China's Century

>Anyone who believes in absolute certainties, into complete, final solutions, is a naïve infantile mind.
Anyone offering world views that imply omniscience or a theory of everything, is a naïve infantile mind.
The unknown and unknowable is always present, and can only be named but not understood nor conceptualized.
Any world view that is convinced that it can know or that it already does know everything, is either attempting to deceive others or is deceiving itself - its motive is other than what it claims or pretends it to be.

>Americanism, i.e., Liberal Democracy, is at an end, because the ethnostate and the nation state is becoming obsolete and is being replaced by the Super-State.
A Super-State - Superorganism in Spenglerean contexts - needs to integrate multiethnic, multicultural,, multiracial homogenous populations into a stage whole.
The degree that it accomplishes this will determine its ability to compete within a multipolar world. The method it uses to accomplish this will determine its probability of success. Americanism is proving to be insufficient. China offers a different method - i.e., social authoritarian collectivism - as does India - i.e., updated caste system - and Russia - enthno-diversity within a singular authoritarian state (Eurasia).
American hyper-individualism, melting pot, open borders open markets, culture-of-no-culture, miscegenation, is the failing American model - i.e., liberal democratic capitalism.

>Huntington's Clash of Civilizations is taking shape but not along the fault lines he envisions with his Anglo educated mind.
Born and raised in world dominated by the British and then the American empire has affected populations across the world - via U.S. soft-power. Americanism is incompatible with European and world historical identifications.
American messianic New World Order is a product of new world psychologies - flight from the past in a world of open and accessible frontiers (possibilities). this model only succeeds to stabilize heterogenous populations when it is prosperous and the threat if kept at a safe enough distance - ergo America has been fighting in wars far away from is borders, to keep the threat from pressuring its fragile State of the Union.
When the enemy, in the form of a pandemic, and its declining dominance, invaded its borders it began to fragment.

Communism is closer to Buddhism.
They find connection in nihilism.
Buddhism is to Hinduism what Abrahamism is to Paganism.

Genes to Memes.
As culture morphs into complex civilization it adopts memes that can assimilate racial and spiritual heterogeneous populations...
Nihilism serves this political purpose.
Constantine the great adopted Christianity not because of any life altering epiphany but due to political exigency.
Most of the mediocre masses had converted to the slave - victim - spirituality of Abraham and would not rally behind an infidel king, so he saw signs and baptized himself, remaining a pagan to the end, according to some sources.

China's ascent is far from certain, as nothing is absolute and chaos always imposes itself upon order. Its advantages extend from its non-messianic spiritual traditions.
It has no plans to dominate the world or to liberate it from its traditions, because it does not perceive itself as a divine entity on a sacred mission or as a "chosen" people with a manifest destiny to save mankind from itself. Its method of dominance is different.
It's demographic issues are being dealt with by an authoritarian system which is imposing restrictions to internet, computer gaming, porn, and emasculating ideals, which are creating havoc among Americanized youths across the world.
These interventions will take a generation to be bear fruit, and are a reaction to previous mistaken policies that restricted families to one child, yet, this will be offset by a gradual intelligence decline in the west due to encouraged miscegenation, the absence of minds to import – as they are being increasingly absorbed locally – and the conflicts emerging within more multi-cultural, multi-racial, anti-ethnic, anti-gender, liberal systems that are producing sexual deviants by the scores. Importing Mexicans, or Africans, or Arabs, to offset declining birthrates may appear to be an effective solution if you accept race as being a social construct – a mythology that is currently being put to the test.
Nevertheless, China's relative ascent into geopolitical prominence is already producing desirable consequences, forcing the emergence of localized alliances, the consolidation of like-cultures into coherent unities, and the gradual elimination of immigration by promoting right-wing political movements as a backlash to generations of monopolizing Americanization.
The Chinese don't dismiss race nor gender as being a "social construct". This cultural factor will become increasingly felt across the world as Americanism declines and its dominance over media and pop-art diminishes.
China's example is fueling resistance to the American model of culture-of-no-culture, radical individualism, anti-natural identifiers and their replacement with market(ing) identifiers. It is also exposing the flaws in the idealization of "freedom" promoted, through human interventions, to exceed its natural limits. The belief in absolute determinism gave way to a belief in absolute freedom and is now returning to its origins – recovering its Abrahamic mysticism. The truth being that freedom can never be absolutely positive nor absolutely negative, it can only be expressed as choice within finite rational probabilities.
For example: the idea that a man is free to claim to be a woman is a radical understanding of freedom based on Americanism and its message of salvation from natural limitations, promoted as a liberation from human, ideological, authoritarianism. In Americanism if you do not deny this "right" to another and you have the money to support your claims, you can pretend to be anything – money being the true messiah in Judeo-Puritanism.
The confusion between genetics and memetics is evident – classic either/or absolutism of simpletons.

China's century does not imply its dominance, in the way the US dominated through soft and hard power.
It's dominance will promote multi-polarity, believing that its size will have an advantage, forcing others to form unities that can challenge them.
China has no interest in "replacing" the world's culture with its own - as did the U.S., although it will inevitably be an example that will be imitated and will influence lesser power to adopt, inspired by its dominance.

This is obvious in Biden's gradual adoption of China's social credit ethics - see vaccination authoritarianism that shames and punishes those who resist what is deemed to be socially beneficial, contradicting the US religiuos-like worship of the ideal of "liberty" and "individualism".

East Asians are racially, highly introverted and secretive, deeply ingrained and obsessive of their inner spiritual traditions.

