Is Chess is even worth following nowadays? Magnus Carlsen is a beast. Ding Liren or Gukesh will never beat that guy. Ding earned his title because Carlsen simply doesn't give shit and decline to defend.

Angela Merkel was already the start of the decline. She put Germany into a state of paralysis while other economies like the US and China pulled ahead.
Construction and mining labor... lol. Often they are begging on the street. The ones which do work regular jobs you will likely find in sales, trading, or something like that. A lot of them are merchants of some sort. Gypsies doing heavy labor. Nice joke.
Calling them an European ethnic group is also kind of interesting since they originally came from India and migrated to Europe centuries ago. They have admixed and converted to Roman Catholicism in that time. But a lot of them never quite adjusted. The main reason because they often don't bother sending their children to school to get educated unless they are forced to. Do you expect people with poor literacy and maths knowledge to get well paid jobs?
The EU sure has a strange way of doing this. By sending most of their state funding to companies like Intel or TSMC so they can have chip fabs in the EU. So much for getting an "independent" supply.
EU knew for long time that they cannot compete. What they want is protect Western hegemony and US is seen as "Western". They are happy being the second fodder as long as their master is on the top. That's how they guarantee some of their benefits.
It is just pathetic. For example someone mentioned VW and Horizon Robotics. One their main businesses in the EU is making cars for export. So how come they do not have their own self-driving chips?
Instead of funding that, the EU spend bazillions several years back supposedly to try to make a synthetic emulation of the human brain. That is how retarded they are.

Nice goldmine you got there, would be a shame if something were to happen to it if my companies can’t profit from it.
America has always been a mafia state, only difference is that before it followed the gangster rules and so could be worked with. Now it’s going out of its way to become the hate fuelled unreasonable, irrational old thug who cannot be reasoned with and who forces the reluctant hero to destroy them by leaving the hero no other option other than surrender and death.
How is Magnus Carlsen a beast if he is hiding from competition?
Going a bit off topic.. when Japanese cars entered the American market, the fear was of foreign competition. But America still had a decent chance to compete with it's domestic cars. In today's case though with Chinese EV's, American manufacturers don't have anything at all to really compete. Tesla doesn't count because it's on the luxury-end, not something the average consumer can afford. An $11,000 BYD Seagull is more accessible than any petrol/diesel car in America, forget EV.
It looks like to me that the US is waiting for it's domestic manufacturers to come up with something similar to have even somewhat of a level playing field. But that "coming up" just isn't happening.
He is not hiding from competition. He is just bored as hell due to being the world champion for 10 years and because Ding and other competitors sucks. Magnus just beat Ding 3-0 in last June. Ding is world champion in name only.
