WEEEEEEE THANKS
the party controls that country. they think long term. we can't think till next week
I honestly dunno what level would wake up the Chinese to overthrow their rulers.
The US can only think 4 years ahead.
very easy to sow dissent and pad the pockets of western politicians
This is not quite true
but to some degree it unfortunatley is true
The lingering depression builds up and breaks out eventually
Even for docile peoples
and they are sitting on an untold amount of USD
it really depends how bad it gets
dude
More a function of time
ppl don;t just revold every time there is a depression. lol
Not just intensity
One would hope.. but the spirit mighta been bred out of them.
they never had spirit to begin with
are you aware of their famous philosophies?
Yes they did.. at least in ancient history.
one and all devised to keep the peasants in line
If they start starving, and dying in the millions, they may, *may* overthrow their government.
But they’ll just replace it with yet another form of despotism that promises bread.
just hoading the USD, waiting to the day when they flood the market with all that inflation from 20 yrs of quantive easing
you think confuscianist chinks were anything other than a slave to their nobles?
theyve always been like that
Not in a *timely* manner
content to lay down and be kicked
But eventually
We have a much smaller world tho
And exposure to other cultures
they can but won't
So the time required will likely be accelerated
@Laucivol only peasants died under mao
if the urbanite chinks died en masse
theyd change their tune
communist gov is playing both sides against each other; creates a limited affluent class to use western capitalism to fund their develoipment whille leving the rest as peasants
Which is the group that needs to rebel - the peasants.
No.
