you are literally powerless to make them do anything. this is known as impotent range.

  There really has been an influx of low quality comments in the last ~18 months (or perhaps that's just a semi-noob illusion). Either way, your comment really added nothing at all to the discussion - no counter points, just a poorly considered insult. So here's the thing - China is a self deluding autocracy that has repeatedly purged competency from its institutions and government (the extent to which this is true far exceeds that of any western nation), I don't need to exert any control in order for that titanic economic system to fail - I just don't. The entire system is built on lies told to superiors - exaggerated, repackaged and passed on to the next level, all the way up to Xi. Everything they build depends on stolen technology, but they lack the tacit domain knowledge required to correctly implement what they steal; Cha bu duo simply is not good enough. Not only can they never compete on merits, they can't even reach a baseline of competency. That system will fail all by itself, and the more nationalistic they become (and that's a feedback loop) the faster that western support will erode, and the faster the collapse. The ground falling away like a Ponzi. What need have I for... range?

    yeah, the collapse is coming, any day now. just like the US federal reserve, the US federal debt, the US stock market... it's all going to collapse any day now. give me a break. both the US and china doomsayers are perennially WRONG. they're all fueled by the same stupid handful of youtube channels that spout the same shit over and over and over again.
