Operation Honey Pot: Paste this emoji 🍯 in your comment below. Socialist streamer Hasan Piker finds out the hard way that life in China isn't so great...
While the US and Canada work to protect
the Philippines from China, Australia is
helping China build missiles and nuclear
weapons, a shocking bridge collapse, and
Assan [ __ ] gets an unexpected surprise
on his visit to China. And more on this
week's China news headlines.
Welcome to Chinaensored. I'm Chris
Chapel. Socialist streamer Hassan [ __ ]
has been getting a lot of attention for
his shocking behavior lately. Yes, I did
go there.
So did he. But now it seems like the
tables have turned and he's the one
getting bullied by Chinese police. [ __ ]
was live streaming in Tianaan Square
praising China and criticizing the US
when Chinese security officials saw him
hold up a chairman Mao meme on his
phone. They immediately pulled his
entire crew aside and asked to go
through their phones looking for Xi
Jinping Winnie the Pooh memes, I'm sure.
Of course, [ __ ] is a supporter of the
CCP, and it would seem that hasn't
changed because afterwards he attended a
flag raising ceremony in front of the
Tienman Square Mau portrait complete
with kit. And later he said this
>> cuz like by and large especially like
the government is aware of like how they
are perceived or or how much like you
know anti-Chinese probably exists out
there. We're white. So as as foreigners
in China at this like national event
rather than an international one, um he
thought he saw something on the phone
like he thought we were like making a
mockery. You know what I mean?
>> Yep. The security saw their race and
were worried that they might make China
look bad. Total justification to stop
them and go through their phones. Best
country in the world right there. And
speaking of things China is totally best
at, China has had yet another
embarrassing engineering failure. This
time with the 758 m long Hongchi Bridge,
which collapsed mere months after
opening, which I guess is better than
weeks after opening. progress.
Luckily, police had already closed the
bridge after cracks were noticed on the
surface, so no one was hurt besides, you
know, the CCP's pride. Oh, just slap
some LED lights on and I'm sure it'll be
fine. Some Nessens are saying that this
happened because the ground shifted and
had nothing to do with the bridg's
engineering. Meanwhile, people with
actual knowledge about architecture are
saying that it collapsed because there
were not enough anchoring pylons in the
mountains. The pylons did not go deep
enough and they weren't strong enough.
So to all those CCP shills on social
media who claim that Chinese
architecture is actually superior to the
west. Well, I got a bridge to sell you.
Not long after that, this under
construction tunnel in Sichuan flooded,
washing away an excavator. No word on
the workers. Hey, you know America's
good ally, Australia? They're supplying
China with a critical mineral vital for
hypersonic missiles and its nuclear
program. They're criminals, I tell you.
The mineral is zirconium. And not only
are two Australian zirconium mines
majority owned by Chinese companies, but
those mines both export 100% of their
product to China. And Australian
regulators apparently saw no problem
with this. Here's a real picture of a
regulator that saw no problem with it.
What? It's Mr. Magcoo. Now, you kids
have no culture. Meanwhile, last month,
the Australian prime minister signed a
$3 billion critical minerals deal with
the US to reduce reliance on China. So,
while the Australian government is
making mineral deals with the US, the
Australian private sector is selling key
minerals to Chinese companies with close
ties to the CCP.
Obviously, one answer would be tighter
regulations, but the defense minister
down under doesn't think tighter
controls are needed. His reasoning is
that other countries can just replace
Australian exports, so nothing really
stopped the CCP, which is like saying
those bank robbers would have found a
third gunman anyway, so it may well have
been me. But it gets even worse. Four
Corners, an Australian news program,
obtained data showing that China is
re-exporting some of this zirconium to
Russia, helping to fuel Vladimir Putin's
war machine, which has to make Australia
feel pretty stupid. They could have just
sold it to Russia directly. Think of all
the profits they're losing. Since the
Ukraine war began, Chinese zirconium
exports to Russia have surged 300% and
some of that is coming from the company
that owns one of Australia's zirconia
mines. So, Australia is sanctioning
Russia, but also indirectly helping
them. But Australia isn't the only US
ally helping China because according to
US intelligence from the Biden era,
China upgraded its PL-15 and PL17
missiles using technology from the
United Arab Emirates. Now, once again,
this is not so much about the UAE
government betraying the US as it is
about the private sector. It was the AI
flagship company G42 that gave the
technology to Chinese telecoms giant
Huawei, presumably for an enormous
amount of something in return. But since
there is no such thing as the private
sector in China, the technology ended up
in PLA missiles. No surprise there. And
those missiles ended up being used by
Pakistan in the clashes with India this
past spring. With friends like these,
who needs enemies trying to murder you
with weapons from your friends?
