China and the USA are locked in a parasitic relationship, both going down and they cannot let go of the other.

Xi actually thinks he can try and move away from the USA now, and the delusional managerial class in D.C. thinks they can just play pretend and make the chinks play ball.

No its not parasitic. China got good pr during the 2000 s. And hey during the 1990-2000 you had a billion plus work force that would work for cheap.

The Chinese do alot of assembly work, but their value add isn't really that great. America does about 12 % of its gdp in forgien trade and half of that is with Mexico and Canada

The US doesn't need China and fuck China is kissing that billion strong work force to its population aging

What's interesting to me about China, is they don't export their media culture overseas. However the West has a lock on global media. US/Japan/South Korea.

Doesn't it seem weird I have to have to dig to find out what 1.4 BILLION people are watching?

Until the guy is black and the girl is wearing a thong and tube-top that reads "BLACK LIVES MATTER!" that show would NEVER be shown in America.

"Conservative small town poisoned; Democrats most affected."

The article keeps saying that it's only a "perception" that shitlibs don't give a fuck about rural people, not an irrefutable fact. It chaps my ass how they act like anyone who has a problem with them is imagining things.

The way you talk about him, you make it sound like you want ANOTHER Bin Laden.

I doubt that. I think Tucker has reached martyr icon status among the MAGA crowd. If anything is done to him, it'll be seen as an attack from the enemy. Even if Tucker is worried and believes in deep states and body counts, he has to know his worth and can easily shift into voice of the dissidents (which you can already argue he is).

You mean the feeling there was during the height of the lockdowns?



TBH, I think the real thing that'll happen will be what I've said before: Most will just let everything burn down because there's nothing worth fighting for or defending, and then when hellfire consumes it all, go back and build on the ashes. It's how you get shit like people leaving states like California, why cops in places like Portland and Seattle and MSP will just put in for their retirements as early as they get and why their respective departments struggle to get new officers.

It's very much a "they made their bed, now lie in it" scenario. The only issue is that the fire burns VERY slowly, probably too slowly for some folks' liking.

America really needs to be humbled and stop meddling in other countries. Every US war in the past 70 years was a war for regime change and all it has done is piss people off and they go off and choose people that are actively hostile to the US like the Ayatollah to Bin Laden to Sisi. Then the US goes surprised Pikachu face when they get attacked.

I'm amazed that a group of anarchists could stage a coup at a construction group for a police training unit in a metropolitan city with no federal government response. Add insult to injury, they'll just get a slap on the wrist.

Meanwhile, you hear non stop coverage about J6 for two years straight. There's no justice in this country.

that only happens when the upper class gets hurt
terrorists just seem to go after civilians, and the politicians don't give a shit
they just see it as an excuse to start another war

the people screaming "death to america" and the like don't realize that their actions only fuel the monster they hate

And the US is getting weaker. Angry goat herders chased the US out not because they had better weapons or more manpower, but because they were too angry at globohomo to give up. Drunk Vatniks beat the US's proxy harder than a redheaded stepchild and all the US can do is whine about how unfair it is that the proxy they set up to fight are losing.

Oh thats easy.

The Chinese censors or really the ccp system operates in state of everything is a crime or isn't depending on who gets embarrassed.

Let's say a member puts together a celebration of Xi. As way to suck up to him and Xi responds with you were mocking me weren't you?

Let's say China tries to weaponize it's media like anime or k pop. Then they would have to make the product and making shit that is consistent with the party rules is impossible

There was a Chinese version of YouTuber who made videos showing how with some simple ingredients like flavoring and food color you can make fake dishes

He was implying becareful where and what you eat.

This upset people and soo weibo was asking him to make other videos. He posted what weibo told him and fucked off.

In short making good media when the ptb ask you how does this media make TPB look good?

Entertainment media, no. News media? Yes. WaPo and NYT have been caught republishing CCP state propaganda numerous times.

Couple that with how much they own in tech via Tencent. They don't really need to export entertainment, because they have the market cornered on everything else.
