our culture!”

And in grade schools, the immigrants are mocked for being foreign.

And what does the government do about this? Nothing. They turn a blind eye. They let society handle the cultural genocide for them. I’m sorry, to use your phrase: the forced cultural assimilation.

This is their technique. And it allows them to have a plausible deniability to the situation.

Hell, even in the western countries, women are banned from wearing their burqas and facial veils.

And then, speaking of concentration camps, then don’t you agree that the United States had their own concentration camps when they arrested all the Japanese and threw them into the American Concentration Camps? This was only 70 years ago, so it’s not very far back in American history.

And furthermore, the United States and the other western countries, have their own techniques of genociding foreign culture. They do this through Hollywood, by casting Asian males as weirdly foreign, incompetent, and ignorant to the western ways. If this is not cultural genocide, per your own definition, then I don’t know what is.

Huawei should just dump ARM. And go all in with RISC-V.

This is actually an interesting question.

The western countries are accusing China of fake genocide here, such as suppressing the Uyghur culture, their language, their food, their clothing, even their haircuts.

But yet, H&M is a western brand, that sells jeans and T-shirt, which are western style clothes.

So, if the Uyghurs are buying and wearing H&M clothes, instead of traditional Uyghur clothes, then they are in effect genociding themselves.

So therefore, H&M and the West, are in effect, helping to genocide Uyghur culture.

The funny thing also, is that one of the most famous Chinese actresses right now, is Dilraba Dilmurat, of the Uyghur ethnicity. And she is rising in stardom in the Chinese entertainment world.

So if the Chinese are really trying to genocide the Uyghurs, then I highly doubt they’d let a Uyghur girl rise up too far in their entertainment culture.

Can you imagine the Nazis promoting Jews in their films? That is the analogy here.

Something to think about.

How did the Chinese fail to contain Covid, when serological tests showed that the virus was already present in the United States, in Seattle, back in December 2019?

We still don’t know if it was in the United States earlier than this, because the American authorities refuse to investigate it.

And it was already present in Europe, in Italy and Spain, in November 2019. So it was detected in Europe, after the fact, before it was even known in China.

So, given this information, how is this China’s fault, when they themselves discovered and isolated the virus in December 2019?

Can you please use some mental gymnastics here to help us all understand how this is all China’s fault?

What if instead, the virus came in from elsewhere, but China got hit the hardest first, but their disease tracking system was the first to actually detect the virus? Because apparently, the rest of the western countries all failed to detect it.

I have never heard of this Novamin toothpaste before. Nor has any of my dentists ever recommended it.

It looks like the popular brand is Sensodyne.

Why can’t he or anyone, present an alternative question to elicit a conversation about it?

Otherwise, we will have mob rule.

LOL. It looks like you got downvoted for pointing out an inconvenient truth.

You’re changing the story to suit your own narrative. The Civil War in China is not over. And it was never settled.

Before this, the bully was the Taiwan government. Then they lost the mainland, and fled to Taiwan, where they got sheltered by the Americans.

And now, you’re saying that the government on the mainland is now the bully over little Taiwan.

But the fact remains, that the last stage of the Chinese Civil War is not over.
