Men are judged by the power of their nations. Asian men will be respected when China which is not a western vassal becomes truly rich and powerful country and achieve dominance in its own region. By the same virtue, white men will probably lose their privillage in other countries the more powerful China becomes.

No, it's because a lot of that terrible K-Pop/starvation look (Not restricted to Korea of course, also popular in HK and somewhat in mainland)
Do those guys look powerful to you?
On top of this, there aren't a lot of well-known/mainstream current top male Chinese athletes (on the level of Shohei Othani, or Yao Ming in past)

Interesting, exactly on the day of the Chinese Embassy bombing in Belgrade 25 years ago.

(Xi's first European tour visit after 5 years, only Serbia, Hungary, and France going to be visited - quite telling).

When Russians hit the power grid, they are monsters, when NATO does it, they are peacekeepers.

Strictly-objectively speaking, "Turkish-American alliance" died the minute those moronic American officials decided to support terrorist groups in ME that threaten Turkish security. Those groups are even openly in bed with Russia and Iran but for some unknown ..ing reason America still protects them. Nowadays they even train said terrorists with MV-22B Ospreys and Bradleys.

They don't have any Mideast policy whatsoever, They dug their own grave and now they're paying for it. They lost Turkey and Iraq, and possibly soon enough they're going to lose the Gulf as well. These countries will keep the existing military ties of course, but that will be it. The U.S. will only have Israel on their side for obvious reasons but even then that's only a one sided alliance.

The hegemon is clearly losing blood fast. The downfall is not going to happen anytime soon due to the sheer size of their power, but at least they're now dead set on going that path.

The funniest thing is the US is supporting Marxist insurgents in both Syria and Iran. Namely the PKK in Syria and the MEK in Iran.
That isn't even the worst of it with regards to Turkey. The attempted coup against Erdogan a couple years ago also has all the hallmarks of being sponsored by the US.


The US policy in the Middle East is pretty simple. Keep the local powers weak so the oil can be extracted cheaply. For much the same reason Libya was destroyed.


I suspect within this generation we will see another major war in the Middle East. And it will be Egypt and Turkey against Israel.


The US collapse as a global hegemon is still not assured but the US political class sure seem to be working on making it happen.

The funny thing is, all they had to do to stay in Turkey's good grace was to keep their existing policies. I.e. don't try to tip the balance in the Aegean, and don't ever support terrorist groups, whose goals are to try to split the country. To give you some context, those groups present themselves to the West as representatives of the Kurds but their actions mainly effect Kurds (suicide bombing, killing civilians, etc.).

would you look at this load of crap?

And then they have a "surprise pikachu face" reaction whenever these weapons end up in the hands up their non-state adversaries:

(who then end up shooting down passenger planes, of which even the threat that is presented is a HUGE issue.)

These dumbasses don't have any sort of Middle East policy whatsoever. All they do is alienating their allies and pushing them to the other side.

This is actually a good sign for India.

Chinese industrialization followed a similar path. Only Big national SOE could afford top level German/Japanese industrial equipment early on. Smaller organizations (provincial and early private enterprises) looked to Taiwan and Korea for 2nd tier equipment as it was more affordable. It was still better than the old equipment they had.

If India is importing more from China, they are spending their money wisely.

Never bow down to China? You've already handed what China demanded of Aksai Chin in 2020. Zang Nan is more tricky, but its gonna be eventually reunited with Xizang.


Yeah, India is such a "powerful country". India attempted to bully Pakistan in 2019, but got their asses kicked by the PAF. In 2020, India had attempted to bully the PLA, and got their asses handed to them

If you can, avoid Boeing planes.
Things are only gonna get worse from how it is now lol.

Here is just one stream about it as well as on US military as well (yes, can't 100% trust and just take all they say as true, but along with a lot of other streams and signs, it's really, really bad lol).

So let me get this straight:

Huawei 5G is a national security risk.
BYD EVs are a national security risk.
CATL battery plants are a National security risk.
Even friggin harbor cranes are national security risks.

But selling “excess” active service military gear to Chinese “military collectors” is not a national security risk?
