A pineapple has "many eyes, it sees the opportunity ahead and faster than others" in Chinese culture.
?? Theory ??
Digging a little into possible meanings of yesterday's tweet from Pompeo and came across this:
Chinese Pineapple Symbolism Over the years doing this project, I’ve talked to many amazing people. One day, I learned about pineapple symbolism in Chinese culture. What does it mean?
The pineapple is a symbol of good luck! Because of its many eyes, it sees the opportunity ahead and faster than others.
Could this relate to the current political situation between Taiwan and China?
Thanks for the sticky mods!
I'm thinking the pineapple trade war is a better theory now, though. Maybe it's a twofer.
