The U.S. House of Representatives has just passed yet another pain-in-the-ass bill to poke the Dragon’s ass entitled “Uyghur Human Rights Policy Bill 2019”, that would impose sanctions on Chinese officials over human rights abuses against Muslim minorities.
TL;DR – Basically to provoke Beijing to retaliate just as trade deal negotiations between the two sides appear to be on the verge of collapse.
China Vows Response After US House Votes To Sanction Chinese Officials Over Uighur Abuse
You may read the reaction from China’s Foreign Ministry in full here
Realizing the trade deal is dead, President Trump immediately announced the US has no intention of setting a deadline to finalize the the deal with China.
As usual, Trump’s wanking argument is that it is he, rather than China, who is in control of the trade deal. However, his rhetoric masturbation style did not appear to convince the stock market, translating into a 280-point plummet in the Dow Jones Industrial Index.
Trump has found that “being tough on China plays well,” as his support base is mostly made up of hillbillies with below average IQ/EQ. And his pea-sized brain likely also believes he can beat Lord Dragon into submission by exerting substantial pressure.
Let’s take a citizen view on the subject matter. Let’s start with China’s Global Times twitter troll Hu Xijin who has been quite vocal of late.
Overnight, Hu issued his latest not so veiled threat saying that “China is considering to impose visa restrictions on US officials and lawmakers who’ve had odious performance on Xinjiang issue; it might also ban all US diplomatic passport holders from entering Xinjiang.”
Hu also retweeted a post from Global Times Business, which warned that China would release an “unreliable entity list” a.k.a Blacklist soon, which may include such names as Apple and Micron.
And now, with Xi Jinping having already lost serious credibility after he failed to forcefully respond to Trump’s signing of the Hong Kong bill, all eyes will be on China, and whether it will indeed trigger visa restrictions and travel ban for US officials to the Xinjiang province and, more importantly, if Beijing will finally publish its “unreliable entity”, aka black list, which it has been threatening to do since May.
Well, now that the House has passed the Uighur bill, Beijing may no longer be able to delay, or else it will be seen as a pushover every time a diplomatic – or other – challenge escalates. For a president for life such as Xi Jinping, we suspect that is hardly an option. So, stay tuned for China’s response which may be due any moment.
Meanwhile,
Huawei – a longtime target of US sanctions and accusations of intellectual property theft – has just shipped its latest Mate 30 smartphone, which contains absolutely no US hardware… Oops.
But rejoice not, see our take on why Chinese phone industry may become strictly a Chinese business in the mobile communications world outside of China in a matter of time (see Armageddon below).
Pompeo’s Claims of Huawei, ZTE Stealing Intellectual Property ‘Toxic Lie’ – Beijing
“What Pompeo says is a toxic lie. Pompeo claims that Huawei steals intellectual property in Israel, the United Kingdom and the United States, but we asked countless times, and every time the US side dodged answering this question because it does not have an answer. As of today, not a single country, not a single company, and not a single individual are able to present evidence that Huawei is a security threat,” China’s Foreign Ministry (Sister) Hua Chunying said.
It’s obvious the Globohomo intends to annihilate China’s mobile communications industry in its entirety. Meaning no one company will be spared – A warning to all the Huawei “alternatives” like Xiaomi, Oppo, One+, etc.
Me think the best bet for China telecommunication industry as a whole is to create a real people powered app store for all phones, not just for Huawei. And to adopt a common OS that is compatible to all Android apps. Plus, unless you can make Google bribe the hell out of both GOP and DEM the cabal style, you must create/gather utility apps that is on par with Google by hook or by crook… you know stuffs like Map, Gmail, Youtube. It’s tough shit but you get the drift.
So, easier is to threaten Google to find a way or you just gotta fight the big G-spot head on. Is there an alternative? Yes, there is… but get ready for the eternal war first.
Otherwise, there is a very good chance the Chinese phone industry may become strictly a business within China in a matter of time.
The China Mobile Communications Armageddon?
Why so?
Well, why should I buy a phone and have to do bullshits like side-loading this (from here) and that (from there)? Gimme (as a dude outside of China) one good reason to buy a Huawei Mate 30 if the price is not discounted by half?
It’s becos Huawei is equipped with superior camera? The best of this (hardware) and that (quality perhaps)?
This is retard thinking cos if I fancy camera, I’d get a real SLR camera that is unmatched by cellphone (with toy-sized lenses). Fact – Size (of lenses) does matter in camera. Plus, there is always iPhone, Samsung, Sony, and you know what, I heard even Nokia has been resurrected. Only Blackberry is still sleeping in Castle Dracula.

Huawei Plans to Move US Research Centers to Canada Amid US Crackdown, Trade War on China
Sounds like a plan – Why let Meng Wanzhou do nothing in Canada, lest she become another Chinese brat called Fuerdai (a Chinese term for the children of the nouveau riche in China) – Rich assholes who have nothing better to do other than things like burning hard cold cash, smashing Lamborghini with sledgehammer, or dyeing their pet dog black & white masquerading as Panda, etc.
How to Destroy a Lamborghini in 5 mins Fuerdai style

FBI Warns That Smart TVs May be Watching People
CNN: FBI issues warning that “smart TVs” — televisions equipped with internet streaming and facial recognition capabilities — may be vulnerable to intrusion
FBI further advised how to guard against possible intrusion – that smart TV owners educate themselves… change default network passwords, and to disable microphones and cameras blah, blah, blah.
Okay, why wouldn’t FBI just fucking tell Americans that one can do the same thing with Huawei phone?
Seriously, who’s really watching who here?
On a related note, we heard Colombian Drug Kingpin Roberto Escobar, the brother of notorious deceased Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar – who led the Medellin Cartel and died by gunshot during a police raid in 1993 – has launched the sale of a foldable phone in his bid to ‘beat Apple’.
The Escobar Fold 1 smartphone, named after the late drug lord, was reportedly designed in the United States and assembled in Hong Kong, with the initial production limited to a run of 100,000. The new gadget features Huawei like specs is selling for $349 a pop… Good Lord, can someone please connect me to King Roberto via Telegram – I just lost my phone.
Anyway,
Red Officer Pan Linlin, a distant descendant of China’s celebrity Royal concubine Consort Pan 潘淑妃 (c. 48 – c. 6 BCE) is waiting very eagerly for the Lord to decree the long overdue Blacklist to ban the motherfucking Wicked Americans from sexting Oriental beauties such as her dignified self.
