  1. WHEN YOU ARE NO LONGER THE GLOBAL HEGEMON you cant go around dictating terms to other countries without repercussions
    694
  2. MY NEIGHBOR HAS A €28K Chinese crossover - is a "DONGFENG T5-EVO" Honestly it is AMAZING - leather seats, electric seats, 7sp automatic, 48mpg, and THE best paint job I have seen outside a classic car show, really next level - and it looks like a lamborghini urus
    149
  3. 100% AGREE ABOUT THE CHART its absolutely terrible
    73
  4. THE WAY THE US CHIPS ACT HAD FAILED is quite spectacular
    72
  5. My first S Class Mercedes was a 1989. My last was a 2012. In that time almost every model was worse than the last for quality [the 1994 probably bing the BEST]. They changed from quality engineering to cheap electronic toys that very quickly stopped working. I literally gave away my last car, after 3 years of not using it so much didn't work it was not economical for me to repair it all. they poured their reputation for engineering excellence down the toilet.

  6. My neighbour has a Dongfend Evo T5 small SUV - €28k, 4cyl 200bhp, 7sp auto, 48mpg, fill leather electric seats, 4 zone climate, the BEST paint job I have seen on a new car for 40 years, looks like a mini Lambo SUV. Incredibly build quality. I ahve not driven it but for €28 it is ASTONISHING

  7.  @rogerstarkey5390  A LOT ARE - a recent study of from memory 138 Chn scientists selling up and moving back to Chn voulenterilly - racism and the current general culture of anti Chn sentiment was a major factor.
    57
  8. YES and a lot of them are going "home" - if their studies were paid ofr the the Chn Gvt the deal is "come home is we need you" and Chn are starting to tell them to come home
    50
  9. CHINESE CULTURE HAS THE BELIEF THAT KNOWLEDGE IS THE PROPERTY OF MANKIND this does not sit with the Western culture of "This is exclusively mine to profit from" I learned this on a degree program about ancient Chinese philosophy and always wondered how it manifested in the modern world.
    47
  10. One of my neighbours has a brand new Dongfeng Forthing evo t5 - its a €25k mid sised SUV. The build quality is shockingly good. Its as good as a €60k Mercedes only the paint finish is better. Ive not seen a paint finish as good outside a classic car show.
    43
  11. ASML are moving to France which is less inclined to bow the knee to the US. And they said if the US go after the French govt, they will relocate to China.
    37
  12. China is 55% of their business. The US is 5%
    32
  13. I think ASML are being very VERY optimistic there - I think its more like 5 years. This is largely because ASML are unable to invest as much in R&D due to lower revenue as a result of not being able to sell to China and China having essentially unlimited R&D budget.
    29
  14. Here i Bulgaria we have $12k EV's and the $28k one my neighbour has got looks as good as a BMW or Merc for build quality, staggering how good it is
    28
  15.  @michaele4830  TBH the US usually steals the idea or the US govt funds the research/ US businesses almost never come up with a good idea. But they are good at commercialising other peoples ideas - or they are when there is no competition
    28
  16. Dont worry bud, neither can the UK, my home country. Its so embarrassing. We have to face facts, the UK [ and the west in general ] cant make anything. If the UK want a high speed railway, just get the Chinese to build it - at least we GET a railway.
    26
  17. That is NOT the Am3ric4n way
    25
  18. "ITS MORE IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND CHINA" 4 years ago I did the first year of a degree program in Ancient Chinese Philosophy - I immediately realised you can NOT understand China without knowing Chinese philosophy and you can NOT understand Chinese manufacturing unless you understand China. If you think about China or Chinas manufacturing with Western mind - you will be completely wrong. What shocks me is how many US leaders have ZERO idea about China.
    20
  19. My father is a BAD person. But he is an astonishing scholar of history and geopolitics and he predicted pretty much everything that has come to pass. And he predicted it in the 70's and 80's.

