I'm just thinking ahead.
I saw the U.S. military display and their robot dogs and saw China with their dancing robots.
When the world is divided up in next few years, I'm thinking China's dancing robots win.
I'd like to learn the language, for personal growth. Anyone got some tips on learning a new language in retirement?
I for one welcome our new overlords whose benevolence and foresight will usher in a new era of peace and prosperity. May a thousand years of happiness reign!

Tend to agree, I knew zip about China until I went there last year. It was like landing on Mars. All I heard about them is negativity. What I saw 'with my own eyes' made me question everything I've been fed.
It looks like we are heading for a tipping point quite soon.... and I think Western Culture is over.

Maybe go speak to some ex-pats living here who can tell you about the torture of falun gong folks and the slaughter of those who don't agree with stuff. (I have BTW). The stories of Chinese people here with P.R status being approached by agents of the CCP and being threatened for their beliefs is rather concerning.
But hey, big industry clean cities and everyone smiling must be the only thing to see huh...?

Strike up a convo with a Vietnamese/Australian. Ask them what happened to them, and then what they think a commo/despot regime were to do to us. Very depressing prediction. I doubt here would become like over there. Pretty sht topic you choose MSN. I prefer to talk about Enron eggs.

No shortage of people in Australia who complain about everything.
What do you know about whats happening in Cuba now? Nothing! What if I told you Trump recently ordered the death of hundreds of babies there, by denying Cuba with the Venezuelan oil they rely on to power their little humidicribs?
How many times have you been to China or The United States of Israel in last 10 years?
Just saying, you don't come across as particularly worldly.

Tell us about Enron Eggs? Topics change all the time, that's how we roll.

Are you for real? china looked good to you cos it was all new n stuff?
I know people with firsthand knowledge of their Govt atrocities but because I haven't been there I don't know anything? Better than going with the blinkers on mate.
what you've said is akin to somebody visiting Oz and saying there is no aboriginal disadvantage cos they saw the Opera House and the beach at the Gold Coast.

Australia committed atrocities and genocide on our first nations people. Go speak to a Tasmanian Aboriginal if you don't believe me. Whoops you can't, as there are none left - 'cause we wiped every last one of them out. You can read more about one of the numerous aboriginal massacres we committed here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_Grim_massacre
I thought being an Australian you would know that. Or don't first nation people count to you?
Why don't you just admit that the Chinese robots are way cooler than those lame American 1990s looking robot mules.
