@Coalescence bro remember G2 or the mythical beast Chimerica, Obama propose it and China rejected it thus the Pivot in Asia Strategy. China will never accept Western Value and norms cause like my brother @horse mentioned from his previous post, the Chinese are chauvinist with a twist, we're the center of the world, why do we have to kowtow to foreigners and we build a Wall to prevent Hombre from entering, so the word imperialist is an alien word.

I do remember reading something about G2, imagine in an alternative timeline where China accepted the deal. The amount of human suffering that will come of that world order, and the human progress we see China has achieved now would have never been realized.
On the being "chauvinist with a twist", there's a theory that goes something along the lines that China acts more akin to a traditional imperialist, which builds symbiotic relations with its tributary states, while the US and UK are neo-imperialist state that exploits and plunder its colonies.
I recall reading the difference in behavior have to do with China sharing land borders with those states, so they have more vested interest in the stability and prosperity of their tributary states. While US and UK is separated far away from their colonies with water borders, making them isolated from their instability, with less concern for their wellbeing, they exploited them more.
I'm not sure if I read that article from here or from twitter, but if anyone knows what I written here, please drop a link to the article here.

@Coalescence bro your analysis is spot on and it's nice we share the same viewpoint, the current US is an extension of the British empire which in turn derived from the Vikings of old. They are the originator of Lebensraum as shown by history the way they exploit and plunder is to genocide the natives.
I highly doubt it is Pakistani intelligence. They can’t even protect their own country from US interference let alone be capable of such an operation.
I thought the idea that Washington faked the positive result was conspiracy tier. Now I'm thinking it's true.
China at the moment is still shielded from major food price inflation.
Just ordered a marinated whole chicken for 10 yuan from Pinduoduo. Picking it up tomorrow from the liquor store downstairs. Something similar would have costed me at least $2.99/pound at Aldi when I left U.S. about half a year ago. There are also some oranges and pears for about 3 yuan / 500g in the same order.
Also got some really nice pork belly for 13 yuan / 500g at local supermarket last week. Would have to spend $4.99 - $5.99 a pound at Chinese grocery when I was in the U.S., and for that I had to endure Epoch Times handouts at the checkout.
Oh, if I'm too lazy to cook I can have 2 x Kung Pao chicken + veggie + rice for about 25 yuan delivered to my door and freeze one for later.
We have unattended Epoch times baskets at some supermarket checkouts... many uses for free newspaper - kindling for woodfire (has cool green flame to it), base bedding (bottommost layer) for pets, also if you feel like taking home a massive stack just to recycle straight away, all good uses
