      Taiwan’s fucked:

      Trump doesn’t give a flying fnord about their life.

      & once Trump’s dictatorship’s instantiated, he’s enforcing his “Greater North America” war on Canada, using Greenland to sever our EU-lifeline, WHILE…

      enforcing Civil War Part2: confederate-vengeance, WHILE

      enforcing imperial-expansion wars throughout the rest of the Americas.

      Asia’s abandoned.

      Europe?

      China will simply tell whomever’s running Russia: “you rampage on Europe all you can, & we’ll supplant you in gov’t & industry, in Russia, but you get to play tzar until you die” … and the ruler(s) of Russia/“Russia” will accept that, because they’re otherwise helpless/hobbled/powerless, & asserting-power’s an addiction.

      China gets the West grinded-down, without Chinese blood spilt, AND…

      China can then concentrate on grinding-down Asia.

      No help from the West.

      No help from anybody.

      Modi’s India, which bet the whole farm on Russia standing with them against China … has nothing, then.

      ClimatePunctuation’ll trash India while they’re trying to fight China ( which is probably part of why China won’t ditch coal, tbh ).

      EVERYthing in this world’s current-vectors is setting-up Regional Consolidation Time™.

      7-ish years of each region getting … not-diverse.

      ( I expect that whomever it is who ends-up owning the Middle-East, they will then set about owning Africa, and I don’t expect that to be Netanyahu or Iran. )
