“If the mainland Chinese army enters Taiwan – an island province of China – then we will commit economic suicide. That’ll show them!!”
Sanctioning China would tank Europe’s economy so bad, there’s just no way they’re too entangled
Our (European) elites are so disjointed from our reality I would be completely unsurprised if they did this. The working class struggles to survive while they hoard wealth. :/

And look at the UK… somehow even more fallen and shithole-ish than it was before
This is a U.S. politician saying this right? Kinda saying the quiet part out loud regarding the EU being a vassal state
Like… Directly after Xi met and had “constructive talks” with Blinken, apparently lmfao. Yankees just can’t help but contradict each other.
I like how the only choices the EU “leaders” are allowed to make are suicidal and benefit the US alone.
Oh my god I will die because of the incompetency of these fuckers.
Now, link bitte or I will call you out for being a lib.
Lmao the EU isn’t even the 2nd biggest trading partner for china, US and ASEAN beat them by miles. Go on, sanction china, Show them who’s boss
The US may be going to straight up bloody alter sacrifice Europe to weaken China/Russia/multi-polarity and the European liberals are going to take it with cheers.
They’ll later wonder why all the jobs are gone, products and goods gone, inflation out of control, economy in free-fall but I suspect as usual they’ll be channeled to blame it on some minority group. Hell I wouldn’t put it beyond the US to try and goad Europe into a state where it “independently chooses” to enter war against Russia directly. If it gets nuked it’s not the US problem, particularly if it’s the periphery of it full of their most loyal deranged types (eastern Europe).
Very worrying to know the industrial capitalists are at the controls of the military, the national-security-state, etc. While the financial capitalists like Bill Gates, Jamie Diamond, who understand China can profit them and are acting rationally in their own short-term interests in being friendly to it (though betraying their class long-term) don’t have power or aren’t making moves we can see to stop this slowly turning death and war machine as it gears up for a disaster.
Seriously what’s happening is a total shitshow. Succdems vehemently opposing any reduction of imperialism because quality of life could drop, but they accept QoL drop for the increase of imperialism, and it’s not even theirs imperialism.
blame it on some minority group
There is one quite ready. Ukrainians. There are millions of them and while media right now worship Ukraine, under that there is already antiukrainian sentiment spreading. So when the war is over, especially if Russia either do what they did in Chechenya or even just install a new government, Ukrainians will be back to “slavic untermenschen” and get blamed on so many different levels from “not fighting hard enough” up to some totally unhinged conspiracy theories.
You probably know how we have it Poland, ethnic hatred towrads ukrainians is brewing over here rather quickly (quickest with the boomers, the racist old fucks). I’ve already seen comparing ukrainians with thieves, maids, prostitutes, liars, slackers and more.
With me often hearing, even unfortunately from my father, a saying commenting on a mess:
Posprzątaj! Ukrainki w domu nie masz!
Which translates to “Clean up! You don’t have an Ukrainian (lady) at home!”.
This country is a fucking mess, under the mask Polish people hate Ukrainians, especially the nationalists.
I like how they phrase it as “We will cut them from US” whereas in reality it is a situation where they are cutting themselves from them, and isolating themselves. Europe is literally wanting not to trade with 2 of the most big countries on Earth, let’s see how well that goes.
Europe’s leaders have forgotten the lessons learned by French and Russian monarchs. I mean, the virtue-signalling sanctions against Russia were bad enough but at least they could source gas through China or from the US. If they sanction China, there’s nowhere else with the production capacity to replace what will be lost. Maybe we’re watching a live show of state-Darwinism, where Europe accidentally degrowths itself out of existence and saves the world from climate change.
Fuck, inshallah lmfao
hmm
Europe has already had to buy Russian oil from India, because sanctions kept them from buying it directly. All they’re doing is making fools of themselves by following orders from the US and imposing sanctions.
Gosh, what could go wrong (for Europe)?
As Victoria Nuland used to say to Jeffrey Payette shortly before the Maidan coup, fuck the EU
