Heat Owner Micky Arison, for example, has more than $375 million invested in China with his collaboration with China State Shipbuilding Corp., a company that is working with Arison’s Carnival Cruise business and a co. that is deeply connected to the Chinese military.
In other words, Arison is deep in bed with a company that is building warships for the Chinese military, ships intended to destroy America’s navy, and ships that Chinese leaders intend to use to invade U.S. ally Taiwan. The Chinese company is also on a list of those sanctioned by the U.S. government.
Meanwhile, hypocrite Arison claims to be a “human rights activist.”
“James spoke out against Moray and called him “uneducated””
Moray graduated from Highland High School in Medina, Ohio[2] before receiving a bachelor’s degree in computer science with an emphasis on statistics from Northwestern University in 1996,[3] as well as an MBA from the MIT Sloan School of Management.
James played basketball for St. Vincent–St. Mary High School in his hometown of Akron, Ohio
Ah, yes.. Warner Tard Huston.
I remember when he got laughed off the forum.
Good times.

I mean NBA isn’t all that after the Bird/Magic and then the Jordan Era. It doesn’t appeal to me anymore.
For all I care they could move the league to China. I wouldn’t miss it one little bit.
I don’t call it ‘investing’ when the CCP could seize your property for any or no reason.
“invested”? Umm, kinda like the mRNA jabs are vaccines?
In earlier (more honest) times it would have been called a bribe. Like Solyndra was. Pour tons of dosh into a “company” ‘cause: 1) if you don’t you don’t get to play for the CCP (Jump monkey, jump!) and 2) a cut of that comes back to all involved. In the meantime, since every company based in China is controlled by the CCP, they get their cut, too.
Investing with the CCP, any aspect of it, would be like Jews investing in the Nazi party — “They wouldn’t hurt us, we are their workers!”
There is apparently no limit to stupidity.
I would love to see China suddenly push a native sport wiping out this investment like they are doing to Hollywood with homegrown Chinese movies beating out the latest woke superhero movies. Why watch Lebron when you can watch Chang, the table tennis star.
