Someone knowledgeable redpill me on China's Opium Wars psyops. Did they really go down as China depicts it? Because I've nooooticed some discrepencies.Firstly, opium (use) predates the Opium Wars by quite a few millennia and even in China, it's been used as far back as the 7th century when it was first imported during and by the Tang dynasty. It then became a staple "medicinal" use herb for centuries and for example, had become completely normal by the 12th century and Song dynasty, even becoming a routine aphrodisiac. Its popularity continued until the Ming dynasty and it wasn't banned until the 18th century (!) so after basically 11 centuries before the Brits and Portuguese had the brilliant idea to think it would be a lucrative opportunity and decided on the "Opium Wars". But.. China's propaganda always recounts events differently and pretends largely like China was this innocent flower who had never heard of opium until the evil Europeans arrived and corrupted the heavenly peoples of East Asia and fought wars to make everyone an addict all of the sudden. Meanwhile actual historical accounts sound a lot more like opium use was already routine and ingrained in Chinese society and culture long before Europeans ever set foot in China.So basically, in a nutshell, China has been lying through its teeth all this time while it flooded the United States and Europe with fentanyl and other synthetic opiates and is now poisoning and cutting this junk into basically all drugs its trafficks around the world based on lies.Thoughts?

>>541302687>China was this innocent flower who had never heard of opium until the evil Europeans arrived and corrupted the heavenly peoples of East Asia and fought wars to make everyone an addict all of the sudden.IDK anything about China in this era so I can't say but this attitude does arouse my skepticism. I guess it fits in a little too neatly with other narratives about the evils of colonialism, some of which are well-known to be myths.
>>541302687It was the Jews, per usual
>>541302687It was an Iraqi Jew who living in India who started the whole ball rolling .Abdullah Sassoon
>>541303370This definitely seems to have turned into a completely politicized falsification of history and hagiography of Chinese culture, if you ask me.https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6733759/>A Gift from the Buddhist Monastery: The Role of Buddhist Medical Practices in the Assimilation of the Opium Poppy in Chinese Medicine during the Song Dynasty (960–1279)
What is there to think about? Jews/Whites did what theh normally do. Backhanded vile shit. I hope China bleeds UK slowly
>>541303597>>541305862It was actually the jeets. Not even joking.
>>541305941So you’re arguing that China’s chemical or drug warfare is justified by the Opium Wars and the historical revisionism surrounding it?Seems you’re onto something OP, and maybe touched a nerve.
>>541302687It's one of the few countries other than singapore you can get executed for dealing ganja. Methinks you're a lying faggot
>>541302687Keep seethingIn July, China landed its first reusable rocket booster, CZ-10B. The same month, moonshot.ai released Kimi K3, which outperformed even Claude fable on some tasks, and generally outperformed GPT 5.6 Sol. Not long after, deepseek v4 and qwen 3.8 released, both state of the art models that performed at unreasonably low costs. Also in the same month, CXMT went public in the largest IPO in Chinese history, and it quickly became the most valuable company in China, surpassing tencent.In August, the first private Chinese company landed a reusable rocket, Landspace's Zhuque 3. On the same day, unitree filed for IPO and its stock value rose 800% the same day.
>thread getting slid so hard OP resorted to samefaggingsad.. but good thread, I was actually wondering about this the other day
The leading family behind opium production were the Sassoon family of Iraqi Jews, they later married into the Rothschild family. But yes let’s blame white Christians for the opium war and colonization of India.
Morally I don't think any of this compensates for anything. If you were a bartender and one of your regular alcoholics got sober, so you beat him until he agreed to drink again so you could keep making money, you'd be a bad person no matter how long that guy had been drinking or if he'd been drinking at different bars prior to yours.Besides, the fent problem isn't that China's selling it even. America has plenty adequate power to end the practice, it just won't because that's domestic and only affects goyim.
How long have opiates been used in the US, and how long after did we start seeing slow-motion break dancers in the centers of most big cities?I imagine this is a matter of scale.
>>541302687It was European powers forcing China to open up their markets for European products resulting in very bad trade deals for China while they just wanted to be left alone. Opium wars is just a catchy name for it all while the actual opium trade was very small compared to their population
>>541302687I read Tai Pain so Im something of an expert. The Bongs wanted tea but China would only accept silver. Bongs had no silver. So they made a deal with a snealy chink to sell opium from India in exchange for tea. Because the jew was sneaky he then sold the opium for super cheap making it available to everyone, causing an opium crisis.China King got upset and seized the Bong trading town, demanded they stop selling opium. Bong navy laid seige to China King Town and China King had to give up Hong Kong or die.
>>541308915India is making most of the fent and the novel synthetics
>>541310268China was getting it's silver from Spain .. China needed the silver to upgrade the currency for tax collection purposes. Sassoon wanted to corner the cotton trade (which he would later go on to do) but settled for Opium as the trade goods for Chinese goods too keep the merchant ships moving profitably. from West to East
>>541302687During World War I in late 1917, British forces under General Edmund Allenby reportedly airdropped cigarettes laced with opium on Ottoman (Turkish) positions in Palestine during the Third Battle of Gaza. The tactic aimed to induce addiction and render the opposing troops immobile
China calls that era the "Century of Humiliation" and now they want revenge.
>>541302687Yes it was probably worseA gross kike named sasson sold opium to everyone at gun point
Opium is based. Alexander the great would smoke opium in his war tent at night during his campaigns. Marcus Aurelius was high on opium while writing his meditations. Hitler injected oxycodone, meth and cocaine
>>541311537No Hitler didn't you circumcised mutt
>>541311630Yes he did shill. You can read his doctor's meticulously kept notes
>>541302687Yes. Whites (and jew merchants) tried to destroy and enslave China with drugs.
>>541302687As you noted, opium was already consumed in China long before the Europeans arrived. The British, intending to close their widening trade deficit with China, came to control the overseas supply of opium to China, one of the few goods that the Chinese were willing to buy. They increased supply by growing the crop in colonial India and dumping the produce into China, depressing prices and resulting in more people getting addicted. Well, drugs are bad and so the imperial court intervened, but they had a shit navy and lost.

