@glenhart9 @Terenceshen @SariArhoHavren Also, China is the country majority of the world respects today. China gave hope to the global south that you can challenge an evil hegemonic power that has been dictating and imposing it's will on them for years and rise without bowing to the US empire like Taiwan and others do.

@glenhart9 @Terenceshen @SariArhoHavren Is the US poorer than Singapore because its GDP per capita is half that of Singapore? You see how flawed GDP per capita as your childish measure of wealth really is?

@BRENDA5000 @mitchellvii The US just can't decouple in this day and age even if it wanted to. Trump tried it and failed. Now the strategy "decouple" has been changed to "derisking". This isn't the Cold War era where the US was the dominant power in the world with no major dependencies on other countries.

@mitchellvii China's leadership knows our cowardly Senate wouldn't allow a decoupling. We have half a government assuring our allies they won't let America win ---- every day.

@MsMelChen @FischerKing64 Integrating with China is one of the biggest U.S. blunders of all time. Many chances to decouple. The globalist communist cancer is responsible.

Another reason why Trump cannot afford to just walk into a summit and call Xi's regime what it is: America's economy is now so hopelessly entangled with the CCP's that full-throated honesty about the China threat triggers economic blowback and strategic suicide. This wasn't true in the Cold War, as I tell @marissastreit. Back then, the US and Soviets were economically decoupled. Hollywood made Red Dawn, Rocky IV, and a hundred other films openly calling them the evil empire. Reagan could label them the "focus of evil in the modern world" without the Soviet Union yanking the plug on semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, or rare earth magnets. We fought the ideological war with clarity because the economic one barely existed.

@NewsWire_US He must be smoking. There's absolutely nothing anyone can do about it if China were to go in now. No country has enough resources for a war with China. And a US-China war will have American homeland inevitably hit. Americans will directly feel such war inside the US. It's stupid

@_huia_ @emiljacob99 @xcanceluser @Noahpinion It's a fact backed by GDP growth data, critical tech sectors China dominates today, standard of living data and increased self reliance in many sectors during Xi's term in office. You have no logical counterargument, just name-calling Ad Hominem because you know I'm right.

@emiljacob99 @xcanceluser @Noahpinion Korea got richer after transitioning to democracy in 1980s. China's only advantage is population size, however, due to being already quite old and dictator Xi, China will not get richer. The only possibility to decrease the gap with West may happen if MAGA would ruin US, but I

@TheSmart1onX @IngrahamAngle There are 8,619 American companies in China, profiting from the Chinese market. If China was to have the kind of mindset you have, those companies would be wiped out.

@jakey_twister25 @MsMelChen She isn't smart enough to understand this. Chinese people don't spend US dollars or use US pricing system, hence measuring Chinese productivity through the lenses of the US by applying direct exhange rates when China is known for deliberately devaluing its currency is just dumb.

@MsMelChen There is a thing called the nominal GDP and another thing called the real GDP defined by purchasing power. USA leads in nominal GDP which is what this graph shows. But if you measure GDP by PPP, China might have a bigger economy.

As Trump heads to China to meet Xi, it’s time for a reality check on the Chinese economy. We’ve endured years of breathless talk about the “Asian century” and China’s inexorable rise. Elites couldn’t stop praising the “China model” with its state-led efficiency, gleaming infrastructure, and unstoppable momentum. That narrative has aged disastrously. So much so all the old pro-engagement business leaders have begun changing their tune to save face (Dimon, Dalio et al.) Even with reported 5% annual growth, China is not closing the gap with the US in nominal USD terms. Its GDP as a share of America’s peaked at 78% in 2021 and has fallen to just 64% in 2024. Yes the renminbi’s sharp depreciation against the dollar is true, but it begs the question of why did the currency weaken enough to slash China’s relative GDP by 14 percentage points in three years? Currency collapse is not a sign of strength. The RMB has recovered some ground over the past 18 months, yet deflation and chronic overcapacity will cap any sustained rally. With PPP adjustments, the gap closes but the US is still richer than China. Don’t listen to the blackpillers saying the US is collapsing or the “dollar dominance is ending.” Both countries have debt problems but China knows how to creatively hide it. Markets tell the starkest truth. US equities (S&P 500) have surged from ~$45 trillion in 2021 to $55–60 trillion. Chinese indices (CSI 300 + Hang Seng) have slid from ~$13 trillion at their peak to around $10 trillion. If this were just a currency story, America’s market values wouldn’t be booming while China’s shrank in absolute terms. The bottom line: China’s slowdown is structural. America is in much better shape and barring some epic self-cucking, the US should still be dominant
