The old India growth story is back! I love this little gem that seems to be legislated by law to pop up in these 'China is weak' pieces.
Also, I know Western authors don't even know how to debate anymore (for some reason) but his entire argument literally rests on only one point he made that is relevant to the title!
The fact that China has never actually tried to economically coerced a country to such an extent that it has done serious economic damage. That's it. This is the only point he makes in support of his stupid title. So basically, not. one. single. iota. of information about how China is "weaker than it looks".
He doesn't even make the claim that China TRIED to economically coerce a country but failed. No. He says China doesn't even try to despite saying it will. So by the same stupid token, America's military must be weaker than it looks because it keeps threatening Iran, North Korea, China et al. but never doing shit.
China never bullied anyone, Chinese have always been the one that gets bullied.
Everywhere we go we're known to be timid and quiet and pushovers, but intelligent/productive. Basically we're too civilized.
Every Chinese child in the West grows up constantly undermined by all groups including fellow immigrants.
The unspoken universal fact is that Chinese are one of the hardest working people in the world.
And they basically want us to either be slaves or die.
It's why I will never work under anyone again, we Chinese are better off living and dying by our own terms.
Chinese must learn to value their own lives and work more and never give in to bullies.
