    Out of all the countries out there… China?!? is setting the example? (although still a bit late). The western world is going to shit. China is a rising Phoenix. What a fucking dystopia we live in. Because China is still a totalitarian regime.

      Realistically they don’t give a shit what Israel does, they only did it because of political (US ally/puppet) reasons

      They’re obviously doing this for PR. As soon as Trump declared Liberation Day, I knew China would use the opportunity to present themselves as the better trading partner. I have seen a recent survey of Europeans saying they trust China more than the US.

      But yeah, as recently revealed, the CIA has uncovered a plot by China to sit back, relax and watch the USA destroy itself.

        Pretty much, China realised you can catch more flies with honey rather than vinegar, and it worked. Everyone’s lining up to go to Beijing to kiss the ring, especially Europeans.

          Well one country is threatening to invade us every 6-ish months, and keeps trying to destroy every agreement we have with them. The other country is sticking to our deals, and doesn’t try to fuck us over every chance they get. I wonder why we like China more than USA…

            Yeah, my fear is that European leaders will get too comfortable switching from one hegemon to the other and the root issue of the EU not being able to stand on its own without some sort of guarantor won’t ever be solved.

            If China is hegemon, I don’t think the EU would appreciate the types of tribute they’d have to pay to Beijing
