I've never claimed to be an expert. I think the notion that I am is from your mind, but all the same I take the compliment if that is how you see me. To me it is more a recent interest. We can talk about the Italian renaissance if you like. I used to have a similar interest in that time and place or perhaps the Arts and Crafts movement of 19th century Britain, another interest I used to have. I apologise if I gave the impression that I thought that you were an expert on China . I was pointing out that you seem to think that you have a great deal of knowledge about China when your only experience of China is talking to Chinese people online . I don’t think that you have a clue about China tbh. You are showing you lack of finesse. Surely there is a range of possibilities between "great deal of knowledge" and "don't have a clue"? Again I've never said I have a great deal of knowledge. I say what I do know, but you take that to be a great deal of knowledge, which I don't consider it to be. My point is one of the mass media-educated British moron has a complete lack of knowledge where I feel I've at least mastered the basics. I use the knowledge I do have to help those with less knowledge learn more. I would be grateful if someone else who had more knowledge than I did on a subject and imparted that to me, but what I now understand is the ignorance is self-inflicted. The media has trained the public to hate to learn. They believe ignorance is bliss as far as i can see and become hostile when someone tries to help them. Some homeless tramps are like that. They don't want help from those who are better off and can find them a place to live. They are happy being down and out.

I’ll repeat my previous post “So what you are saying is that no one takes you seriously except yourself and the only person who you take seriously is yourself ?” You may not be aware of the former though.

You massage your own ego in front of the forum and get pissy when you are not taken seriously . You are the pub bore who tries so hard to be interesting but is always doomed to be the pub bore . When everyone but you is out of step then maybe it’s you that’s out of step…

Will China become No 1 superpower?1) Perhaps but will it even last that long,I doubt it.The US is in a downward spiral and 2) many peoples hate the US because of their success and that goes with the territory and they will continue to be hated by some as The Brits are for their long gone empire and are still hated by many for that even now,by some in the US too ( see types like Biden). 3) Fools who think a fellow fool saying let’s make America great again will make it happen deserve all they get.4) Being top dog has its drawbacks which China will learn along the way if they make it,and they’ll need to.. 1) China has a very successful economic model embracing Capitalism hungrily in a few short steps to over-shadow the American economy … on what evidence do you doubt it’s longevity?. …. Is America planning triggering a nuclear war with Russia and China?? …. I can understand the current Administration(shambles) being that stupid … Don’t be such ‘sore losers’ … and ‘evolve’ …. As Baron lectured correctly - it starts with EDUCATION. 2) Many hate America … with the way it does ‘business and bullying’ … ‘war-mongering’ and ‘division’. Nothing else. … Envy … nah! … Good luck to them if they are bright, innovative, do well … and ‘play fair’ …. But they don’t.3) Trump was well on the way to healing fundamental U.S. economic, border security and military complex over-spend issues, while delivering a strong World security package through negotiation … not war. … regenerating immigrant communities in America encouraging business growth - not BLM rioting, plunder and destruction. Strengthening Law and Order … not weakening it forcing hundreds of thousands of mass resignations of experienced Officers. Those controlling Biden took America backwards these past 2 years … and broke their economic model. ….Dems are idiots - confirmed. 4) They already made it … and won’t make the stupid mistake to lose their New Empire to foreigner anarchists in 3 short years … the time Soros injected $$$ and ramped up BLM anarchy through University campuses and tore up black ghettos … using their MSM to destroy the USA from the INSIDE. Dumb Dems willing pawns to that self-inihilation. 🤣👏 Another Zionist ‘Inside Job’. … Ho hum …. Conspiracy Factists warned everyone that the WEST … and America in particular, needed a ‘clean broom’ applied at the very TOP.A terror cell got in the Government. I've never claimed to be an expert. I think the notion that I am is from your mind, but all the same I take the compliment if that is how you see me. To me it is more a recent interest.

Do let us know?? 🤔 🙄 If you wasn’t a conspiracy theory nutcase and doesn’t more time reading this thread to find out why I reacted to ‘ baron ‘ then you might not have put your size two feet into your size ten gob. Here is the part of the ‘ barons’ post I objected to. ”You catch my drift? Our country is up its arse and not worth listening to for advice. The world moves on into the future. I then flick back to the comments of Time Radio listeners. They are all ill-educated on world affairs and I spend my time trying to teach them the basic facts. It's my bit of charity to the country that raised me. Poor sods. ” Google and YouTube are goldmines for conspiracy nut cases and internet bores who deluded themselves that they have insights that other people do not .

