No. This is real history of China. Its how Qin Shi Huang became the first imperial emperor.

However it would be a prime example of violence does solve many things as espoused by the novel. Fighting bugs is just the background. The whole point of starship troopers is basically trying to justify military rule and it's view.

Even the dumbed down movie that got panned originally is getting critical reassessment now because people are realizing, oh so that whats it was trying to say.

I doubt it will actually cost half the price to build an NPP in Kazakstan by China vs Russia.
I think the difference in price is because China expects to be able to build it faster.
Russia built the Belarussian NPP in 9 years while China built the NPP in Pakistan in 6 years. So I expect China to be able to make it 33% cheaper.
But then again the plant in Pakistan did not have cooling towers. It was cooled by the ocean. Those easily will add time and expense to the build.

Twice the price is about right now. i will even go further Russian nuclear reactor exports will become basically zero if Russia fully implement its new domestic Nuclear plan simultaneously which is tied to building plants in many different places.

Ya ya ya and then another democrat comes into power to replace trump and suddenly all these countries western aligned ones all instantly flip and say how wonderful the US is. Did people forget what happened from trump to Biden?

Such views are worthless. The view that is important is your country starts showing China respect regardless of who the leader is.

How did India learn to piss off the West and China at the same time? Pretty damn impressive. It is a pretty low-hanging fruit to bide your time, play all sides, win in the long-term... Apparently only China excels in this 'do nothing, win' art form.

India is playing a losing game.

Whole world has by now realized how China managed to sneak in US Hegemon's shadow and become what it is now

There is like 0 chance the West will allow India to do the same. They would rather quickly move to compromise with China than allowing India to rise

Much better to share a cake between two parties than between 3 parties

Well, if you think using the Indian way or an Indian brain, then all they did seem to be very "normal and standard". This is why we find it stange.

There has been recent discussion among the mod team to raise the professionalism and post quality across this forum.

This kind of casual nation bashing/racism is unwelcomed, even in these less aggressively moderated clubroom threads
