why is this allowed /pol/?
>>521006558That's where I get my $1.50 hotdogs
>>521006558Piraeus... We've all gone down, haven't we? Our whole civilization.
>>521006558they owned it since 2009you complaining now??
>>521006558Just how big are fucking cruise ships!?Surely that's shooped.
>>521006558Because COSTCO comes with funding, international protection, Washington State Professionals unparalleled. Why the fuck would you want to prevent that?
>>521007203>you complaining nowI just heard about it for the first time in my life literally an hour ago
>>521007389here's a better pic
>be every greedy boomer politician>ccp spy offers sideways pussy in exchange for pushing sale of your country's vital resources>"well if only i do it, it'll be okay">wake up to discover your entire country got bought out by the ccp for pennies
>>521007389It's a NCL Prima class ship, length would be 300 meters and 70 meters tall. They are pretty chunky.>>521006558Why wouldn't it be allowed? You are free to buy it yourself if you don't like the current owners. Alternative to selling it would be greeky style "let the germans pay for it" arrangement of course or just letting it shut down.
>>521006558YELLOW PERIL
>>521006558>Welcome to COSCO, I love you
>>521008109>Why wouldn't it be allowed?Because ports are the most direct way to enter a country and are always the number one site for smuggling of contraband and people. Letting a foreign government, especially one as underhanded as China, run your port of entry is like holding the door open for crime and invasion.
>>521007389>>521007628Seems about right, all the other ones are going to the islands, not really cruise ships, though some have sleeper cabinsDid 10 hours to Crete was a very comfy trip. Greece mogs the rest of southern Europe, and really most of Northern Europe, keen to go back.
>>521009790The police and customs control that.And all the workers are locals. You won't find chinks manning the docks.It's a dumb fucking argument that I never understood, people say it all the time about Darwin port, what are they going to do, steal the fucking port? All it means is if China tries anything we'll take their shit and laugh, just like what happens to uppity Russians who think they can escape their collapsing neosoviet shithole with their assets.
>>521010144taking greek ferries is fun. i was once on one that went from Thessalonica to Rodos stopping at loads of islands on the way. thing was empty and i just set up camp in the TV and had the place to myself. took a couple days, was cold, snowing at sea, got to walk around all the different ports while the ship docked etc. was great. a floating hotel for two nights.
>>521008796oh man they have a starbucks here?
>>521006558If China collapses, it reverts back. Eventually, it will be back in their hands.
>>521006558CONQUERED
>>521006558it's allowed, because it serves the interests of my country to play along with multiple suitors,don't worry, we buy useless and expensive wind turbines from your country
>can't own anything in China>they can own shit here>shit hits fan>we take all their shit and theyt can't take any of our shit
>>521008649>A potential conflict between mutts and yellow rape babiesJust break out the insecticide already.
>>521006558Because the wectoid libcuck insects must be killed.
