Hear me out. We'll say no to their cheap trinkets and will stock Walmarts with shit that's 3x the cost. That'll show them!

Meanwhile this is with a backdrop of inflation that hasn't been seen in 40 years.

That is because a certain portion of the population thinks that their " righteousness " and so called " Morals " are more important than anything else , since even in a period of inflation they can still afford some of life's comfort.
While the general population are suffering , but that is not important since their moral standing is superior in their view and should be followed fervently as an infallible dogma.

We are in 2023, consider this:

- Civilians/Children killed by Chinese drones on TV, Social Media.
- Calls to sanctions, boycott campaigns, celebrities, associations, even indirectly encouraged by governements: How to ? Since there's chinese products everywhere ? Buying a chinese electrical car ?

=> You will see youtubers explaining how to identify the products mostly made in China, You will have listings websites, ranking per %of parts made in china. You will have advices for that, labelling, etc...

Try to think twice next time, and enjoy my inputs. So yet I'm expecting that spiegel info is more like false or faked.

China has the biggest vested interest in ensuring global supply chains remain functional; Who is it that maintains open and free shipping lanes again?
When you have 1.3 billion people to keep fed, you can't really fuck around and find out.

"China, Korea, Japan, Russia and Saudi Arabia are responsible for about 40% of food net imports"
-https://www.g20-insights.org/policy_briefs/global-food-security-and-market-stability-the-role-and-concerns-of-large-net-food-importers-and-exporters/

"You can't target civilian infrastructure!" morphs into "We'll starve a billion Chinese".

You good?

CCP pooped their paper, also abstained to vote in the recent UN resolution. Would be weird double standard if they give drones to Russia at the same time.

Basically asking Russia to leave ukraine and respect 1991 borders/treaty.

How it started.





How it's going.



Or are you saying that Chinese grain shipping containers are going to be spontaneously raided by grain pirates?

A little wet behind the ears this morning? Ok, we can do this in increments.

China depends on global shipping.
US military secures global shipping.
China gets involved in a proxy war vs the US.

Piracy would be the least of China problems.

some light viewing
