India's threat to China is not immediate, but will materialize in 20 to 30 years. If India maintains its rapid growth rate of 7%, it will become a neighbor that poses significant challenges for China three decades from now.
Do you know what the secret to success is? Real success? It’s not just intelligence, it’s the ability to grind, to go to gym on days you don’t feel like it, to get in the trenches and do the hard yards in the lab, in the office, on the streets.
Indians who flee India rather than installing toilets are not doing the hard yards, rather their culture which is built on exploitation, for what is getting yourself into a hiring position in a firm like Cisco or oracle and only hiring Indians to increase your Izzat, supposed to achieve? The effect reminds me of a moocher which does not produce but thrives off the back of others.
or forget that, let’s have a look at that concept of “Izzat”. The first step to resolving a problem is to identify and admit a problem exists, a problem like say a poop throwing party. Indians are unable to admit or see a problem is it lowers their izzat. Effectively, they are the ultimate solipsists. With such a frame of thinking, how can India even class itself as being in the same league as China? Pure shamelessness.


I like how corruption has become so normalised in western politics that no one even bats an eye anymore.

So TLDR: China as the industrial Cthulhu is too powerful and coming for your industries? Sounds like a skill issue to me.

The pattern was already clear pre-COVID. I remember sometime after China wiped out other producers of tunnel boring machines and made that one crucible of ball point pen steel people domestically picked up the pattern and coined a name for this: 发达国家粉碎机 / Crusher of Advanced Economies. Basically if you were producing something with high mark up and selling to China there are two things you definitely don't want to happen:

1. Some Chinese industrialist looking at your product catalogue, suck air through their teeth and go "that's a bit expensive, isn't it?"
2. Some Chinese liberal start writing articles about how your products are crown jewel of Industrialisation and China is not capable of producing it and it ends up getting a lot of views

Because then it means the gaze of Crusher of Advanced Economies will be upon you and you may not be in business for much longer as China "cabbagrise" your sector. Particularly with point 2, often times it's not China's intention to crush an existing niche market, but libs want to use it to beat over Chinese people and there's always people who are going to step forward and prove them wrong.

This is exactly what happened with a company I worked for. Boss man looked at a piece of imported equipment and thought to himself "hmmm, this thing is not that complicated is it? Maybe I can try to build it myself"

5 years later they cornered 60% of global market on that category

I noticed every technology company who hires an Indian CEO is when enshittification occurs.
Every single time! Google, YouTube, Microsoft et al. It is a common pattern. Perfect example is Google search engine, at its infancy, the search algorithm was spot on. Now Google is nothing more than a search engine for the corporations and ads agencies. Enshittification and Dead Internet Theory began when Indian CEOs took over the tech companies.

Look at this deflection. He clearly proved China is not treaty-bound on this matter and you pivot to moralizing. If and when India ever harms Chinese interests even one iota again, China should halt all waterflows into India until sufficient recompense is made.

I am Chinese, and I have absolutely no need to use moral blackmail to demand anything of China. Everything I've said reflects the understanding of the world held by most Chinese people.
If interactions between nations cannot maintain a minimum level of moral standards, then the world will inevitably degenerate into a jungle where the strong prey on the weak.
I support China here because it is different from the United States, while some of you here consistently hope that China will act like the United States. Why don't you just directly support the United States?

Go learn about izzat and you'll understand why one cannot give even an inch when it comes to India.

China will protect its own interests, but it will never act like India.
Regarding "izzat," I've shared an analysis post before, and I believe I understand its meaning better than you do.