  22.  @huskywr240  I 100% agree. None of this is for the benefit of the E U or the other countries you have the bases in, its for the benefit of the U S
    16
  23. Former S CLass Mercedes driver for 25 years - My neighbour has a BYD something - its along name I cant remember - its shockingly good, better than Tesla, maybe not as good as Polstar?!?!? But he paid €28k for it not €78k
    15
  24. Am3ric4 is going to whine and cry and throw its toys out of the pram something rotten
    14
  25. HAHAHHHAHAHA
    14
  26. The Chinese had published books of building regulations 1,200 years ago whilst we were literally making mud huts.
    14
  27.  @joelturley4847  BRICS is 37% of global GDP - the G7 is 29%. In 1985 the G7 was 75% of global GDP. In 2022 BRICS was 33% of global GDP - now what were you saying about the loser club...???
    13
  28. WE DONT BUILD CARS PEOPLE WANT we build cars bosses and shareholders want to sell - vastly over prices massive SUV's Even the Am3ric4ns are getting sick of them
    13
  29.  @fannyalbi9040  But its not though is it - thats just half of it the rest is context and facts about China.
    12
  30. ME - "OHH charts!!!" :-D
    12
  31. I had a doctor who was clearly on his 2nd day without a shower or sleep misdiagnosed me as having a ruptured liver - it turned out to be my throat bleeding. I had ruptured blood vessels from coughing. It had no consequences for me but it goes to show you...
    11
  32. THE WORLDS NO 1 SELLING CHIP is the 8051 Microcontroller - an 8 bit chip used to control everything from washing machines to car engines NOT the NVIDIA H100
    11
  33.  @Justspinwin  Im not complaining - just saying that is happening thats all
    11
  34. Well thats the thing about those leopards - they do be hungry
    10
  35.  @kevintewey1157  Have you tries MOONSOT's "Kimi". its what Google should be if they made it better instead of worse. I LOVE it. Another Chinese AI.
    10
  36.  @chunniu3936  - Subcontract it to the Chinese, at least it will be functional.
    10
  37.  @nanyanguo1  Actually if you read down my comments - its BOTH. Chn is recalling its chip design PhD's. But also many scientists are leaving as they dont like the current climate in the country.

  38. They have created a perenial rice - you dont ahve to re plant it. It grows every year from the old plant. Imagine the labour and energy saving in that. The also have dry rice, does not need the fields to be flooded.
    8
  39.  @marcc1830  REALLY bad graphic - lie one of those colour blindness tests
    7
  40.  @babahanuman83  Unlike Am3ric4 Europe has a choice, it will likely screw it up, mostly because it does what the US tells it. But Europe manufactures the world's luxury goods and people in the emerging empires want those goods. If the EU unhitches itself from the US and concentrates on making luxury goods it has a bright future as it will rise alongside the rising nations. But the US has a zero sum view and if it cant be No1 NO ONE CAN The sanctions on Russia were to hurt the EU not Russia.
    7
  41. Thats not true.
    5
  42.  @AnotherExtraFist  BINGO a person who understands that the US needs the EU and Russia at war to make the EU dependent on the US and not a competitor - which it would be if it had access to the Russian mineral and energy reserves.
    5
  43. FOR 100 YEARS THE U S HAS OFFERED THE WORLD 8OM8S AND DEBT now China is offering trade and infrastructure and the U S has NO way of countering that
    5
  44.  @hungrysurfer9471  Yeah but there agin - dont invade Ukraine
    4
  45.  @FunnyBunny-pd5xx  No problem. I'm no fan of NATO and especially Am3ric4. And I blame the US for the war. But Russia DID have the choice to not invade, hundreds of people have been unlived, cities ruined, farm land unfit to be farmed for human food due to the contamination. It did NOT need to happen. NATO did this, Am3ric4 did that but ultimately Russia sent the tanks across the border...

