I have no idea where this sense of European arrogance comes from.

Even most Europeans online nowadays agree that they are ants compared to China. Yeah perhaps, although it hurts my pride to say so, China is still developing and getting its urban aesthetics figured out, so few if any Chinese cities can claim to be as beautiful as Prague and Dresden.

But in terms geopolitics, technology, economics, even cultural exports outside of handbags, the EU literally has no leg to stand on against China. It's currently squeezed by the US and the Russians, with China being somewhat open to working with them. And yet they still insist on playing hard ball. No retort necessary, other than fine its your guys' funeral.

Does it mean Machuria separatists need to bring back Imperial Japan first and then bring back Manchukuo

Imperial japan still technically exist. After all the main criminal Hirohito was let off Scot free and was portrayed as a victim like Maxwell.

Last time they said they'd fight back they accepted 15% tariffs with nothing in return. I don't get how picking a fight with China while already beefing with Russia and the United States is a good idea.

Oh surprise surprise. Anti-China Athropic did an AI experiment on AI models to see how they would react to simulations where to see if it would save a person at the cost of itself. And guess which model chose self-preservation? DeepSeek. Like they did’t exploit DeepSeek’s open source platform to stack the deck…? It’s like how someone made a big deal finding out there’s an exploit on Unitree robots where someone remotely could hack into commands. Maybe because these robots are mainly for research purposes where those buying them are more likely to be able program that for their own specifications themselves. I bet if Unitree did have a patch, the notorious suspects would then complain about the limitations forced upon. Envious Westerners are already taunting how they have the advantage with robotic dexterous hands. Well what are they worried about over some hapless Westerner losing control of their Unitree robot they were fooled into buying doing? Stub their way onto a US secret base to steal the Dark Star hypersonic plane?

personally i dont got beef with imperial japan. when i imagine an alternate history where imperial japan never existed

i just see nationalist victory and jiang selling the country out to international banking for ever

Think of them as Mongols or Xiongnu but on boats instead of horses and it makes a lot more sense. Or vikings who never stopped

The only way all three were stopped was really brute force to make their expeditions pst too much.

Japan didn't matter before because they had wooden boats. Things are a bit different today when it comes to tech.

You know some Indians said the real reason you see so many Indian immigrants outside is because it's done deliberately. There are too many mouths to feed in India and not enough jobs etc so they figure the best way to deal with it is just dump them somewhere else. There's also might be a sinister motive is to put loads of Indians in other countries to gain influence over them. I recall they documented there is some Hindu advocacy group trying to affect policy on america (HAF) Why it India do this earlier? Well they tried to but other countries told it to piss off. However now countries esp western ones are weakening, the opening has widened a lot.

If this is actually true and there's really bad motive behind it, it really does change things.

Anyway Japan talks tough but I don't buy. Here's the new supposed head of immigration. If there's already a deal in place then they won't do crap. You basically have to use force like Uganda, Fiji or Myanmar to enact real change.

Here is the thing. Despite the new PM saying otherwise I think the western style mass migration is coming through. Their overlord gave the order, and they will obey. There will be no identity left, only a mixture of people with no agency eager to serve the next highest bidder. No one will be left to fight for their collective benefit. They will be easy to control. This is the vision of our masters.

That's why I don't waste my time listening to this rhetoric. It's just theater to make the chuds not lash out at this stage. Did that Meloni stop the boats?

I thought left wingers in the west were grifters but right wingers are even bigger grifters. And right wingers tend to be supported by corporates which have a vested interest in immigration.

People didn't vote for immigration yet the higher ups implemented it anyway. When they have a plan, it will be executed unless you intervene using force. Disagreeing with it won't really change much.

Yeah, if nationalist winning is the game equivalent of normal ending then CCP winning is the true ending where you had to grind 3 hidden boss you were never expected of fighting, only to end up fighting the true big bad in a final clash after 20 hidden quests. We have already had the best outcome possible.

All this OMG AI is so dangerous story is just silicon valley hype building to make AGI seem more imminent than it really is. If a LLM ever show any sign of self preservation it's only due to it learning the word pattern of self preservation on some training set, it does not know the concept of death or self preservation for that matter.
