American hegemony in black and white


The US is fine with China’s economic success, as long as it’s on Washington’s terms
By Timur Fomenko, a political analyst

The US is so wrapped up on its protectionist, America First doctrine that it cannot be seen to be making concessions. And, looking at Yellen’s choice of words, we see the “catch” – China is only permitted to grow on the condition that it accepts “US economic leadership” – in other terms, the US’ political, economic, and military dominance....

...Today, the US wants to benefit from the Chinese market, but only if the terms are favourable for American companies and capital, and is therefore attempting to force capitulation. This is why so much of US policy concerning China is devoted to try and destroy or contain the bulk of China’s own high-end industries and companies.

For example, the US does not want China to develop its own commercial passenger jets, such as the C919; it wants Beijing to rely eternally on Boeing. It does not want China to develop its own microchip-making capabilities, as this will undermine the US control over the industry. You get the picture. The US had little issue with China dominating low-end cheap manufacturing that makes trivial and unimportant goods such as throwaway plastic hotel combs or nail clippers. That’s the kind of economic engagement Washington wants, where the balance of profits is in its favour, but the burden of consumer and labour exploitation is on the Chinese.

Finally, it might be worth noting that the US does not tolerate any economic competitor, even among allied states. Hence it has shown little remorse for the destruction and deindustrialization of the German economy, or when it crippled Japan with the 1985 Plaza Accord. The only acceptable China to the US is a weak China, that serves no purpose other than to be a cash cow from which all profits, incentive and talent are vacuumed home. China sees this as completely unacceptable, akin to a new ‘Century of Humiliation’ and this is why no ‘economic truce’ is possible if it is predicated on China’s surrender to American terms.  RT

Above are parts of an article by Fomenko in RT. The evil American Empire with a face like Yellen, is telling China and the rest of the world that it intends to be the ruler of the whole world economically and militarily and would put down any country that dares to challenge this American dominance. They had taken down Japan and Germany and now going to take down China and Russia. India and the rest of the emerging economies would face the same threat and viciousness of the evil Empire when their turns come.

The evil Americans are not about competition. The lies about freedom to choose, democracy and freedom to compete are only on American terms, that is, the Americans sit on top of the pile and everyone below can do as they like without upsetting the American's dominance. And they would coerce the rest of the world through lies, cheating, force and the might of the American war machine. They are now taking down their mask of civility, not pretending to be the good guys anymore. They are the international gangsters and the rest of the world must live under their mafia rules aka rules based order that only the silly would believe and sing in praise. And they want economic leadership by printing money and not producing goods of value for the world. They want tech leadership by suppressing Chinese techs but unable to compete in technology, no 5G, no hypersonic missiles, unable to even produce a better app than TikTok. And now their lies about having been to the moon are being exposed.

It is good that the rest of the world are marching behind China and Russia to stand up to the world's number one terrorist and gangster, the evil American Empire. The pressure and threats against their European allies are so overbearing that Europe is also rebelling and wanting out, to be free from the demonic evil American Empire.

Down with the Evil American Empire.

China is starting to pay the USA back in its own coin while the US$ hegemony is not gone yet. China is going after Micron for a start. I think China has carefully calibrated its move to strike back where it will hurt most. China's cyberspace regulator said it would conduct a cybersecurity review of products sold by Micron Technology to 'prevent hidden risk and safeguard national security'. Good move by China.

The USA is hysterica over such a move, claiming 'China lacks transparency in many conventions of law and policy and this is one'. The USA knows this is going to prove costly for both sides playing the same game of using 'national security issues' to support their moves. Now, what about the USA's unproven national security case against Huawei? What transparency and evidence has the USA provided other than just hype up hysteria to destroy competition. Rest assured, Micron will not be the last, as China is slowly moving away from relying wholly on USA chip makers and shedding reliance on them. Micron has a 10% market in its overall sales worldwide in China.

After China's move to discontinue the use of all window based computers in Government circles last year, and the country moving into 5G usage, the USA knows its spying game using windows platform and still relying on 4G is no longer workable, and China knows for a fact that the USA had, for decades, been playing the same game. China has therefore disabled the usual channels available for cyber espionage by they USA and by migrating into 5G, the USA has now no control in planting backdoors. However, China probably already have evidence that products made by USA companies and sold in China are taking over the task of espionage. This is a wise tactical move, and China must have found evidence of such new threats looming over its national security. After all, the claims of 'national security threat' is not that easy to prove, and it works both ways.

Since the USA is now accusing anything made in China as a spying platform - mobile phones, quayside giant cranes, substation transformers, solar panels, washing machines, bread toasters, toilet seat covers, weather balloons etc, it is high time China pays back the USA in its own coin.

Anything, rules and conventions made by man can be made by any man.

Powers that be in USA is panicking. The game is up & they know it. Just keeping up pretendses to lull the citizens, lest they will be a revolt.

The rest of the world are not blind & dumb. They see what happened to Russia & fear they'll be the next sanction target. Time to cut losses & protect themselves.

The U.S.-Philippines drills, involving more than 17,500 troops, ended less than flawlessly this week when a High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, or Himars, rocket launcher failed to hit its target with all six of its rockets. - WSJ, April 28

The US claim to having large military spending and bases all over the world is for US security??

When the time comes to evacuate US citizens from war torn countries: Trapped Americans In Sudan "Shocked & Disgusted" - Left By Biden To Fend For Themselves

'A surprisingly blunt report voicing intense criticism toward the Biden administration has been issued by CNN Friday, which writes, "As the crisis in Sudan continues to unfold, there is mounting anger among Americans who feel abandoned by the US government and left to navigate the complicated and dangerous situation on their own."

CNN further points out that robust evacuation efforts are underway by many other countries. As we detailed below, a C-130 evac flight sent by Turkey even took on small arms fire while landing outside the capital. And the Chinese government has said it has successfully evacuated at least 1,300 of its nationals thus far, with state media confirming evacuation operations ongoing by "land and sea".'

'Another American stuck in Sudan called the embassy and State Department "useless". "To be honest with you, the State Department was useless, utterly useless throughout this entire period," a man named Imad said in an interview. "We expected the Department to provide some kind of guidance, but the guidance was the template, just shelter in place, no critical information being provided.'

'Meanwhile, Chinese media pundits are mocking and gloating...where is Captain America??'

China's Foreign Ministry has confirmed it is sending the PLA Navy to help evacuate Chinese nationals from Sudan, with defense ministry spokesman Tan Kefei announcing Thursday that that more navy ships are on their way.

The USA is openly saying that it will not be evacuating its citizens from Sudan and that they have to protect themselves by remaining indoors or find other ways themselves to get out of Sudan. They did the same thing in Afghanistan.

China meanwhile already airlifted some Chinese nationals out of Sudan, and the Chinese spokesperson told the Chinese community not to worry as more facilities for evacuations are on the way, and that 'the Chinese Embassy will be the last to leave' if the worst come to the worst. That is the Chinese Government's way of looking after its citizens.

The USA citizens meanwhile are outraged by the indifferent attitude of their Government.