  46. QUESTION....!?!?!? Do you think China will buy all Columbia's Coffee and Oil now Trump has blackmailed Columbia with tariffs...??? Columbia's coffee is among the best in the world and there is a coffee shortage in China I believe?
    4
  47. OH the U5A will be angry if it cant bully you, thats what it likes to do
    4
  48. China is a 3000 year old country fully PLANNING to be here in another 3000 years Am3ric4 is a 250 year old country planning to make a profit next quarter
    4
  49. Things that go boom mostly
    4
  50. Because its easier to spend $1 Billion buying up family homes and apartments and renting them to people at ever-increasing rents and the value of the property going up every year at 10% than it is to spend $800 million building a bridge and getting $200 million profit
    4
  51.  @nanyanguo1  for some it is - for others " if their studies were paid ofr the the Chn Gvt the deal is "come home is we need you" and Chn are starting to tell them to come home"
    4
  52.  @ncgn13  HAHAHAH thats genuinely funny
    4
  53.  @nanyanguo1  OK good explanation
    4
  54. OZEMPIC is about $85 a month here in my EU country
    4
  55. CHINA WATCHED THE USA BANKRUPT THE USSR and it vowed it would never happen to them - so they integrated every part of the US economy into their own Meaning the US could never engage in either a cold or a hot war with China
    3
  56. THE SINGLE BIGGEST MISTAKE THE WEST MAKES is thinking the Chinese think like we do - they DONT. Xi will have been more worried about the recent floods than US competition or tariffs. Different people - different priorities - different philosophies
    3
  57. The scale of what they do in China is simply mind-blowing. They are the logistic Gods of the universe. They can build a hospital in 11 days on sight cos they have standardised it and its all built in a factory line, they just arrive on site with 300 bulldozers and 50 cranes and 2000 men, who have all done it 50 times before and 12 days later patients walk in.
    3
  58. MY BIGGEST WORRY FOR THE WORLD is the fact Am3ric4 will in NO WAY be able to cope psychologically with losing its position as global No1 It is going to start SO MANY wars over this
    3
  59. QUESTION....!?!?!? Do you think China will buy all Columbia's Coffee and Oil now Trump has blackmailed Columbia with tariffs...??? Columbia's coffee is among the best in the world and there is a coffee shortage in China I believe?

  60. Its why the HS2 train line i the UK cost £100 billion and was abandoned - no one wanted their view spoiled by a train so they had to burry it in endless tunnels You cant upset middle class voters
    3
  61.  @CrucesNomad1  No it wont be fine
    3
  62. AM3RIC4 HAS LOCKED ITSELF OUT OF THE REST OF THE WOLRD who wants to deal with the US when 1) It the past not the future 2) Its toxic - G4Z4 3) It stole Russia's $$$ 4) It will sanction you if it feels like it 5) It will put tariffs on you when it feels like it 6) It will break any trade agreement with you when it feels like it
    3
  63. I DROVE S CLASS MERCEDES for 25 years - I had 5 of them. I would NEVER buy another - way overpriced for plastic crap. My neighbour has an S650 Maybach €200k, it has a fake leather dashboard, chromed plastic switches and air vents, and more RGB lighting than a Twitch streamer's bedroom. Another neighbour has a €28k Chinese EV and honestly is 80% as good as the Maybach. WESTERN CAR COMPANIES ARE CRUISING ON PAST NAME RECOGNITION

  64. As someone pointed out "NO people don't become more conservative as they get older, never have. Just wealthy [conservative] people live a lot longer than miners and steel mill workers or poor people"
    3
  65. WEAPONIZING THE $USD to the extent they have was a BAD idea for the US
    2
  66.  @EsromNhira-vw1vq  Many in the EU dont - thats why the far right just did so well in the EU elections. Im NOT far right, but I understand their issue. They are poorer cos the US said "sanction Russia cos we say so" everyone knew it would not work. If sanctions worked NK would be a democracy.

  67.  @davidlazarus67  Its NOT permanent - see my comments above
    2
  68.  @antwango  Hi Im not actually in Columbia - Im an author in Europe but I thought the cost of Coffee was going up a lot in China, consumption is apparently going up by 30% per year and I thought China was having. supply difficulties keeping up with the exploding demand. I dont mean empty shelves so much as high prices. According to the internet "9.03% [price] since the beginning of 2025,"
    2
  69. " is not a serious country anymore:" well said - its a hyper financialised oligarchy. Everything is done for the further enrichment of the rich - even if it damages the country and the institutions.
    2
  70.  @kavinho  YES - 10 points to that man. The excess $$$ are not getting "soaked up" by international demand
    2
  71. THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE IT Am3ric4 is losing control of the global reserve currency - whilst the global reserve remains the $USD
    2
  72. YEP - the Am3ric4n military is a fighting military its a money extraction and transfer militery
    2
  73. Thats not quite true - its when the empire has STARTED collapsing that the Hubris and Arrogance kick in. An empire at its peak is still intellectual and responsive, but as soon as it starts to slide into the abyss it becomes arrogant and defensive, and it hastens the collapse. If Hubris and Arrogance are present - the empire is already in decline.

