Ten Days of Yangzhou

After 25 days of fierce battles, Yangzhou was captured by the Manchus. To punish the people who defended the city, the Manchus did what the Mongols had done centuries earlier in many towns, and what the Japanese would do centuries later in Nanjing – they carried out a systematic massacre of the city’s inhabitants over a span of ten days, known as the “Ten Days of Yangzhou (扬州十日)”.

At the time, Italian missionary Martino Martini (1614-1661) was in China and documented what he knew: the Tartars stacked the bodies on the rooftops and set fire to the houses and the entire city.

Similar carnages happened all over China, and it’s estimated that at least half the population was wiped out. On top of that, they killed millions of Chinese men who refused to shave their heads and adapt Manchu’s pathetic pigtail hairdo.

Some say the Manchus are now Chinese citizens, so the invasion and massacres 400 years ago should just be seen as part of a civil war. Try say that to Native Americans, and try say that to Aboriginal Australians. READ MORE

Three Body Problem

The best TV adaptation of the Chinese sci-fi novel

There could be two opposing groups among the Trisolarans. One wants to conquer the Earth by force, the other prefers to control the world via finance. But their goal is the same: to declare themselves Brahma on this planet and treat human beings as their slaves, even bugs, whose land can be confiscated and whose lives can be deprived at their will.

These highly manipulative and cold-blooded creatures are not compatible with the human civilisation that is going to grace the Earth on a global scale in a few decades. Only one of them can thrive: humanity or Trisolarans.
