I'm not in corporate so I assumed it to be true since my only insight into that world is Wolf of Wall Street, haha.
Would be great if this somehow causes the downfall of the DPP. Trudeau's party almost got decimated in Canada because of all the hatred of the Indian immigrants that he let in until Trump opened his big mouth and started talking about the US annexing Canada. Trudeau's opposition party were big Trump guys causing Trudeau's party to eke out a win. Maybe a lesson for China here? ie, tone down the rhetoric somewhat regarding Taiwan and let the DPP destroy themselves.
That guy is right in one sense, Huawei is helping build out cell networks Ukraine.
Francis Fukuyama and his End of History and the Last Man thesis was one of the required readings for one of my political theory courses 14 years ago. I remember my professor was an advocate of Straussian methodology and theory, and was actually a student of Allan Bloom, who was a direct student of Leo Strauss at the University of Chicago--Strauss heavily influenced Irving Kristol, a founding member of the neoconservative movement--Bloom groomed political figures like Paul Wolfowitz and William Kristol. One of the interesting arguments by Fukuyama that I do think aged well was that the End of History, as a result of the collapse of the Soviet Union, and hence communism would also nurture the Last Man mentality in Western liberal democracies. The last man mentality, Nietzsche's form of nihilism, would arise in the West as a result of society getting too comfortable and entitled, and you could also argue here too much American Exceptionalism. So I say, Fukuyama got the Last Man mentality part fundamentally correct, and the American foreign policies and the Trump Administration's idiotic domestic policies are the product of Western nihilism for the past 30 years.

The implicit messaging to white beta male incels who are needed for future wars against China is that Anglo American hegemony over east Asia is the only solution to their Inceldom. The fantasy of having East Asian sex slaves is about the same level as Indian rape fantasies of Albanian women in corporate America.

Well I think something have already started in China for awhile. But these are more like individual social media initiatives rather than state-directed.
