I don't sleep

2020-12-30 15:48:10 UTC  

It is morning, mini 😂 rest easy

2020-12-30 15:48:29 UTC  

I mean, they'd win either way

2020-12-30 15:48:30 UTC  

I woke up a while ago but went to do some work

2020-12-30 15:48:40 UTC  

Read The Kill Chain by Christian Brose, it's a great read

Most of the public still dismisses China as harmless. In a military sense they are. In an economic sense they are the powerhouse that America either needs to learn to play tough with or lose.

2020-12-30 15:49:02 UTC  

They are still winning. I dont think enough americans aware of the doom day

2020-12-30 15:49:11 UTC  

which is what Trump did by tariffing the shit out of China.

@Knotty false

2020-12-30 15:49:21 UTC  

Their military is better than ours

2020-12-30 15:49:23 UTC  

Many thanks

Give me one minute

2020-12-30 15:49:53 UTC  

okay I am willing to listen to this

2020-12-30 15:50:03 UTC  

Exactly. I think people are aware that China is an economic powerhouse, but we are not incentivized to pull back. We rely on China too much

2020-12-30 15:50:37 UTC  

you can blame Reagan, Bush sr and jr, Clinton, and Obama for that.

2020-12-30 15:50:55 UTC  

A lot of people are complacent as well. Lots of people don't care enough to check if what they're buying is made in China for example.

2020-12-30 15:51:03 UTC  

That i also agree too. China doesnt broadcast the things they are doing. It's always better to overestimate your opponent than underestimate

<:RotatedSemiFullyAutomatic:761629946564575242> if we go to war I'm ready tho

2020-12-30 15:52:34 UTC  

NGL I am not downloading shit

2020-12-30 15:52:42 UTC  

I'm only a highschooler who can't drive yet so I'm not the most educated, but there are some good cards

2020-12-30 15:52:46 UTC  

No downloads...

2020-12-30 15:52:52 UTC  

oh sorry

2020-12-30 15:52:56 UTC  

my message was too long

2020-12-30 15:53:22 UTC  

my bad, won't happen again

2020-12-30 15:53:28 UTC  

okay so let me explain that military might is not just measured in man power, which the USA still beats China with the worlds largest Unofficial military and the second largest official military.

2020-12-30 15:53:33 UTC  

China also has a large market for rare earth metals too

2020-12-30 15:53:36 UTC  

Definitely. And the cheap pricing of chinese products is working against us. I am in full support of a trade war and forcing american companies to pull back, even if it meant we have to agree to buy goods at a higher price. But for some people? Not so much

2020-12-30 15:54:01 UTC  

I will debate this one with you in discord if you want 🙂 I am in general 1 🙂

2020-12-30 15:54:18 UTC  

oh rich people would just price it more but they are aware that they would get less customers. poor people already don't make much money

2020-12-30 15:54:22 UTC  

plus I got 30 minutes to kill before my wife and I head off

2020-12-30 15:54:37 UTC  

idk when trump did a steel tarrif on china and it worked

2020-12-30 15:54:37 UTC  

Is this okay to post?

2020-12-30 15:54:43 UTC  

how much isn't much money?

2020-12-30 15:54:45 UTC  

China is more ready than us, from my perspective. They have mandatory services, and more people to spare.

2020-12-30 15:55:03 UTC  

I know that, and it isn't just measured in the number of platforms we have either
