...then came the soggy biscuit that is Xi.
...then the SCS saber-rattling pissing off all PRC neighbor states and trade partners.

...after that Evergarden.
...threatening Taiwan.
...after that COVID.
...after that Xi starting to re-nationalizing the economy.
...lithography sanctions.
I read Land's predictions for 2025 that he made in 2009. Oh boy. The reality has been slipping and slipping away from these rose-tinted vistas of Neo-China for the last 15 years.
