Still no blue sky
The "volunteers"
The word "fascism"
Small number of WWII allies
Modi
Xi's hair is more and more grey

Panda politics are over

All the wrong kind of attention in Western media

Zhang Xuecheng went further, arguing that, “Lying between heaven and earth, all writings are the study of history (shixue). The Six Classics are merely the work of the Sage [Confucius] selecting six kinds of history and presenting them as moral teachings. (via Shimada Keji)

“for the independence of a national group (minzu), an initial study of its national essence (guicui) was essential. In national essence, history was the primary thing. Next to historical research, all the other scholarly disciplines were merely ordinary skills.”
