@SpaceX Looks like progress is not bad.

Three years since the first flight of Starship, the next generation is here. New ship. New booster. New engines. New pad and new test site. SpaceX engineers are working to solve one of the most difficult engineering challenges in history: developing a fully, rapidly reusable rocket

@lukedepulford You look like a weak loser.

Is it true that "Taiwan has been a part of China since ancient times", as Beijing often claims? No, not at all. Here are some inconvenient facts which most people don't know. I invite the swarm of CCP trolls to try to unpick them. ✅ FACT: Before 1624, Taiwan was inhabited by indigenous Malay-Austronesian populations with no official Chinese administrative presence. ✅ FACT: The Dutch established formal administrative control over Taiwan in 1624, which was recognised by Ming Dynasty representatives as being "beyond [Chinese] territory." The Dutch found no evidence of Chinese administrative control. ✅ FACT: In 1662, the Ming loyalist Koxinga expelled the Dutch after himself being expelled from the mainland. He founded an independent kingdom, seeking to reestablish Ming rule. But the Ming Dynasty itself had already collapsed. This was not rule by "China". ✅ FACT: From 1683 to 1887, Taiwan was managed as a province of Fujien; but Emperor Kangxi considered Taiwan beyond his domain. Indeed, he said as much: ‘Taiwan is outside our empire and of no great consequence.’ There were popular revolts throughout this period. ✅ FACT: Taiwan was formally administered as a province of China for eight years, from 1887 until it was ceded to Japan in 1895. This is the only such period. Shorter than the Dutch. ✅ FACT: Following the 1895 Treaty of Shimonoseki, the Qing Empire ceded Taiwan to Japan "in perpetuity". ✅ FACT: Local leaders briefly declared an independent Formosa Republic in 1895 to resist Japanese rule, but the Japanese shut this down within five months. ✅ FACT: Between 1926 and 1942, both the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Kuomintang (KMT) supported independence for Taiwan, viewing it similarly to Korea (as an essential part of an anti-Japanese military strategy). ✅ FACT: The CCP changed its mind. After WW2, the party coalesced around an effort to reclaim "lost territories". In 1943 Cairo and 1945 Potsdam declarations were issued which, while not formal treaties, maintained that "all the territories Japan has stolen from the Chinese, such as Manchuria, Formosa (Taiwan), and the Pescadores, shall be restored to the Republic of China". The 1951 San Francisco Peace Treaty left Taiwan’s legal status "undetermined." ✅ FACT: The People's Republic of China (established 1949) has never, in any capacity, exercised control over Taiwan. As to the territorial claim of what constitutes "China", worthy of note is the highly variable claims to territory (not to mention autonomy and governance structures) over even the past 150 years. See below.

中国兵は、中国人の赤ん坊を囮にしてして日本兵を誘い殺すこともよくやった。 なぜなら、日本兵は見捨てられた赤ん坊を見つけると、必ず救助しようとするからだ。

@Cannot_Kaba "倭倭頭" ?

おいおい、勘弁してくれよ！ 馬鹿の中国人は、隋・唐の皇室が「漢民族じゃない」と言う一般常識すら持たねえのかよ？ こいつら、国内の歴史教科書で何を学んでんだ？ 紅衛兵と同じく「毛沢東語録」の暗誦しか教えられてないのか？ 隋の皇室の正式な姓は「普六茹」と言う 唐の皇室の正式な姓は「大野」

昨夜､娘から衝撃的な発言があり急遽家族会議をしました…。 娘曰く「日本人に見られるのが恥ずかしい…」と…。 なぜなのか問いましたら「歴史の授業で南京大虐殺を知った」と。 娘はインターナショナルスクールですので､私は「それは日本人の先生から教わったの？」と訊きました。 すると､「IGCSEのカリキュラムの中でイギリス人の先生から教わった」と…。 ※IGCSE（Cambridge IGCSE）とは、14〜16歳（日本の中学〜高校1年）を対象とした世界的に認められた中等教育修了資格です。 イギリスが中心で､この後にIBやAPなどに進みます。 家内が「そんなこと､していないのよ！」と言いますと､「ママやパパの頃は事実が分からなかったのよ」と… 私から､「1985年に南京大虐殺記念館が中国でオープンするまでは､南京事件って言って中国も騒いでいなかったんだよ」と言っても「それは日本の視点で､世界からは違うよ」と…。 衝撃を受けました私は､添付の記事（日本のメディアではなくNYタイムズ）を見せて､冷静に虐殺する合理的なメリットがないことや､中国のプロパガンダの特性などを話しました。 蒋介石の行動や､南京での日本軍と現地の方のスナップ写真なども見せました。 娘はまだ半信半疑のようです。 私が心配しているのは､上記の内容を海外の教育プログラムに入っていること…。何とかできないか模索中です。

To the Hangeul supporters, it is an act of confidence. To opponents, a passing trend. Gwanghwamun Gate stands waiting. koreaherald.com/article/107076…

@UNWatch The concentration camps in Gaza are rather nice, aren’t they?

CHINA TELLS U.N.: “The belief and religious sentiments of everyone, including Muslims, should be respected.” FORGOT TO MENTION: China has forcibly detained more than a million Uyghur Muslims in so-called “re-education camps.”

@ABSCBNNews They should get Daddy America to send some oil, otherwise the Philippines will look like a colonial watchdog that’s run out of dog food. LMFAO

If the Philippines seriously studies historical diplomatic events, we will all learn that it is dangerous to trust China.

@53gaDr3amca5t Since when did the fake Unit 731 story include Koreans?? 🤣🤣🤣

they was doing science experiments on yo granddad

@lanedeankendall This MF made me laugh.

First of all, China's rise, to the extent it has risen, was completely facilitated by the international order which was created by the United States post-WW2. Secondly, if one were to actually "learn from China" you would learn to: - Militarize the South China Sea - Steal territory from your neighbors using completely fabricated historical nonsense - Salami slice your near abroad - Subsidize, overproduce, and export en-masse to trading partners to kill their domestic industries - Put other partner countries under crippling debt to build shitty infrastructure projects - Steal billions upon billions worth of intellectual property - Suppress, crush, and imprison any domestic dissent - Run endless cyber and information campaigns against your ideological foes - And complain about the West all while using Western systems to enrich yourself. Among other things.

@BeijingDai Marcos leading them to their own destruction is a good option. No need for external artillery or bloodshed—just get them to sleep at petrol stations for the sake of their motorbikes.

If it weren’t for this news, I would have almost forgotten about our Marcos Jr. in the Philippines. Not only has the Philippines been forced to make concessions to China due to an energy crisis, but the current international situation is also vastly different from the time of the island disputes between China and the Philippines in 2024. The world today is more focused on absolute power and holds so-called international law in greater contempt. If Israel and Iran today saw that China only used water cannons against Philippine vessels, they would be laughing so hard their stomachs hurt. I believe Filipinos have also picked up on this shift in the international atmosphere.

@BeijingDai The Fire Rises – No Joke BANGER

For the United States, the Japanese prime minister spares no effort in groveling; for China, a member of the Japan Self-Defense Forces scaled the walls of the Chinese embassy with intent to kill people in the name of "god". Clearly, the fundamental reason for the difference in how Japanese society perceives China versus the United States is that China has not dropped atomic bombs on Japan. That's why I've been saying that the only way to solve the problem between China and Japan is through the Third Sino Japanese War.
