John Mearsheimer had already warned his Indian audiences, that the US and India are not eternal allies. The US will turn on India when India becomes the next challenger. What he really meant was: "Be our dog against China, and stay as our dog, or be the next item on our menu". What he doesn't know is that his Indian audiences do not have the IQ to understand what he really meant.
Ever since the Sikh assassination in Canada episode and Indian support of Russian economy, I've noticed more Western articles portraying India in a more non-friendly light.
If I recall you wanted economic war with the west and so you got it. We are depleting the west across multiple fronts, hollowing out their industry and forcing them to choose between widespread Chinese profiteering at their expense or fiscally unsustainable policies. And the cost so far is less demand from these economies that are being hurt. At least China maintained the largest absolute gdp growth in 2024 and a wage growth higher than gdp growth. That indicates an economy which her rivals are not able to match today or for the foreseeable future, yet.
China is already playing the Game Theory with the West, but not in they way they wanted it played. Game Theory was invented by the Western imperial powers to predict and game their adversaries through a combination of psychology and maths.
