CCP Mouthpiece Warns Against "Sinophobia" as Ukraine Hits Back at Chinese Insults

As the world voices support for #Ukraine, Chinese netizens have poked fun at the situation, suggesting that the war be prolonged and the more attractive ones among Ukraine’s women be “imported” into #China. The remarks have caused anger among Ukrainians, and Chinese students in Ukraine are reportedly trying to pass for Japanese. In defence of the Chinese netizenry, #HuXijin, now a special commentator for the Chinese state tabloid #GlobalTimes, wrote that it is completely Ukraine’s fault if Sinophobia breaks out in the country, asking rhetorically “where in the world Internet [discussions] are thoroughly rational”.

In a Weibo post published on 27 February, Hu says that the Chinese people are generally very friendly to Ukraine and wish Ukrainians peace. But while acknowledging that Chinese netizens need to be reminded to stay calm and refrain from triggering other communities, Hu says “it mustn’t be accepted as a reason for the foreign world to take revenge on Chinese expats”.

“It is a crime for anyone to persecute the Chinese citizens in Ukraine,” he adds, “and it’s nothing short of making himself an enemy of the People’s Republic of China. It definitely won’t end well for [him].”

#SouthKorea’s Intelligence Agency Has Joined NATO’s Cyber Defense Unit; #China Isn’t Happy

//On Thursday, May 5, 2022, South Korea’s spy agency became the first in Asia to join #NATO’s Cyber Defense Group in a move that risks inflaming tensions with regional superpower China.

In response, #HuXiJin, the strident editor of Chinese Communist Party (#CCP) mouthpiece The #GlobalTimes, tweeted that the move was an affront to Beijing and even lays the groundwork for war in Asia. “If South Korea takes a path of turning hostile against its neighbors, the end of this path could be a #Ukraine,” he wrote.

Despite hosting some of the world’s top tech companies, like #LG and #Samsung, South Korea has been a surprising laggard regarding cybercrime and only launched a National Cybersecurity Strategy under the #MoonJaeIn administration in 2018.

This is despite South Korea being the principle target of increasingly frequent cyberattacks from across the DMZ. A crack squad of 6,800 North Korean agents are engaged in fraud, blackmail and online gambling that together generate some $860 million annually, according to the Korea Institute of Liberal Democracy in Seoul. Many attacks originate from inside China.//

China's "#LittlePink" Celebrate Abe's death, #Badiucao Reveals Their Offensive Speech through Translation

Former Japanese Prime Minister #ShinzoAbe was assassinated on Friday July 8, 2022.

When the globe mourns and condemns violence, a number of Chinese netizens, who were being called #LittlePink for their pro-CCP stance, stand out from the group -- praising the suspect as a hero, and calling Abe an extreme anti-China activist.

Chinese-Australian dissident artist #Badiucao initiates the great translation movement, revealing the ridiculous speech of these Chinese netizens in a hope to letting more people around the globe know about their behaviour.
