The China Thread
- Thread starter God's lonely asperger
- Start date
AI is the new arms race. Whoever wins this race, will win the next century and beyond. The top AI guy in the USA says China cannot be beat. He is right, we replaced the men who were able to put a man on the moon with slide rulers with third world immigrants.
Do I have time to slit my throat before Ping Pong Ching Chong parachutes down my chimney and steals my corneas?
Why would China waste resources doing that? Just wait for us to collapse by dropping our IQ with third world immigration and then send in drones and robots to clean up the mess.
I was joking, my fren. Even Cooper got it, lol.
You've got the penguin playground just below you, why not go for a stroll with the emperors?
No eminent domain laws as we know them. Multiple stories about major roads having to be built around the stubborn owners' properties. In one case the provincial authorities resorted to dispatching Kung fu fighting goons to intimidate the people into selling. If it's of critical national importance, a prime location for an air force base or rich in strategic mineral deposits, then you have to move I'd think.
Homeowner refused to sell to Chinese Government resulting in highway being built around house
A Chinese woman refused to leave her tiny abode, resulting the government building a busy freeway around her house
Chinese Highway Runs Circles Around Residents Who Refused to Leave
This "nail house" resulted from residents who refused to move.

Is that Mr.Huang? I wouldn't want to live in an authoritarian country with the best, most advanced and widely deployed AI systems in the world, even though they seem to reward 'good citizen' behavior and don't try to help or prop up criminals.
I've posted more on the Ukraine and Russia threads than on this one over the last couple of years, but somehow no one is questioning me about "devoting that much energy" there. Part of the reason I do post a lot on this thread is that there is an inordinate amount of low-IQ propaganda with people like LaNegra trying to push low grade slop from hacks like Serpentza about China.
As I've mentioned a few times already, I see China more as a check on the otherwise unlimited power of the ((banksters)) that have been parasiting the West than a threat to crush the West. The plans for the West and humanity of an Alex Karp, Bill Gates or a Sam Altman are far more nefarious than anything the Chinese could come ever out with.
It's pretty clear here that your take is that of a zero sum game to control the world between the West and China, so you are wondering why I am not on board with my team here. I think the Chinese, much like the Russians, basically want to be left alone, while US foreign policy has essentially been to try to kneecap their growth, if not to take them over outright, as was done to Russia in the 1990s or China for over a hundred years after the Opium Wars. It is a policy straight out of the Tonya Harding school of geopolitics.
The reality here is that China is going to be the world's leading economic and industrial power, that is the natural course of events, as they have 4 times as many people as the US, are not dumb and are highly organized and united, led by capable nationalists. They're very good at industry but not natural global hegemons. Where I differ with IIMT is that countries like China or Russia don't have to be global predators in order to thrive, and neither do we. That is not just a rational, civilized take, but it is also the right Christian take. Do you really want to side with sellout psychopaths like Lindsay Graham, Nikki Haley or Victoria Nuland here?? No thanks.
Faber has had a series of incredibly lousy predictions. He predicted the US stock market would crash 10 years ago, it tripled in value instead. In the 00s, he predicted Gordon Chang-style that the Chinese economy would crash, it kept growing like gangbusters instead. He's an older macroeconomist who has not lived or worked in China, unlike the Gaves who have lived and worked there as a banker-investor for 30 years.

Stories like these are absolute gold, and shine a big fat spotlight on the gigantic discrepancy between reality in China and the spun up plastic propaganda narratives artificially held up by entire CCP bot armies.
Shanghai's now former vice-mayor Lin Duo's daughter was recently discovered to be a US resident and green card holder. Like basically every CCP apparatchik's offspring bytheway, that's how you know da satanic West is collapsiiiing. Anyway, upon finding out the MSS gave Lin Duo two options, 1. have her daughter revoke her green card or 2. resign.
She chose her daughter's US green card and resigned as Shanghai's vice mayor.
Grim.

Property rights in China are stronger because there is no property tax. In the West, you never really own property, as you have to pay property and school taxes, so you can never really retire unless you accumulate a small fortune as you will be faced with ever growing property taxes and medical bills in your late years.
I'm not sure about Beijing stagnating, its economy is fairly well diversified, and as the capital it is likely to benefit from state policies.
Someone made a mistake, a big mistake. You should actually visit the USA someday to see how "good" things are here. But be careful, there are a lot of no go zones here, so research that first.
A former vice-mayor of a big Chinese city resigned, and that is your big proof that China is a dystopia? That's a bit flimsy, even by LaNegra standards.
Maybe you should start posting under a second sock puppet account as a fake Chinese nationalist, the same way you post as a fake Russian patriot to try to discredit Russia.
Looking at this latest source used by LaNegra: typical glowie anti-China source, 100% China is a neverending dystopia messaging, as if nothing good ever happened in China the last decade, with comically ludicrous material like this:
...and an all-seeing eye as his main profile banner, a brother who "stands for universal values", is he from the same Lodge as you, LaNegra?
