Country that lands on moon first will be able to set precedent for whether later lunar activities are open or restricted, says House space panel chair.
I don’t know if this is suppossed to be a meta-commentary/joke or not. I never said both of those things.
China is more suited for space coordination because of its productive capacity and cooperation with other nations. China will not seek to “own” outer space but to instead integrate space travel as a way to benefit itself and the world. China can care for its citizens, the US is quickly losing the ability/will to do so.
Why not try to reflect on the fact that the US only cares about space travel when China seems to overtake them ever so slightly?
I don’t care what you really feel about China, but to interpret my support for China leading the space field as ignorance is just projection.
What… If you think China supports it’s citizens and cooperates with the international community any better than the United States, and doesn’t have a colonialist agenda, you’re either speaking in bad faith or just terribly ignorant. We can sit here all day with whataboutisms, and comparison, but the truth is China is no more suited and, AT LEAST, just as ill intentioned.
Mostly it’s people in imperialist/neocolonialist countries who think China is imperialist/neocolonialist. It’s not a popular opinion in Global South countries.
Are these the same global south countries that China is building things at prices they know they can’t pay back so that they can seize them later or the China that is currently trying to take over huge parts of the ocean that belong to others under international law?
Typical projection. China is not charging the usury rates & terms that the IMF and World Bank famously do in order to put Global South countries into debt traps. And they’re not creating 800+ extraterritorial military bases to enforce them like the US has.
Even The Atlantic, voice of the colonists, wrote a deep piece debunking the Chinese debt trap. China has forgiven sooooo much debt to other nations it’s laughable you could even make this post without blushing.
LOL, when was the last time you saw a Chinese ship near Hawaii let alone California? If you want to measure intent by naval presence, you’re just going to make the opposite point you intended

Even Atlanticists admit that China has brought ~800 million people out of poverty.

What does that have to do with them trying to steal other peoples part of the ocean
You mean the parts of the ocean called the East China Sea and the South China Sea? 🤣
Foreign Policy: Surrounded: How the U.S. Is Encircling China with Military Bases
No that’s the west Taiwan Sea.
See how we can call it whatever we want, it doesn’t change the international borders
Fellas, what does having military bases in a territory have to do with control over it
?

The Atlantic, 2021: The Chinese ‘Debt Trap’ Is a Myth
Thank you
They do though
Is China shipping billions of dollars in weapons to Israel as they, in 3 months, have dwarfed Ukrainian civilian casualties over 2 years? No? Well…
Did China instigate a coup of Pakistan’s democratically-elected leader? No?
Is China the only country voting against the Right to Food pursuant to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (Article 25)? No?
Hm.
China will not seek to “own” , doubt.
Let’s see China get out of other nations’ ocean space first and then we can talk about outer space.
