Students In US - NO to israeli Genocide!

US: Over 2,000 Arrested Throughout University Campuses – Amid Growing Domestic Discontent! (3.5.2024)

In response to recent college protests across the nation, U.S. President Joe Biden on Thursday said in a brief speech that he supports peaceful protests, but vandalism, violence, hate speech and other chaos had nothing to do with peaceful protests. “Dissent must never lead to disorder,” he said.

When asked whether the protests at American campuses have made him rethink his Middle East policy, Biden said no.

Despite that, the multi-day wave of campus anti-war protests is indeed a manifestation of young Americans’ discontent with how the Biden administration is managing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

A recent CNN poll found that 71 percent of American adults surveyed were dissatisfied with the Biden administration’s handling of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Among those under the age of 35, 81 percent were dissatisfied.

Why China Should Use ‘British’ English in its Official Translations! (11.9.2023)

Furthermore, there is no such entity as ‘British’ English – as this is an insulting designation that reduces our original language of ‘English’ to a relative construct, or just one version amongst many. This is similar to reducing Chinese script to the scripts as developed by its Korean or Japanese cousins. Indeed, American-English is a vehicle which has been historically developed and designed to express a) US anti-intellectualism, and b) US racial (anti-Chinese) attitudes. This is why I reject the Chinese State habit of officially using ‘American-English’ when translating Chinese-language articles into ‘English’. The English language as spoken and written in the UK is ancient and historically pre-exists any modern notions of Western racism (unlike its Ameican counter-part – which expresses the racism within which US culture has developed).
