China Thread

[LouderVol]

Here’s the actual scene.

Just shake my head over this lol. Like what was the point of adding that? What were the Barbie folks looking to achieve? I don’t get it.

wow they are looking to be offended. I mean first off you have to get past Margot Robbie, what straight man gets that far. Then you have to look at the blob of "Asia", and then you see a trail of dashes and assume that's somehow being preferential to China. Despite China, nor any of the asian islands being on the map...

I mean maybe Japan should be pissed because they aren't on there at all.

It’s a crayon blob map. The Great Wall is twice the size of England (which has a crown on it).

It’s not a serious map. Which makes the inclusion of the nine dash all that more puzzling.

There is absolutely no question about what that dashed line is. It’s the nine dash. Why is it there.

I assume you know the real nine dash, what it means, and how it is preferential to China?

yeah I know what it is. Which is why I find it funny that calling those lines the 9 dash line. Its not remotely in the right location, way too far north, doesn't get down to where Vietnam "should be". And its right pattern, the 9 dash line forms a loop around area China claims, this is just some winding dashed lines that wouldn't be able to be used to claim territory.

There are tons of random marks on that map. I really doubt Barbie put any thought into most of them. I guess I was expecting a lot more for people to care about it.

 

[AM64]

My guess is there is a lot more of these "labs" around the country

Makes you wonder if they are run by Chinese let into the country with passports and visas or the ones illegally crossing the border from Mexico. In just a few more years China can have legitimate creepers - the Chinese anchor babies dropped it at the Chinese tourist birth mills during the obama years.

So you’re of the opinion that it is not a representation of the nine dash line? It’s just a random dashed line?

As to the argument it’s not the right shape… that seems incredibly silly. Asia isn’t the right shape, Japan is missing, and England is wearing a crown.

So you’re saying Vietnam and other SEA Nations shouldn’t be mad about this. Why do you get to decide what is important to them?

 

[AM64]

Well to be clear, I’m not offended. American audiences are not offended, either.

It’s Vietnam, and other SE Asia countries that are rustled.

Most people wouldn’t be able to tell you what the nine dash line is, or point it out on a map.

The Barbie nine dash is incredibly innocuous (and only has 8 dashes lol), but it’s there, and the SEA nations definitely saw it and took offense.

The whole world should be offended over the dash 9 lunacy. It is essentially piracy on a grand scale. China has always been an arrogant nation. For example, long before Okinawa was invaded and originally annexed by Japan, Okinawa was an independent country. When Okinawa began trading with China, the deal was that China sent "advisors", teachers , etc to Okinawa. When an Okinawan monarch died, the successor had to be approved by the Chinese emperor. China apparently played this game as far as it could reach; that may have been the original thought behind the whole of the S China Sea belonging to China - absurd as the concept is. The Japanese used Okinawa as something like a clearing house to trade with China. Apparently to the Chinese, there is CHINA and then there is the rest of the world that should bow down to China.

where did I say I get to decide? I was simply offering an opinion. like I said, I simply wanted to know what was actually being discussed.

I actually saw the movie, and definitely didn't remember anything being said about it. that map was only mentioned so they could go to the "State" of Las Angeles in the "country" of California as part of the trip from magical Barbieland to the real world. I asked because I thought I have might have missed something or it was a marketing ploy. It was probably on screen for less than 5 seconds, and they only point to the US.

People looking to take that scene seriously really need to evaluate their priorities. I would find it much more offensive to be deleted all together than to read into random dashes with no real relation to anything.

and incase anyone asks I went with my GF because I rain checked on a previous date.

So you’re still mocking the SE Asian nations and peoples for being upset about this. Got it.

They are not “random dashes”. They are plain as day to anyone that understands the situation (which apparently does not include you here).

The only question is “why” they felt compelled to include what is 100% an overwhelmingly obvious representation of the CCP nine dash line in a frickin Barbie movie.

lol, I created this thread. I knew China was threat, and their history of claims, long before anyone else was concerned about it here.

How is it 100% overwhelming obvious representation if it isn't any where close to the 9 dash line? you even noted it wasn't the right count. I already pointed out it was in the wrong place and the wrong configuration. so clearly it isn't anywhere close to 100% if it can't get the basics correct.

If it was 100% obvious people who didn't know what it was would be able to tell what it is. I guarantee you they didn't, and no one came out of the movie talking about that line.

and like I said the line, or really the map, were ever even discussed in the movie. this is just another case of snowflakes looking for something to get upset over. I mean how first world is your problem when you have to freeze frame a single still image from a fictional movie of a crayon map? yeah if SE Asia is upset by that "representation" I will mock them.

do you want to discuss how the Barbie movie is clearly pushing the Nazi agenda of removing Israel? They represent some of the ME, but clearly Israel isn't there. take some real time and break down this clearly pivotal fictional map, and find ALL of the ways to be offended, clearly you have nothing better to do. maybe you get someone in Hanoi to join you in your efforts.

Well at least you finally got around to busting out your “snowflake” tag.

Eff those SE Asian nations and their interest in their own sovereignty. Louder says they shouldn’t be upset. Bunch a damn snowflakes.

You’re still missing the forest for the trees. It’s a stupid crayon blob map, you dolt. Japan is missing. England has a crown. Israel is missing.

And yet they still felt the need to add the CCP nine dash line.

The fact that you can’t see that it is clearly the nine dash speaks volumes.

show that map to anyone and ask them what they think those lines are. You would have to go pretty far to find anyone who would look at that and say its the Nine Dash Line without you prompting them. They added dozens of little things all over that map that don't match reality. you going to explain to me all the CCP propaganda in all those other items?

you are welcome to freak out about it, but I am still going to think you are dumb for doing it. meanwhile I will be over researching ACTUAL issues regarding China instead of relying on make believe movies.

Sigh…

Again, not me. Vietnam, Phillipines, etc. That is who is upset about this.
I plan on seeing the movie, actually.

You still can’t see the forest for the trees on this one. Take a lap.

It’s coming here.

Assuming we can keep the feds from withdrawing from our banking accounts, I have a feeling most of us deplorables would consider that a wall of fame rather than shame. I'm thinking the left has overplayed their hand, and the rest of us have quit falling for their BS. They can call us what they want, and it just doesn't matter anymore.

Read that today on The Drive. Now the question is can we keep China out of the infrastructure to keep it all working. Missile systems don't work very well without power and when the electronics are compromised.
