They can’t hide the truth forever. Believe it or not, boomers are mortal and will die. Once the millennials and gen z, who are redpilled to a certain degree, take over things will change for sure.

Pretty much. Its a very "third world" and gaudy mentality to have. Thats why every outsider doesn't see India as some superpowah except India itself because it can't see itself in a mirror. The way it acts is not that of a top 5 largest economy.
You could say maybe China at one point thought like that. But the thing is China learns fast. Meanwhile its 2025 with internet everywhere from my phone and India still acts this way. I think even poverty stricken SEA nations have made more progress in upgrading their mentality than India.
It isn't realistic for China to take Arunachal Pradesh. Not only will they have to fight a war to capture the territory, but it's nightmare to hold as well. The province is south of the Himalayas and and supply lines to it have to go over the tallest mountain range in the world. Moreover, it is a core interest of India because the territory threatens to cut off the Seven Sisters (I guess it'd be Six Sisters in this case), so there will be incessant war and heightened tensions. Back in 1962, China actually captured this territory but they were faced with the same challenges and figured that it's a better idea to unilaterally withdraw instead of staying to fight.
I imagine that what you propose is going to be China's opening offer, but they'll be willing to settle for Aksai Chin while India keeps Arunachal Pradesh largely along the LAC as long as both parties repudiate the legitimacy of the McMahon Line. India's objective is going to be "Give us everything we want and then we can be friends", which is fine as an opening position, but it tends to be the only thing India is willing to settle for as well.
The problem with this idea is that China doesn't want to pressure India militarily. It had a very good reason to do so during Operation Sindoor, and China never did anything aggressive. The reality is that China is already winning on the geopolitical, economic, and military arenas so the ideal situation anywhere along its borders is peace and stability. Also, India is India's worst enemy already so doing nothing is enitrely sufficient to sabotaging them.
Also, I think that if Taiwan seriously wanted to negotiate reunification, they'd be able to pull off the sweetest deal imaginable. As long as they're willing to concede military control and foreign affairs to Beijing, they might be able to get something on the order of 100-year governmental autonomy.

Very unusual: Heavy GPS jamming along the coast of China, impacting almost all Taiwanese outer islands.
This is incredibly rare - the area is one of the busiest logistical routes globally, through the air and sea.
Edit: A Chinese Wing Loong recon drone is now also operating over the Taiwan Strait.
I'm not sure where this guy is getting his info from

Canada orders China's Hikvision to close Canadian operations
OTTAWA, June 28 (Reuters) - The Canadian government has ordered Chinese surveillance camera manufacturer Hikvision to cease operations in Canada over national security concerns, Industry Minister Melanie Joly said late on Friday.
Hikvision, also known as Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co, has faced numerous sanctions and restrictions by Canada's neighbor, the United States, over the past five and a half years for the firm's dealings and the use of its equipment in China's Xinjiang region, where rights groups have documented abuses against the Uyghur population and other Muslim communities.
"The government has determined that Hikvision Canada Inc's continued operations in Canada would be injurious to Canada's national security," Joly said on X, adding that the decision was taken after a multi-step review of information provided by Canada's security and intelligence community.
Her statement did not mention China or Xinjiang or specify how Hikvision would harm Canada's national security.
"We strongly disagree with this decision and view it with deep concern, as we believe it lacks a factual basis, procedural fairness, and transparency," a Hikvision spokesperson told Reuters.
"Instead of evaluating our technology on its cybersecurity merits, the decision appears to be driven by the parent company's country of origin, reflecting broader geopolitical tensions and an unjustified bias against Chinese companies."
The spokesperson said the company "urges the Canadian government to base its actions on facts rather than prejudice, and to uphold a fair, transparent environment for all businesses and investors."
China's foreign ministry did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The company, which describes itself as the world's biggest maker of video surveillance equipment, said last year it had exited contracts in Xinjiang through five subsidiaries that were added to a U.S. trade blacklist in 2023.
The Chinese government has denied all allegations of human rights abuses in Xinjiang and has criticized or targeted companies for removing Xinjiang firms from their supply chains.
Canada said last year it was reviewing an application to impose sanctions against Chinese surveillance equipment companies, including Hikvision, after rights advocates alleged the firms were aiding repression and high-tech surveillance in Xinjiang.
Joly said Canada was also banning the purchase of Hikvison's products in government departments and agencies, and reviewing existing properties to ensure that legacy Hikvision products were not used in the future.
She said the order does not extend to the company's affiliate operations outside Canada but "strongly" encouraged Canadians "to take note of this decision and make their own decisions accordingly."
America has a very large and noticeable intellectual divide between the well educated and the rest. A few factors are in play: Religious dogmatism, poor public education framework, ultra individualistic society, and a systemic disobedience to authority or established fact.
This has been exploited over the past few decades by malignant actors to where we are now: sure, America has some of the greatest universities in the world, a lot of true genius talent also flocks to the US… it is still at best, only the top 10% of the population.
you have far overestimated the capabilities of the general population.
Sanction oil, there is no better time than right now to do so.
