China hits back at Canada with fresh agriculture tariffs

[Menthol]

Here's an explanation of the Mar-a-Lago Accord in simple terms:

If you work harder, your boss might be able to afford a new Ferrari.

If third-world countries work harder, the U.S. will reach a GDP per capita of $100,000 while doing nothing.

Look at Argentina, that's the destiny of third-world countries.

The battle between third world countries and the USA is like a workers' union versus company management.

 

[Menthol]

The management sees that the workers are becoming wealthier, which reduces their profits and bonuses.

This issue needs to be addressed.

Workers should remain poor because that's where they belong.

It's also an incentive for the workers to work harder, to make the management even wealthier.

Selling empty dream to the workers.

A Chinese Self-Driving Car Company Stole A Massive Trove Of US Data​

The Trump administration is rethinking how it deals with Chinese-linked tech firms after a short-lived self-driving truck company was found to have stolen a vast trove of U.S. intellectual property.
But beneath its rapid rise, TuSimple’s dual presence in the U.S. and China created vulnerabilities. According to a Wall Street Journal report, February 2022, the company signed a national security agreement with the U.S. government after concerns emerged about its Chinese ties and potential for technology transfer.

The agreement, enforced by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), required TuSimple to separate its U.S. operations and technology from China-based employees and partners, build firewalls, and prohibit the sharing of intellectual property.

Yet, just a week after signing, TuSimple transferred a trove of sensitive data, which included test results and technical blueprints—to Beijing-owned Foton, a major Chinese truck manufacturer.

Seriously?

TuSimple was founded by a Chinese businessman.

It's a multinational company with a presence in the United States, China, and Europe.

I don't know who is stealing from whom since they are basically the ones working and developing an autonomous driving system for trucks.

It's like asking who Microsoft stole Windows 11 from. Seriously? Windows 11 was developed by Microsoft. Microsoft has offices and research centers around the globe. Does Microsoft steal from other countries?


From what I see in this case, the USA is truly a dying empire.

They're complaining about an international collaboration that used to be very common worldwide.

They're even complaining about a very small thing.

If you know psychology, what does this signify?

This is spot on. The US suffers no rivals. You are to know your place. The US manages the global economy and geopolitics so the US and victors of WWII stay atop.. This is worse than imperial. This is supremacist imperialism. The US is offering China much if they betray the rest of East Asia and the Global South. "China can have a seat at the big boy table if China sells out and allows the US to control the globe with America's City of London buddies and fake populist Republicans. China must know their place as the junior partner. If they get out of line, then the fate of Saddam awaits for them. Throw dollars or bitcoin at China, China knows what is 'best' for them - conform and submit."

George Carlin would be sent to a El Salvador gulag for un-American activities.

The United States has been an ethno-state of Anglo-Americans with Northern European to circle the wagons. (The old PDF was supposed to get the Pakistanis to support the Bush War on Terror. It was a trash site over a decade ago. Many members support for China is only a herding technique.) George Carlin did not fall for the bullsh*t.

 

[Mero]

The scapegoat for the deep state has been Jews - Soros, as of late. Before that it was Rothschild. The enemy to the xenophobic nativist Anglo-Americans - immigrants and foreigners. So the US runs on the fake victimhood of the US population. Victims of successful Chinese, rich Arabs, unified Europe. The US ruins Latin America with no to socialism to help the poor - Chavez was "evil". No to capitalism for them in Latin Americans owning their own resources fully and having their own wall streets and capitalists to compete with 'Merica. Rich rivals, that is China, and sine China is rich, they are cheating 'merica.

China, if you want to get away with an attack on the dollar and help Iran. The United States is very vulnerable geopolitically with vast internal opposition to US involvement in Israel operations in terms of planning, supply and tag-teaming. If you want to help Iran, buy the comex and LME supply of silver, gold and platinum (or equivalent amount from the miners to run the comex and LME dry) enough to cause a squeeze and paper defaults.

You don't have many opportunities like this. America is caught with their pants down and Iran is not sure how long they can keep firing missiles at Israel.

China can say no more US bullying as a defense of their run on precious metals. And it would help Iran in the bargaining to stay free. China can both defeat the dollar empire and save Iran. This could be your last opportunity like this before one by one nations fall to deals with Trump to impose bitcoin.

 

[Mero]

You can start a Brics gold currency or a SCO gold currency or a gold-backed yuan. Get the announcement going to further cause a run on precious metals. This would also help in your trade dispute with the United States. United you stand, divided you fall.

United States is in conflict, internal and external. Tear apart the trade deal. China making the trade deal has allowed Trump to not worry about troubles with Iran. If China rejects the trade deal because of US actions against Iran, then Trump has more than one dispute at once and can't manage Iran without worrying about ramifications concerning the trade deal with China.

 

[Mero]

A perfect storm hitting the US.

(1) US has their pants down with the conflict with Iran. There is strong opposition to Trump among Democrats and MAGA are in revolt over Iran.

When Trump praises you, it means Trump is frightened of you. Trump praises China and Xi means China and Xi can end the American Empire and Dollar Empire by going to gold and silver. Trump wished child trafficker Maxwell well because she had dirt on Trump.

(2) The ex currency, former currency of nations is gold and silver. The Dollar is the present global currency and Trump afraid of the return to metal is proposing bitcoin to replace or back the dollar with the first move of a US crypto reserve.

A buying of metals, the abandoning of dollars/crypto, and a return to metal as money is the only thing that can stop Trump besides rejecting the trade deals and imposed disorder Trump is imposing. China caved and Iran could cave.

LME imposes new restrictions on holders of large positions

The action was taken to head off the development of a potential "corner" on the market or an "undesirable situation", it added.

The last opportunity to knock down the American Empire was the perfect storm of 2008. And China bailed out America.

Saving Trump would only mean that you would be at the table of the new system Trump is imposing with economic warfare to destroy the old system.

Saving the dollar again to this instance allow Trump to go to a bitcoin backed dollar is not a good look on China. China wasted the last opportunity to destroy the dollar and American Empire in 2008 by not rejecting dollars and going to gold, allowed for Trump to take over the US after Obama was scapegoated as the enemy.

You make the money, and get to be partners with Trump, though is a sell out to the suffering humanity.
