      Well you have Deepseek to prove it.
      And while the US is turning their attention to them, harrassing and taunting them they can not start a war with them. They will lose as it is.
      And China will only get stronger and widen the gap in tech and military advances. They have also increased their military expenses to 5% which is massive.
      Same for Russia.
      The US are a dying empire, losing parts of the global cake to both of them.
      They play dangerous games and would welcome Europe and Russia or Taiwan get into an armed conflict that only benefits them.
      I hope our vasal leaders realise that before it’s too late.
      The US doesn’t have friends, only interests.

      Good news is that US has now outsourced so many essential industries to China that they might not be physically capable of going to war.

        It’ll take at least a decade to rebuild what they’ve lost in terms of industrial capacity, in my opinion. And then they have to find skilled workers. I’m not so sure that this generation or the next, want to work in factories, at least in North America.
