China’s top diplomat has urged Japan and South Korea to foster a sense of “strategic autonomy” from the West and cooperate with Beijing to “revitalize Asia,” amid rising tensions between China and the two neighboring American allies.
The West is so fucked. No more Petro Dollar, not enough time for a working CDBC (I think?), its civilization has been forcefully separated into small individualized groups that are no longer capable of speaking to each other or feeling compassion for each other, capitalist vultures just waiting to profit off of the collapse, politicians are paid, putting on a show, geriatric millionaires are reliving 80s straight to TV political thrillers on cheap stages. Europe is too dependant on the US, the Ukraine war is a meat grinder proxy war. Protests are erupting in France, Switzerland, Belgium and I suspect that’s not the last we’re going to see of mass protests and police brutality in Europe. Meanwhile Western governments are headed to become more authoritarian to stay in power unless Europe turns away from transatlantic submission to face the reality of a multipolar order. I worry there will be lots of conflict from this because certain people want to stay in power. (Not a dog whistle in any specific direction.)
BRICS is happening. Africa is rising up to flight Western economic colonialism by demanding fair treatment. The current global economic system leads to rising nationalism, people no longer raising kids, social systems failing, slave labor in poor countries, religious radicalism and unnecessary culture clashes (fixable, if anyone in charge actually gave a fuck about proper integration with dignity).
Imperialism is more than just direct military involvement. It has more to do with building global spheres of influence via the merging of bank and finance capital and the export of capital (debt). Invading countries is one way to accomplish this but not the only way.

You’re free to keep bathing yourself in ignorance. Hope it’s comfy.
The western civilization is going to collapse aaaaany moment now… just waaait for it… (1000 years later)… aaaany moment now…
I should add that I’m in no way underestimating authoritarian imperialist ambitions of Russia/China as another source for danger to freedom.

China doesn’t have any imperialist ambitions so don’t worry about it.
There is no imperialism in China Sing Se 🤓
Ah very nice, racist stereotypes.

Who did China invade lately? Meanwhile America invades like 50 countries in the past 50 years

It’s a good thing that China regularly forgives debt, and that nearly all debt issues in the third world arise from Western finance instead.
