I mean Reddit is a a corporate/military opinion/sentiment farm and a US Mil psyop conduit. Look up DARPA’s Social Media in Strategic Communications project.
US is so incredibly short sighted. Everyone is competing for the few viable, demographically supported consumption markets. After global retaliation, US goods world wide will no longer be competitive. China, Europe, S.Korea and Japan will happily replace the US market share. He should have stuck to painting his balls orange and eating crayons.
Twist, the Atlantic has screen shots.
Good point, China alone can get India driving in EV’s . One nagging thought Is that if US can’t have dominance by alliance, market control or coercion it will try to create dependence through war. If the world is at war, it knocks all directly involved parties way down the economic ladder, needing financial and industrial support from the US. Removes competition, creates highly indebted dependants , not unlike WW2. Speaking to some old timers , it’s clear that whenever the US economy falters they export war. Why would this be any different. Perhaps what we’re seeing with abandoning Europe to deal with Russia is a setup for EU to get economically degraded again. But if US is really trying to corner China as they say, leaving Europe vulnerable is counter productive as China will benefit.
