So is this the big pivot, then? Like, they have finally beaten turbopoverty according to their Graphs And Charts and now are transitioning to the next formal stage of Marxian development?

all of USAmerican history is a struggle between states and the federal government over various issues. I agree that the protests are “really” about sovereignty and a refusal to integrate, and to the extent they are, they’re about *checks watch* 37 years too late. go yell at Maggie in hell

a context where they are violently attacking a communist government with the support of the United States department of state, Steve Bannon, the Proud Boys, and the protesters themselves are waving around the flags of expired colonial governments? That kind of context?

 Militarily: The US could probably have contained China for another 20 years or so if it weren’t for the GWOT/OIF. If Bush has done a pacific pivot then, the geopolitics could maybe have worked out until the US/JP/SK economies ran out of gas trying to make it work. Instead, the PLAN achieved technical parity with the USN in the 2010s (as a direct result of the shift to counterterrorism) and the Chinese economy continues to grow despite a contractionary trade war with the US.Economically: probably the neoliberals would have needed to pass a TPP-like by 2005 or so to form an economic bloc that could stand up to China. As an American, setting aside any “morality” of our demon cracker settler colonialist state, the basic problem is an unwillingness to acknowledge an end to the halcyon superpower days and an intense disagreement among the policy makers who half-understand it and keep changing policy on whether to go out with a bang or a whimper every 8 years or so. Like this poo poo with the NBA is a great illustration. In America, freedom belongs to consumers and is expressed through consumer decisions; when someone makes a political comment that enough consumers are mad about, they will get fired or muzzled or whatever. But Americans specifically (maybe Westerners in general) aren’t willing to acknowledge that 1.4b Chinese consumers also have opinions and will express them through the dollar, just as both anti-fascists do when they try to deplatform Milo or fascists when they successfully blackball Kaepernick or whatever. Anyway now social fascists of the liberal national security state think China can be repartitioned or broken like the Soviets and they’ll be proven wrong by history (just like they’re being proven wrong in Venezuela, Syria, etc.)

Ardennes posted:Yeah, I doubt it any of that would be possible considering up to 2014-2015 the DC establishment thought everything was okay and by then it was way way too late. Even if the War on Terror hadn’t happened we would have still kept on acting everything was fine because American corporations were still making a ton of cash. yeah only insane racist reactionary maniacs like pat buchanan cared about it in the 90s or 00s or whatever. weird how liberalism sows the seeds of its own destruction and it gives way to either futile fascist revanchists (Buchanan, the liberals freaking out about HK, etc.) or, uh, socialism

After 2011, China began an extensive blue water naval development in two stages: first, an iterative technical design stage of increasingly advanced ships and then a numerical buildup stage once it judged it had achieved technological equivalency with American designs. the Type 055 destroyer (for example) is technologically as advanced as any of its Western equivalents, and the PLAN has already commissioned six of them, with maybe two dozen planned in total. That’s a serious blue water surface fleet. In the same time period, we built three Zumwalts to shell goatherds.

“Democracy” and “human rights” aren’t real things, they’re just euphemisms for whether or not you tongue America’s geopolitical balls or not true democracy and real human rights are unattainable anywhere in the world until capitalism is defeated everywhere in the world
