Your propaganda is not super convincing either.
You are defending an empire in decline remember.
China has a shrinking population. That's aging. To claim that it's "winning" anything is delusional. In this game there are no winners. This is a game of hyper consumption fueled by unbridled fiat printing and debt. Not to mention that practically all nation states are implementing the surveillance state model, not the least China...
The United States is totally dependent on China for almost every critical mineral.
Trump is awakening to the challenge but most of the rest of USA is in a coma.
Power projection and empire is about the ability to make and do things.
Neoliberalised globalised USA has lost the ability to make and do most things.
China is raising the age of retirement from 50 for women and 55 for men.
China also leads massively in robotics.
Name a G7 nation where the population isn't aging. Silence.
The USA/Trump are desperately copying Chinas autocratic state capitalism and state surveillance, because Chinas model is winning.
The 'freedoms and rights' citizens demand in wealthy dominant nations are built upon the subjugation of and theft from other nations and peoples.
China has won the trade war.
China has won the energy race.
China has the productive capacity.
USA has a dying USD and a military crippled by a lack of secure supply chains for things like refined rare earths.
But @Cje95 is paid to spin it differently.
