I guess the US should have just let Imperial Japan take China since apparently now all you need to do is want to grab territory real bad and that is enough justification.
At the very end you will just end up justifying it telling yourself “if I didn’t do it, maybe they do it to me” everything is sunshine and rainbows until anyone have enough power to fuck up someone else WO consequences. It’s just human nature maybe not just human but the price of being alive.
Yeah, without taking responsibility, accepting consequences, owning up to one’s actions and failures, facing the actual shame , etc ; there’s no way anyone would change their behaviour and erroneous ways.
Maybe China should aid Ukraine. And Palestine and Global South countries being invaded. They could free Tibet, and not attack Taiwan, Philippines, Vietnam etc while they’re at it.
Then move production to somewhere else. Mexico and Central America would be my first choice, hell its probably cheaper too since ya save on transport expenses.
Still expensive than manufacturing in China, I didn’t have the exact number but the only god big capitalists obey it’s money. Even Apple manufactures its products in China, if Apple does so there is no other viable option to maximize profits.
Edit: I can’t predict the future but as I see it, big uncontrolled corps greed will have big consequences in the future.
And how much of that is actual price versus, subsidized price? China has a geopolitical interest in maintaining the status qou, but based of the gradual shift towards places like Vietnam I suspect the only reason its still cheaper in China is subsidies. And well I dont factor that into my math, mostly cause its a soft factor that can be eliminated.
Industrial subsidies, they are pretty standard but as I understand it China is rather generous with them. But when China runs into problems I dont think they are solvent enough to keep them up.

We’ll stop aiding Ukraine when the invaders leave, thanks.

What if I told you the Mexican American war was also not justified

Well that sure was incoherent
I think we just saw an AI hallucinate
“It’s always been justified and besides, look how they do it” is how institutions like slavery get perpetuated.

Didn’t have the balls to use your real account?

We really shouldnt be trading with China IMO, better to start cutting off that gangrenous limb as soon as possible.
Pretty hard, big corps want to cut expenses to maximize profits, and there is no alternative to China prices on labor and supply chains.

What kind of subsidy? Like the Chinese state paying an UBI?
