You will have noticed it before: whenever Western media feels they absolutely must report on a positive news story about China, they employ their slimiest trick, the "but at what cost?" trope.

Basically, they will run a headline that is objectively good news, and then to make it sinister and negative, they'll add a "but at what cost?" on the end.

Here are some real examples:

China is getting smarter - but at what cost? (BBC News)

China has avoided the grim US Covid toll. But at what cost? (The Guardian)

China brings jobs to Ethiopia but at what cost? (BBC News)

Honestly, it's pretty unprofessional and unethical, but some of the biggest Western mainstream media platforms still use this trick to this day.

But what is that? Today, we'll go beyond the propaganda.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad !

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

Hope to see you all asap.
