Global Chess

NYT is probably on China's payroll, but is recognizing a pattern - rescuing itself from detachment further with a critical populace. There has to always be a traitor among the enemy, saying "Yeah, it's bad, but it's not that bad."

I found the TRS take on it plausible. Th J's are trying to infiltrate China since quite some time but it has not been going as well as they hoped. So now they also turn to other countries like India to build up a base there as well. Economically and mimetically. A way to also put on some pressure on China.

When you believe the whole world is either Amalek or slaves, it's no wonder you're paranoid seeking presence from one host to another.

A virus, nor a parasite that enters in a symbiosis with one, cannot survive without a proxy - a host.
It shapes itself to accommodate the host's nature - masks and adapts to the host, superficially, so as to not be detected.
It adapts from host to host, and one version, adapted to one host, cannot survive in another.

Turkey's 'game'.

Hungary...another "Nazi state".

Russia is, and has been protector of ethnic enclaves - wether in Syria, Georgia, parts of Europe.

This sets it at eventual odds a homogeneous-ifying Chinese empire.

Many people will be jumping on the sino-capitalist bandwagon once the judeo-liberal order fails.

My oldest sister is a NGO-peace keeper in Georgia. I´ll keep you updated, comedy will ensue within our lifetimes.

Russia is promoting an ideological antithesis to Americanism/Globalism as a multi-ethnic Eurasian state that shares military and economics - sort of like the EU should have been or ought to become.
It is formulating an antagonistic ideology to American uniforming melting-pot nihilism, and American individualism - individualism void of genetic and tribal connections - a market based identity - money purchasing any identity you desire, if it does not hinder anothers; identity of the open-market.

Air forces are battlefield game-changers, equivalent to the effect naval forces once had.
Their U.S. military superiority is based on their air-force - even their naval superiority is based no how they can carry and launch air forces over a battle field.
So, Russian technological advancements in air-defences cannot be under estimated.
I suspect it is one of the reasons why the U.S. never invaded Syria or Iran. With no air-superiority their forces would have to face the enemy on an equal footing - great losses were estimated....something the American sheeple would not tolerate after Vietnam.
A few hundred or thousand casualties, over a period of time, is acceptable and can be absorbed by the American psyche, but tens of thousands of potential casualties would be devastating and intolerable by masses that cannot comprehend why Americans are fighting half way around the world to begin with, and that have no shared culture (meme) or genetic heritage.

Makes me wonder how much the (US) military is dependent on their satellite systems for communication, global positioning and information gathering. Once that gets disabled by special missiles, the defender gains a huge advantage for his ground based (hidden from most radar systems) defensive measures.

Well they did start the new military branch Star Force...their ambitions are universal.

You would have to position your satellite defensive missiles alongside your information gathering satellites. If the satellites are positioned straight above your enemy (or close to that) then the enemy has the shortest distance with its missiles to shoot the satellites down. Maybe they have been working on some super-focused laser system or other radiation cannon to "melt" or jam the incoming enemy missiles but other than that it's probably not that easy to defend your very exposed satellites once your enemy has the technology to reach those satellites with missiles.

13:15 that would be great if Taiwan could replace China as the supply chain, everyone should boycott China

I disagree.
China can push back American power, allowing Europe's buried spirit to emerge from its present Americanized state of consumerism and nihilism.

China is clearly an enemy...whereas Americans look European even through their spirit has been infected by An Afro-Asiatic mindset.
With China, as the clear and present danger, Europeans can rally and find their shared identity.
American hypocrisy and Messianism, is too psychologically manipulative to awaken the average European imbecile from his drug induces, hedonistic lethargy.

Good point. This is just some random guy and sounds like hopeful thinking, at least right now I don't think it's anyone best interest to start trade more with Taiwan, nobody is talking about Taiwan.

The final frontier, space, will be the next frontier.
Naval superiority was an advantage until air superiority took over.
I suspect air superiority will become less dominant as space superiority takes over.
Presently, ground-based air defences are already decreasing its the strategic significance of aircraft.
I think part of American consolidation is this slight but important decline which means, pragmatically, an increase in casualties.
Up until now America can claim superiority by keeping its casualties low, but what happens when the factors that kept them low are decreasing in effectiveness - its power range decreases, especially when it is a heterogeneous System with no shared memetic or genetic fabric to fall back upon in times of great need.

