The Dongfeng 41 is scary alright, and trust the Dongfeng dicks can wipe out the Wicked Empire of America in 30 minutes. But as you already know, it takes much more than lethal military toys to save your red ass.
To keep the Red Flag flying over Dragonland, it looks like you really need to create a “Global Currency + Settlement System”.
It’s as simple as Satan may attack you, He can’t take on most of the world at the same time.
Thinking of using Yuan? No, Yuan won’t do.
You may have implemented the Social Credit System, but China as a nation doesn’t have an admirable credit score. And not likely to have one for as long as you’re still flying the Red Flag and living a Red way of life. You’d have better chance to work with others, especially the Russian Bear for the global common currency.
Hey, gimme a lil franchise should you decide to go ahead. But really, I think you don’t have a choice in the long run. Without “global financial system” of your own, I am afraid the great children of the Dragon may have to don a black dress sometime in the not too distant future.
And as mentioned during previous article, we await commentary from intelligentsia why the Coming War on China will not come? Becos many think it’s coming …
The Coming War On China
The world’s greatest military power, the United States, and the world’s second economic power, China, both nuclear-armed, may well be on the road to war.
Any doubt, take a look at this map: –
US Military bases surrounding China
Nuclear war is not only imaginable, but planned. The greatest build-up of NATO military forces since the Second World War is under way on the western borders of Russia. On the other side of the world, the rise of China is viewed in Washington as a threat to American dominance. To counter this, President Obama announced a ‘pivot to Asia’, which meant that almost two-thirds of all US naval forces would be transferred to Asia and the Pacific, their weapons aimed at China. A policy which has been taken up by his successor Donald Trump, who during his election campaign said “We can’t continue to allow China to rape our country and that’s what they’re doing”.

Meanwhile,
The Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act was passed by the House. Yes, U.S. absolutely can be influenced by the Hong Kong demonstrators.
The bill says that “The Department of State shall report annually to Congress as to whether Hong Kong is sufficiently autonomous from China to justify its unique treatment. The report shall assess whether China has eroded Hong Kong’s civil liberties and rule of law as protected by Hong Kong’s Basic Law.”
The Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act also stipulates annual reports by the US Department of Commerce, with regard to China’s “efforts to use Hong Kong to evade U.S. export controls and sanctions.”
It would also allow the president to impose sanctions and US entry bans on individuals found to be responsible for torturing people in Hong Kong.
Nice. And,
Beijing Vows ‘Strong’ Response to US Legislation in Support of Hong Kong Protesters
China describes it as “shocking hypocrisy” toward human rights and democracy and vowing “strong countermeasures.”
“We express strong indignation on and firm opposition to the US House of Representative’s passage of the so-called Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act,” the ministry’s spokesman, Geng Shuang, said in a statement.
According to the ministry, the situation in Hong Kong “has nothing to do with human rights or democracy,” with the main efforts of the city authorities aimed at ending violence and defending the rule of law…. Blah, blah, blah.
Okay, we know. So, what now?
Whatcha Gonna Do?

China is upset (and so is LeBron probably)!
‘King James’ Applauded in China as He Calls Out NBA Exec’s Support of Hong Kong Protesters
NBA star LeBron James, who is known to have a legion of supporters in China, along with a lucrative contract with Nike, which operates mainly in the Asian country, found fault with the Houston Rockets’ manager, who had earlier posted words of support for Hong Kong residents that had been protesting new legislation since June.
Lakers forward LeBron James publicly slammed Morey over the remarks, calling him “uneducated” and warning that his words could have caused people to be physically “harmed.”
LeBron says he believes Rockets GM Daryl Morey wasn’t educated when he spoke about Hong Kong and that his tweet could have hurt a lot of people, including financially pic.twitter.com/UMj71DPQH7

We look forward to hearing from LeBron and his condemnation of the Democrats’ attack on China.
As usual, our minute tribute to the Dragonland…
