    Unless you can provide actual evidence that some dramatic changed happened during that period, then there’s no point to continue this discussion. Your whole argument hinges on an assumption that you’ve provided no basis for.

      I don’t have to provide evidence because I am not the one making assertions.

              I am not asserting there is decoupling. There is reported decoupling and I’m asking for a counter perspective. This really isn’t that hard.

                post a link to this “reported decoupling”. a link with data, not speculation. the users above provided data of a trend of increased reliance on China for manufacturing inputs. if you have data that indicates the trend has reversed, show it to us. otherwise, you are just mindlessly guessing

                  Bro, do you understand what a request for information is, or is everything a debate to you?

                    dont “bro” me. also ur the one being a debate pedant. users gave data about trade with China. then you made a claim that there was “reported decoupling” but didnt provide evidence. not only did you not provide evidence for decoupling, you didnt even provide evidence for the supposed reports. arguing in bad faith is against CoC. so stop being a debate pervert, stop arguing for the sake of arguing, and stop assuming you dont have to support your claims

        a lot has fundamentally changed in the last 5 years.

        I said that there is reported decoupling.

        I am not the one making assertions.

        Why are you like this? debate-me-debate-me

          I am not asserting decoupling. I am saying that I have been told there is decoupling by others and I’m asking for a counter perspective. This really isn’t that hard.

            You said that there has been reported decoupling. That is an assertion. The fact that you are trying to worm your way out of it by way of semantics is just sad.

                Good on you, you were able to post an article. Why did we have to go thru so much tooth pulling to get here?

                    You are now again trying to worm your way out. No one has said you are advocating for a position. You made assertions and you maintained you had not made any. You maintained you did not have anything to share, nor did you have to share anything. You are now trying to make it into seeming as if the disagreement was one of misunderstanding, where it was believed you held these positions, which you now claim you do not. this is worm behaviour.
