Agriculture warfare is fucked up beyond belief. Invasive species could seriously fuck up our ability to feed people. China needs to be sanctioned and isolated...

Well the mysterious seeds are more than likely bullshit anyways. Just some marketing scam to ramp up good reviews for a product.

But yeah, China shenanigans have no bounds. More than Russia? Maybe...

Seeds are innocuous, USDA. Likely result of "brushing" scam, they send low weight packages at cheap shipping rates to fake customers (real addresses) so that they can give themselves fake positive reviews on merchant websites. Seeds just happen to be light weight.

I've heard of weird policies and loopholes that they do there. Like in order to get something certified as China Export but sell domestically (at a higher price), they'll load the product on a ship, make the ship do a loop out to sea and back again, then offload the cargo.

Disney’s new live-action film Mulan has become a global sensation, but not just for the reason the storied production company hoped.

Some viewers who paid to stream the movie on Disney+ last weekend found something troubling in the credits: Disney thanked eight government bodies in Xinjiang, a western province in China where around 2 million Uighur Muslims have been forced into concentration camps by the Chinese government. It turns out parts of Mulan were filmed in Xinjiang two years ago, well after the world knew about Beijing’s plan to “reeducate” Uighurs with Communist Party doctrine.

Yeah, so, fuck Disney. :down:

lol, you dummy. That’s not what they’re saying. You post an article and don’t even read it. Or maybe you have some faulty comprehension skills...
