End of History
The fact that he is Japanese
What's the third one? That Beijing is Chinese?
The fact that it's turning out neoliberalism isn't the 'final' political system.

The fact that the neoliberal America couldn't even offer a proper kitchen debate style contest with China to see who's system is better, instead they went down a self destructive populism path.

The fact that the line "beginning of history" is actually somewhat correct for today and it just happens to be rhetorically the opposite of his theory.

Dismantled or dominated? British pound hasn't been dismantled despite it's power projection eclipsed first by the Soviets and later America. A hundred years later, a lot of bribing is still done in GBP. I don't see the USD being completely dismantled anytime soon. And there are other assets to bribe with - tangible items, real estate, targetted killing of opposition, etc.
Downgraded to a regular national currency rather than the international trade standard. They can bribe with other assets but so can anyone else; right now, they're not on fair ground cus the USD is the reserve currency and can be freely printed. I still marvel at how China has the US on the backfoot despite the global free printing press that Washingon has. After that's gone and they need to put up real goods like everyone else, they're gonna be a midget compared to a production giant like China.

Reminds me of this gem of a CNN crew getting fucked up by the police because they're standing in the middle of the road and then telling the officer to fuck because this is a public space.

Old habits die hard of Westerners walking around China like they own the place.
Frankly the Chinese police should've beat the them and give them back the tape to show back home.

Man it's so exhausting reading American reporting on the trip. They're all "look at all that ceremonial stuff Trump is getting, that means China respects him, you wouldn't see that if it was Kamala or Biden there".

Republican seeking validation in the eyes of foreigners is very 90s "opening up" phase China. I remember back then whenever China does something on the international stage and get thumbs up by foreigners Chinese news would be talking about it non-stop too.
