Trump threatens to blow apart entire G7 to protect Putin

That's definitely true, and the thought has crossed my mind before.
Anything an European company manages to sell in China is going to be a huge boost too. It's the damn IP laws that are a pain to work with, though. A Chinese company perfectly clones your product? Well, you're not going to win if you sue them.

Its almost as if he wants america out of a war as quickly as possible.

So making peace with russia is destroying the free world, but letting Ukraine and russia have a forever war isn't?
-
Pretty weird that you were "blown away by China" then... No need to get mad
‍
️My anecdotal experience is different than yours, but everything I've said is nothing but facts. China is a country of 1.4 billion people and 3.7 million sq mi, so obviously sentiment will vary. But I based my opinion on what I've personally seen and people I've talked to across half a dozen cities, so I feel pretty confident in my pessimism.

What kind of dumb ass uninformed comment is this. We all want the war to end. But with freedom, not more oppression
-
Right?
Russia could end the war it started right now. And leave. It chooses not to.

Pretty weird that you were “blown away by China” then…
You're clearly under the impression that this is something which has happened recently. And it's not. Which is really weird because I at no point in time said anything about this being a recent thing. That's your own bias and you're making yourself look like a douche because you're piling up your assumptions with each post..."oh, he must not talk to actual Chinese!" "oh, he must be one of these TikToker's!" "oh, I bet he's never even been to China!"
Clearly it's a wide and diverse country. Your pessimism singularly indicates that you gravitate towards the negative--not that China is in a bad spot, but that you're only choosing to see the bad...

it's the pee tape

Even better, South Korea

Out of the goodness oft his heart?

China is as a bad faith actor if not worse than the US. And that's saying something. Moreover, they are threatening another democracy (Taiwan) while being a dictatorship. What would be the EU stance in case of aggression? Ukraine being invaded is bad, but Taiwan is fine? That would be hypocrisy at it's worst
-
Your words isn't "action for change". These are nothing but empty internet barks. Are you saying you're ready to commit violence? I don't think so. Too many barkers but in reality nobody are biters. So save the empty words. Fascism is right in your face. In your neighborhood. What are you doing about it?
-
Who voted for that? Or alternatively, who didn't care enough to vote against it?
-
Also maybe EUaC (EU and Canada)? 🥹
-
The G6 should incorporate Ukraine, Taiwan, and Panama. Then extend a treaty of friendship to Blue States within America. America clearly has no (good) future, and the world will change because of it. Might as well make the most of it.
-
I am hoping that if the American dollar hyperinflates, Europe will blacklist billionaires and Muskcoin, instead only offering Euros for assets among non-billionaires. That will keep Europe insulated, and maybe allowing it to take a chunk of Red American flesh. They could also allow Blue States to swap dollars for Euros at a favorable rate for them, to rig the restructuring of America in the favor of non-fascists.
The Euro could become the Dollar of the future.

Replace fascism with... checks notes again... fascism...
What?

My assumptions were built off your original comment, in which you said it was recent and driven by XHS:
The realization came with TikTok ban. Soon as I heard that TikTok could be banned, I started looking for alternatives [...] I stumbled upon XHS [...] about a month before everyone else. I was absolutely fucking blown away by China
I don't know your life story and it didn't seem like a leap to think "He uses TikTok" and "It doesn't sound like he's been to China from his reaction". I could be wrong about those assumptions, but it wasn't unreasonable. It's pretty wild that you're trying to walk it back even though it's right there, verbatim.
Again, my intention wasn't a personal attack, I'm just trying to provide a counterpoint to the sentiment I often see; that China is a bastion of progress and everything I've been told is western propaganda. My anecdotal explanation is to show this isn't coming from what I read on CNN or second hand but my lived experiences in the country.
And if you want to think I'm a douche: go for it, more power to you. I just wanted to voice my thoughts on the matter.

Which war is America in, currently?

China would have to do a whole lot more than just "not support russia". As a starter, they'd need to start being transparent, honest, and not censor the ever loving shit out of all information from their country. Then they could stop genociding minorities.
