China is nowhere near having the comprehensive national power the United States possesses. Not even close.

Keep telling yourself that. China is already the more powerful country. The events in the next two decades will only strengthen this statement not weaken it.

When I say that China is the most powerful nation state, I'm not talking about military inventory. The US has had a humongous military budget for decades, China has just recently become equivalently sized as an economy, and even then, is spending a fraction of its budget on the military versus the US.

What I mean is that China has the most capacity and ability of any country to adapt to extreme challenges and emerge victorious. China has the most educated human resources under its control, its system is disciplined and can orient society in a way that can handle major challenges during periods of chaos that the West simply can't. China is by far the greatest industrial superpower in the world, if it switched its economy to a war time footing, it would quickly surpass America's military inventory within 5 years.

The West is still in denial about this reality. There is always this notion that as long as the West is hostile to China or if they deny China something, China will be on its way to collapse and will be put back into that little bottle and disappear. That's not going to happen. China has managed to revive as a great power and civilization, and is quickly becoming a developed country with immense resources. Think about a Germany or Japan but 10X bigger. China is here as the world's greatest nation state and will not be going away, the rest of the world will just have to adjust to this reality.

You talk like the west (USA and Europe) are not a superpower on its own regard. Its a multipolar world plain and simple.

Undoubtedly, the West combined is still more powerful than China. But China is the most powerful single state, especially when you consider its capacity to achieve results. Either way, China is here to stay as a great power and will not be going anywhere, and that is my point. Just like the US emerged in the 19th century, China is here to stay.

There is a new iron curtain in Europe now and thats all Putins fault.

Europe is a political concept, not a physical concept. You can drive from Beijing to London in your car. The only countries of Europe you cannot drive to from Beijing in your car are Iceland and Ireland. By definition, Europe and Asia are one continent, not two separate continents. And those who say they are are racists.

No it’s not. China definitely doesn’t have the military, allies/leadership, or soft power of the US. Economically, you don’t have the innovative capability of the United States, and Chinas GDP will see a steady decline in the decades ahead. Meanwhile, US power will continue to accelerate. The US has now successfully decapitated Russia for the next several decades.

And we are here to stay as well. You have to live with us. Its main reason why China doesnt dare to support Russia. It would be a war decleration against Europe and Russia is not worth it.

Russians cant drive to Europe. They cant even fly.

US is in The New World. The New World cannot compare with The Old World. China is in The Old World. China dominates The Old World. Who dominates The Old World, who dominates Earth.

Calling out a racist is not an insult. It asking you to be better. Hating a people simply because they are a different colour or race or religion is disgusting and belongs to ancient times not 2022. So readjust your meter and stop blaming me for calling you out as a ra ist European. You must know what the rest of Europe thinks of Greeks.... so being labelled as you are by the Europeans isn't nice and then you go and do the same to others. Shame
Can you please stop attacking greeks on a racial level. There are some very dark greeks, but they are mostly white. And most europeans consider them white. And who cares what they are, europeans are very diverse people, It really makes no difference.

It was claimed as a protest that Russian cosmonauts going to the International Space Station wore yellow and blue overalls, which are also the colors of the Ukrainian flag. Cosmonauts made a statement about the controversial images and said that it is not about Ukraine.

It is very dire that cosmonauts even feel the need to make a statement on this matter. Unfortunately, war propaganda can put even scientists' careers at risk. Those who spread these rumors, of course, do not care who they hurt.