Look, … when intelligent people are in a small corner of the Forum have a polite intellectual discussion … don’t butt in and ‘parade’ your ignorance?, kapitche? … now scuttle off and ‘troll’ elsewhere.
Meanwhile, back to the symptoms of the Fall of the American Empire … America’s ‘sore loser - let’s trigger nuclear war’ spoilt brat response to Russia and China teaching them how to do Capitalism and Education.

You might like a small glimpse of the latest developments from our friends the Hindus.
Over in the US people like Yellen have just been told to admit there is a problem with the dollar's reserve status.
I guess we have been saying this for sometime now. There's nothing like up-to-date/round the clock news to keep us informed the moment something happens!

Look when people who pretend that they are intelligent, do so by insisting other people are not intelligent ie “if you disagree you are thick “ then I will challenge that. You merely the second cheek on a forum arse. Your second sentence reduces a rather complex situation into one that is simple enough for you to comprehend. The idea that RUSSIA has been an example to follow regarding capitalism is as ignorant as it is infantile . The is not threatening nuclear war either , it is Russia. Where do you get this shit from ?

Something odd is going on out there.
For ages now the UK propaganda machine has been trying to put down President Putin as the worst man on the planet in a standard trash job format as they were all trained to do at journalism school.
Meanwhile time goes on and new economic figures are published. These figures don't lie, and everyone knows it. The trouble they have to explain is how worst man on the planet's economy has done well compared to Western economies dropping like a stone, as indeed it was planned for the Russian economy.
You constantly get these images on the media of President Putin doing this and that as the news rolls in. The thing is, it is starting to look like President Putin is one hell of a tough guy. Other world leaders must be thinking, how the hell did he do that! They are impressed. His status is now far higher than it ever was. He's had to pass the test and take on the dragon. Few ever fight the dragon. Saddam tried it by trying to establish an alternative currency backed by precious metals. There have been many others as well, and all have met their fate.

Imo Putin is a genius ( if you accept this definition “exceptional intellectual or creative power or other natural ability.”). He has managed to harness the Russian gangster society and is now firmly in charge . In my humble opinion the key to the success of the Russian economy is because of it’s huge resources . It can’t produce much worth buying except what it can dig out of the ground and weapons .

The Democrat Party are shit. The Republicans are shit. The USA needs more parties and a better voting system and elections which are not dominated by money.
Both the Republicans and the Democrats fucked over Afghanistan. They fucked over Iraq 20 years ago. They support the Saudi dictatorship.
Absolute arseholes and hypocrites the lot of them.
I don't need conspiracy theories to tell me that, I only need follow the news.

We’ve been giving you ‘conspiracy facts’ for years on this space … and the last Forum … and you’ve been collectively ignoring it … glad you are now FINALLY coming around to analysing what is wrong with the WEST … and why other Nations are THROUGHLY PISSED OFF with the calibre of our Leadership right now … especially NATO.🤔
…. Your problem has been because you follow the news …. MSM … no wonder you’ve been slow on the uptake?! 🤪🤯
The people who own that also rig the political landscape … or haven’t you quite figured that out yet! … 😖

It can’t produce much worth buying except what it can dig out of the ground and weapons . His PhD was how to run a state on mineral resources. Now he has had to do it for real and indeed it looks like he well deserved that PhD given it is now thoroughly tried and tested.
As I keep trying to remind folk, the KGB never let in any idiots. Getting into the KGB was like say being smart enough to get into Oxford for the Brits.
You can separate the men from the puppets by their intelligence as leaders go. Zelensky is an idiot/President Putin is the opposite. Same too with Biden.

He is a genius in the same way as Charles Luciano was a genius. You need to be exceptionally clever to rise to the top of a foremost criminal gang . Zelensky is an extremely clever man. Biden confirms to me something that I always suspected. The POTUS is not as powerful as we think. The US can function without the President actually doing much.
