    China is an entire economy built on intellectual property thievery and slave labor. The whole thing, that’s they’re advantage. Theft and slavery. The Chinese CCP can fuck off into the sun. *edit: this post and article is about the ccp censoring it’s human rights abuses, and all the downvotes confirm the ccp is here and active on the fediverse itself attempting to do the precise same thing. the irony shouldn’t be lost.

      Americans are falling behind in everything because they’re their own worst enemy.

      They’ve become too corrupt, inefficient, and monopolistic.

      Of course, reality’s hard to accept, just as it was for the British.

          Because USA did exactly the same in the past. Take all the designs and ideas from somewhere else to build themselves up, then get ahead and turn around and forbid everyone else to use their stuff.

          China is now doing following that same plan. It wasn’t even hard. All they had to do was to say to give the designs and they’ll producer them cheaper. Now they’re the factory of the world. We knew this was going to happen but short term profit before long term consequences, right? A few tariffs aren’t going to stop this.

            I personally think it’s good that the USA did it back then and I think it’s good that China does it now.

            Independence and wealth for all.

      all the downvotes confirm the ccp is here

      Not all who disagree with you are paid by a government. Sometimes people just think your take is bad.
