All those US in terminal collapse memes from tankies have to stop. The US has many problems, but is still the world's only superpower for a reason and will continue to be a formidable opponent for decades to come.

No, it's India, dummy

I mean choosing military cooperation with Taiwan would certainly be a fast death, they prefer military cooperation with the US (i.e., slow death).

It gets better:

Correct me in case I'm wrong but, what this is saying is that:

• Imports and exports both declined
• Residential purchases declined
• Sharp reduction in consumption growth
• Sharp reduction in public expenditure growth
• Equipment and intellectual property investments grew, but the latter not that much compared to the previous quarter

So basically, the only sector that is growing quickly - with a near 20% increase compared to the first quarter - is businesses buying equipment?

Why, when imports, exports, and consumption are ALL down?

not just that, the businesses buying equipment was because of a 8.9% decline in the previous quarter.

Let me see if I get this. China growth accelerate almost 2% from 4.5 to 6.3% and Western mainstream goes in a frenzy of gloom and doom about China. US grow accelerate 0.6% from 1.8 to 2.4% and mainstream journos a trowing a party.

He literally said the same thing 10 years ago. I think the PRC will outlast Zeihan.

I would lol if Ziehan gets off’d by Gordan for infringing on his ‘China collapsing’ turf.

"terminal collapse" is not really a thing, the US is chugging along at its usual pace.

But in no world would a country that is only the 2nd largest economy and without even plurality share of global industry be considered "an only superpower"!

It is simply an insufficient amount of power. Being the only superpower would imply surpassing plurality and having comfortable majority in all power indications, even China is far from that.

US as "Only Superpower" ended when MBS of Saudi Arabia openly defies Biden and independently reapproach Iran reset with Chinese diplomatic help. Arguably ended even earlier with US spastic trade war which is a sign of insecurity and election of Trump faux right-wing populism.

Being a super power is the only way so "Century of humiliation" is not happening again. China must not only got plurality in all tech and industries but a monopoly in all industries is required, similar to US before de-industrialization.
