I was just in Hanoi! A thing I learned is that Vietnam is today the second largest producer and exporter of coffee, behind Brazil of course. And per capita, Vietnam produces and exports more than Brazil.

And as for taste - I love the rough and tough flavours of Vietnamese Robusta coffees! The Australian roasted Arabicas are mild and gentle, almost to the point of blandness in comparison.


Large amounts of clothing exports too.

But you found out... how?


They regularly pop up on the usual guanxi, douyin/weibo etc. They stay up for a few hours usually.


> but they're very frequent.

Yet you state their frequency as some sort of statistical fact. Your anecdotal experience doesn't make it any more or less true.


and you are refuting with even less justification. I told you how to check for yourself if you actually cared about veracity. Best of luck trying to get funding to publish something academic anti-CCP though, but I'd love it if you did. Also this is just a conversation, not an academic debate

Which means nothing. You still dont get my point.

It can be both.


The EU has made a difficult problem even worse by switching from pipeline gas to LNG.

LNG has anywhere from 10% to 100% more greenhouse gas emissions, depending on who you believe about how much methane leaks during LNG production and transport operations. Most credible estimate IMO is +60%.


Putin turned off the gas, not the EU


Really? Do you have a credible source for this?


The Wikipedia article cites a long list of reputable news outlets.

But it doesn’t support your claim.

In summary, Russia, after having their dollar and euro bank accounts frozen, demanded payment in roubles. It stopped supplying the gas to the customers who weren’t paying. After that, the EU announced it will stop buying Russian gas completely, and replaced it with LNG.

Thus increasing the greenhouse gas emissions attributed to its gas use by about 60%. :(


"My" claim:

> Putin ("Russia") turned off the gas

Your summary:

> Russia [...] stopped supplying the gas. [...]


Hmm… so are we agreeing that Russia turned off the gas because the EU stopped paying?
