Europe and USA are addicted to cheap Chinese goods.

Soon China will take over Taiwan.
Europe and America can no longer stand against China because they are addicted to cheap Chinese goods/products.
Europe and America cannot sanction China because high inflation will affect Europe and America and there will be a shortage of goods. China is self-sufficient and sanctions will be ineffective.
Europe and America slept and lost.

Josep Borrell: (High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy)

I see [that] the international system, that we were accustomed to after the Cold War, no longer exists. America has lost its status of a hegemon. And the post-1945 multilateral [world] order is losing ground.

I see – as you know - China rising to the super-power status. What China has done in the last 40 years is unique in the history of humankind. In the last 30 years, China’s share of the world’s GDP, at PPP, has gone from 6% to almost 20%, while we, Europeans, went from 21% to 14% and the United States from 20% to 15%. This is a dramatic change of the economic landscape.

Look at the Middle East. Who benefits from Israel-Hamas or Israel-Iran war? China and Russia.
China and Russia laugh at America and Europe.

Do you see those in Europe and America who will lead and solve this problem? Biden? Macron? Or Sunak?No, they are weak and cannot.
 
Well, that's what giving freedom to corporations is all about. If the Us government is going to tell them they can't do business in China (or Vietnam etc), then they'll all cry "Socialism!" If the Us government tries to tax Us companies for doing that business, you can bet they'll be lobbying hard against whatever party does it. So you'll have to come up with a solution that gets around this other than "America weak hurr durr"

Suppose for a moment you are right? Suppose that China and Russia are laughing. What effect are you hoping to cause by making these statements. Someone is ineffective and someone is laughing, so what? I'm having coffee and it tastes really good. Am I supposed to jump up and down somehow?

Hey, looks like a Jinping Punk have joined up with the two Putin Punks. All we need now is a Jong Un Jizzer and they can all form up a barber shop quartet and sing patriotic people's songs to Trump's minions about how their benevolent totalitarian leaders will crush the imperialist hegemonic decadent expansionist capitalist hooligan western dogs into submission. yay

lol Russia is definitely not laughing. They thought they could sweep in and take Ukraine in no time in a relatively bloodless war. Several years and several hundred thousand dead and wounded later…

If anything the world is laughing at Russia, or would be if the results of their stupidity weren’t so awful. Turns out the Russian army is as big of a joke as the rest of that degenerate country.

This is one of the funniest posts I've seen today! Thanks for the laugh 🙂

Oh, and just for funzies, China is also addicted to cheap chinese goods - their economy would drop like a rock if they stopped selling them to the western world. LOLZ!

What do you think of the looming demographic crisis for China?

I Agree. Thank you
 
Shervan, hello, you make some good points in some respects though you will face some backlash here. People on this forum don't like any country that can challenge American hegemony.

Just curious, are you from the Caspian region?
 
Sadly he's not wrong.. we lost when we elected Trump.

I have no idea how the fuck we overcome those 4 years and counting of treason!

Biden's atleast trying to fix the problem but plenty like MTG prove the OP correct every fucking day.

Remember math.. least common denominator.. MTG is the LCD.

Devils Advocate: That is exactly why he is wrong.

Electing Trump and certified morons like MTG.... Treasonous morons like Trump and MTG, is exactly proof that you are indeed living in a democracy. Imagine a certified dumbass like Trump challenging Putin in Russia. How would that go down?

As we've come to witness, a society and military complex built on autocracy and corruption is just no match for it's democratic counterpart - as fucked up as it might look at times.

Touche!
 
-Except the ones from their handlers...

All these troll accounts waking up right on schedule for the 2024 elections...

To be fair, some are probably just returning banned members or mults. There's like a handful of right wing losers that keep doing that. Which, it really doesn't matter if its bots, new trolls, new ignorant fools, or those from my first sentence, they're functionally all the same and offer nothing worth interacting with.

Best thing is to just ignore them to starve them of the attention they need. Often they're actively seeking negative attention to fuel hatred which is what they need to keep their bubble of ignorance from bursting.

China is fucked if Europe and the USA don't buy their manufactured goods.

Bingo, that goes both ways. There's a reason why China and Russia really don't actually directly poke the West, because they're dependent on them as well.
