Why America Is Losing the Tech War with China
It is simply too late to try to suppress China. The United States must either spend seriously on research and development, along with industrial policy, or it will lose the race for twenty-first-century technological supremacy.

The national interest “is guided by the belief that nothing will enhance those interests as effectively as the approach to foreign affairs commonly known as realism—a school of thought traditionally associated with such thinkers and statesmen as Disraeli, Bismarck, and Henry Kissinger. “ - from their about page
Anyone who idolizes fucking Bismarck and Kissinger is off their rocker. I wouldn’t trust anything from this rag more than I would toilet paper
Oh for sure, this is a nonsensical, blindly patriotic American rag, that like you said, isn't even worth using as toilet paper.
But if something as pro-American and pro-imperialism as this rot is realising that the US can't actually compete, it's a pretty clear sign the US is in major trouble.
For some reason I feel like this is more about promoting tech sanctions than it is actually about any tech deficit
Most likely.
It's written by David P. Goldman, an Asia Times writer whose views run counter to the mainstream US media China narrative.
The National Interest putting one of his pieces on the front page seems really uncharacteristic of them.
Way to avoid engaging with the actual points the article makes.
Any technological innovation that isn’t furthering a post scarcity society where basic needs are met without expectation of payment is just more tech noise and not substantive progress. Ai taxis and more expansive telecoms and more automated menial labor just sounds like more money into an entrenched politikers or corporats pockets. America has plenty of that as well
I’m fine with the automation just not with the centralized aspect and the whole aspect of the gains going to a encrusted statesman and corporate executive class while normal citizens are getting ripped off for houses and healthcare.
Adding to this: I’m tired of having centralized systems of manufacturing, we should be focusing on localized ai models empowering 3d printers and textile machines at a local scale. Break of manufacturing monopolies, stop shipping goods half way across the world. In home batteries and solar, wind to decentralize power grids Telecoms powered by a grid of satellites (put up by corporations or governments, somethings you need to compromise on) but connected to with antenna systems that could be open sourced and setup by households
More of that please less of this owner class decimating hiring head count
To whatever extent you can do that go ahead. However all of those methods would be less exploitative and therefore less profitable than the terrible exploititive methods we keep on doing.
This video elaborates on that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gSzzuY1Yw0
I wouldn’t trust anything from this poster. There's enough innocuous posts to make it seem unsuspicious. But there's also a common theme with simply bonkers content or sources that the name should be a red flag, and tankies probably take that with pride.
you sir, are a dumbass
Bro, you posted cringe! You'll be downvoted!! Well at least you didn't joke about italianism. 🤡
