First Niger Oil Bound for China Blocked in West Africa Border Dispute

We learned, they are about to

They'll probably learn how to not give a frick about the world's bleeding hearts and will do what they want. No matter how brutal. They'll probably just open it up and drag us/Europe in to defend the Africans and we'll be at war with them on African land instead of theirs or ours.

We will see. Its a concern.

The Chinese think in centuries when we think in years.

And Xi has been running circles around us for years.

People have been saying they are in imminent collapse mode for a decade at least now, and they keep expanding, get more advanced and aggressive militarily, and keep snapping up more and more of the world's natural resources.

I understand the data regarding their birth rates and the worry of a collapse in population due to the supposed disastrous nature of the 1 child policy. I understand the Evergrande stuff.

But they just keep expanding. They keep taking over Africa at alarming rates. They are moving into South American and even the Caribbean.

Their empty massive cities and population miscalculation which will create a shortage in farming for the elderly is proving that.

Hes a genius.

China cannot and has not ever been able to handle even Japan.

They are powerful but they are grunts. Yes they have smart people, they should, they have 9 billion but they are not what you see on tv. The are great at reverse engineering and figuring out another mans creation.

China also shares as much information at North Korea so if there was a problem, you wouldnt know and our government wouldnt tell you because of how the military operates.

Taking over and ruling a country takes the removal of all prior culture. Unless they are willing to commit genocide on the largest scale we have ever seen in human history they will eventually regret setting up so many assets there.

If China is in bad of shape as you say they are, then a wounded animal is the most dangerous one.

And we are talking about a nation that does not give any singular fricks about what the rest of the world thinks about them.

They have made themselves so intertwined with us and other nations economically, that their collapse is our collapse.

If they decide to go all out...what are we gonna do about it?


We need to start detangling ourselves from them as much as possible.

Don't underestimate China, and they are not going all over the world bombing the piss out of people.

They don't want to rule Africa though, they just want all the minerals in the ground that are in Africa.

African resources - Yes
African people - No

That whole scene with Delroy Lindo is classic. Makes me laugh every time.
