I'm convinced China's star agent is Peter Zeihan. The distraction ability Zeihan gives China is like Chang multiplied by every other Pettis out there. Many are genuine China haters but I'm increasingly convinced that Zeihan is actually (unironically) a CCP agent.
Im more and more certain that Serpentza is just a manufactured identity of the MSS meant to scare off unskilled labor immigrants from entering China.

I don't why people believe the that shit, how does a country with GDP with a third of United States export way more than the United States(almost twice) and imports only second to the United States(about 4/5)? This is literally impossible.

I would take bilateral trade data that over any make believe tea-leaf reading from satellites.

China also produces about twice the electricity than the US. US GDP is inflated with overpriced private medical sector, and other BS like that.
In 1960 US GDP spend on medicine was 5% and now it is 20%. In China it is 7%. And China has better life expectancy than US at this time.

Staying healthy is bad for GDP! Can't keep the wage earners alive for too long after retirement.

Counterpoint: Copenhagen
Copenhagen is a very bicycle friendly city with laneways for cyclists and bike rentals with front barrows to carry kids or shopping. Copenhagen has one of the highest living standards in the world, but is a really expensive city and Danes are amongst the highest consumers of anti depressant, despite being surveyed as being one of the happiest countries in the world.
