A typical American is just a blind believer, believing what they were told about how good and great the Americans were, and how bad Chinese were made to be. Jim Rogers threw a pail of water on his interviewer, the young man probably got a rude awakening that his beliefs were just a pack of lies Any American viewing this interview would go away shaking in disbelief if he is willing to face the truth or getting angry with Jim Rogers for telling them what they did not know, did not want to know.It is a 1 hour video but worth listening to. The intro was quite innocent until Jim Rogers touched on China, a total contrast to the fictitious America. The young man still tried to regurgitate what he was told about China and his belief that China is the demon like all unthinking and evangelising Americans.
His naiveity got clearer and clearer as it gets to the end of the interview. While Jim Rogers was trying very hard to politely educate this young twit but his deep distrust of China, as Jim puts to him, after being fed with American propaganda daily, kept surfacing and you could see how disgusted Jim Rogers was with him at the end. Jim Rogers simply told him that the Chinese have every right to be rich and prosperous and a good life.
At one point Jim Rogers pointedly told the young man that he did not know what he was talking about, what was happening in Xinjiang and about ill treatment of Uyghurs. The twit started to be defensive but would not change his allegations about ill treatment of Uyghurs. He came through as an American agent out to spread lies against China with his standard text. You could see Jim Rogers getting so frustrated that he wanted to walk off, knowing that he had wasted all his time to an incalcitrant believer. Jim Rogers was angry. The first time I saw Jim Rogers angry. He is always a jovial and amiable man, very polite and generous. To make him angry, it takes a lot of stupidity to do that by this young man.
The interview is a lesson in history, in the truth, in finding your own truth and not listening to the biased views and lies of people with an agenda. Jim Rogers was trying to enlighten this young man and anyone watching this video.
A great video to spend an hour on it. Everyone, including Americans, who wants to know the truth, to get an education on China and the US, must view this interview and come up wiser. This is a rare occasion when Jim Rogers was dead serious and in a mood to educate and teach whoever is willing to listen to his wisdom.

A typical Sinkies Banana is just a blind believer, believing what they were told about how good and great the America is, and how bad China is made to be. Unfortunately, there is no Jim Rogers to throw a pail of cold water on any CNA or St interviewer or reporter to give the Sinkie Banana a rude awakening that his/her beliefs are just a pack of lies
ReplyDeleteMany Sinkie Bananas also don't like people like RB or Jim Rogers telling them what they did not know, or did not want to know.
In Sinkieland, 61% of the voters are probably Sinkies or Bananas, or Sinkie Bananas.
ReplyDeleteA most high very senior Singapore diplomat, a Chinese Singaporean once wrote an article in the press praising America. He said, "The United States is a benign and benevolent power --------". When I read what he wrote I almost fell off from my chair. I was wondering whether he had been smoking Yankee pipes or a bedfellow of the American rogues and scoundrels.
Shocking, isn't it? Didn't he know that the United States is the world's greatest killer terrorist country and a brutal and atrocious plunderer and robber with no precedents.

ReplyDeleteThe rush to find a conspiracy around the COVID-19 pandemic’s origins is driven by narrative, not evidence.
“This ‘growing body of evidence’—we haven’t seen it,” Ben Embarek, WHO food security expert, said.
US Justice Department said Wednesday it had seized 33 Iranian government-controlled media websites, as well as three of the Iraqi group Kataeb Hezbollah, which it said were hosted on US-owned domains in violation of sanctions.
ReplyDeleteVisitors to leading Iranian media sites like Press TV and Al-Alam, the country's main English language and Arabic language broadcasters, as well as the Al-Masirah TV channel of Yemen's Huthis, were met with single-page statements declaring the website "has been seized by the United States Government" accompanied by the seals of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the US Commerce Department.
The evil Empire is desperate. RB's blog is also at risk of being seized.
