US Efforts to Contain Xi’s Push for Tech Supremacy Are Faltering
"China has achieved a global leadership position in five key technologies. That means the world outside the US is increasingly driving Chinese electric vehicles, scrolling the web on Chinese smartphones and powering their homes with Chinese solar panels. For Washington, the risk is that policies aimed at containing China end up isolating the US — and hurting its businesses and consumers."
It was expected. Read Comrade Lenin to understand what is happening today. For example, "Imperialism as the highest stage of capitalism."
The transition from an industrial economy to an economy of dog hairdressers, waiters and Facebook will inevitably lead to technological backwardness. Which is exactly what is happening.
Also, I am greatly amazed at the dementia of Western and pro-Western political elites. For example, the US has made every effort to bring Russia and China closer together (the former has the best weapons, decades ahead of all other weapons, and is the richest country with natural resources. The latter is the world's first economy with advanced technological programs). What the west was doing this for, in terms of western interests, is a mystery.
Also other pro western alliance countries with brainless political elite. For example, Israel. For its own money it actually created an enclave of Muslim terrorists on the territory of Syria near its borders, who already now declare that they will wage an irreconcilable war with the Jews. Or Turkey, also for their money created a wide Kurdish formation, which is irreconcilably set against Turkey.
In general, the West is run by idiots. It is enough to look at the problem of Europe and migrants.
Where is Roosevelt? Where is Churchill? Where are De Gaulle and Mitterrand? Western politicians' brains have disappeared like an atavism. Soon the tail will start to grow.
At some point, Europe will decide that following the US over the cliff is a bad idea. First it will be Eastern and Central Europe, but finally it will be the whole EU as the bureaucrats in Brussels are replaced. After Europe, Japan and South Korea will go.
Eventually, it will be the US and Israel out in the cold together.

Date: 19/12/24 20:03 (UTC)The whole war is justified by the fig leaf of protecting “ethnic Russians”, and reclaiming part of the “motherland”. If they dropped a nuke it would irradiate civilians regardless of ethnicity, especially a really dirty one that corrupted precious farmland for some length of time. How would that play back home? Could the regime control the media well enough to suppress all knowledge of it?
