2021-11-06 at 7:45 AM UTC in China’s Economy Is In DANGER!It's delusional to think that China will collapse before the US does.
1. Virtually all writers who survived the fall of the Soviet Union see the US as following in its footsteps, not China - http://www.cluborlov.com/ is a good example.
2. The primary cause for the fall of the Soviet Union was the new leadership (ie. the next generation) did not believe in the socialist/communist ideals of their fathers and ended up idealising the materialism offered by the west. This started with the youth studying in the west, then living there, funneling their wealth there and eventually carving up state infrastructure and selling it off. It was effectively a cultural, not economic or military victory for the west.
The Chinese leadership is in nowhere near the same position - contrary to the propaganda US think-tanks are paid to pump out, the CCP enjoys broad support across the population, largely due to its integration in every level of society.
It is an authoritarian model that is created from the desires of the majority - its legitimacy to the people comes from the same place that rejects the special minority interests (such as LGBQWERTY and ethnic minority lobbies) that plague western liberal democracy. The Chinese government performs the general will of the everyday Chinese, where the US government demonises, attacks and displaces from the workforce its most productive demographics in favour of it's least productive.
3. Even if it were an issue of an economic arms race like there was between the US and USSR, China is spending nowhere near the US or even Russia's level when it comes to military as a proportion of annual budget or production. It still has the biggest production base in the world and is moving toward high-tech microprocessor manufacture even without Taiwan - the major issue here is designing chips in such a way that they don't violate existing patents, not a question of technical capability.
The only way their economy fails is if they're totally locked out of the US and EU markets as well as having BRI initiatives sabotaged to keep them out of developing Eurasian markets, but that's a tall order and seems unlikely.
4. If they really thought China was collapsing, would US military leadership have finally admitted that the world is no longer monopolar?
https://www.rt.com/usa/539294-pentagon-tripolar-world-challenge/We're entering into a tri-polar world with the US, Russia and China being all great powers. Just by introducing three vs two you get increased complexity.
Sure Milley is a hardcore faggot, but that's an official statement coming from the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. -

How Tyson Foods Got 60,500 Workers to Get the Coronavirus Vaccine Quickly
Lauren Hirsch and Michael Corkery
SPRINGDALE, Ark. — When Tyson, one of the world’s largest meatpacking companies, announced in early August that all of its 120,000 workers would need to be vaccinated against the coronavirus or lose their jobs, Diana Eike was angry. Ms. Eike, an administrative coordinator at the company, had resisted the vaccine, and not for religious or political reasons like many others here in her home state.
“It was just something personal,” she said.
Now, Ms. Eike is fully vaccinated, and she is relieved that Tyson made the decision for her. The company, she said, “took the burden off of me making the choice.”
Across the country, workers have reacted to vaccine mandates with a mix of emotions. Employer requirements are taking effect without major controversy in many areas. But in some cities, government workers have marched through the streets in protest, while others have quit. Numerous companies, fearing a wave of resignations, have hesitated on mandates, even as they struggled with new coronavirus outbreaks.
“It was just something personal,” Diana Eike, a Tyson employee, said of her initial resistance to being vaccinated.© Jacob Slaton for The New York Times “It was just something personal,” Diana Eike, a Tyson employee, said of her initial resistance to being vaccinated.
Tyson’s announcement that it would require vaccinations across its corporate offices, packing houses and poultry plants, many of which are situated in the South and Midwest where resistance to the vaccines is high, was arguably the boldest mandate in the corporate world.
“We made the decision to do the mandate, fully understanding that we were putting our business at risk,” Tyson’s chief executive, Donnie King, said in an interview last week. “This was very painful to do.”
But it was also bad for business when Tyson had to shut facilities because of virus outbreaks. Since announcing the policy, roughly 60,500 employees have received the vaccine, and more than 96 percent of its work force is vaccinated.
…
At a plant in Camilla, Ga., Dextrea Dennard, a member of the Retail, Wholesale Department Store Union, was initially upset that Tyson mandated vaccination. “I felt like our rights were being violated,” she said.
Ms. Dennard had seen the effect of the disease up close. Her brother had contracted the virus early on in the pandemic and was on a ventilator for 30 days. A number of workers died at the plant where she worked, a 15-minute drive away in Albany, one of the early epicenters of the outbreak.
“In my community, you know, we have a lot of deaths,” Ms. Dennard said. “I thought about what my brother had went through and overcame — and I just felt like it was time for me to do what I needed to do, as far as for my daughter, who’s 10 years old, who can’t be vaccinated.”
Ms. Dennard decided to get vaccinated after talking with a physician the company brought in to discuss his time treating Covid-19 patients.
“And once I got it, a lot of my co-workers that was feeling kind of funny about it — they got it later,” she said.
Others never got the shot. Monday was the last day on the job for Calvin Miller, who worked in dry storage at a Tyson plant in Sedalia, Mo., where the local vaccination rate is 46 percent. Mr. Miller, who worked for Tyson for 12 years, said he felt “betrayed” by the mandate: “A lot of good workers and longtime workers lost their jobs because they didn’t trust the vaccine,” he said. He is considering looking for a job in retail, even though it won’t pay as much as the $17.20 an hour base rate he made at Tyson, he said. The complex in which the Sedalia plant operates is now 96 percent vaccinated.
The company said that “a very limited number” of employees have quit over the mandate. There are still roughly 4,000 unvaccinated U.S. workers employed by Tyson who were either granted religious or medical exemptions, or who were previously on unrelated leave. Some of those with exemptions were transferred to a position that allowed them to socially distance. Others were furloughed.
Six employees have sued Tyson, claiming it violated Tennessee law by placing workers granted such exemptions on unpaid leave. The case is pending.
Mr. King said he has received comments from workers in emails and text messages.
“I wanted to know what people were thinking,” he said. Some of the feedback was angry. “I’ve gotten a death threat posted on a bathroom wall in one of our plants,” he said.
To help make clear the mandate was about keeping workers safe, Tyson needed support from its largest unions, the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union and the United Food and Commercial Workers Union. In exchange for their backing, Tyson agreed to offer more benefits for all workers, like paid sick leave.
“People who run large corporate enterprises think in two areas: What’s best for my employees and what’s best for the company to keep going?” said William Schaffner, an infectious disease expert at Vanderbilt University. “And in this instance, the two mesh beautifully.”
As the number of coronavirus cases and hospitalizations climbed over the summer, Ms. Eike, the administrative coordinator at Tyson in Springdale, began to question her decision to not get vaccinated. Around the same time, Mr. King announced the company mandate, giving her no choice. After Ms. Eike got the vaccine, her adult son, who had suffered a traumatic brain injury that made him fearful of the shot, received one. She now thinks that, considering the stakes, her resistance had been “selfish.”
“I kind of beat myself up,” she said, “and think, why did it take somebody else to help me see that?”

Since you are to lazy/stupid/brainwashed to look for yourself here...overall COVID-19 recovery rate is between 97% and 99.75%.

"The document includes five scenarios. The first four are varying estimates of the disease's severity, from low to high, while the fifth represents the "current best estimate."
The range of estimates put the fatality rate for those showing symptoms between 0.2%-1%, with a "best estimate" of 0.4%." -

…
Collectively, our results suggest that the SARS-CoV-2 variant A.30 can evade control by vaccine-induced antibodies and might show an increased capacity to enter cells in a cathepsin L-dependent manner, which might particularly aid in the extrapulmonary spread. As a consequence, the potential spread of the A.30 variant warrants close monitoring and rapid installment of countermeasures.
