Lol imagine having an “ally” spread anti-vax disinformation in your population, putting millions of vulnerable and poor people at risk, then thinking “hmm, I think’s he’s a trustworthy fella and we should keep doing as he wishes”

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
The Philippines are Baltics level of cucked. I remember a poll showing they love America more than Americans do.
They name their country after the king who colonized them.
Duterte was getting closer with China. Marcos represents a reversal, or maybe more accurately a return to complete submission to the United States.
Interesting development after China's reaffirmation of "peaceful development". I wonder how long that goal will work if America tries to keep poking the proverbial bear.
US is working hard to cross China's red lines because they realize their window of a military victory is closing. In my opinion, the window has closed a long time ago, but it seems they're still under the delusion that they could win a conflict, and want to goad China into it the same way they goaded Russia in Ukraine.
The proverbial red panda dragon**
The US also waged a secret antivax campaign in the Philippines to vilify China's vaccines, according to this Reuters article

Philippines is still a colony for all intents and purposes.
I’ll be so pissed if WW3 gets kicked off by a guy named bongbong
What if the US just blows themselves up with missiles and dismembered themselves and died. I think that'd be fantastic.
No need for that. Bird flu + raw milk culture war go brrrrr
"please send missile" 
@Awoo@hexbear.net remember this?
Phillipines new Taiwan.
Taiwan was never in danger in the first place. The CPC was saying shit to appease their own nationalists and western media spun it as "China gonna attack anytime now". If you don't trust me look at the effect of China's threats on Taiwan's stock market.
Recently they said they would kill taiwanese independence diehards or whatever and nobody cared. Trade with China continues.