US officials have debated whether or not
the UAE government knew about the extent
of this help or was involved and gave a
sharp warning to the UAE after learning
about G42's entanglement with Huawei,
which is just a step up from a strongly
worded letter, which I guess can also be
sharp if someone got a paper cut from
it. But on top of that, the UAE has also
reportedly purchased Chinese drones for
the Rapid Support Forces or RSF, its
controversial proxy in the ongoing Sudin
civil war. I swear all problems in the
world tie back to the CCP.
US Secretary of War Pete Hegsth is
seeking a reboot of US China military
hotlines. Hegs met with his Chinese
counterpart, Admiral Dong Jun, and
claims that both sides want to increase
communication to avoid misunderstandings
or escalation. At this point, I feel
like talks with China have been
unsuccessfully attempted more than
communism. But hey, maybe he'll finally
be the one to do it right. Hegsth also
stressed that the two sides agreed that
peace, stability, and good relations are
the best path for their two strong and
great countries and concluded by saying,
"God bless both China and the USA,"
which considering they're godless
atheists, is going to be pretty hard for
the man upstairs to do. Also, he's
probably not the biggest fan of that
whole genocide thing. But don't think
that means Heg Seth is going soft
because in the meeting with Dong, Hegth
brought up concerns about the South
China Sea. And during the same trip, he
unveiled a Philippine task force to
deter Chinese coercion. The task force
will allow the US and the Philippines to
improve coordination and strengthen
cooperation on humanitarian responses to
natural disasters, which considering the
devastating typhoon that just hit, is
more necessary than ever. But it's not
just the US. Canada and the Philippines
also signed a defense pact to deter
Beijing in the South China Sea. Yeah,
watch out China or else Canada will get
you. Oh, we're screwed.
Talks are underway for similar
Philippine agreements with India,
Singapore, France, Germany, and the UK.
Man, it's weird but nice covering talks
on this channel that are actually
productive. And it looks like President
Trump is defending bringing in Chinese
exchange students to American campuses.
Take a listen.
>> You've said as many as 600,000 Chinese
students could come to the United
States. Why, sir, is that a pro MAGA
position when so many American kids want
to go to school and there are places not
for them and these universities are
getting rich off Chinese money?
>> Sure. Uh never said about China, but I
we do have a lot of people coming in
from China. We always have uh China and
other countries. We also have a massive
system of colleges and universities. And
if we were to cut that in half, which
perhaps makes some people happy, you
would have half the colleges in the
United States go out of business.
>> It's a lot.
>> Ah, the age-old response for justifying
working with China, but that money
though. Trump went on to suggest that
historically black colleges and
universities could go bankrupt as a
result and suggested that other
countries might also have students
spying on the US. And then he laid into
the French. Okay, everybody loves to
make fun of the French. Fair enough. And
we're overdue to start calling them
freedom fries again. But to be fair to
Trump, he isn't suggesting that 600,000
new Chinese students should come to the
US. He's just continuing visas for the
ones who are already here. But with the
risk of espionage combined with the risk
of Tik Tok that Trump continues to
champion, I do wonder what agreements he
and she came to at their recent meeting.
Last week, Nvidia CEO Jensen Hang, who's
on his 900th leather jacket and thinking
maybe this will be the one that makes me
look cool, made another controversial
and shocking statement. He said he
thinks China isn't lagging behind the US
when it comes to artificial intelligence
and that the Chinese Communist Party
will win the AI race. Well, now he's
softening his stance. Hang claims that
he only meant that the US and other
Western countries were falling victim to
cynicism and heavy regulations. While
China is catching up due to energy
subsidies that help lower costs for
local developers. aka China sees the
damage AI does to the environment and
thinks we can damage it even faster. He
also says it's vital that the US win the
AI race and has suggested that it needs
to keep developers reliant on Nvidia's
worldclass chips in order to win which
of course would mean ending restrictions
that prevent China from buying advanced
Nvidia chips. Surely Wong is saying that
out of his concern for the US and not
personal profit. Perished the thought.
If you think that, I've got a bridge to
sell you. Once again, I'm Chris Chapel.
See you next time.
