I kinda disagree with this ex-deputy chief of Party History Research Centre
the us was able to bounce back from decline in the past because it was able to rob and loot other industrialized countries via unequal treaties

plaza accord was one of those treaty, after japan signed that economic surrender her gdp growth was only 1.1% for decades in contrast the us experienced a decade of extraordinary recovery in growth rates in 1990s
The us enjoyed accelerated employment, productivity and wage growth, as well as faster investment and consumption growth in the later 1990s, while japan experienced lost decades

Now the us is facing another industrialized superpower nation (with a larger gdp ppp) that in contrary to japan refused to sign economic surrender plaza accord 2.0

How will the us bounce back from decline if it can't "harvest" China? So far the answer is not encouraging
They can't even agree to sign $1.9t infrastructure plan build back better which is vital for their own interest, political polarization is such that now msm openly talked about incoming civil war as soon as 2024

A parasyte cannot survive if it unable to find a host to consume
Not sure if you understand Chinese. But this convo paints an even darker picture of US hegemonic behavior than your description of 'harvesting.'
While there is no evidence whatsoever that the US instigated war with the intention to benefit its own economy, the result does speak for itself. And if I understand correctly, many a time the victim was their EU allies. Let's call it the art of hegemony. One should never underestimate the beauty of moral high horse. They look majestic to most people.
btw, Guo is one of the most respected political analyst across the straight. And I think this YT channel is of the highest quality with deeper analysis and next to no evidence of color (red, blue, green wise)
