I want them to win. And they will. Short of global nuclear war they can’t lose. Venture capital can’t even dream of competing with central planning. Not even a question.
It’s not really trust. It’s more like hate. I hate this country. I hate what it’s turned into. I hate the oligarchy. I hate the captured politicians. I hate that the supposed opposition to actual fascists is a bunch of whinging cunts who’s primary concerns are about rules and norms. I hate that we are everything our propaganda told us about the rest of the world. I hate that our entire economic system is just a jenga stack of pyramid schemes.
We are a failed state. And if what I type on my phone helps our geopolitical “adversaries” get even 1 human hairs worth of advantage on this shithole then I’ll give it gladly.
That doesn’t make any sense, though. The PRC has a Socialist Market Economy, while the US is diving into Neoliberalism and austerity, and relies on Financial Capital (and Imperialism, by extension) while China relies on Industrial Capital.
I don’t see this as the USA turning into China. China has many problematic aspects, and being an immigrant or an LGBTQ+ person in China is probably not fun, but China at this point is less stupid and understands competitiveness. China would not defund all its science overnight, hamstring its technology and trash its whole economy with tariffs on goods it cannot produce domestically, withdraw vaccines in the face of new epidemics, and cancel sustainable energy projects and funding while denying climate science. The new US Government is just shooting the country in the foot again and again.
Cool. I’d rather China have it than some American megacorp.
I trust China more.
Lol
I get not bootlicking American daddies but why would you bootlick a hostile foreign actor?!
“I get not bootlicking America, so long as you still accept that America is better than everyone else”
You are clearly new around here lol

Which one to trust more is at least debatable. In the end, neither can be trusted.

This is interesting. It looks like the USA is turning into China, but the hate of that there’s a turning makes China look more appealing?

Sees America doing American things in an extremely American way:
“What are we, a bunch of Asians!”
