    The lion’s share of progress isn’t happening in the West. It’s reforms happening in East Asia and new cleaner development happening in Latin America and Africa.

    Western states are hobbled by legacy infrastructure they refuse to replace. What progress they have made has been driven by cheap imports. And they’re going to halt those imports to protect legacy industry

      Can western states start stealing eastern IP and marketing it now?

      If the tables have turned, it makes sense if genocide Joe is genociding those Palestinians, China finished with their uighur ‘issue’ and the poor destitute west only knows how to copy moves from the ‘big glorious leaders’ in the east 🤡

        You think we haven’t been, already?

        What is the Rafa of Xinjiang?

        Beijing sends in construction workers and factory managers and Mandarin teachers, and westerners call it genocide. Tell Aviv sends bombers to demolish hospitals and snipers to double tap relief workers, and we send cops to cave your face in when you object.

        Go back and review the Hong Kong riots. Compare them to Columbia and UCLA.

        If Tianamen happened in DC today, the news media would call the guy in front of the tank a Russian antisemite and the tank commander a pussy for failing to flatten him.

          What a tasty boot!

          lmao, loving the downvotes for calling out literal genocide denial. Stay classy.

            calling out literal genocide denial

            The Americans invaded Afghanistan and kicked off a flood of refugees over the Chinese border. We dropped thousand pound bombs to flatten whole villages when we suspected a member of the Taliban was in residence. And we conducted this butchery for decades, killing 12-year-old boys while labeling them “Fighting Age Males”. Turning school children into prostitutes to satisfy the baser instincts of our occupying military and allied warlords. Crushing a son’s testicles to extort confessions from his father.

            And we never thought to call it genocide.

            When Beijing invests billions in the industrialization of its most rural provinces? That’s where we draw the line.

            Who is licking boot again?

        Are we selling weapons for China to genocide Uighurs with?
