@groundrocket As CapTrade is designed to hurt Russian interests, it makes the most sense to push when we are strong and they are weak. (Tweet Back) 2010/01/29

Lessons in Chinese Citizenship

by tdaxp ~ January 8th, 2008

Inspired by Mountainrunner’s Europe v. Asia post, lessons in Chinese citizenship… with rodents!

At first, I wondered the same thing.

The rabbit is supposed to be in front of an anime “action” sunburst. Compare with the “Yakuza” ad from the 2004 election. [1,2]
