China threatens to attack secessionist Taiwan

Fried Rice said:
hi NYU - I dont really think you much interested in debate, just want to annoy people. One Child Policy was a hard policy but also a necessary one. We were a starving country and hardly able to sustain ourselves. However now we reap the benefit as seen in our strong economy. This sacrifice by our elders ensured the prosperity for the present generation. Many now have more than one child but are subject to a higher level of tax (as costs to state are higher).

Fried Rice awaits NYU's long ranting answer

Are you defending the fact that many families choose to kill the child if it is a female, so they can have a male?

1.12 men are born for every 1 female. With a birth rate of 13/1000 pop., and a pop of 1.3 billion, that gives you 17 million births a year, 9.3 male and 7.7 female. That is 1.6 million infant girls each year who are killed. Not abortions, but actual living children who are killed because their parents wanted one with a penis. Disgusting.

I don't think your interested in answering any of my other questions to you.

You sure you don't want to try to defend your country's agression, its horrible human rights actions, the One Child policy, its government sponsored copyright infringement, or your supression of information and free speech?

Wanna take a shot at any of the others?

Coming from the land of designer babies, you are hardly one to comment.
The female infanticide issue is a problem in many nations where worth is placed on male children only, but I think you'll find China has done more to combat this and strengthen the position of women in society than many others - a society where women are far more valued than in the US, where you cling to pathetic homemaker/baby factory ideas. Fried Rice never defended infanticide - you are sidestepping because you are losing an argument.

Hmmm...So you're claming that this is a problem in many countries, and China has done more than most to fix it?

So how come China is 3rd in the world for most unbalanced birth ratio, behind Albania and Georgia. Guess they're not as good at fixing that problem as you would claim.

Try telling a woman in the US that and see how far it gets you.

Really?

One Child Policy was a hard policy but also a necessary one.

Isn't that defending infanticide?

There are many factors at play, and given that you can discount the many countries where this problem doesn't exist, that's not exactly a startling statistic you quote

No, it's defending the one child policy.
Give up. Mr. Rice is far too intelligent for you.

I don't have many friends in Hollywood. How about you explain your own snide comment for a change?

Um. Yes it is. So, your new argument (after the last one fell apart), is that because there are so many countries that don't practice infanticide, the fact that China has the third highest prevalence doesn't matter. Even though its the only "civilized" country that is so unbalanced, that makes it okay. Really good argument. What other factors might be at play? Enlighten a poor stupid American.

She'd never hear me over the sound of the hoover

Congratulations, you've managed to finally convince me that you know absolutely nothing about America.

No, it's defending the one child policy.

...which is based on Infanticide. Amazing how that chain of logic works, isn't it?

Give up. Mr. Rice is far too intelligent for you.

I would agree that he's probably fairly smart. I could tell that he's not an idiot by the fact that he chose not to address any of the other problems in China that I asked him about. I wish I could say the same for you.

Bye Arch Enemy, shame you leave. this is serious topic and we shouldnt let stupid comments by NYU spoil this....you know i think HE must be Chinese govt spy.

Fine. I don't mean to imply that you killed any of those people any more than you mean to imply I am killing innocent people in Iraq.

But would you like to address any of the issues I mentioned before?

You sure you don't want to try to defend your country's agression, its horrible human rights actions, the One Child policy, its government sponsored copyright infringement, or your supression of information and free speech?

Now you're changing the facts.
Before it was the third highest prevalence of gender inequity in child birth rates. Now it's the third highest infanticide rate. Make up your mind.
Many nations have naturally occuring unequal rates of male and female births, including many of your western "democracies." Are you accusing them all of infanticide?

Thank You Ms Franklin. I come to France in May time. maybe your BF will allow you to have a date - of course i only eat Chinese food :eek:

I'm assuming that you're claiming that the US promotes "designer babies." I've been waiting for you to make that claim, with no evidence, but you seem content to sit there and act smug.

The facts are the same. There's a reason that there's a significantly higher prevalence of males to females in China, and that reason is infanticide. You've already acknowledged that it existed, then tried to claim it wasn't as big a problem in China as many others. You're right, many nations DO have naturally occurring unequal rates, but when a country of 1.3 billion is 12% more likely to have a boy survive birth than a girl, that is statistically significant.

Do you mean the United States of America? America is a vast wonderful continent. Shame about the haemorrhoid on it that is the USA.

I missed exactly what paragon of modern virtue you are from, pray tell?

I claimed that China had dome more than others to address the situation and to improve the position of females in society. If you can't argue without distroting what others say then belt up.

What kind of graceless person would take a cheap swipe like that against somebody making a great effort in what is not their first language? A United Statesian, that's who.

Fried Rice - your English is excellent. I'd like to see your critic try his hand at Cantonese (or are you a Mandarin speaker?). Given that United Statesians speak a bastardised, incorrect form of English, full of mis-spellings (such as color, fetus, center - can you believe the ignorance?) I think our McFriend's McComment is rather misplaced.

Care to enlighten me to some of the others?

I'm going to take a wild guess and assume France, from some of your other posts. It's too late to get into that issue.

I speak Spanish and a little bit of Italian. Do you speak Cantonese?

And the French speak a bastardized version of Latin. Yawn.

No one in America designs their babies, and so a few rich people clone cats? Big deal.

I really have no use for the rest of your "argument." You know nothing about America, and I don't really feel like explaining it to you, because it will obviously not measure up to whatever utopia you're from.

Dear Urethra - poor NYU seems a bit tired and so must be past his bedtime. His hot milk and cookie are calling him. He seems such an angry little boy and reminds me of an English expression - "all talk no action" or is "empty vessels make most sound" more correct ?

I speak Putongha (usually refered to as Manadarin). I also speak Cantonese and Shanghinese - these are considered dialects but are really languages in their own right. Of course I am work hard to improve my English as well :p

i just saw that NYU accuse me of starting the World War 2 - I never knew Hitler was Chinese !
 
whoa whoa whoa.. I am taking my towel back out and now I want a refund.

It's one thing to talk about a situation or about Infanticide, or whatever the fruck.

But please don't gang up on the United States... I accept the United States problems.. but France has problems as well and so does China.. just becasue we don't have a sense of national pride doesn't mean you all can diss us. The only french people I have encountered were nothing but stuck up snobs... please don't remind me of them.

Franklin, Si vous plait, Etais Unis n'est pas mal..."Designer Babies" c'est faux.

Fried has a right to lash out though I'd like if you all would chill with the name-calling etc etc.

Welcome back Arch - i bet Taiwan is already forgotten in your news and all the talk is back to Michael Jackson ! If we are going to march (or swim) across to Taiwan i suppose now is perfect time to do it !
 
No Taiwan is still a top thing in the media.. we have so many different media stations that both are being carried on... Our media hardly ever goes in depth of different topics.. but if news happens they will report it. Not even George Bush would attack another nation without the full-support of his people.

Fried Rice,

You gotta learn to be rude back to that pesky NYU. He has a great understanding of his politics and he makes you tap out with his rude and cranky behavior. You can't quit fighiting him just because you called you a baby killing Chinese person.. show him up with some facts.. that'll really get this debate a-going.

In case I failed to make it clear previously, I never meant to imply that Fried Rice participated in, or was party to, any of these heinous acts. I simply am appalled that he is an apologist for their occurrance. And I would welcome some facts, as actual numbers and truths are hard to come by in defense of China's actions.

has NYU has short term memory loss here is your comment -

The reason it's not in the 20 worst atrocities is pretty simple: numbers. We didn't kill 120 million people, unlike you.

how to argue with such nonsense :rolleyes:

Fried Rice has better things to do