  74.  @hengongchua6250  Tens of Thousands Indians are said to be waiting for any visa - y9u cant draw conclusions from this
    2
  75. THE US MILITARY IS ENTIRELY OBSOLETE they have 4 nuclear carriers in the Red Sea area and they cant keep it open cos the Houthi have an ali express drone buyer plus account This is the Maxim Gun moment of the 21st century
    2
  76. NO - China bad is all you are allowed to hear
    2
  77.  @ZweiZwolf  The problem in the UK is that all trains use the same lines, freight, commuter and high speed. So its not about saving time - its about getting the high speed trains off the tracks with the freight and commuter trains cos the system is at 130% of capacity and the load on the system is literally wearing the system out as well as posing a safety risk. It needs the slow stuff on one system and the high speed stuff on another.
    2
  78.  @elliekwong3180  I am most definitely NOT blaming the doctors. I am criticising the system.
    2
  79.  @fidesedquivide3486  Dude go look at a Huawei Stelios S9, its 5 X better than any car Tesla has to offer " Chinese love to copy and lower the quality of products they copy". NO dude - they lead the way in everything now, the west and especially Am3ric4 is so far behind. Am3ric4 does NOT make 2nm chips - Taiwan makes them for Am3ric4 on machines made in the Netherlands - Am3ric4 is the CUSTOMER they are not "Am3ric4n Chips" as you keep claiming. You are an ex empire living in a fantasy world where your media lies to you that you are still king of the castle
    2
  80.  @geoff9858  Ok this is kinda my job, this is my opinion. China will become globally dominant through soft power and raising other countries [continenets] up with it - Africa and South America. The entire balance of the globe will shift over the next 25 years America is truly fkd long term - it has nothing to offer the world except 6om6s and the world is sick of those. The EU is probably fkd but does not have to be - it makes the worlds luxury goods and the people in the upcoming nations WANT luxury goods, it could ahve a good furute if it does not mess it up. Russia will become the world mineral mine - its the only place you can dig lots of stuff up and not annoy voters cos there are none, the population density is close to zero in the bits with minerals. India -- its really hard to say as its politically dependant, it has potential but it also has the potential to destroy itself along ideological lines. The single biggest problem the world faces if the US being TOTALY unable to cope with its loss of position. The $USD relies on being the reserve to have value - that's ending right now. The US solves everything with 6om6s so expect a LOT of violence initiated by the US.
    2
  81. IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT FOR 3 YEARS I knew this was coming - China has been sucking up $USD and cashing out of $USD bonds etc. I knew they had a plan to take control of the reserve currency whilst allowing it to remain the $USD - I just could not figure out HOW they intended to do it
    2
  82. ITALY HAS ALREADY BANNED IT Meloni sucking up to Trump and Musk
    2
  83. IN 15 YEARS WE WILL ALL GET UBI paid for by China so we can keep buying the stuff they design and make - cos the West wont have ANY economy left... We will all rely on Chinese benefit payments

