You would think that people learn when the same thing happens multiple times in a row but apparently not. Until then, China will continue to achieve strategic surprise by loudly declaring exactly what it will do.Redditards have a meme: "China warns", meaning China is all talk.
Yeah, China warns... until it doesn't.
I'm really starting to get annoyed with all those muh birthrate doomer videos on Korea and Japan. One came up in my YouTube feed. I'm beginning to think it's a western psyop.
I watched that video on how it said south Korea was doomed and I expected to see a lot of details but in the end it's just muh birth rate crap.
Don't get me wrong, low birth rates are a bad thing. But it's pretty much a global problem when even India has below replacement rate.
What I expected the video to include was stuff like how China took Korea's lunch yet little was mentioned. The amount is not exaggerated. According to the data provided by AI, China has eaten into industries related to shipbuilding, steel, electronics, cars and even semiconductors. Per the semiconductor thread, Samsung electronics is actually in trouble which I didn't think was possible. It's a significant amount too which cannot be ignored. Yet it was not mentioned.
When I only hear birthrates and not stuff from above, I begin to wonder about the honesty of it all. Same for Japan except it's even worse coz America neutered them with plaza accords and crushed their semiconductor industry yet they didn't mention it much and just blame birth rates.
When the west puts so much attention on Japan/Korea having low birthrates while not saying much on how they themselces had low birthrates for decades, I get suspicious. Also you have to wonder if this stuff will even work like they said since we know Ireland had a population collapse and France had a below replacement rate in the 19 century for quite a while. Yet those places are still alive to annoy us.
Again birth rates are a problem. But I feel there is a ulterior motive when they say put all your attention on them and not all the other stuff. Even with the birthrate stuff they don't mention much stuff like how many people can't even get stable well paying jobs or a house first before even considering settling down for kids. Is it because this will expose a much bigger problemvm that hits the nerves of a lot more people? From the big short movie they quoted an older studying saying every 1% increase in unemployment in the US leads to around 40,000 more deatha stemming from related factors. Maybe it's not THAT bad today but I'm pretty sure it has a rather nasty impact.
China doesn't warn US that often. It usually simply punches. The economic/diplomatic losses US got fighting China is possibly the single largest damage from sanctions alone without military conflict in history.Redditards have a meme: "China warns", meaning China is all talk.

Rubio, in Europe, says US has to 'reset the global order of trade' and Trump is 'absolutely right to do it'
Secretary of State Marco Rubio vowed Friday that the U.S. has "to reset the global order of trade" and that President Donald Trump is "absolutely right to do it."
Rubio, speaking at NATO headquarters in Brussels, made the remark after taking issue with a reporter’s claim that world economies are "crashing" in the wake of Trump’s "Liberation Day" tariffs.
"We have to be a country to think we're the largest consumer market in the world, and yet the only thing we export is services, and we need to stop that," Rubio said. "We need to get back to a time where we are a country that can make things, and to do that, we have to reset the global order of trade."
"So the president rightly has concluded that the current status of global trade is bad for America and good for a bunch of other people. And he's going to reset it, and he's absolutely right to do it," Rubio added.
The secretary of state said the "worst thing" the U.S. could do is leave the global trade system "the way it is forever."
"I mean, this is, just can't continue. We can't continue to be a country that doesn't make things. We have to be able to make things to provide jobs for Americans... it’s that simple," he said. "China, as an example. I mean, it's outrageous. I mean, they don't consume anything. All they do is export and flood and distort markets in addition to all the tariffs and barriers they put in place."
Rubio added, "If you're a company and you make a bunch of your products in China and all of a sudden shareholders or people that play the stock market realize that it's going to cost a lot more to produce in China, your stock is going to go down, but ultimately the markets, as long as they know what the rules are going to be moving forward, and as long as you can sustain where you're going to be, the markets will adjust."
"Businesses around the world, including in trade and global trade, they just need to know what the rules are. Once they know what the rules are, they will adjust to those rules," he said. "So I don't think it's fair to say economies are crashing. Markets are crashing because markets are based on the stock value of companies who today are embedded in modes of production that are bad for the United States."
