Everything that could go wrong for them went wrong today. That is some serious bad luck.
US + Israel. I only copied the term from the US/Israel - Iran war thread.

In impoverished countries, ordinary people have few opportunities to change their lives, so they play football for "bread," while in wealthy countries, it's often just for watching "circuses."
Ordinary Chinese people neither need to earn "bread" this way, nor do they need "circuses" for satisfaction. Therefore, "bread and circus" have no place in China.
Ultimately, football is just a sport. It's been artificially imbued with too much meaning. China doesn't need to force itself to achieve a leading position in football. I think it's enough to let football return to its original meaning as a sport. For example, sports like the "Village Super League" and the "Jiangsu Super League," which are accessible to ordinary people, perfectly embody the true spirit of sports.

The facts are simple.
China is the largest trading nation in the world today.
China has the largest trade surplus in recorded history of the world!
So what is the CCP strategy? What is the right thing to do?
We are talking about money here! So, they got to keep trade growing. That is the simple strategy.
So any step to less free trade, is bad for CCP and bad for China. These Western attempts to restrict trade with China, seem like manipulative stunts to have China declare they want to be protectionist, when the really is free trade is good China.
That US government move against Volvo, is a move of profound weakness. They admit they cannot compete. Just like how they imposed those export quotas on Japanese cars during the Reagan administration, because they could not compete.
So? That is another question, if we are not clear about it. Did those export restrictions against better Japanese cars implemented by Reagan, did those moves strengthen the US car industry and their products?
What? You joking? Haha!

I'm not sure China is aware America is in a clean energy trade war with them.
Agree.
That AI guy is a bozo. I wasted 10 minutes of my life watching his AI crap, in an unrelated video.
He sucks.

So despite asia being the largest continent in the world and representing 4.7 billion people, only Japan and Australia made it to the next round.
Everyone else either didn't make it past round 1 or didn't even qualify.
Is it better too be good at niche fields and suck at football. Or be above average at football and good no where else.
