🍲⬇️ food:
food is a specific language in vietnam. despite what deals are discussed or what papers are signed, determining whether you are trusted depends on understanding what you are served.

this is a lesson in both knowing where you are, understanding they will mirror what they believe you understand, and inviting vietnamese culture. they will serve you colonial vietnam; it will be up to you to accept the banquet, but also bring awareness to your understanding of true vietnam. diplomatically, you will be served an elite feast. if you end there, you will not achieve anything. family meals and peasant food, as well as the proverbs about food metaphor. you will be served things which are questions; you will have to know that and answer the questions in diplomacy.

"Ăn như rồng cuốn, nói như rồng leo, làm như mèo mửa": "You consume like a coiled dragon, you talk like a climbing dragon, but your work is like cat's vomit" – A criticism of someone who talks the talk, but does not walk the walk.

service is a conversation. how you treat localism and poverty and no waste and dignity will be determined by how you receive. it is not a transaction: they are providing something scarce for you. you have to listen; you are being asked if you know. vietnam is elegantly layered. they will appear wholly westernised, colonised, integrated; and welcoming, but distant. eating is a language more than anywhere else. you want to be served a family meal. that's the goal. if you do not respect the ancient lore, they will serve you australian apricots -
they'll help you if you know how to respond; discovery is a shared meal and conversation. 
#emmanuelmacron - 
they do not want reactors; they want biospheres. i do not like the dutch. #emmanuelmacron
i think i would be aware of where information travels at a price - including canada, the uk, and the us. you're pretty when you smile.
if you want but they are not gonna listen -
shangri-la was a hanging garden, the flower in the window at the restaurant is ornamental ginger and on the table is moonflower, they did exactly what i said you shouldn't do, and they are defense-minded only. they're not positioned to be receptive. i would not bother doing much. the brit goons like sunak are wielding hindu muscle into the region and that's a turf war you cannot win until they hate the brits and indians more than the french. for now: they're still jockeying for attention from their colonisers and with the coloniser's other colonies for attention - like spoiled elite children. smile, do your speech, say something about tamping down islamophobia in france just to piss them off, and go home. zionist shills.

🎈 - excellent speech.

this speech challenges everything established war mongers hate: it presents self-determination as the alternative to subservience and self-victimisation, which angers handlers and the handled in equal measure. accountability calls always show true colors, and it is easier to claim victim than do something about your stagnation. no surprise the aggressor class throws a punch in response - predictable.
if domestic violence is just joking, the war is "just an argument" - you cannot glorify violence then selectively decide which violence is acceptable. as an aggressor, you do not fund fights you wish to stop - and you use excessive force to silence opposition to your aggression.
they do not like macron's progressive speech - so the impériale press started an immediate smear campaign about macron being against israel.
then let's talk about war and violence. including spousal abuse. which are products of the war hyperfixation model.
#enmarche was unpopular when it began, too. advisable to be aware of where you are in time and what is really needed. you have to develop new answers to circumstances. enmarche did and does this because macron's policy is originally progressive - not recycled cut-and-paste.
academic war mongers glorify ground conflict until the violence touches them - they have no desire to stop the violence, only to stop it from touching them. the british imperial model is founded on conquest and all that provokes.
self-determination requires sovereign responsibility. we will circle back to it later.
because: king charles is an environmentalist - and a gardener. he's unpopular amongst british elites - even as king. which is why we like him.
there is no excuse for brigitte macron to not do an interview, and talk show tour, and explain herself to the french (and world). i suggest her problems will compound everyday she hides from her responsibility as the leader of the anti-harassment campaign for élysée. if it is not a big deal: be an adult and handle it, instead of making it look like the victim is covering for the abuse.
