Lol, I had a feeling it was a translation thing, but your English is great.
This kind of brings me back to thinking that this situation, although scary and shit, could be a great opportunity for a better world. Like, for one thing, maybe we shouldn’t be buying cheap plastic shit made with slave labour in China. We definitely shouldn’t be in a situation where we can’t exist without domestic production of necessary things.
I guess that we consider the risk greater if we shut them out. What did you mean by measurement?
If that’s the case then why are we still trading with China? Why isn’t tiktok banned? Russia is being openly punished and rejected but China, apparently so close with them, are not?
I understood that capitalism, despite it’s flaws is the way the world has decided to prevent wars. If countries are so intertwined financially it can’t be of benefit to either party to war. If China values our business they won’t fuck with us. If Chinese companies and parties own interests in our country they won’t destroy it or even act against us, as aside from anything else we can sanction them by taking this property without any renumeration.
Tell me more (genuinely)
More like Russia. 2.0
China isn’t our friend. The whole ‘make it more financially appealing for the world to not war’ is not working. China isn’t influencing the world to be decent and at peace. They’re Putin’s allies and therefore our enemies.
When the us comes crawling back we should make them pay reparations for any economic or other damages before they’re welcomed back.
Sadly it would probably have been way better for the world if they had stuck to defrauding kids charities. Its my belief that capitalism keeps evil people busy amassing money and fighting each other in the business sphere, rather than doing worse to amass power and influence.

They’re only falling apart because trump took a wrecking ball to them.
Also barred from running charities because he stole from kids with cancer, wasn’t it?
Men are scared that women will laugh at them , women are scared that men will kill them.
That’s the problem when all our tech comes from China and they’re blatantly not trustworthy or even really trying to pretend they are. There’s no real option to keep buying from them, no matter the circumstances.
Europe needs to pivot to being heavily Eurocentric, protecting basic necessities, arming ourselves and moving towards supplying ourselves with everything possible. Let Ukraine into the EU and maybe have to abandon the invaded part. Trade with friendly countries, divest from trade with asshole countries and buckle up while the US/China/Russia probably attack weaker targets and make their asshole riviera.
We can’t keep relations as we have with countries which are not compatible with our Democratic values. All that’s happening is that countries with shitty ideals are using our openness and spirit of cooperation to manipulate and indoctrinate our people. That’s what’s happened in america and even if america rights itself somehow, it will go unpunished and almost unacknowledged like all the other shit.
We should set up some kinds of rules for engagement with other countries. Shitty actions, whether towards their own people or not, incur automatic trade penalties and other punishment. If these are open and standardized it can serve as a preventative. This all has to be presented publicly so low education people can understand what is going on and why. Im not advocating for censorship but there should be fact checking/ certifications that its not total shit - on EU news sources - and warnings on non-EU media etc, so people know it’s probably shit. Also we should allow reasonable Americans and others with our values to live and work in europe without all the usual BS.
