That Russia is fighting defensively in Ukraine to maximize Ukrainian losses still doesn't make up for the vast difference in national power.

I don't think you realize just how large the gap is.

Russia boasted a production of 4.5 million artillery shells a year.

If all of China had 10 subcontractor plants similar to the ones shown on CGTN, they would be able to deliver 3.5 million guided missiles a year.

To give you a perspective, in ww2, USA produced 300 000 combat aircraft (similar quality/production cost as a cheap cruise missile). And in ww2, Italy produced ~600 000 artillery shells.

Russia's military industrial capability vis a vis China today is not ww2 Japan or Germany vs USA as some might believe. It's ww2 Italy vs USA.

To give some context to manufacturing capacity, Germany just before WWI had 12% of global production capacity, while UK had 18% and the US 22%. By WWII Germany reached peak capacity at 14% of global production (Soviets were about 14.5%), while the US was over 25% of global capacity. In 2024 the US holds 15% of global production capacity while China is at least 27-28% of global manufacturing capacity.

They are not sovereign. They have no say in the matter. The US occupies them with hundreds of bases, tens of thousands of soldiers, and their entire political system is infiltrated by the US. Look at what they are doing with Russia, effectively prostituting themselves for the US and deindustrializing themselves in the process. The goal is to keep China and Russia out, the US in, and the EU weak and subjugated to the US. Puppetry ,thievery, and bloodshed. It's the American way.

I was just going to say the same thing, if it wasn't obvious before it has got to be obvious now; Europe has been completely infiltrated by the US. There's no hope in trying to even reason with them anymore, all the sudden random statements designed to get a reaction out of China is all part of the plan. Notice how China was squeezed into the NATO statement, all with the intention of providing an excuse to move NATO to the pacific.

It's amazing how many dumb people are in influential positions. The reason why they're not doing it now is, not because they're ethical, but because they have more to lose. What's to stop China from stealing all intellectual property the West has if they okay themselves doing it? You think when they can patent something without showing how they did it? How do you identify that someone stole it? If you want it protected from someone stealing it, they have to show how they did it. The West okays themselves stealing other people's intellectual property means anyone can steals theirs and they have more to lose. So open that Pandora's Box...

Jai Hinds, Jai Pinoys are all the freaking same with their severe colonial mentality. Building a "Taylor Swift" concert stadium is seen as a necessity and not a clear sign of collective western slavish worship and infringing of their supposed non-existent sovereignty. I mean, just try to imagine if the picture is related to a Chinese person or things..the horror!!

There's not enough Philippine's Catholic church money to fund that project. They're still paying for all that legal costs for the priests molestation of children. But they have "God" on their side.

Filipinos are an example how Western influence poisons the brain. Filipinos brag the most about being liked by the West like it's the most important thing for any country. The West only likes Filipinos because the aren't a threat to them. They know their place behind the West. The Philippines is a primary destination for the West's International Child Sex Tourism industry. All just to be liked by the West... Again why is it so important for the West to have the world embrace Western values? So everyone thinks being liked by the West is important and thus will do anything for them just to be liked. Is it no wonder that the Philippines is one of the worst performing countries in Asia because what's really important is not a priority.

I remember watching something maybe on YouTube that had Latinos talking to one another and one of them brought up how Filipinos look at themselves as Latino and the person asked if anyone saw them as Latinos. All of them said no. Filipinos will one day be white, then another they will be Asian, and then another they will be Latino depending on which way the wind blows. I once saw on a TV show a Filipino promoting Filipino language characters tattooing like it was already a thing similar to how Chinese and Japanese characters are popular. I haven't seen any Westerners with Filipino characters tattooed on them. It's not a thing. They're liked more by Westerners so how come they're not tattooing themselves with Filipino characters? It's an example of the insecurity of wanting to be liked.

Let's not forget how the West criticized Duterte and Manny Pacquiao of homophobia. They were repeating what Western Catholicism taught them. And how do tell if someone is universally evil? Evil can have two contradictory thoughts at a single time. They taught Filipinos to be homophobic and they're vilifying them for being homophobic.

WWII US production capacity is not the same as in 2024. WWII was independent supply chain. during war time boost much higher quality control needed. i guess this cheap Yen can help but it will eat Japan and they will be back to square one.
