Originally posted by aldra It's part of it, but it's not so much the catalyst as it was part of the greater trade war. If anything China's punishing Canada for that; there's been little if any direct action against the US.
If you want to pin it down to an event, it's all coming from Trump's plan to resolve the US-China 'trade deficit' through political means
But didn't Canada only do it because we pressured them to do so? -

Yeah the main reason for it was apparently Huawei not respecting the unilateral sanctions on Iran and her being Huawei's CFO. She was arrested on behalf of the US and is pending extradition, and China is currently turning the screws on Canada to stop that extradition from happening. Last I heard they'd rescinded the stay of execution on two Canadian drug smugglers they'd granted as a courtesy to the Canadian government and arrested two more Canadian nationals on charges of spying. -

It's the other way around. Economics is used to accumulate and consolidate political power. The biggest businesses don't care so much about money as they do about the power that it affords them.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Yeah, when they were caught laundering money for the Mexan cartels the state department literally said that they wouldn't prosecute because they were afraid of the effects on the financial sector and economy. -

2019-05-28 at 10:58 PM UTCwhy the fuck phones gotta have an 'app store' anyway. why not just have apps downloaded from their own websites like we've done online with software laptops for decades now? i mean if you can build an app then surely you can put a quick site together ffs.

Android phones can already sideload apps without a store. The app stores basically do the job of collating the data and ordering it, so you know what options are available to you. It also serves as a measure of security and quality control.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

aside from the convenience and the marketing benefits, it's the only real way for a provider to guarantee (to a reasonable degree) that the applications it offers are safe - it's why all of the major *nix distributions use curated repositories and one of the reasons MS started up that gay Windows App Store.
that said I'd prefer that they focused on giving users control over user- and privilege-level security to control what damage apps can potentially do, but that would undermine their advertising/datamining business paradigm ('don't worry, we checked this app and it's safe, it's probably not recording your screen and/or cameras) and most people don't seem to understand the reason for it (ie. the rush to disable UAC in Windows Vista and up). -

no, monies are conduits of power, and the US treasury is just an unterbottom beta bitch that spreads its asscheeks at the whims and fancies and the cracks of the wheep of the FED.
the US treasury has no power, it is only as powerful as madames in a child prostitue brothels are powerful, in the sense that it determines which one of them little tender tax payers are going to get the shit fucked out of them.
the FED are the men patronizing these child prostitute brothels.
analogically speaking. -
2019-05-29 at 3:56 AM UTCThe FED is as toothless as your grandma giving out gumjobs without the actual state protecting public interests. That's exactly what it means for money to be a conduit of power: you will accept it as legal tender on threat of force.

what fucking validity of US$ as legal tender ?
US$ had already been made reserve currency of the world at the end of ww2 so irregardless of whether US treasury validates it as a legal tender or not it doesnt matter. you can either be a lesser faggot and clench your ass to resist it, or you can be a greater faggot by goatseing your ass and gleefully usher it in .... it wont matter, the world has already accepted it, and so you have to too.
you dont get to choose.
the real power lies in the creation of money.
