a cheap joke

the people around me treat the trump administration as a cheap joke. and i say cheap joke because they use it as a one liner to incite laughter or grab attention. someone says "d. trump!" and there'd be giggles. but what is so funny?

us as a sophisticated democracy since they adhere to the structure rigidly and train their people to be advocates for this system of freedom and perhaps liberation.. so democracy is really exciting because you cannot predict the rational human's behavior

democracy as i have observed is like the heart in the human body. it keeps everything moving and the blood flowing. nothing is static and permanent. perhaps this is the beauty of democracy.

abstract ideas aside, i just did a quick google of what it will mean for Asia and specifically east asia. while the article i read inspired new ideas, i think that in the next 4/5 years, global powers will swing back to the east.


I obviously am china-centric not because im chinese but because i'm asian. in 1945 when ww2 ended, we learnt that the winners of the war naturally dictated the course of the following events, all to prevent another world war from happening.

it has been 71 years. of adhering to the seemingly better system. in my field of interest, we also see how states that leaned closer to them got the tastier part of the meat. in various aspects: economic activities, policies

i dont really know what i am saying now but im just trying to address that everything happens for a reason and we should make full use of whatever circumstance presented. this could possibly mean well for our region so lets not get swayed by the "extremely biased media"-d.t. (2016)
