    if they “rescued 1000 cats” from being sold as pork meat, that means at least 1,000,000 cats are sold as pork every day

    What kind of logic is that? Why stop at a million, why not a billion.

      this is China… maybe you don’t understand how big China is, and how many people live there… how many servings of “pork” fried rice get served every day… or how their law enforcement works… only the crooks who don’t pay the cops enough get caught…

        You’re telling a Chinese guy he doesn’t understand China. Nice mansplaining (racesplaining?).

        I’m pointing out the ridiculousness of drawing assumptions and calculating frequency of events from a single incident. Yes, I’m sure it happens. How frequently it happens is harder to say. It’s as if somebody sneezed and you declared an epidemic is happening in your town. One data point is an anecdote, not data.

          oh you’re Chinese, that explains it… hey do you know the Chinese Military’s primary capability in war? it’s the ability to send millions of men to die, and not care… the Russians use the same strategy, but they don’t have quite as many bodies to pile up…

            Hello racist. Nice of you to introduce yourself. Now I can make note of you, and next time I see you, I’ll remember to ignore you

                    Hmm yes yes. I should definitely label you as sexist as well. Maybe also dipshit. Yes yes that one is good. 😁

            Have we moved from millions of cats to millions of cannon fodder, now? That aside, I’m not sure what point you’re trying to get at.

                Chinese, but not a China citizen. Fuck the CCP. Hopefully someday China’ll have actual civil rights.

            it’s the ability to send millions of men to die

            Isn’t that the whole point of war? See which side ran out of men/women faster.

              that’s exactly how the Chinese see it, yeah… in the West we study von Clausewitz, who said that military power is an extension of politics… von Clausewitz was part of a time in the West called The Enlightenment… the Chinese have yet to participate in it… they’re still a few hundred years behind mentally…
