I have a feeling Palmer Luckey someday will fall flat on his face for getting something wrong big time. He's saying countries that value life are going to deploy drones more than countries that don't. Funny since the US is a late comer in seeing value in drones while China is building drones up the yin-yang. Guess which country he thinks values life more. Or you can look at it this way and see how Americans don't like drones because they like to be control and has nothing to do with valuing life. If you've heard what fighter pilots think many of them argue in favor of having manned pilots over automation.

Incredible, history revisionism happening in real time.
I mean it isn't the first really. Like if you're a regular here or at least keeping up to date with current affairs, it's kinda easy to see how the hypocritical west functions.

Obvious westoids and their vassals won't believe it and will come up with excuses. It doesn't really matter since it's not in their interest to consider the truth. What matters is YOU know it and act accordingly to that knowledge to make effective decisions.

The same can be said of the west of how they see China and say it doesn't matter what we say since we are brainwashed. But we can see from their results they are misreading China and refuse to adapt. That's their problem, we have no more time or energy to spare honestly.

See I might be naive for saying this but don't they have something more important to do than to keep gloating and deflecting how this is totally not their fault or problem? Or does it actually take reality setting in for them to get off their asses and do something about it?

i think at this point they literally cant
the way everything is set up in america now locks them into immotility. the economics, the human capital, the infrastructure, the regulations, the myths and narratives, these are all supporting each other in a negative way to prevent any reforms. every component is now too expensive to fix -- and it's not just a matter of being fiscally too expensive to fix, but even more devastatingly, out of time to fix.

like imagine you're playing a game of chess, except right when youre entering the endgame your queen suddenly switches color right in front of your king. to america, china just pulled the biggest betrayal. this wasn't supposed to happen. this wasn't in the rules. the chinaman was supposed to be an eternally deferential savant that just simply did what was told without any pushback. america was supposed to ride off into the stars on infinite electrical power from chinese batteries and renewables. and suddenly china is taking this magic carpet that america commissioned and keeping it for themselves. you see why they keep talking about it in terms of "china stealing our shit?" it's not just in the literal ip theft sense; to americans, it's their destiny that was stolen.

anyways, when you're a dead man walking, all you can do is cope.

Why is Obama in this picture?

1. This was a meme, (from a previous decade, cough cough), which I always found funny, it was joke.

2. It was another underhanded way for the American right wing to attack Obama of being a man of the left, which he was. In fact, Trump still attacking Obama, kind of remember the former threaten the latter with some legal action recently.

3. Sometimes just words do not make an impact. Seeing Obama with those heroes, then the American will get scared! This political art or political meme does seem to have some purpose. I find it funny! My honest opinion.

:D

I'm not sure reality will set in, in which case this makes them properly delusional. Even if there is defeat, they would probably come up with excuses and rationalize it. An example might be the defeated Confederacy from the US Civil War. The die-hard racists and Confederates even after the war told a narrative that they were the better soldiers and generals and that they were only defeated because the North "cheated" by using more men and using attrition. It is the similar narrative told against the WWII Soviets by the Nazis, the Korean War Chinese, the Vietnam War Vietnamese. It goes all the way back to the myths the modern West tells itself about Thermopylae like in the movie "300". Basically that the other side was not fighting "fair" and/or using human wave attrition thereby showing their faceless robotic inhumanity, while the defeated were shining valiant defenders ultimately swamped by an ocean of barbarity.

Yeah, exactly. Agree completely.

And most of them never think about what can happen next.

Some do, when they say losing the tech war can impact American living standards, when that person says that, then that person knows the risks. They know what is happening.

But to the plebs, it is too abstract. How does mirco-chips, who makes them, can affect muh standard of living?

To me, a recent story is a perfect example, of a future that the United States, the people who know, want to avoid but cannot now.

It was the story this week about the average price of a new car is $50000 USD in America. That is pricey, when we know BYD can sell you a quality car for $10000 that is more advanced being electric. Biden more or less outlawed Americans from Chinese cars.

That tells us two things, in my opinion.

1. Americans are forced to pay more excessively more for inferior products.

2. People who are told they will receive the short end of the stick are second class citizens.

That is what happens when the Chinese beat the Americans to a legit and good and affordable EV.

The Southern Whites used to tell the blacks they had to sit at the back of the bus. Biden told Americans you cannot buy a good Chinese car, for whatever reasons they postulate. Back of the bus. That is the message. That message is only for second class citizen.

When they realize the US government is treating the average American like a second class citizen, the crap will hit the fan!

Unless they do something to turn it around, and get back into the game. They seem to be like going all in with the AGI.

China and Russia are officially endorsing the view that the snapback sanctions against Iran are illegal, so since yesterday all UN sanctions against Iran are permanently lifted. The Iranians posted the letter and Russia is supporting them publicly, but why is China signing the letter and keeping very quiet about it? I couldn't find any reference to the letter or what the Chinese position is on whether the UN sanctions exist or not. If Fu Cong is going to sign the letter, he might as well declare it loudly. Or does China want to keep the option of changing their position on UN sanctions to pressure Iran and stop them from going for the bomb?

If China now considers resolution 2231 to have expired and there's no more risk of a return of the UN arms embargo, then further weapons sales to Iran might be happening.

Arrow Electronics says that US trade curbs on its Chinese affiliates are being reversed

the U.S. government was reversing trade restrictions placed on Arrow's China-based affiliates for facilitating the sale of U.S. components found in weaponized drones used by Iran-backed groups like the Houthis.
is this related then?
