Say something like, "I dunno dude, I've smuggled a lot of fent across the border and I've never seen any Chinese people there."

Always talk to him like a baby. Try to be really playful, like you would with a baby. Every time you see him, show tremendous enthusiasm because ‘your buddy’ is here.

When he blurts out racist stuff just say ‘you need mommy now?’ And bring out a baby bottle that you keep refrigerated with milk in it, just for him.

When you turn to your girlfriend use your most adult voice. ‘Can we get him home?’ You then look at him with a smile, as if you never said anything at all.

Edit: it’s really important you never speak to him without the affect of a baby.

Brace i'm stoked to see you on hexbear

When he threatens you, tell him that it's your birthday, and he wouldn't want to hurt a little birthday boy, would he?

Tell him he's confused China with the CIA because of their shared letters. Explain to him about the CIA smuggling cocaine into the US and inventing crack. First explain this to him earnestly and then increasingly patronizingly each time you meet him and he gets started.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 23 points 1 week ago

oh shit it was right there the whole time ChInA is rogue CIA. it also explains the sinno-soviet split. in this essay i will

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

CHINA - CIA = HI

"Hi" or "High" Like what you get when you take fent. COINCIDENCE?!

[–] NotALeatherMuppet@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Might want to double check your math

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

Oh, checking math, how convenient, just like how China checks the math when they sell fentanyl!

[–] Pentacat@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

There’s a video by Guerilla News Network (from like 20 years ago) called Crack the CIA. Maybe OP could find this video online and do a little a Clockwork Orange on the guy.

Is it possible that you could just beat him with a shovel or something? Guy sounds like a jackass

The US is sending US americans to Tajikistan to have them cross the border and sell drugs an "pay uyghur kids to shoot each other"

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago

This but probably real

"And I saw one of the Chinese and the Chinese looked at me"

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Yeah, chuds have been saying China does everything bad in the world for years now. It's an obsession and there's a whole cottage industry online about it, all either funded by the state department or disinformation flowed downstream from the state department.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The most frustrating part is how libs who would insist they aren't racist, and even baby leftist types, always fall for this obvious right wing racist grift. I've had to debunk so many videos my friends have sent me, and every time, it's always turned out that the person behind it is a white supremacist, they barely hide it, but as long as they aren't sieg heiling on camera, libs assume that they can't be racist, they are just telling the "shocking truth" about China.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Have you seen what liberal Lemmy is saying?

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't see your point? Them saying racist bullshit about China that originated from the mouth of a white supremacist doesn't disprove my point. Just because they would rather take the word of a white supremacist over reality doesn't change anything.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 2 points 1 week ago

I misread. Apologies.

[–] boiledfrog@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago

Convince him that it aren't Chinese, but Taiwanese

[–] iie@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago

ask him if he is aware that the sun rises in the west and there are eight days in a week

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago

Tell them that grok said that wasn't true

[–] macabrett2@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

Ridiculous. China is sending Chinese people over to stand in line and make your checkout lines longer. It's anti-capitalist propaganda, making you think you have long bread lines like a communist country. They're so good at it, because they're so used to their long lines under communism /s

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

tell him that Taylor Sheridan's imagination is fueled entirely by the repeated huffing of diesel fumes from age 8-18.

the Season 2 plot arc of Lioness was not, in fact, a documentary but the hallucination of a deranged mind gifted a massive Hollywood studio platform to broadcast his feverishly pro-troop, pro-rich scribblings and portray himself as a strong, chest-shaving badass who only says and does manly things and gets laid all the time.

I bet if you watch the Rogan interview with that guy, it'll be eerily similar to your gf's bro's beliefs.

[–] TheBroodian@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago

What a fucking Rube Goldberg machine of nonsense

[–] Pentacat@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

What benefits does China get from this transaction?

[–] Stizzah@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 1 week ago

They clearly do it for the lulz. Pure genius.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Theoretically, destabilizing America. I don't think that's a very good angle of attack even though obviously a more zoomed-out view would show that the strategy is bad because it would destroy China's reputation completely, because most Americans don't understand how China and most of America's adversaries have made substantial efforts to cultivate international respect and had some level of success (except the black sheep DPRK, perhaps)

[–] Pentacat@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

A lot of Americans don’t seem to grasp how good a job America is doing destabilizing itself.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

When you've been told that USA #1 your entire life and you've been told the rest of the world is jealous of your freedom, and when you look around, you see a crumbling, collapsing dystopia, it isn't too hard to connect that with the "jealous foreigners" part.

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago

This is mostly the plot to the movie "Born in east LA" with the rascism turned up slightly.

Tell him it's true. China has our border completely compromised and there is nothing we can do to stop it. If he wants to live he needs to become a capo for the Chinese. Tell him you love him and you want him to stay safe from the Chinese assassin's so he needs to download duo lingo now to prepare for their take over

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago

sounds like a really smart guy

probably still smarter than 50% of americans
