More than that, in 2018, the Chinese economy was by design, massively integrated and co-dependant with the collective west. That was meant to be China’s insurance policy to ensure the west does not turn on her, since the west will do as much damage to itself as it does to China with any trade or hot wars. But that cuts both ways. The primary reason China’s responses were so ‘weak’ back then was because any retaliation China did was going to hurt China as much as America.

Since then, while the west has talked about de-coupling and de-risking, China has quietly done it.

This means that China has far far more ammo to use against Trump 2.0 in a trade war compared to last time. And unlike last time, these actions are not going to damage China in their use.

This is one of many reasons I'm so glad Trump is back as US president. Another is that during his administration he will see Huawei overcome the blockade he started with the first Chinese EUV chip. Yet another is the parade of self-owns America and its vassals are going to suffer.

It's funny that if you search Dual Circulation on Google, the Wiki quote it pins at top literally says "Dual circulation involves making the domestic market to be less dependent on external fluctuations and shocks while also making the country's economy more indispensable to the outside world."

It's as though nobody in the west has enough IQ points to understand what this means.

China's Xi Unveils Megaport in America's (((Backyard))) Amid US Concerns

You know why Americans who hate TikTok hate TikTok? Americans like to brag about their individuality meaning they're saying everyone else are not individuals like how they think Chinese are automatons. It offends them that Chinese created an algorithm that figures out how they think. If they were "individuals" like they brag they are, TikTok wouldn't be able to figure them out.

I wrote a comment in here stating nothing said here is a crime and they deleted it.

Americans dont have mental capacity high enough to think that deep, most dont even have the mental capacity to think about the implications of China curating news for 2/3 of their population.

The ones who dont like TikTok only do so because they're told to think so, and Americans are trained from birth to only think what they're told, hence their high rate of cult/mega church fellowing.

For the few people who give out thought instructions, they themselves only dislike TikTok because they cant control it, give them a taste of illusion of influence, as Trump and "manosphere" got, and they embrace it with no understanding of who has the real power

I hear Americans brag about their individuality all the time. How hard is it for them to think that Chinese are mindless robots? That's saying they're not mindless robots. It doesn't require any deep thinking. That's why also how Westerners think they get to make decisions for everyone else because they can't think for themselves. Those who hate TikTok are afraid it will manipulate people against their will.

I can't speak for most actual American civilians, but they're run by a government and spoken for online by bots that both act like mindless robots hellbent on destroying China.

If those are the people that control them, then too bad, no matter what the actual "little guys" think, we gotta teach them a lesson until they overthrow those mindless robots and install some actual human rulers we can talk to. The doping up, deindustrialization, povertization and full society confrontation with NATO must progress until the population of NATO does this.

They brag about individuality because they're told to think so, they dont actually understand in any way or form what individuality means, and you need to understand what individuality means to know the connection between TikTok's algorithms and its relation to their individuality. Conversly if they did know the connection, they would see themselves as automontons everytime they open the app, and they clearly dont.

To because the Saudis were so weak, they couldn't let incompetent India stay together? LOL Not their call but interesting theory on Arab weakness.

Lol. yeah sure it was not there call. Japan that only thrived in American system due to Arabs (saved decades in development for Asia) sent its first Toyota LC to Pakistan and than Saudi. The same people arranged the meeting of US president with Saudi King who supported division of India.
American president of 150m people and fully independent in natural resources was meeting King of only 3million to discuss creation of Jewish state in an area control by British/Ottoman empires. that area has nothing to do with Saudi. This is called Soft Power.

On the 87th National Day, Sabq reviews the story of the first meeting between Abdulaziz and American Commander Roosevelt in 1945 on board an American ship. This meeting drew the map of alliances in the Middle East and laid the foundations for historical relations between the two countries, which were consolidated over decades.

He continues: The most important discussion they had at length was about the Palestinian issue and the planting of Jews in Palestine as an alternative country for the Jews. At the end of the meeting, they reached an agreement whereby America would provide military training and American support to the then-emerging Saudi Arabia in exchange for oil and political support in the region.

In 1954, the hand-me-down ‘Toyota Jeep BJ’ tag was replaced (Willys had since trademarked the name ‘Jeep’) with the descriptively memorable name Land Cruiser. This helped launch the vehicle into export markets, with Pakistan receiving the first shipment later that year and Saudi Arabia following in 1955.

That proves nothing. That's just a fact that 2 countries that couldn't develop their own fighters had to buy them. Except today India can at least make some low level ones with imported engines and the Saudis still can't make a kite.

Saudis untill recently had population smaller than Sweden ( A country that built fighters with external parts and engines). Comparing it with population of 1.4b having benefit of colonial education of hundreds of years.
