I hear what you are saying, Dave, but in my social circles calling someone a dog is unheard of.

Just think about it. To first call one a "dog" is to justify harsh treatment later.

We call a car a bit of a dog if we dont particuluarly like it as in the publication "Dogs & Lemons";a critical
look at cars that don't perform.As you can gather from my posts, I'm quite liberal in language but
I take offence from this one.

While I appreciate your harmless "doggie" tag, it also has a seroius pejorative meaning which the
Chinese would have been well aware of, and, for that reason , The Chinese ought not have used it
in diplomic language. This insult quickly followed the "gum on the heel" metaphor.
Would that be the heel of a Jackboot, perchance?

While western leaders like Trump and Morrison come and go, the Chinese regime is there for much longer
and, consequentially, silence on this matter by the CCP implies support, given the willingness of the regime
to promptly correct the record when it deems fit!
