What measures should Western nations take to pursue reparations for the damage caused to our economies by China?
People will die as a result of the economic collapse caused by China's mismanagement of the COVID-19.
Remind that China: > Lied to the world about outbreak, they knew about it in NOVEMBER > Refused outside help to contain it > Failed to lock down borders to prevent it from escaping > Silenced whistleblowers who sounded alarm
Should Western nations: - impose/increase tariffs on the importation of Chinese goods? - commence an international investigation into to covering up of the spreading of the disease and the silencing of whistle-blowers - militarily force them off islands in South East Asia while they are weak - other alternative measures
Debt forgiveness. China is the biggest lender to the US government.

I completely agree OP. The chinese cause these outbreaks every fucking time and get away with it. Our governments won't do anything to hold them responsible though, sadly. They are already trying to play the angle that china didn't cause the outbreak.

The PRC is waging information warfare against the GOP and USA in support of DNC given that none of their candidates proved popular. All of this is an effort to restore the treason that was happening at the behest of China under the Obama-Biden administration.
Europeans depend heavily on Russian oil / gas. They do not like Russia having a lot of leverage over them in this way. Poland / Ukraine are the eastern border of Europe as far as Western Europeans are concerned, so they want NATO running a defensive corridor there.
The Middle East primarily sells oil / gas to China. They do not have pipeline access to Europe, and the United States blocks pipeline access to China via Afghanistan (which we occupy, for this exact reason).
In the middle of the Obama regime, they toppled Egypt / Libya, specifically by supporting rebels in eastern Libya. You probably don't know this, but eastern Libya is the highest per capita recruiting grounds for al-Qaeda anywhere in the world. They are the ones who were largely responsible for building IEDs that killed most of our troops in Iraq. Lots and lots of American blood on their hands. These are the people Obama supported against Gaddafi however.
Why? Libyan weapons stockpiles were shipped to Syria. The plan was to overthrow Syria and then Turkey. The intention here was to open a pipeline path from Saudi Arabia to Europe. The easiest way to do this is Jordan / western Iraq > Syria > Turkey > Europe
The fallout of such a pipeline opening up goes like this: Saudi energy becomes cheaper than Russian (easier to extract than Russian, but comparable delivery prices once a pipeline is available from Saudi Arabia to Europe). Europe switches to ME energy. Russia then has to switch to selling to China. Afghanistan is no longer valuable real estate in controlling Chinese energy sovereignty. The West has no controllable territory between Russia and China to cut supplies > China obtains effective energy independence, superpower status

It's a fucking joke. They need to be made accountable for the damage.
Jaxson Wood
We need to start a campaign to convince normies that reparations from China are a good thing. Kind like the old iOS update things that we (/g/) tricked them with.
As gay as it sounds, we need to work together with other boards on this and get it out there.
Use some bullshit like minorities most affected and higher death rate, China should cover costs since they can afford it
Mason Wood
Unless western governments stand together or the US takes the lead on this, I don't think anything will happen.
I wish countries weren't so dependent on china for goods. Western nations need to become more independent from china first. This way they can impose actual sanctions on china and even travel bans to keep the chinese out of their countries.

ban gain of function research. If the virus is artificial it is a crime agains humanity. Wuhan institute of Virology brought diseased animals 80 meters from an open air market. That's enough to hold the researchers and investors accountable.
> I don't think anything will happen. Typically I'd agree, but given the magnitude of the response and degree to which basic freedoms are being curbed overnight to limit the spread of the virus, I am somewhat more optimistic about Western nations responding appropriately.
> I wish countries weren't so dependent on china for goods. It's worse than just import dependency for many Western nations. I'm not sure for other countries, but for Australia for example, we are entirely dependent on China importing our minerals. Without this, our economy is significantly weakened.
Completely agree - we need independence from China economically. I am typically more of a trade protectionist, but if this requires significantly liberalised trade between Western nations while huge tariffs against China, then so be it.
Jeremiah Martin
The peoples republic of china has destroyed all of my free trade libertarian idealism. Tariffs good, isolationism gold, regime change in Beijing good
It should be the end goal of the economic nationalist position. Anything else is hypocricy. However, I would concede that trade liberalisation may be necessary in the pathway to autarky. Suggesting that a nation could become economically independent tomorrow, is retarded. Wealth generation and technological advancement is required first.

Go to bed Justin. It's none of your business. Your tranny state can't do shit
China unleashed it on the entire human race. Now they’re deflecting the blame to the United States—imagine having that kind of fucking nerve. The Chinese have no shame. Or maybe they have ONLY shame?
Oliver Baker
You were on to something semi-coherent until you started gibbering about CHINA NUMBAH ONE
China is a supply economy, they only exist as a manufacturing base because they could supply western countries with massive quantities of cheap consumer goods. The only real value the Chinese had to offer for all those years was slave labor, and fast overseas shipping, the former of which is choking to death on their own blood, and the latter is blocked from their biggest trade partner for three months (probably longer). China is a level of turbo-fucked that is difficult to describe.

No, you need to stop masturbating if you believe in the supremacy of the white race.
My mate frrom Hong Kong said he is already getting financially compensated because of this, even though he personally hasn't been outside Britain in years. He said they got about £1000. I don't see why the rest of the world can't be compensated as well.

Global socialism bad and someone else already claimed the term national socialism
Jace Peterson
Just stop doing business with them. That’s how you punish China. It’s that simple. Had that been our response to 9/11 Arabs would be back in the stone ages and Elon musk would buy the Middle East for fun.
Benjamin Jackson
Whoever let researchers bring diseased animals within 80 meters of a meat market is responsible
Landon Perry
How do we do this without causing further economic damage? I'm not about to muh GDP but if we fall into a recession how can we pick and choose who we sell goods to and buy shit from?
Jace Gray
>MUH BOOMER DEATHS We should give China some incentive to keep doing this every 70 years.
David Smith
In addition to all that, China needs to import at least 40% of its food to feed its population of 1.4 billion at the level they have become accustomed to.
Mason Robinson
>without doing economic damage Its already broke, now is the time to fix it
Justin Jenkins
Make China forgive the debt that we "owe" them.

Good point
William Hernandez
Cancel all debt.
Nolan Diaz
I think china shouldn't pay reparations until every single western country pays reperations to their former colonies
