This whole thread is hilarious though. So many fearful fools just parroting propaganda and doubling down when called on it.

    Impostor syndrome is when you physically can't stop yourself from impersonating other people, or something.

      He denied deleting it until I gave him a Screenshot and then he doubled down and said I have imposter syndrome because I made it in the west.

    Japan taking over world culturally with manga/anime. One Piece and Dragon Ball is top in South America, France, etc. Soft power wins the hearts and minds of countries. China can't do that because the CCP won't allow it.

    Tagline material.

      Is anime still growing in popularity? I feel like way less people are into it now. Maybe I just aged out of it 🤔

        I'd say it's more mainstream. Like half of my coworkers' kids are apparently really into Demon Slayer.

    Dudes the tantrum that dude had. Went back and edited all his comments to hide his bigotry, deleted dozens of them, and just started outright lying. Then he either blocked me or deleted all of them, I’m thinking blocked me.

    What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little b***h? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in Harvard’s linguistics school, and I've been involved in numerous secret trips to AES countries, and I have over 47 confirmed visits.

    The last paragraph in the OP article is really something:

    The most crucial difference between China's balance-sheet recession and Japan's may be emotional. Throughout Japan's recovery, markets worked from a cooperative ideological mindset, believing free trade was good. As China begins its recovery, that cooperation has turned adversarial. Ultimately, that may mean the difference between China continuing its rise or staying stuck in a debt trap. In the end, technology may not save China if it doesn't have the right friends to buy it all.

    Yes, it is the free market that is cooperative and state planning that is adversarial. Makes perfect sense.

      Maybe China shouldn't do what they did?
