Well put, Mq.

The Chinese political DNA is defective because it has for centuries relied on one For Life man, whether an emperor or a Core Comrade. Slavish boot-licking of the One Man follows. Errors are magnified because there is nothing to prevent them, i.e., Great Leap Forward, Xi’s socialism with Chinese characteristics, one child policy, etc.

So powerful is this aspect of Chinese political DNA that the greatest mass murderer in history, Mao, still retains god-like status.

There is no political evolution, no struggle between competing ideas leading to progress as in the West. No reality checks, in the current vernacular. More important, the One Man has no ‘sell by’ shelf life which limits what he can do. The door for megalomaniacally-induced disasters is therefore always open.

You’d think the Chinese would have learned by now, but this requires a cultural appropriation of Western values which the Chinese simply cannot abide. So, old errors are committed serially.

We are witnessing one being played out. Again, for the umpteenth time.

As we are nearing the moment of genesis my partners who are <<lovely people of Taiwan>> shall arrive earlier than originally planned, because we are nearing the moment of genesis when we leverage on mega forces to do our bidding.

In call yesterday I asked them about the political future of Taiwan from here on out to 2032, they said the future looking bright, we got back to business, lovely lush business. Seems none are interested in the political future of a deal essentially already done-done. Not worth the energy-suck. Civil wars are that way, and impending resolution a matter of of course, naturally.

Nothing you might daydream about can change what is natural, and a matter of of course.

Taiwan splitists’ invasion of the one-China shall fail, and then the civil war ends. Soooooo simple.

As to <<China is losing goodwill at a great rate of knots>> … yeah, I see that in the Red Sea.

Oh wait, goodwill of what folks?
