        Unfortunately, this seems to be a common weak spot with a lot of anti-imperialist geopolitical analysts/journalists. Especially the older ones. I follow a bunch of them for their interesting perspectives and entertaining dismantling of Western narratives, but whenever they decide to take a jab at queer politics or sexual liberation in the West, the brainworms are on full display. I wish they’d stick to exclusively talking about geopolitics.

    From a recent opinion column

    My checklist after arriving in Shanghai is shrinking fast, with an important remaining task being exchanging my Belgian driver’s license for a Chinese one. My Chinese driver’s license expired years ago. According to a bilateral agreement between Belgium and China, I can exchange my Belgian driver’s license for a Chinese driver’s license without taking any test. That’s how I got my Belgian driver’s license years ago. But all online information suggests that I still have to write a test in Shanghai, which could take days to prepare for, because I need to score at least 90 percent to qualify for a driver’s license.

    I hope the information available online applies to countries other than Belgium, which is one of the few EU countries to have bilateral agreements with China.

    Kinda interesting, who are the other nations with a bilateral agreement?

      This is the most racist and ignorant US Senator I have seen. A lifetime bitch.

        Oh, lifetime bitch. Still a great phrase but unfortunately full-time bitch has already entered my mental lexicon. But there’s always room for more