>>541302687>China's Opium Wars psyopsExcuse to kick the British out.Where the tradition of keeping outsiders away stems from. Outsiders meddling in internal affairs. Much like what is happening with the United States.
Opium is good and should be legal.
>>541302687>fentanylOpiates had always been a thing in the US. It's literally the exact same argument.
>>541302687Fucking retard disingenuous faggot. Yes just completely ignore everything about foreign trade and economic warfare. Idiot.
>>541312306for city read 'wealth extraction hub/port'
>>541302687you are right that the fent epidemic is a second opium war
>>541302687>So basically, in a nutshell, China has been lying through its teeth all this timeWhere's the lie? Nobody ever claimed that the Chinx didn't know about opium before the Brits taught them, not even the dumbest chiny nationalist.
Can you be more specific on what you want to know, I've wasted hundreds of hours learning about these two wars
>>541312156Abudullah Sassoon was a treasury/tax collector for the Pasha of Iraq, he was exiled for plotting against the ruling family or siding/funding the enemies of the Pasha .. moved to Bombay trading cotton to the UK .. China did not want British cotton products or anything else but silver, Britain had to protect it's silver because Spain was holding all the silver from South America, Spain traded silver with China because the Emperor had given the order to the Mandarins his subjects now had to pay thier taxes in silver, so China required increasingly large amounts of the shiny. This is why British privateers were rampant in the West Indies intercepting bullion. It's all very complex and interesting.

>>541310748>>541312063The opium wars became a thing because China didn’t desire to buy western goods due to ideological reasons that China is the center of the world and that they had a massive population of artisans who lived on Rice. They didn’t need to buy western textiles or other goods. England and other countries would buy Chinese porcelain, silk, tea, and other goods. China would only accept payment in silver. But China already consumed opium and India already produced a lot. So the UK and to an extent France realized they could just sell them opium and the corrupt Qing government couldn’t do anything to stop them.But the whole century of humiliation thing is copium for how industrially undeveloped China was up until historically recently. Japan looked at what was happening with Europe and China. They came to the conclusion that Europe was powerful because they are industrial powers and had colonies. Japan said, let’s just mostly copy Europe but with a semi state lead approach to forcing modernization and capitalism through zaibatsu family owned conglomerates.

>>541314069Apparently his argument is that Jews can poison goys because reasons, but goys can't fight back because that would be unfrair antisemitism.
>>541315272The women in charge was at the tail end of the shitshow when China was already a ruined dump.I.e., you're confusing cause and effect.
>>541315156> erm we're just proving a service in demand by the goyYou sound like a Jew.Cohencedentally, all those in charge of the British opium trade were also Jews.P.S. The Qing didn't care to modernize because they weren't even Chinese. How the fuck a gang of horse riding nomad barbarians came to rule 19th century China is another can of worms.
>opium entered china more than 1.000 years agoOh so that's why it stagnated and degenerated into a revolting shithole.Say no to drugs. Kill your local dealer.
>>541315156China did see it's self as the centre of the world, but that was changing under the Ming dynasty .. tax reform was at the heart of the silver trade deficithttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_silver_trade_from_the_16th_to_19th_centuries
>>541315664China put a hard clamp on scientific and engineering innovation as well as merchants and banking. This eventually came to bite them in the ass when British Naval ships with cannon and rifleman rocked up to thier harbours and punched them in the face with the latest military tech, purchased with Banking and Merchant money behind them paying for it.
>>541315645I never said the Jews didn’t play a part, but I included reasons why Japan didn’t suffer the same fate and why much of it is Chinese copium. Ultimately, China eventually after a long time became the largest manufacturing power in the world once again. Japan even had treaty ports in China prior to the first Sino-Japanese war. So even by 1871 it shows the disparity between China and Japan.
>>541302687Basically it's this>Opium use in port cities was known, and disliked by non-corrupt officials>British took advantage of it, sponsoring dens, pushing drugs in every way possible>Officials banned it for public good>British attacked since it was now a major source of revenue>British BTFO'd and basically enforced the free sale of Opium while also gaining Hong Kong.
