The China Update guy, Tony, spelled it out in a recent video, apologizing for the hyperbolic thumbnails that he doesn’t write, and can’t remove without his posts sinking out of sight.

The yellow screaming and arrows turn me right off, so I miss things, I am sure. Thanks again.

It’s encouraging to think Japan is standing up for international order.
