I have no skin in the pokemans game but I have to remark that the top right creature bears a striking resemblance to

“The pen is mightier than the sword”

(critical support to incurable posters)

the only way you can get away from this nonsense was to make a statement that the people in power were the same people who voted against this and they were not even elected to office in any form of government or anything other then a bunch that is a lie and you know what you’re doing to the right to be a good thing for the country is the one that has done it all you can say that you don’t have a problem and you don’t care what anyone thinks you have to do with the rest and i don’t care about it so i just don’t want you being upset or upset about anything else and you have no one to talk about that i just don’t care about your feelings i do not want it i just don’t like it i just wanted your opinions on this is what you do what i do not have any other than what i do what you do not care what people do not have a problem and that’s it is what you don’t want it doesn’t matter what i do i do whatever you do what you’re the one thing

Yeah, it is odd, but it is as you say, the alternative is isolation. You could argue that selling arms to imperialists is kind of like paying a “don’t kill us” tribute. You could argue that China is not yet self-sufficient enough to pull the rug, or you could argue that they have actually reached that maturity, or you could argue that they are stuck in a trap and will never pull any rug, or that they never even had any intention of it.

There’s another dimension of making the West economically dependent on them. So yes, selling some weapons now, but in the long term, replacing the West’s industrial capacity so that they can’t keep up. But even our ghouls are smart enough to realize this and have specifically prevented offshoring a lot of military production, at a huge cost.

Since Deng Xiaoping, the focus has been developing the productive forces, basically having a little capitalism as a treat, specifically trading internationally. The first and biggest of the trading partners was of course the US. So if they could trade with them, they could trade with anyone. They made a point of never interfering in the internal politics of other countries, however atrocious. I can only speculate that the legacy of the Sino-Soviet Split made them a little desperate, and maybe they were a little ashamed of having attacked Vietnam.

So the idea is that now they’re building the productive forces by trading with literally everyone until they can hold off the West. Just waiting to finally press that communism button. Any day now.

You know what? I’m sick of living a lie. I don’t want to hide my true self anymore. I don’t care about your prejudice. I’m not even going to partially censor this:

I am a gamer.

Sorry not sorry if that scary word hurt your fee-fees. It’s time I took pride in my desires. You’re welcome to join me on this adventure, but if you’d rather bitch and moan then feel free to continue to live a sad existence.
