Looking into it.

Artificial Intelligence vs Actual Indians.

Apologies, but do we agree that this is much less reliable and clear than what relevant languages (some more than others - Russian, for example, is much less ambiguous in this regard) have?

Okay, so,what’s the rule for picking the right components? Sounds like this is the case of ‘baa’ being pronounced like ‘aa’, so the knowledge of how to pronounce ‘b’ doesn’t help, and even if you knew the pronunciation of ‘aa’, you would still need to make a guess.

水 and 冰 do not sound similar at all in Putonghua, and the same goes for other characters that I have dealt with so far. Not sure how it can be otherwise, considering the initial-terminal rules for pronunciation in Putonghua.

There is also the fact that it doesn’t seem possible in such languages to have a good estimation for the pronunciation of newly-encountered ‘words’ (lexemes? I don’t remember linguistics well enough to be precise and accurate here) without looking it up or asking about it.

Aren’t there upper boundaries on a soldier’s age (per rank)? How would this even work in this case?

Executive-ing from the bench

The ‘belief’ that Ukraine will have failed to achieve its major objectives? That belief?

It’s the only way they can get higher education!

I am not sure what ‘false dichotomy’ you have in mind. Xiaohongshu has literally argued that the PRC attempting to ‘crush’ the USSR was good. Whether or not their perspective on how much of a contribution that made is not relevant to them being a national chauvinist who couldn’t care less about what the world outside of the PRC is subjected to.

Here’s a source, though Xiaohongshu has since deleted own comments there:

How is saying that China should raise its wages so that the Chinese working class has the purchasing power to import from other Global South countries, a “chauvinist” position?

Not sure why you are asking this question, considering that I never raised issue with that.

The issue that I do have is that you quite literally supported the destruction of the USSR and anti-colonial movements of the world, with the justification being that that helped the PRC.

Also, on a minor note, do you still use the words ‘liberal’ and ‘neoliberal’ as synonyms?

If you somehow think I’m a “chauvinist” for China, you’ll see here that this is not the case

This is quite probably a reference to me calling you a national chauvinist over you supporting the destruction of the USSR and the establishment of the ‘cursed marriage’ between the PRC and the US, as you were evidently concerned solely with the well-being of people in the PRC, and were fine with colonial exploitation of the rest of the world.

Supporting the EU becoming this net importer so that the PRC gets to continue to enjoy the status quo would, in fact, be chauvinist of you.
