Is there an effort to discredit CN of their "cultural or traditional influences" in east asia?

yes, it’s what’s called an “all of society response against China” as espoused by Kiron Skinner of the USG. You see manifestations of such attempts to undermine Chinese cultural influence by pushes by western propagandists at claiming that China as a concept is only new and that China as a polity never existed. It’s basically an Israeli Anglo Zionist example of transference because Hebrew is a constructed language and modern Jews are not descended from Bronze Age Israelites (but Palestinians are).

Yeah, agree.

Game Theory is just another form of imperialism, they try to make you play the game their way, when they believe they have escalation dominance.

Since someone outside of the West, is using Game Theory, then that people knows they can only go so far, this is basically imperialism.

China, Russia, they go ahead and just make some moves. No one cares about that Game Theory.

yep, it’s like the Americans wanting to draw up “guidelines“ to constrain China whilst they keep bending those guidelines. Agreeing to such terms is akin to inviting a demon into your home.

That's under the assumption that the only game being played is between the US and China. If the model treats the interactions of factions around the globe as a dense or complete graph, where every faction has a match with every other faction, the 2 player zero-sum state collapses. You can see this in the multipolar world efforts.

Each game between unique pairs of players can be as confrontational or as cooperative as they desire. Ultimately, the net reward matters more than any single iterated game between two players. Tit-for-tat is consistently one of the strategies that has the highest net reward.

I dunno man, if comrade Trump loses the election, we might see Elon Musk immigrate to China. According to rumors he's already got a Chinese green card and a luxury property in Beijing.

Sinicization of 21st century barbarian tribes so that they become positive contributors to Chinese civilization, who says China's lost its ways? Lol.

Though I imagine Elon would love the upgrade. He moved out of shithole California to Texas where yeah, he doesn't have to pay as much taxes but its hot and humid as hell, infrastructure's just as bad, and there's nothing to do.

The US thinks if they don't call something what it is then it isn't it. It's as simple as that. The trouble the US has with peddling China as the threat they want the world to see is because it's a threat to white supremacy they're trying to sell without saying it. What is China doing that's universally seen as a threat to the world? Nothing. Everything they point out is either not a threat when the US and the West does it or it's something the West is a hypocrite when pointing the finger. The US supports genocide by Israel so it's laughable they think they can point to genocide in Xinjiang as worse. It's hard for the US to get its message across when China isn't invading another country killing people or committing genocide by the real definition of the word like the US's ally Israel is doing.

Unlike how they want everyone to believe, Westerners are as a mortal as everyone else. If their supremacy is assured because of genetics or because their God supports them, they have nothing to worry about. But they are worried hence why they hate China and everyone else that doesn't stop to worship Westerners as Gods. They know they're mortal too hence why they worried over why aren't "other people" doing something against China for them. Are you going to sacrifice your life for what someone else wants when something like mortality gets in the way?

This might be a weird question but does the stereotype of indians smelling worse than other type of people have some truth in it?

It appears that Moldovans have voted against adding EU membership plans to their constitution. Opposition presidential candidate has also performed much better than polls have predicted which means that current pro-West president Maia Sandu will have to square off against him in the run off vote.

If Moldovans and Georgians end up rejecting EU/West in their respective elections, that would be a pretty huge W for Russia.

From Wiki:

Alexandr Stoianoglo - candidate of Party of Socialists of the Republic of Moldova, Ideology: Democratic socialism (self-described), Socialism, Social conservatism, Moldovenism, Russophilia, Euroscepticism
Renato Usatîi - candidate of Our Party (Moldova), Ideology: Populism, Russophilia ,Social conservatism, Soft Euroscepticism
Irina Vlah - independent candidate. "In her announcement speech she criticized closer ties between Moldova and NATO and increased defense spending and stated Moldova must be "neutral." She has also stated that it necessary to "maintain ties with the CIS countries, for the benefit of our businesses and compatriots".
Victoria Sturm - independent candidate, doesn't have a Wiki page, but certain articles refer to her as a proxy of Ilan Shor

Things are not looking good for the pro-West camp.

Some of those candidates are probably there to split the vote of the major anti-EU candidates.

I am not sure its a win once you understand the New Europe.
These countries may reject there European course because much less Europhile remaining in there countries due to emigration and Russia has become much more wealthy and attractive and now Putin is advertising it but when Putin made this statement he was specifically talking to the two journalists from Saudi and UAE. Putin management style is such that he hide things. when Kadyrov was displaying his wealth in younger days he was telling people that it comes from Allah. thats why Russia statistics are one thing but reality different and these Orthodox Christian countries may not fully fit into Russian system to benefit from it.

Imagine trying to convince people that US college students gain "critical thinking skills" like we don't see how almost all of them are complete dumbasses on any social network of your choosing.
