    I mean sure, but the real number doesnt really matter. Its completely obvious that they are winning on every front right now because the west has completely fucked itself. How wouldnt they stay winning when they make the best solar equipment and electric cars that the entire world then keeps buying from them. The message here is: “China winning because US keeps shooting itself and all its (former) allies in the foot.”

      Yeah, reality doesn’t matter. It’s obvious anyway. We should all become Chinese, right?

      Thanks for this. (/s, just to be safe)

        Yes it is quite obvious. Almost every modern technology the average person buys these days was made in or has passed through China. It would be pretty reality defying if their economy was doing badly.

        I still would never want to live in China because their civil liberties are fucked over there, but economically they seem to be just fine.
