China Floodwatch 2020-21 - Wuhan, Hubei/Henan Province is sinking and I dunno how to swim.

[benutz]

The two really big canals are the Panama and the Suez. Panama is a bigger deal IIRC. There's also the Strait of Hormuz and the Malacca Straits

Uh, the Strait of Hormuz is just a waterway bottle-neck in the Arabian/Persian Gulf. It can't get flooded. In fact, it already was flooded all those centuries ago which is what the biblical floods were all about. It was a land mass connecting Saudi Arabia with Iran, but things changed when the 'floods' came. Lots of recent research been done on this, but I digress.

It's a very quiet body of water though. No flooding there. Maybe I got you wrong. Just seems odd for you to put that up in relevance to the question. I think you probably meant as a giant waterway. If so, my bad.


As for the chinese stuff, well, I went through a few of those vids (thanks for archiving by the way). I was wondering if they just chucked a modern time stamp on it and then I thought: fuck it! that can't all be phoney. That's a lot of land to get submerged. Even if it turns out that some of that footage is old, well, fuck me, will you stop building shit on top of wet soil that is only going to get wiped away in the next flood.

I think China may have bigger problems than anyone else envisioned even if half those vids are true.

It's just so strange all this happening now so soon after the WuFlu, plus all the Anti-China rhetoric from the US/UK governments. Why hit them so hard right now when they are so weakened? Shouldn't we be saying ALL Chink Lives Matter and sending the lifeboats or something? Not kicking them when they are down?

And then the political diplomatic expulsions which will only lead to tit for tat, which will only lead to reduced foreign relations.

Talk about helping your 'friends' when they are down.


2020 folks. Only half way through the year.

It's been good to know 'ya!



EDIT:

Sorry, Return of the Freaker, I was wrong. Apologies to you. My reading comprehension is shitty right now. I see what you were getting at now. My bad.

Sorry Freaker

It was one I hadn't heard of and could be blocked by a single ship. Malacca seems to qualify

They were just answering my "single point of failure" question, which isn't specific to floods. Just any thing you wouldn't think of that could easily fuck up the world if something went wrong.

If the dam were to break I wonder if China would throw a tantrum and start something with the US.

They would be insane to, but communists do have a different value system than normal people.

I don't think they would be able to wage much of a war with no food. Right now with out food imports they would be fucked because it seems their agriculture industry is #rekt right now.

Found a few more videos of the utter carnage taking place in China today re: the floods.

I'm a twitter moron and they aren't archived. But it's late here and I don't think these will be taken down any time soon. This is a new channel or rather these vids only have a couple of hundred views, so I'm pretty sure this hasn't been posted here already. The videos are from today apparently. Bold captions are mine.

Serious flooding, cars submerged, general chaos -

This is from a few days ago. Infrastructure collapsing. Fukushima level disaster zone -

https://twitter.com/Fei_Nigh/status/1284088412601892864

I think the chinks are probably just trying to shore up the resources to deal with this humanitarian disaster on their doorstep. So yeah, now would be a good time to hit them with all this diplomatic shit that has been going on in the UK and US. Not a political bod really so won't offer any more than that. Strange timing though. All of a sudden.

Hopefully they do the right thing and look after their own people who have been displaced and affected by this. There must be hundreds dead if not thousands by this point. Water borne diseases to follow. Again, not my area of expertise. But you don't need to have a crystal ball to see this alone is going to have long term impact. And that's without the 'Big One' kicking off, which hopefully it won't. If nothing else, it puts too much of a spanner in international geo-politics at a time when there are already enough spanners in there sabotaging the system anyway.

Most of that infrastructure isn't built to last anyway, like in Japan. There's something like a 30-40 year lifecycle for reasons that escape me at the moment. Then again, building 20 story hotels on the banks of rivers that are prone to flooding - well, 30-40 years becomes extremely optimistic by that point. You are gonna get some kind of bad natural disaster within that time frame.

Man plans.
God laughs.
The chinks build more 30 story hotels 40 feet below a critical flood plain.

Wew.

I've got these video downloaded, but I am not able to upload them right now.

Just as a friendly reminder, make sure you download everything you see. Null is nice enough to give us ample space to upload mirrors to the forum. He even made this simple tutorial:

Media from China should always be downloaded and archived, even if you can't upload it right away. Information from China loves to vanish suddenly and never return.

 

[Atomic Wangler]

kindof funny that Chinkland went communist 30 years after Slavland, and now it's collapsing 30 years after Slavland did, does Communism have a shelf life?

It's less of an estimated lifespan and more of a hard set countdown timer.

