Tom Dans was appointed by Trump as the chair of the United States Arctic Research Commission in December. When I met him for lunch in Washington, earlier this year, he declined to speak further on the record, except to articulate a narrow, symbiotic vision for the future:
“My view is that the United States could take all the seafood Greenland could produce, and cut out the middleman, and keep it from China—and you could bring back all-you-can-eat shrimp at Red Lobster.”

Uhh. Ok.

So apparently, former DNI Tulsi Gabbard is part of an Hindu cult and takes orders from the cult leader. Maybe they should establish relations with the Moonies.

Some former members, however, have called the group a cult and said disciples were isolated from the outside world, characterizations the group has denied. Former devotees had been telling me for weeks that Butler controlled his followers’ major life decisions and demanded total obedience and secrecy.
Saltzburg had heard I’d been asking people about Chris Butler, the eccentric religious leader Gabbard once described as her guru. Gabbard grew up in Butler’s breakaway Hare Krishna group. Her parents held senior positions in the organization. Saltzburg said that she herself had been a member since moving to Hawaii with a college friend in the 1990s.

Financially it doesn’t even make sense for social media companies to try to enter the Indian market since each one of them has such low spending power, advertisers don’t even want to bother spending for eyeballs in that country, no matter how many of them they are.

For example if you somehow trick YouTube that you’re located in India, the premium monthly subscription is way lower. At some point it won’t even be worth the bandwidth costs. Too much effort for too little return, not to mention their extreme protectionist trade policies.

This concept also applies to Indians as inbound tourists. Who wants an Indian tourist who is unhygienic, rude and entitled, who haggles to the death for every penny and spends 10X less during their trip vs a Chinese tourist?

Iran war 2: electric boogaloo is still in Chinas interests as trump has already advocated his next target is North Korea and the pentagon has been trying to move assets to east Asia and revive PACOM and ditching the liability that is India. Effectively, the Americans are trying to use their perceived military superiority whilst they still have it…despite getting bodied in Iran.
Americans aren't doing a very good job hiding how desperate and panicked they are at Iran closing SoH over their bad behaviour.

They also don't actually perceive themselves as having military superiority, if they did they'd at least YOLO into SoH with a CSG and try their luck. What they're actually doing is trying to maintain a facade of military strength, something that's especially important now that they no longer perceive their own strength, and they're just too dumb to realize the entire world already knows they're weak and impotent.

For the psychotic Anglo Zionists, this also means China can track your cellphone in your Cheyenne complex and NZ compounds, and can happily deliver a strontium clad thermonuclear warhead, courtesy of dongfeng express.

China is kicking US all the way to Central Asia. Japan and now Korea now turning to Kazakhstan for Tungsten and minerals. Science flows after Kazakh accession to Abraham accord.
The future is Continental Powers not Maritime. That maritime cost advantage will evaporate once you put tougher environment standards on ships. All those EV, advance hybrids, diesel and driving assistance tech.
Aviation further gives advantage to Continental Powers by moving large number of people with in hours inland. When People have surety of quickly going home they will work on temporary projects to develop new resources and Cities. That’s how Royal Kingdoms were developed and Royals have the wealth and expertise to even extract Europeans to work for them and this further boosting investments in nearby countries.

Sarah Paine only talks nonsense.

In the video presented, all the attributes that distinguish a maritime power from a continental one are present; China is consolidating all aspects of a maritime power, while the US is eliminating its own aspects that transformed it into a maritime power.
Sarah Paine's knowledge of history is pathetic. She says that China is Continental power? The Zheng He voyages (1405-1433) took place long before the Europeans discovered the Americas. The size of the ships and fleets of the Zheng He voyages dwarfed any European expedition during the Age of Exploration.

China knew how to be a maritime power centuries before the US declared independence. And China was a responsible maritime power. It used that maritime power for diplomacy and commerce. Not for invasion, genocide, slavery, colonialism, and Empire.

So what is Sarah talking about? Yeah China did mess up eventually, but the memories of Zheng He's voyages are still remembered in Asia. Centuries later, China returning to take it's place as a maritime power is not exactly news. That the US is now effing up its naval supremacy is non of China's concern.

No need using traditional Chinese feudal dynasty to contradict. Finally, Ming and Qing also enforced the navigation ban. In ancient times, China did not focus on the sea, but the CPC broke this tradition.

Indians and the world are lucky that much of China's vast internet users are happily confined within the limits of GLF, and the only media they encounter is the very boring state media.

Interestingly I wonder if GRRM knows about the whole Qiang people thing, as in GoT there's a race of shepherds called Lhazareen or Lamb Men who are the favourite target of Dothraki predation.

IIRC Qiang people weren't innocent in history, but rather they kept harassing Shang border protectorates so eventually Shang got fed up and said that's it it's human sacrifice time, an ancient case of FAFO. Shang had a much more advanced social structure so was better organized and much more powerful. Qiang didn't get wiped out completely and took part in the Zhou uprising.

You'll sacrifice a lamb man or two if it made your fox girl waifu happy.
