Real talk, I take comfort in knowing that the high tech future we were promised at the turn of the millennium isn't dead after all, it's just happening in China
Not a nationalist, I find this a terrifying thought, but 100%. Unless action is actually taken in the U.S., I don't think the West stands a chance. China is already in a much stronger position than I think many Westerners realize, they made tremendous gains during the last Trump presidency. If Trump really does cling to power for the rest of his life, I think we'll see a world where SA, SEA, Africa and parts of Europe are all completely economically reliant on China.
As if it wasn't like that with USA too
I don't think it'll be as bad as mentioned
No thanks, replacing one imperialist for another won't help the world.