 

[Jimmy Durante's Ballsack]

We're simply returning the courtesy they've extended to us. This is the game and there is no prize for second place.

They probably want to. But they most likely can't in the state they're in now. And it wouldn't be pretty if they tried.

[2021Murder]

honestly its too bad Trump can't get anyone in government to trust him, because destroying infrastructure would be the sort of thing that would be a great way to fuck china over. Same with the US and lots of other places, but 25% of our population won't vanish overnight if one dam bursts.

plus it would really let trump rub it in the noses of all the other businesses that made shit in china. suddenly those jobs go to americans.

 

[ObeseScreamingBlackMan]

If the dam lets loose and as a consequence a bunch of jobs come back to the US, I think Trump could at that point claim that HE now has the Mandate of Heaven

Yeah. You eventually run out of other peoples money to steal.

 

[heathercho]

There's unconfirmed reports that China (or rather some of their peons - especially my own personal lolcow) are wanting to push the narrative of "The US cloud seeded us and fucked our dam". Whether it's intra-China shit or what will be the official line, .
That would be kinda hilarious.

So just for future reference -

No they won't, we South Americans will be rolling in it! Muwahahahahaha.

Would explain why they are going all out sparking the powerkeg we have set up here over the decades.

As someone trying to break into the US manufacturing sector, as a tester, let me just say this all great news

 

[SmugAutist]

No they won't, we South Americans will be rolling in it! Muwahahahahaha.

The jobs would most likely go to India. It may not be perfect, but so long as the poos don't go around subverting our cultural institutions or finance riots on the streets, I'd rather see India become Superpower 2020 and have China go into another warring states era.

Pretty confident he already does have the Mandate of Heaven

There's unconfirmed reports that China are wanting to push the narrative of "The US cloud seeded us and fucked our dam".

I'm guilty of failing to do it, too, but you (by which I mean everyone) really ought to replace all the "L"s and "R" when quoting bugmen. And of course emphasis other aspects of the accent, too.

"De US croud seeded us and fuck our dam!"

 

[cuddle striker]

For their own sake, they’d better hope that dam isn’t made of papier-mâché like everything else in that godforsaken country.

Spoiler: Do not learn Mandarin!

re: . Every fake pirate good from China isn't just being sent west by some mustache twirling douchebag, it's all part and parcel of government policy. Imagine if the US Gov't had a shadow Bureau of Dodgy Goods that made sure our less expensive exports were just garbage products, made from junk parts. That's what goes on in Grorious Chinee Pepers Lepubrick.

The thing is there are some high quality factories in China if you can oversee the quality control, but you pretty much have to live there or have a very trusted associate... They have the cheap labour, they have the industrial CNC machines, and they have enough high IQ managers to oversee the project. But there seems to be this culture of everyone expecting their bit for favors owed or favors future...

Funny thing. Got a door hanger on the back of my door for you know, hanging coats and whatnot. Only been up a couple of months. Put a 'light' shirt on it the other day and the fucking thing snapped off and my shirt fell to the floor. I mean, it snapped in the main metal part of it, under hardly any load bearing stress. Probably made out of tin pots as well.

When I grew up, I don't remember any small metal object like that just disentegrating under hardly any pressure at all. They make this shit out of old coke cans I swear it and just give it a lick of paint.

kindof funny that Chinkland went communist 30 years after Slavland, and now it's collapsing 30 years after Slavland did, does Communism have a shelf life?

imagine seeing totally unregulated capitalism, no government QC or regulations on businesses, every man for himself, dog eat dog, bribery-based govt locals, and thinking it's communism

they haven't been commies for a while. it's this:

CCP has lost the Mandate of Heaven
View attachment 1464516

the old dynasty is capitalist, that's why they lost the mandate. the new dynasty comes in every other form: socialist, communist, whatever, then degrades over time.

"Jews on steroids" is not even a joke. The sheer greed and cheapness of the culture- it's capitalism with a totalitarian government feeding off it at every opportunity.

the Slavs were commies, but that's a different story.

The jobs would most likely go to India. It may not be perfect, but so long as the poos don't go around subverting our cultural institutions or finance riots on the streets, I'd rather see India become Superpower 2020 and have China go into another warring states era.

India could use a break.

Those jobs will never come back to the US, Trump is not the great negotiator his fanboys think he is- and no company will pay US labor rates when they can pay bustee rates.

is there any footage in Shanghai?
the other downstream cities?

edited to say; not even Mandarin, don't learn Cantonese either. it's what I studied and fuck no. you'll be in exactly those situations, even is you never go there.
