Was this not a given? I remember something about weird Chinese military Supply train routes in the early months of the war

Sure was, but now there is US document publically stating that. The weight someone wants to give it is up to them.

Fair enough. I’m curious how much of this equipment is more shitty outdated weaponry cloned from Russian weapons.

Yes but my moron friend from college is convinced that China isn’t helping Russia at all and that Ukraine is full of Nazis and the west is the real enemy

So no? It’s not a given unless you have a functioning brain

I guess “working frontal lobe” is a pretty high bar these days, you’re right. The 2 people who downvoted you seem to lack them, that’s for sure.

Like once a year we get an article about how the us military is too reliant on Chinese parts in their supply chain lol

Why did you expect China to follow Western sanctions?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

And in other news millions of US arms to Ukraine keep ending up in Africa. But let's talk about China helping Russia even though we already new this was going to happen from the start.

Yeah I have to stay off of here. Maoist lemmygrad tankies give me diarrhea.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I know the implication here is that "maoist lemmygrad tankies" are so gross they give you diarrhea but it really comes off as "I get stress diarrhia reading left wing content online" which isn't very flattering.

That's not my hill to die on, but what exactly about authoritarian ethno states scratching each other's back makes it "left wing"?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This guy is a typical lemmygrad user spouting off bullshit tankie talking points. Don't even bother.

Except I am anarcho-syndicalist and aggressively socially left-wing. But I will never understand anyone that holds China or Russia in anything approaching high regard.
Edit: And, no. My comment didn't come across as that. You obviously just wanted to read it as such.

You can’t have endless war without three really solid participants!
