Lad I have family in China right now three cities are currently being locked down >Tianjin (city outside of beijing which acts as the areas largest port) >Shanghai (currently getting assblasted the hardest) >Shenzen (tech exporting hub)
So basically only these 3 cities have been getting locked down >what does this mean? China does not fuck around with their lockdowns. They completely closed their ports and people cant even go out to buy groceries So whats different from the old lockdowns of welding people into their homes?
Every other morning people in these three cities have to leave their apartments and gather into really large groups to be tested >how is this odd? They are creating moral deniability by having masses of people come out into large groups and this gives them the ability to >we are having a covid surge so we have to lockdown and stop exports for global safety! >We are closing it down for the sake of humanity look how great we are! What is really happening is they are using covid as a smokescreen to stop global shipping the supply chain is already fucked this will hurt china but it will hurt the west FAR FAR more and they know this they dont mind sacrificing a few million people if starvation comes but in the end they can completely collapse the west.
China is using covid as a smokescreen to further fuck global shipping its a weapon they are using that weapon no one can blame them either because "muh covid"
they shutdown shenzen first they are shutting down shanghai right now they are starting to shutdown tianjin
once theyve done their test run in all three cities and they have wargamed it they will then shut down all three cities at once. they are seeing what ripples closing each port does to the global economy and supply. each port ships different things once they have wargamed it and found out each ripple they will shutdown all three cities and go for the killshot
Let's get this straight America buys a bunch of stuff from china, mostly useless crap that can be made domestically, holding up their economy and pumping capital and agricultural products into their termite hive of a country. China denies itself that cash flow and food while causing social unrest. ... The west is doomed? Can someone give me some info on how exactly we are dependent on china for anything? Like anything? Don't give the bullshit, give me the real shit. I don't want to hear >muh ameriga will gollapse because china isnt shipping ticonderoga pencils Thats bullshit.

What’s the killshot? Also didn’t China do all this shutdown stuff with ports at the start of Covid aswell?

>mostly useless crap that can be made domestically Do you see chinese workers demanding the ability to drive new silverados and that their pay also includes the most expensive healthcare in the world. Sorry ain't happenin chief stop being so dumb about the ability of the american manufacturing industry.
Your analysis is bad. These lockdowns and supply problems will hurt chinks more than Europe. Europe can recover from a recession but the chink economy is built on endless expansion. The whole thing will come crashing down if they lose steam.

China sneezes and the west catches a cold. Sad many such cases. My shipments came in ahead of schedule last year from China sucks to have an order in now I guess.

China is buying all of the russian oil because we europeans stuck our noses to them because of the rubles thing
china is buying all of it russia is the breadbasket of europe so is ukraine and russia is taking it
russia/newly acquired ukraine will be able to feed the chinese and the russians
you fuckers need to pull your heads out of your asses all china needs to do to solidify its power is to take the chips manufacturers in taiwan and its fucking over
>all china needs to do to solidify its power is to take the chips manufacturers in taiwan and its fucking over Please please please. They would definitely up production as well. Based chinks.
Nicholas Mitchell
My bro dude, Do you have a cushy life or what? Any manufactured good requires parts from China and we don't have the factories to produce these parts. A lot of things are just assembled in the US.

>Europe can recover from a recession but the chink economy is built on endless expansion. i keep reading this meme and its a biggest western cope. Chinese economy doesnt depend on expansion. Chinese economy is alreayd biggest consumer market in the world. China economy, it anything, aims to make it the only market that matter and "chinese" economy to work 100 on said market.
China always was and remains holding to Middle Kingdom concept. Their value right now is not their exports, but their consumers.

People are getting high on their own supply vasili The west has never been challenged and taken an actual hit the west has only ever hurt itself in its own confusion (ww1 and ww2)
Now that there is a threat outside of europe/america the west refuses to take it seriously the boomers are going to sleepwalk and golfclap us to our graves I do however take solace in knowing that globohomo is about to die
we have to kill all the rats when the ship sinks if you catch my drift

You're mostly correct but the largest motivator is the inability to acquire enough diesel to keep the fake "economic activity" plates spinning. Russia is going for Ukraine because they know most refineries re-tooled to process cheap russian heavy oil years ago. So they effectively have Europe by the short and curlies now. just search "diesel shortage" and you'll see just how close to collapse western europe really is.
Blake Johnson
According to Any Forums practically everything China does will hurt the west. If they ship goods to you it hurts the west. If they don't ship goods to you it hurts the west. If they exists it hurts the west.
as for russia/ukraine I have looked into the deisel situation so not only do they have a power monopoly in the region they are about to have a food monopoly
why are westerners so fucking blind to the powerplays being made here? we are to busy sucking our own dicks to notice we are about to get raped
I saw diesel was over 10 usd per gallon in some states
