“Thucydides Trap” = the two biggest boys on the block are going to fight; it’s inevitable.
There are a few things that are preventing that from happening with China.
We would defeat them in minutes. It might take a few days for them to realize it.
We are in the process of removing the prize. And we can easily obliterate what is remaining of the chip making capability.
Win, lose or draw; China loses. When you have an export driven economy (which is currently very fragile), you can’t piss off your biggest customer. Especially one that could make a few phone calls and have most of your customers boycott you.
Being a strategic friend would mean a much better future.
So China, play nice or we will slowly or maybe quickly grind your economy into dust.
Godbless you anon
The first sentence is startling. Combined with the second sentence, a real puzzle. What is an immediate defeat that takes three days to recognize?
Idea. Mess with their BeiDou Navigation Satellite System. Throw a Skinwalker Ranch-style spacetime "anomaly" bubble around each of their transmission satellites. Distort the timing signals so that any guided weapon relying on a realtime precision positioning signal misses its target. ... I'm describing a capability from the edge of science fiction, though.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Because we have done the unexpected. They have to play out the scenario and every permutation on how to come out on top or at least no worse off. It could take them 3 days to do that. All the while suspecting it is in vain, but self deluding to keep hope alive.
I see. War game simulation time on their supercomputer clusters. I overlooked that aspect.
You know, maybe it's better living life as an out-of-the loop civilian. But it kinda sucks to be always guessing as to the true state of the (classified) world. I once had a brief one-on-one chat with Tony Tether. He didn't tell me nothin' 'bout the cool toys on the inside.
A lot of the stuff you hear is Bull. It’s most often the stuff you don’t hear about that is real. You only hear about it when we use it and not always then.
And the name often changes. Generals and Trump like to that. Dial an effect becomes The "Discombobulator" .
Answer, after a two day think. We broke their military encryption.
There are multiple answers that fit the bill. Think about what are China’s major strengths and weaknesses.
EVERYONE, should be LISTENING to every word that comes out of "Promethean Action" Clean your teeth whatever ,BUT listen!

This headline explains everything. Wow. Awesome.
Great job by this team explaining what’s happening, not only about what happened during the China trip, but what’s going on that isn’t being properly or correctly reported.
Every time I watch one of her videos, I feel a little bit smarter.
Why does China get all our farmland?
I'd really like a precious metals backed (crypto) currency. Bonus if the technology platform behind it is MONERO
Governments will never allow this.
A metals coin would fixate the mass / weight and ratios and it cannot be changed until earth corporations start hauling back asteroids from the asteroid belt, which would be an enormous economic disruption. (imagine bringing back a solid gold asteroid the size of NYC? what that would do to gold prices) When that happens, we're going to have to have a global entity act like a DeBeers and control / regulate the slow introduction of refined into the market