  84.  @peanut0brain  I live in Burgas Bulgaria now. $165 a month rent for a beach front apartment, 10% flat rate income tax, free quality healthcare, busy thriving high streets, 300 days of sunshine a year.
    2
  85. I HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR 3 YEARS the US has just had the Maxim Gun moment of the 21st century Everything it owns is suddenly obsolete
    2
  86. THROUGH THE LAW OF UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES this little car led to Am3ric4 losing all access to Africas mineral resources
    2
  87. Dont let china stress you out. If it is you are thinking of it as another Am3ric4 - its NOT. They think differently, they are not a threat to Am3ric4 liek Am3ric4 is to the world.
    2
  88.  @seeker2118  EXACTLY!!! Am3ric4ns the failing US want to be told that China is a joke and collapsing because their individual egos are directly tied up with the No1 position of the US.
    2
  89. YES - the 100% sanctions on Chinese EV's led, through a chain of events - all logical and far-sighted, to Am3ric4 losing all control in Africa. Here is a synopsys: China in response to 100% tariffs has stopped buying US assets and treasury bonds The problem for China is the $800 billion trade surplus - they collect $3 billion a day they need to do something with, its no use to them just collecting it> So they are giving it in $USD to African countries to pay off the $USD loans and the country can pay BACK the loan in either local currency or Yuan ALTERNATIVELY Instead of paying back the loan they can spend the money on chinese green energy products in a kind of Chinese Martial plan This deprives the US of $800 billion a year AND essentially pays off the African countries debt for them AND gives the African countries essentially free / subsidised renewable energy AND solves Chinese green energy overproduction caused by the US 100% ttariffs AND it Lockes the US out of Africa If you have been struggling under 40 years of US debt and someone just pays it off and gives you dirt cheap renewable energy are you going to trade with the country that gave you 40 years of crashing debt of the one who paid it off and gave you infinite free electricity…???? I’m not sure Biden and Co expected the result of the 100% tariffs to be total loss of control over Africa

  91. I STARTED WRITING A BOOK 4 YEARS AGO and actually this was a central premise of the book

  92.  @themiddlekingdom9121  Its not actually - its the sheer size of Turkey and the low cost of production. It would collapse the EU.

  93. One day Peter Zeihan will talk about carpentry and you'll think "OMG this guy knows NOTHING and he talks with such certainty as if he is the world expert on carpentry - if he lies like this about carpentry he is probably lying about everything" And he is. He is utterly clueless. I know about China and I know he knows nothing. Brits said he knows nothing about Britain. Experts on Russia say the same. He will get around to carpentry one day.

  96. Dont forget the 6om6s, the US makes great 6om6s...!!!
    1
  97. Its not actually Sinophobia by the Govt. The $USD only has value cos the US is global No1. So its used as the reserve. If the US is not No1, there is nothing to back up the $USD - they dont make anything, they dont ADD VALUE. So the USD will crash if they are not No1. SO the US endlessly damages over countries to stop them from competing. The sanctions on Russia were much more about damaging the EU then stopping the war.
    1
  98. I would say the biggest thing Westerners, especially Am3ric4ns, get wrong about China is "Chinese culture teaches peace and prosperity for all humans". They think Chinese people think like they do.

  102.  @jasonb444  The invasion was orchestrated by the US to damage the EU. The EU has an easy way out of this - stop sucking up to Am3ric4. THAT is the cause of all the EU's problems. The EU has a manufacturing base and a good educated population, it has good transport links and great universities. The EU makes the worlds luxury goods and by 2030 there will be 2 BILLION consumers outside the US. Its the US that is destroying the EU

  103.  @fanily4072  Its not a thing - stop believing right-wing propaganda
    1
  104.  @MrNickjberry  HAHAHAH Am3ric4 lost the mineral rights to almost the WHOLE of Africa as a result of the Chips Act backfiring when China used the $USD it normally buys US bonds with to pay off the $USD debt of half of Africa
    1
  105.  @MrNickjberry  In 5 years the US wont have chip making capabilities.

  106. AM3RIC4 LOOSES THE FOLLOWING EVERY SINGLE YEAR The US effectively gets poorer by $4 trillion every year. $1 trillion on the military $1 trillion on national debt interest $1 trillion on balance of trade deficit $1 Trillion skimmed off by the rich as their 2.5% of GDP
    1
  107.  @davidlazarus67  YES the sanctions condemned the West to fall behind NOT keep ahead. If you are going to impose the sanctions then you need to government fund ASML with $10 billion a year for R&D. Sanctions ALWAYS stifle innovation - 100% tariffs on Chinese cars mean Am3ric4ns will be driving $200k cars in 15 years that are face lift versions of today's models that are facelift versions of cars developed in the 2000's I believe China has a prototype EUV machine
    1
  108. EXACTLY - also - The $USD only has value cos the US is global No1. So its used as the reserve. If the US is not No1, there is nothing to back up the $USD - they dont make anything, they dont ADD VALUE. So the USD will crash if they are not No1. SO the US endlessly damages over countries to stop them from competing. The sanctions on Russia were much more about damaging the EU then stopping the war.

