America cannot influence Mongolia, let alone change its government. As a point of curiosity, do you people ever consider the possibility that a group of people might be pissed about something without the CIA being involved? Because I've read about revolutions and riots throughout history long before the CIA existed, so I wonder how that worked.
People here do get jumpy, especially considering what just happened over the past weeks. But if that's not the case in Mongolia (which I hope so), then it would be great.

One by one: the UK, Japan, Australia, Canada, etc - Developed economies with formerly peacable relations with China are being soft couped by the CIA into being structurally hostile towards China
LOL What?? Those countries are the most biased pro-American anti-Chinese countries you can find. They were all set up after WWII. There is no CIA achievement there; it's like a person getting his dog to do something. If anything, America's power on them has slipped. These countries are supposed to unconditionally obey American orders; instead, America went around for 12 months getting countries to commit joining its tech war against China and got no one, not even one of these mindless zombies to join.

I’m sure I and a lot of members here did stupid things in university, egged on or otherwise encouraged by university ideologues and lecturers but not once did we decide to turn traitor and appeal to a foreign hostile state.

Hopefully they will learn to appreciate China and if not, tough, they ain’t leaving til 2050. May as well get used to it.

Isn't this the like 10th time the US has banned Chinese steel?

Obama put a tariff on Chinese steel, effectively banning it.

Trump put a tariff on Chinese steel, effectively banning it.

Now Biden plans to put a tariff on Chinese steel, effectively banning it.
Its kinda like how the US banned narcotics. Even when enforced by the US Customs, Coast Guard, FBI, DEA, Sheriffs, Police, and Steven Seagal. The drugs are still on the streets. When Americans are addicted to stuff, the US always fails to ban that stuff. With this, we can kinda conclude that cheap Chinese steel is addictive to US industries and businesses. Let the US govt ban all they like. Who knows, Americans might even resort to smuggling in cheap Chinese steel one day, than to buy legal but expensive US steel. God bless America!

I'm sure the next step is to put Chinese steel on the entity list so that TSMC and Nvidia can't supply 5nm semiconductors to Chinese steel producers.

Because according to America, everything China produces relies on advanced semiconductors, meaning China will be unable to make steel without access to Nvidia's latest graphic card.

How can the ASML machines that China needs to manufacture steel function without 5nm and Nvidia graphic cards? According to China watchers, it's impossible.
Indeed. The Americans will want to put practically every competitive Chinese exports on the entity list. Maybe canned seafood is next in line. TSMC, Nvidia, AMD, and Intel are banned from supplying top-of-the-line chips, processors, or graphic cards to Chinese canneries. Then China watchers in Bloomberg will say that the Chinese canning industry is gonna collapse because of a shortage of US advanced semiconductors, not sardines.

Meanwhile in China, advanced US semiconductors could still be available via the black market, or via legal loopholes. Smuggled in by non-other than opportunistic Americans or Taiwanese. Willing buyer, willing seller.

I was watching the old World Cup in 2002 and 2006. Back then now a single Chinese firm was a sponsor of the World Cup. all those ads on the side of games were US and other western companies. Now watching the qatar World Cup, there is a large representation from Chinese companies eg. Wanda, vivo, Hisense etc. makes me proud watching it. Almost as proud as if they had won the World Cup.
That's right. Let the World Cup participants win the World Cup trophy and glory. China instead wins the business of building the means of having the World Cup event itself. Trophy is glory, while business is economy.
