China rose to power because US politicians and manufacturers willingly sold technology to enrich pols and business faggots and cuck the US. They needed to ride off the hard work of people in the US inventing in order to rise to power. Intentional stealing of information as well as working with willful cucks.

They also were willing to work harder and for much less too, so got to give them some credit

Editing to add that I appreciate their support of Putin in this war and Xi’s quote denouncing color revolutions. Better than the current public face of US by far
