China’s doing this for the future of humanity, the world doesn’t need a rentier white supremacist with its knee on everyone’s neck. It appears that china is committed to depriving the US of its power “by any means necessary”.

tbh NASA hasn’t done anything of note recently and it’s all Space X or Blue Origin doing deliveries to the ISS.

Amongst the reasons why the U.S. is cannibalising it’s allies and stealing their money is that they lose Chinese trade.

No 2025 trade statistics yet of course, but in 2023, the latest year such stats are readily available, China exported $2m+ worth of soybeans to the U.S. It would be hilarious if in 2025 America now has a trade deficit in soybeans with China.

The Dutch made a catastrophic mistake thinking voting shares are the mission critical assets while in reality, it is the production facilities and output that are mission critical.

They're gonna have to fight Nexperia China's physical possession with an expensive piece of paper.

How they gonna pay the staff in Europe, let alone pay the bribes to European elites who facilitated this theft? They will Run down the company capital locked in European banks before this quarter ends And require government bailouts.


This is what happens when you persecute, enslavement, bully and humiliate Chinese within your own borders and expect Chinese in China to behave the same way only to have reality hit you like a dongfeng express.Let trump think on this as he’s screaming begging china not to isolate the west from rare earths:
“Wars begin when you will, but they do not end when you please," from Niccolò Machiavelli's Florentine Histories.

That’s the problem with the financial bros — they think that virtual wealth trumps physical assets and that only the former is worth their efforts because of high ROI. Their entire plan hinges on China playing by their stupid rules now that the board has been flipped, they are left sitting in a pile of worthless monopoly money.

That's dope. So I guess the Western auto companies are mostly going to start shutting down in a few weeks?

Rather doubtful that this will be realized, but let's see.

I was thinking why the Dutch are so insistent that they committed the crime alone and not on America's instructions.

Aside from direct application of Hanlon's Razor: they're just stupid, one theory that could make sense is they know about China's anti-sanction law that require China retaliate against individuals or entities that implement or assist with sanctions against China, they might believe by framing the theft as a Dutch national security thing, and not as part of US sanctions, they can avoid Chinese retaliation by arguing it doesn't trigger China's anti-sanction law.

This would also be compatible with Hanlon's Razor since it's also r*tarded.

Gotta love the capitalist “just on time” production capacity; makes them easier to pressure.

US is pioneer in drone technology those large surveillance/attack drones. I think he is referring to FPV and Shaheed type drones which are not relevant to US since US aim will not be to prolong the conflict and US made small drones will not be cheaper for selling to allies.
US can make 7 to 8 million automobiles to put his example. It should not have difficulty in hundreds of thousands of cruise missiles. it is high speed, bigger warhead that shortern the conflict. Cruise missiles are much easier to deploy than Shaheed type drone that important factor.

I really hate the obsession with quadcopters that the Ukrainian war started. Now everyone who watched a short clip on Reddit thinks that these cheap loitering munition is the future of warfare. The only reason why these kinds of munitions do so well there is because both sides are severly underequipped. Now every major European defence company is investing in quadcopters while sacrificing much more high-tech complex wespon systems.

I know exactly what the US Dutch Colonies are gambling on.

With most of Nexperia's chips manufactured in Europe but packaged in China, neither side of the company's operations would be able to quickly find alternative partners

The Europeans are betting that the Chinese will blink first. That they will come crawling back to give Nexperia and Nexperia China for free to them.
