  1. There's something important here most people overlooked. When the last individual there said "everyone here tries to swindle everyone else" that's exactly how Soviet Russia was in the 70s and 80s right before it began experiencing early symptoms of collapse. Still think China will grow into a superpower? I have a dozen reasons they won't.

  2. China isn't a superpower. They have a navy comparable to Italy, and other than massive (truly massive) manpower, they have few advantages and would get steamrolled in any non-nuclear scenario by even the French or British. And those who parrot "they will soon have the highest GDP!!!" don't seem to understand that their GDP per capita is far, far lower, and their growth quickly beginning to disappear even as the western nations begin to grow again. China will remain a second rate power at best, if not collapse outright when their baby boomers get cancer from pollution.

  3. TS China is headed for a collapse that will make the great depression look tame- nobody is going to "fuck with" China. If anything China leans marginally further towards the west anyways, since most of its trade is done with the US and EU- and while China's sphere is now extending to Africa, the Africans are complaining because the same Chinese they once thought stood against imperialism are now looking imperialistic. Also, in the past, analysts have pointed to US businesses and investors investing in China as a sign that the US economy was becoming structurally weaker and less tenable- these same people, if honest, should now apply the same line of reasoning to China and ask why their wealthy business class is buying massive tracts here in the west. I can answer it easily- smart Chinese businesspeople are realizing their country is about to unravel badly. This will leave India as the main power there- while I believe the center of secondary power is also shifting- China will bump down to a secondary wealth status, while India replaces it... meanwhile Turkey, Brazil, and Mexico will rise quickly- BRICS will fall apart as China does, and meanwhile Russia will suffer badly as well and could balkanize even further as Chechens and Kamchatkans regain a national identity.

  4. magisterartium China is headed for a collapse so large that the rest of the world will get clusterfucked into a recession also.