That some proclaim a "Chinese Era" reeks of deep misunderstanding, combined with projection, that Western Imperialists accuse the Han Chinese of their own domineering and exploitative worldview, metaphysics.


If Han Chinese have worldwide ambitions, then they are slow, methodical, profitable, and politically loyal to their ethnic & racial homogeneity before all else.

This explains the "Great Cyberwall" of China in action, steep censorship of all Western media before it penetrates the Chinese middle-class and new Bourgeois.

The introverted nature of the Han Chinese finds more empathy, understanding, and kinsmenship among the Western Conservative "Hard-Right", in the sense of being left alone and unbothered by conflicting worldviews. The Western "Cowboy", Sojourn, wanderer mentality that seeks solace, resonates with the Chinese.

In this way, both the East Asian Authoritarian can find political common ground among 'Trump' supporters whereas they cannot respect the selling-out and disloyalty of the Liberal-Left, 'Biden', and his prostrating before the Chinese, is degrading, and they are smart enough know not to trust it. Thus they can use it, though, for their own political and economical gain.

What is the Chinese connection in Afghanistan, is it a coincidence?

China's Buddhism - nihilistic - is a good fit with tis brand of ehtnic-Marxism.
But it lacks this Jewish Messianism which would make ti intolerant of all competing spiritualities and inclined to believe it is destined to save the world from "evil", or to "save god" by recombining his "sparks" - read Kabbalism in the Abrahamism thread.
It's dominance - if it occurs - will be based on a conviction that it is racially and spiritually superior to all others, so it will not attempt o convert others like the US tried to make the world Liberal and American in all but name.

We see this in Afghanistan - a area rich in elements necessary for advanced technologies, but China did not intervene, nor impose itself, but patiently waited.
"Sleeping Giant, or "Dragon" they used to call China.

How Russia will factor in will be determined by how the US will react to their current alliance and how long it will take for the U.S. to implode.
Russia's Eurasian project will become a threat to China, but it also lacks Russia's natural resources, so there's a dilemma.

This tells us that china knows what its problems are and why the US is in decline.
At least ti recognizes the symptoms, because America is ailing form a more subtle mental virus - nihilism - and a parasite that is its carrier.

Some degree of nihilism is necessary to establish and maintain a SuperState but if your elites buy into it then it can become what it has become in the U.S., a disease that will eat you apart form the inside.
Over 6 decades of Hollywood brainwashing and even the masters are now buying into their own manufactured lies - or are they?
I think they realized they went overboard after decades of undermining the foundations of a nation, or when they opened the gates to Muslim immigration.
In time the construct you've put into motion takes over and you can no longer stop it.
This is why parasitism eventually destroys the parasite itself.

Americanised populations have been indoctrinated into the belief that race and gender are social constructs and that masculinity is about superficial things like muscles, fashion, aggression, violence...
They failed to understand the spirit of masculinity which is essential in scientific exploration, innovation, philosophy etc.
Emasculating males means you destroy what is necessary for you to compete on the world arena.
China is free from such delusions due to historical and geographic factors, but it does have a demographic issue because of Marxism.

State imposed decency.
A challenge to Americanism's amoral degeneracy.
This will be the dividing line.

Monetary credit system = Americanism
Social credit system = Buddhist/Communist China

If we actually study China's social credit system and how to ascend and gain privileges we discover some basic traditional ethics, like being polite, or taking care of your family, of visiting your parents etc., and what decreases your score is facial tattoos, cRap music, taking it up the arse, stealing, being inconsiderate etc.

A parasite infests a vulnerable host, taking advantage of its weaknesses, and then "colonizes" its nervous system, gradually taking over its actions and draining its energies until the host loses all capacity to defend itself from external threats, and fend for itself. An infested host remains dangerous as its confusion makes it lash out at any external stimulation.
Zombification.

just my perspective...

"to gain respect on the geopolitical scene, their upcoming athletes, "women and males" must accelerate their performance in sports like football, tennis and mma, where even their greatest athletes are far behind in performance compared to the athletes raised in the "w.e.s.t"

athletic prowess. n.i.ke´s fethered wings will determine the geo-centric battles of tomorrow,
its just my perspective, though i believe were entering a new age, an arms race between empires, bio-engineering superior males and females

harder, better, faster, stronger... le atletique le ensemblé,

They are advanced in research that will develop a future super soldier.
But the future is about cyborgs - man/machine hybrids where the question will become how much technological prosthetics can be integrated in to the body without it losing its humanity.

If, as I believe, body is the past made present, then how much of this past can be amputated or replaced before identity is lost?
Self is a continuum.

China will not openly support its ally Russia, preferring to keep its options open and by remaining neutral act as mitigating power that establishes and maintains peace and prosperity, like the US has done for the past century.

This is the classic alpha role.
If it manages to intervene in the Russo-Ukrainian conflict it will have dealt a decisive symbolic victory over the US.

The mindset that believes "we are good, they are evil".....and "we never do anything to instigate what happens to us"....the eternal innocence of the victim, who has convinced himself that everything he does is for the others good and what is done to him was due to envy, a misinterpretation, a misunderstanding of his benevolent intentions, is at the heart of Americanism's dumbing-down of its masses.
Its brainwashing, which finds ready ears among desperate degenerates, a.k.a., spiteful mutants.
The mindset of women, who wear a provocative dress to go out and then respond as if assaulted when they get attention from males they do not desire. That level of idiocy is dangerous when exploited by the self-mutilating ones, when one considers what it reveals about them that they would mutilate their bodies, symbolically emasculating themselves.
