Pretty honest assessment of US foreign policy, especially towards Russia.
I was being facetious. Sorry.
Judges Show Some Skepticism of TikTok’s Fight Against Potential U.S. Ban
TikTok on Monday pushed back against a law that would force the popular video app to sell to a non-Chinese owner or be banned, in what is shaping up to be a landmark case.Just ban Tiktok US gov, what could go wrong?
This site shows China lacks market share in exports in the large high tech sectors so uhh…
It's a good thing that China accounts for a large portion of high-tech consumption and doesn't need to export much.
Yes, it all points to the fact that China’s tech lead is a very thin one that is centered around a select handful of sectors.
The TikTok panel was an Obama judge (Srinivasan), a Trump judge (Rao), and a Reagan judge (Ginsburg). The DC Circuit is 7 Democrats and 4 Republicans but somehow, TikTok drew a 2 GOP panel, lol.Judges Show Some Skepticism of TikTok’s Fight Against Potential U.S. Ban

In other words, bye bye TikTok! enjoy December 6 when the DC Circuit denies your request for a preliminary injunction.
The U.S. can turn all trade & investment from China into a political hot potato that corporate legal counsel and state/local economic development agencies from coast to coast will not touch with a 30 feet pole and still have >2.X% growth and <3% inflation and China can do nothing about it as the U.S. simply vaporizes all of China’s FDI projects. What’s more - China’s response is to deepen relations with any U.S. business that will listen; ex., Tesla in Shanghai, pushing on them in any glimmer of hope to improve relations, if anything, just revealing their weakness.

China's tech lead is very thin also says the US tech lead when they have it is very thin. That's why the West has to make China think it's behind so therefore it must give up and surrender to the US and the West. How secure is it when they are the leader and they're worried about the guy in second place when they say it's over and China should give up. That's because second place doesn't mean you'll always be in second place. Who said the race was over? Why are they so worried when by their logic when someone is behind, they think they always stay behind? How did China pass all the US's allies to scare the US on their position if that's how it works?
Again it's like when China first got the Varyag. They said it takes 40 years to master aircraft carriers so China shouldn't bother. It has to start somewhere. No they thought the Chinese were dumb and thought the US was being honest. It's like semiconductors. China shouldn't bother because it takes more than one country to do it. Was that good advice or was it the US trying to convince China not to even bother because they'll never get anywhere going it alone just so they don't do it? I bet they would've said the same thing about EVs but were pessimistic about that for themselves so didn't bother trying to lie to the Chinese about that.
China isn't the one worried about position. The US is. They're the hare trying to convince the tortoise not to even bother when it's distracted trying to convince the tortoise it doesn't have a chance.

Position of strength is now banning successful foreign apps like authoritarian regimes… right.
Does ignoring him stop him from posting? Because that's really what is being asked for here.
The way I see it, there's only two ways to do it: The easy way and the hard way.
The easy way involves banning him. And when he pops up with another username, ban him again. The dude clearly isn't capable of alternating his posting pattern, so regardless of what IP he uses, it would be easy to identify him. And if the main forum mods don't want the work and the headache, I'm sure there are plenty of volunteers who would be happy to at least police this thread or any of the non-flagship threads.
The hard way involves inviting this guy for tea, and all the complicated logistics therein.
I'm honestly ok with either method. In a perfect world, I would much prefer the latter than the former. But we don't live in a perfect world, and as cathartic as it would be, he's not worth the effort of the latter.
