Just another day in modern America.
Read the wisdom of Xi Jinping thought.
Educate yourself.
You're the one in dire need of education. It's doubtful it would help you though.
Lets see if all the American hating athletes have the balls to stand up to CHina. Thye are quick to piss on their country in the USA and with the EU losers but the rest of the world they are chicken shit.
I hope one does though and the PRC locks him/her up in a shit hole camp with rats and sewage! Imagine the world goinginsane.....I don't. USA/EU media would blame the athlete.
At some point China is going to drop the NBA and their black slaves. If NBA exposition in China had secondary objective to divert the population and and a primary objective to at influencing America, at some point the the CCCP will declare the latter objective complete.
The next generation of NBA stars will not have the same revenue stream/income. Black, white, whatever will not give a damn about the newer generation whether they are the same color or not.
only pay for what you need
Who trusts the CIA conclusions? Only fools. CIA is constitutionally incapable of telling the truth.
