“The Other Great Wall”, late 19th century Tags:Europe 15 comments AKA the wall we actually need east of Donbass Didn’t most of these powers cooperate in stuff like putting down the boxer rebellion and the opium wars? Given the chubby, smug depiction of China, I feel like this might be more anti-Chinese than anti-Russian. for a second i thought it just said ‘FUCK’ at the top. Over a century later and one wonders why Russia wants security guarantees. Which county is just chilling in the background?? Good luck taking down the bear, lol. I’m not sure the Chinese were *particularly* happy about about these defenders either. How the tables have turned! Now Russia is China’s ally while all the so-called defenders are gearing up to confront China as enemies. It seems to me that this is a 1901 (or 1902) cartoon from the American satirical magazine Puck source: [https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=umn.31951002801286s&view=1up&seq=197](https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=umn.31951002801286s&view=1up&seq=197) Is that Mickey Mouse at the far end? Extreme cringe detected Who can believe it ？ WTF is that last country in the row, Disneyland? But it says “The latest Chinese wall” on the bottom!