  118. The US asked Mitsubishi under Biden to come and build shipyards - they said "NO - you don't have the qualifications or the skilled people necessary". Bidens lot asked them to bring people from Japan - they said NO you will try and steal them like you did with the TSMC chip fab in Arizona and out people will end up stuck here when we need them in Japan The US has NOT invested in its people for 40 years, and now flipping burgers is a challenging technical job

  119.  @DailyBeatings  Capitalism is a revolutionary force, the more you embrace it - the shorter your empire will be. The Joint Stock Corporation is an Infinite Greed Machine - and once it stops devouring outside your boarders, it will turn inward and devour the home country, its people first and then its government and then finally its military. When you have 4 nuclear carriers in the Red Sea nad you cant keep open cos 6 guys in sandals have an Ali Express Drome Buyer Pluss account - the infinite greed machine has eaten your military and thats it, its over at that point.

  121. I did a degree program in ancient Chinese philosophy - it was offered FOC by the Uni of Toronto over the pandemic. Two things I very quickly realised: 1) You cant understand Chinese politics unless you know their ancient philosophy, China IS a 3000 year old civilisation and it draws on that ever day 2) The UK media, politicians and more worryingly "experts" have NO IDEA about China, they think China thinks as they do - THEY DO NOT...!!!

  126.  @CrucesNomad1  I'm an author on psychology and the collapse of civilisations. You should get some help with the emotional problems you are going to face over the next decade. Am3ric4 is an ex empire, you are about to enter sigmoid collapse and its going to hurt you flag emoji people the hardest. Denial of reality is the WORST way to deal with what is coming. You wont be fine, you are not fine now.

  131. I USED TO COLLECT CUT STONES no one collects diamonds - they are meaningless and next to worthless - people collect either coloured stones or fancy cuts of synthetics I used to collect fancy cuts by the world champion gem stone cutters - if you are going for cut you want the MOST perfect stone to show off the cut, so you go for synthetic. Others collect rare natural and I have a couple of very rare untreated natural hot pink sapphires. But in the industry, NO ONE is interested in diamonds

  134.  @FAFOrednickinsell  It must be genuinly difficult for him. Cos 30 eyars ago the entire world DID revolve around Am3ric4. It was all important all dominant. He will know for sure that the Am3ric4n empire has already ended, 805 of the world's media dont talk about the US from one week to the next. 2.7% of China's GDP is exporting to the US. 12% of Chinas exports are tho the US which means 88% are to OTHER countries. He must have his head in his hands at what the US has become.

  135.  @FAFOrednickinsell  YEAH - get lost US. You have 800 militery bases around the world. Am3ric4 lives in 1998 where they are still all powerful.

  140. Boeing is the world's most perfect example of what happenes in capitalism. Monopoly - Govt subsidy - financialisation - more Govt subsidy -- corrupt monopoly - Govt bailout - more corruption - bigger Govt bailout - cant actually make the thing its supposed to make any longer its so corrupt -----> NATIONALISATION Cos ultimately the US needs planes and the ONE company making them can no longer make them We are just waiting on the nationalisation. Which 100% WILL happen eventually

  141. The EU does it cos the US tells it to and threatens it. Its not an independent decision. This is why a lot of people over here in the EU are getting sick of it, hence the rise of the far right. Every single person in the EU except the hyper-wealthy has got poorer for the sanctions on Russia and it has made NO difference except to make the EU weaker then the US - people are waking up to the fact this was the US intention all along. Im NOT far right but I understand why people are angry and frustrated. Sucking US **** is making everyone poor YES the US has overused the weaponisation of the $USD this time and its backfiring. Expect chaotic movements in global economics over the next 5 years

  142.  @hereticallyconscious  This is true but he £GBP had an empire to back its value - the US only has trust that its NO1 to back it and that is collapsing.

  148. NO - ditch the US - cos they will betray you anyway - and align with China. Buil the future together. China is not a zero sum game like the US. " I guess we'll just have to revert back to digging holes in the ground.." that's the US thinking instilled in you. You either win or you lose. With China you can build research facilities and new industries and even elect a socialist gove stand they wont overthrow your government. YOU guys are in the best position cos you are close to China
