There, fixed it for you.

India always vastly overestimate its capabilities and have grand ambition far beyond their capabilities or competence. Yet they also resolutely refuse to learn any lessons from past mistakes and seem to think doing everything exactly the same way will somehow magically yield completely different results.

It’s like every time India sets its sights on something, it takes an almighty swing at it, but always misses and punches itself in the balls. Rather than try to work out what went wrong and improve its technique, they just pick a new, even harder target and take a bigger swing aimed at their own balls again.

Can't hit your own balls if you have none to begin with.

I find it so weird that when the Vikrant was under construction, China had no ACs at all, then 10+ years later, China now has 2 ACs and 1 almost done and the Vikrant is still not yet in service. I'm sure no one(including me) would ever entertain such a scenario back then. There is something deeply wrong with Indian Army procurement.

At this point, Type 003 would be launched before Vikrant enters service - Hell, it might even enter service before INS Vikrant does lol.

At this rate we will have fusion powered cruisers in space before Vikrant enters service. I think they'll probably end up scrapping the thing due to rust damage over the decades.

Now where is that cartoonist made infamous by Zhao Lijian's tweet? He could really stir up the pot linking the Xinjiang 'genocide' with Canadian comments/condemnations and actual genocide pictures.

Maybe in Europe but definitely not in the US. It's probably going to be while before the US goes all electric. Just like how the US has bad cell-phone coverage, it's going to be the same with charging stations. And then everyone will have to have their own fast charger at home. Then I bet like taking COVID-19 vaccines, there will hold-outs that want to keep gasoline engines alive. Someone will associate getting rid of gasoline engines with the Holocaust.

Lol they will talk about their "freedom" and "human rights" to drive ICE trucks because it's in their constitutional nutcase heads.

They sure love their virtue signaling. Since we are still in the middle of a pandemic they should make it VIRTUAL signaling just to be safe.

It seems that China is finally starting to use the one skill that the USA and the collective west may be the most vulnerable against, ‘internet trolling’ and having a whole library full of facts on their side and given what they have managed to accomplished so far, the possibilities are endless and the but hurt caused may caused new opportunities to arise, all of which should cause the west to shudder at the pwnage that is about to be unleashed and unlike Japan (who have became a nation of pussies under the USA as of now), China no longer has any chill and given that Russia is about the join the fun, well the fun is about to start.
In cause you think I am full of it, notice how every response from either China or Russia pisses off the west to no end while the west cannot make a single response without making sure that Biden is in his safe space because ever since he called Putin a killer, he has more or less gone back to his bedroom to suck on his dummy and also note that ever since the EU has driven Russia and China together, we have continued to see the EU getting into more and more trouble while the USA is getting more and more into debt

The Group of Seven nations plans to launch a green alternative to China’s Belt and Road initiative when the leaders meet at a summit next week, according to two people familiar with the matter.

The strategy, expected to be called the “Clean Green Initiative,” would provide a framework to support sustainable development and the green transition in developing countries, the people said. The initiative will also be on the summit agenda for the leaders.

The same person said that it was not clear whether any new money would be put behind the G-7 initiative, explaining that the initial purpose was a pledge toward creating a strategic framework.

Lol

Germany, France and Italy are keen for it to support activities in Africa, while the U.S. is pushing for action in Latin America and Asia. Japan argues for more focus on the Indo-Pacific region. But all nations broadly agree on the need for a more transparent alternative to the Chinese program, the person added.

Lol again

IMO smart move by the West. China had left an obvious opening on "Green" projects and the West exploited this opportunity.

This will also help the West find markets for their own Green Industries, very smart.
The only thing is, where is the money?..

This happened in front of 65 Bayard St, Chinatown, NY

It's all virtue signaling b.s. like you said and what I was thinking as soon as I saw the feel good headline, where's the beef? And do you honestly think for a nanosecond that people in those countries are simply going to be jumping up for joy knowing that their hard earned money/taxes are going to be doled out for projects abroad rather than actually using it for their respective countries infrastructures that's crumbling and in dire need of repair? Not to mention how to Jumpstart their countries economic activity that's been anemic due to covid-19 mishandling?

Out of those countries only the U.S. has the ability to magically print money like they're mana from heaven. The others not so much.
