What a great metaphor for Europe. They’re going to experience a drop in their sense of value of what they think they’re worth to the world. You know the only reason why Europe thinks they can hold out and win is because of the arrogance they think people can't live without them. They look at like Asians who so want to be white supporting their fantasy but if you think about it Asians that worship white people as gods are operating on pure selfishness. It's not like they can conspire with others. Like the saying goes... There's no honor among thieves. Thieves operate on selfishness hence why no one, even within thieves, can trust them because priority number one is themselves. I never met a white worshipper who didn't ultimately see people of like mind as competition to white attention. They get jealous if they see another Asian getting more attention than they get from whites. Why do you think all pro-West Asian countries hate China? China is not kissing white butt and yet the West suffers from China derangement syndrome.
Europe too afraid of selling their big ticket advanced technology to big market developed countries like China so they're relegated to selling what China can buy from anyone else. Who's fault is that? But they want engineered economics when free market capitalism doesn't work in their favor. They want China locked into deals where China has to buy "x" amount from them no matter. They don't want China to be able to break commitments when they see fit like they regularly do. Look at how they don't have to follow their own environmental concerns when they suffer energy hardships like they would expect everyone else to.
