There is no "good way" to maintain a Technological Civilization. We are trapped in a cycle, and complaining about it is like complaining about old age, death and taxes, and everything else inevitable.

Hydroelectric destroyed species, wind destroy species, everything humans do wipes out species. Even on the best days, your "idea" for a more "sustainable Earth" is only marginally better. Many times its worse.

Environmental activists are the most tedious people ever.

I do not argue that China understands their unfaroable location. I just wrote that there is NOTHING they can DO about it. If they understood that, they would not make bone-head maneuvers like trying to control the global supply chain.

This is like trying to win the lottery by buying up all the tickets you can afford. This is LITERALLY what the Chinese did with Rare Earth just recently.

If you lived 80 years ago you would say Japan was a a cancer, overtaking every island and robbing every resources in the Pacific.

Or Napoleon, or going back in History another hundred "Trump".

Nothing ever changes, it just happens you are the bastard who don't like the way things going, and I am the bastard across of you who love the way things going.

AFAICT they don't really think becoming a world empire is feasible. They're mostly just projecting power in their back yard. For a while, they were doing things in Africa, but this was mostly investm...

China's terrible geographic position will keep them pinned to be a Regional power indefinitely. Regardless of what they DO.

Only a moron ignores the fact that China is trying to control the global supply chain, but fortunately for the rest of us they bit of more they can chew.

BRICS is not a Kumbaya effort, "let us all live in harmony". Another fortunately for us they involved South Africa and Iran, two non-starter "economies", because trying to take lead over from the US needs these failed states like a hole in your head.

I was born and I grew up in Europe, and the only way I will return there is I am dragged or dead.

Bot like that. Their 5-year Communist plan is always the same: long-term grand strategy to increase its global influence and potentially displace the U.S.-led world order.

They are ACTIVELY trying p BECOME what they hate, what they rally against: Global Dominance.

Or, I must be hallucinating.
