Rare earths are not a manufacturing product, but a natural resource. That's not an applicable example here.
Also, China is more dependent on the rest of the world than vice-versa; China has power, but certainly hasn't brought anyone to their knees - when has that happened?
- rapsey 1y agoThe reason your original post was downvoted was because the events of the last few years have so thoroughly damaged your neoliberal ideas and of course this follow up just confirms how poorly you are informed.
- mmooss 1y agoIf I understand you, you have no argument but you feel threatened by what I say ? Generally we don't talk about up/downvoting on HN, but it's especially odd when someone else talks about it.
- rapsey 1y agoI have plenty of arguments but have learned arguing to be a complete waste of time. Neoliberals are experts at ignoring/dismissing real life evidence to maintain their thought bubbles. The point of my post was what it says, express why your thinking is no longer popular, even though it was main stream just a short while ago.
