“Exercise a high degree of caution in China due to the risk of arbitrary enforcement of local laws.”
LMAO “arbitrary enforcement of local laws”. This must be a Monty Pyhon skit.
In China, you may also be subject to:
- severe punishments, even for non-violent acts such as financial crimes. Chinese authorities may also apply the death penalty for crimes deemed serious, including drug offences
“severe punishments, even for non-violent acts such as financial crimes.” They are mad China treats rich people crimes against the poor as crime. As The Internationale says, under capitalism “The law oppresses us and tricks us”.
- an exit ban, which you may only learn about as you go through customs and immigration controls when trying to leave China. An exit ban may prevent you from leaving the country if you, your family or your employer and/or business associates are involved in any open civil or criminal investigations, including business disputes
“Oh, no, our white collar criminals can’t flee from their wrongdoings!”
This is some high class commedy.
Indigenous Canadians, environmental activists, Meng Wanzhou, and many others would like to have a word.
I love how we define violence as something involving bodily harm in an encounter between individual people. Therefore denying a person housing or food isn’t violent, because the perpetrator of the harm has been abstracted and the harm doesn’t look like cuts, bruises, and broken bones. The richest Canadians are committing violent acts each and every day by hiding basic human rights behind pay walls, and it’s not only not illegal, it’s how the system is supposed to work.
Louder for the liberals in the walls!
