    Fact: you have sex with goats. It’s a fact because I said it is.

    Do you now see why it’s important to have independent verification of facts, especially when the source might be biased? Do you get it now, goatfucker?

      Last I checked, there’s no SEC filing indicating that I have sex with goats. The evidence is literally public.

          The article literally cites the report. The fact that people are too lazy to look it up before discarding the article is, frankly, disappointing. SCMP literally pulled public numbers from public reports and TOLD YOU EXACTLY WHERE THEY GOT THOSE NUMBERS.

          Nobody in these comments has tried to disprove any statement that the article contains, because they can’t.

            No one can read the article because of the paywall. And the link to that report isn’t in the two paragraphs they let me read.

            But by all means, go off.

              SCMP has been very reliable in this article (as I demonstrated in my other comment, where I follow their sources and find numbers that match them plus/minus forex differences). In the future, I’ll be citing this as evidence of SCMP’s factual reporting.

              Edit: FWIW, I cited the relevant claim way up in the comment section, so you don’t even need to read the article to see it.
