It’s kind of hilarious how the west is basically cutting itself out of the global economy now. The thing western leaders don’t seem to comprehend is that the west doesn’t actually produce much of anything material nowadays. The west is largely just a consumer market for goods created outside the west, and as other countries are rapidly developing, western market becomes increasingly less relevant.

the west still produces a lot of IP, but guess what, that’s the easiest fucking thing to just steal.

At this point China surpasses the west both in quantity and quality of research. I expect we’ll be seeing a lot more west stealing from China than the other way around going forward.
