While I obviously wish #Mongolia team all the best in SWAT Challenge 2026, perhaps Physical: Asia style, I am somewhat unnerved by an "international tactical showdown" as a competition.

Why? Not to be too cynical, @ladybolor.bsky.social but...
A) Mongolian govt pretty much signs any "international" document placed in front of it
B) Hope to get off T****'s no-visa list.

Apparently, Mongolia PM Zandanshatar was quick to join nefarious "Board of Peace". Surely, the Mongolian govt is not planning to pay US$1B membership.

Identifies elements of Mongolian-repressive policy in China:
-cultural representation
-migration
-disincentivization of language
-undermining tradtnl lifestyles
-crackdown on activism
I am broadly sympathetic, but note, report largely based on activist sources. Social media analysis persuasive tho.

"Since 2020, CCP authorities sought to remake education in #InnerMongolia. Their aim is cradle-to-univ pipeline of ‘soul-casting’, by which Putonghua, Han norms, & patriotic discipline become ‘code of conduct & daily habit’."