And the winner is: China: "China uses the BRI to establish economically predatory infrastructure projects across the globe, expanding its sphere of influence.

Trumps' isolationism and consolidation of American power to regroup and reestablish a regional role with new alliances in a New World Order - now that the left-wing, Globalization project seems to be floundering - is reshuffling dynamics.
America is becoming an authoritarian, selfish, enterprise - gone are the days of its policing and democracy building.
It is now denying much needed medicines to its once closest allies.
What message is this sending to them about American reliability in the coming century?

Putin is using Dugin's philosophy to formulate a post-Soviet antagonism to Americanism and its Judeo-Puritan Liberalism-Capitalism/Abrahamic, messianic-spiritualism.
An ideology that will become the ideology of a new Russian centred soviet block.
Russia has already moved away from Marxism and back to Orthodox Christianity, and china has its own Maoist variant of Capitalism and its Buddhist nihilistic spirituality.
Nihilism is essential for integrating and controlling masses of racially (genetic) and culturally (memetic) heterogeneous populations.
Europe has an advantage because its core geographic local, and the populations within, are connected by both genes and memes, if, instead of seeking a lowest-common-denominator they substitute this deconstruction by a temporal shift back to a shared past where their common Indo-European heritage - focused on the European branches - automatically finds common ground in both culture and blood.
This is the advantage Americanism seeks to dilute with its liberalism and its open-borders, open-markets ideology.

I'm not sure about Dugin being such a big influence on Putin. Some also suggest that Dugin is being promoted by the Western (((intelligentsia))) and propped up to seem more influential than he is to eventually have some control over the rising oppositions to liberalism. Gotta get in early and control all the arising oppositions to channel them into desired ends.

Highly doubtful Dugin goes beyond a mere denial of 'first second and third' theories, leaving a barren landscape where little remains. I would guess his book is filled with switches of context between moralizing small scale and quoting events in history - back and forth. Never read his material and don't care to.

Whatever Dugin promotes can probably be twisted to endear the interests of those in power (i.e. Putin) using the same old methods that subverted Liberalism by making its practitioners ignore reality for ideology - and the promise of them becoming 'ideological heroes' in the future if they just ignore the costs, or promising they're one of the 'chosen'. The so-called rejection of Liberalism likely becoming a fulfillment by its opposite. Like Marx saying to promote open free markets because it destroys nationalism. Same ends, same interests: destroy any peoples that would not submit.

The style of dominance will be different because these are two different nations, with a different history and racial synthesis.
For America world-dominion was translated into economics.
Using its military only in support of its soft-power, eroding the cultures of the world and reducing them to a copy of America, i.e., a culture-of-no-culture, where anyone could purchase an identity and escape his/her past.
China is an ancient civilization and culture, with a recent Marxist past.
Its style of dominance will be different, reflecting its spirit of becoming.

And this British documentary is also part of the inversion of reality, claiming that this came into the 'west' when it was in the west where it began and was developed and spread across the world.
Leo Strauss' rereading of the ancients to redefine them in accordance to current (modern) norms and necessities is but a dualistic exoteric/esoteric part of a triad:
Say one thing (exoteric, public man - pretense), think a second (esoteric, private man - motive), and do a third (redirection and an attempt to deal with the paradoxes and contradictions of this pretentious diversion, justify, validate the discrepancy by redirecting and concealing).

Tomorrow's planned space launch - America's first, after ten years - and recent UFO sightings and recordings, by American pilots, can only mean one thing.
The US is revamping its arms race after recent Russian - as well as Indian and Chinese - gains, and is attempting to maintain its technological lead, and its military advantage.
Space Force in full gear.
The logo containing the symbol of Star Trek was not accidental.

This was expected. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Consolidation of power is a form of self-maintenance, prolonging the probabilities of survival.
Yet, time is brutal and old age has already set-in.
Internally is from where all global empires, such as Rome, collapsed - they imploded from the weight of their own mass.
America's founding principles and values have been eroded - the beams holding it up full of vermin chipping away at them - termites eating them into brittle dust.
Melting Pot.
