    This is where China gives me hope, if anybody can take leadership on such a huge project it’s China with their demonstrated ability to deliver huge engineering miracles. I do think we’re going to be in for a rough time, but I do remain optimistic that humanity will come through in the end, and the whole capitalist ideology will be forever discredited when the dust settles.

      This is where I see a potential flashpoint for global conflict. The United States will do everything in its power to oppose and destabilize China as it emerges as a global leader, even as the US itself declines due to its inability to adapt to climate change.

      I have a lot of hope in China but I worry.

        That’s my read on the situation as well. I imagine anybody who’s spent any time trying to understand what’s happening is quite worried at this point, but at the end of the day all we can do is watch and hope for the best. The comic incompetence that’s been on display by the US regime over the past two years is a big cause of optimism as well. I firmly believe that Chinese leadership can effectively plan around whatever schemes these clowns come up with going forward.
