But when they're straight forward for everyone except you... that should be a sign.

So in other words, once again, you admit that America's actions causing the conflict with Russia also caused the EU's decline. That's the topic we're talking about.

Oh yeah Mexico's so different, it's completely off topic and you should have never brought it up just like most of the things you say.

I agree with MelianPretext's assessment and yours, I agree that this is a scenario that chinese leaders want to avoid, not to mention the possible loss of tiktok's algorithm.

it's just that imo, if china does not acquiesce to this seizure, it radically shortens the roadmap to physical war, and I don't think zhongnanhai is too keen on that at this point in time

maybe my opinion is wildly inaccurate, and war is just a remote possibility given the material/industrial circumstances of many possible players (e.g. europe), but I'm seeing a lot of signs that the american effort to completely defeat china is slowly but surely ramping up to a point of no return, and this time they're also operating in tandem with its allies (eu conducting an investigation into china's EVs: europe's own version of this tiktok thing in the us. it seems to me as if china's mercantilist practices have never been that much of a problem since its admission to wto, but now, suddenly, they are. is it made in china 2025 that scared the s**t out of them? did it start before? idk)

for example, I've always thought that semiconductors sanctions are pointless if you don't physically reset china's ability to research and innovate; china has the market and the talent pool to eventually come up with an indigenous EUV solution, so what's the point of sanctioning them? imo they make sense if you already know that in a couple of years you're planning to bomb the s**t out of their research facilities

Joe Biden declares opposition to Nippon Steel’s takeover of US Steel​

President seeks to keep company ‘domestically owned and operated’ despite America’s alliance with Tokyo
Joe Biden has declared his opposition to Nippon Steel’s proposed $14.9bn purchase of US Steel, saying it was “vital” for the American steel company to remain “domestically owned and operated”.

In a statement issued on Thursday, the US president characterised his decision as an effort to side with American workers, at a time when he is under pressure in his re-election campaign to retain the blue-collar vote in the face of aggressive courting by his Republican rival Donald Trump.

The intervention comes less than a month before Fumio Kishida, the Japanese prime minister who has worked closely with Biden to shore up Asian allies in the face of Chinese threats, is due to arrive in Washington for a high-profile visit

Sino/US relations being at their worst days since the Cold War… I’d say China miscalculated tremendously. No Chinese is going to say this is where they wanted it to go.

The only peaceful coexistence between the Chinese and the West is through guilt because it’s the primary tactic the West uses to get people and countries to do what they want. They vilify you first and then you have to bend over backwards for anything else even for things that have nothing to do with what they accuse to prove to them you’re not what they accuse you of being. The people the West doesn’t go after like they do China all successfully have laid a guilt trip on the West. Why? Because that’s a part of Western cultural thinking. They don’t want to look like the monster they were proven to be before so they work to avoid it because no one in this world is going to do what they want if they do. They think they did nothing bad to China so they have no guilt. And why is that? Because some Chinese think that would make the West angry at them to pound into them their crimes in China and would be counter intuitive to their goals.

I don’t really care if something comes across as the “Chinese” way or not because it has shown it doesn’t work hence why the “darkest days since the Cold War…”

Serious question, when and where should have China commenced the response you desire? And what guarantees do you think it would have that such methods would affect the desired outcome?

Whether one likes it or not, the deteriorating relationship between the 2 countries belie an undeniable reality that the U.S. and her vassals are knee deep worried about China's pre-ordained rise. If China was regressing and is stuck in an environment ala India we would not be seeing the constant vilification of the country and by extension it's people.

America during its cold war days never acted in such haphazard and what appears to be a desperate attempt to kneecap it's opponent that's not conducive to their b.s. propaganda of Democracy and Freedom.

Ahhh I see now. So when the US has a lack of soft power for its support of Israel, even within its own borders and among it's own citizens, your point of view is that they have hard power and no one can do anything about it, and that's real power!
Click to expand...
Lol, did I say hard power is not important.
MortyandRick said:
But when china has a lack of soft power, you suddenly change your tone and smugly start asking the forum to explain why China sucks at soft power.

Why the double standards?
Click to expand...
That's a question. What's double standard about it. Me and you have different views on soft and hard power. That's ok. Don't need to come at me personally every time I make a post. Don't be bitter about our last conversation. It's not that serious Morty.

Whatever they send to attempt to bomb China will be going on a 1 way trip. And the pilots who don't eject in time and go down will be the lucky ones.

See the U-2 shoot downs.

Comrade Elon won't give Taiwan Starlink

My reading of the article is that it is Tawiwan who doesn't want Starlink instead of being denied by Elon Musk.

SpaceX dominates the satellite internet industry, and Mr. Musk has long done business in China through his electric car company, Tesla, which has a big manufacturing operation in Shanghai. Officials in Taiwan decided it would be best to build a satellite network they could control.

Besides, starlink isn't the solution for this scenario anyway. Any LEO communication network need numorous ground stations to connect to internet because their low orbit. One can bypass ground stations by intra satellite relys, but that will eat up the bandwith of the satellites which is share with a large neighbouring regions. This will chock the network to the point of close to a network shutdown which is not acceptable by neighbouring countries. Starlink works well in Ukraine because the sat overhead can reach the ground stations in Ukraine's western neighbours, but Taiwan's SE Asian neighbours are highly doubtful to jump in to the aid in time of crisis.

Taiwan building its alternative is just a joke, it can not afford the cost, nor does it have the competence. Their only chance is relying on US sat on higher orbit (GEO).
