zizek-theory no see he's merely wrong about the timing. surely not even china's communist party will be able to withstand the inevitable heat death of the universe, and therefore china will eventually collapse.

damnit, i am late to the party and made this joke without looking to see someone made it two hours ago.

truly, the plague of poor timing has infected me.

"I was wrong about the timing" is a weapons grade understatement when you've been doing this shit a quarter of a century lmfao

Please stop being mean to deep cover Chinese agent Chang. His carefully crafted whispering of finely tuned deceit into the ears of the anglos delayed their response and aggression against China at least once if not several times and bought China years of unimpeded development. All of you will some day apologize at his state funeral for his service in creating the Chinese century.

xi-peel but it's gordon chang in front

This is what i believe now

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

no one is ever wrong, they're just off by timing.

china will collapse at any moment between now and the heat death of the universe, and Gordon will have been vindicated.

China-earth traveling the universe from star to star until the very last one. The digital representation of Gordon makes one last post as the last speck of light is extinguished by entropy

"Honestly i think china will pull through this one"

Yes I was wrong about the central point of my thesis for 25 years but that doesn't mean I'm not an expert

[–] axont@hexbear.net 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Gordon doesn't need to hear all this he's a highly trained professional

Any time now China is gonna start a Resonance Cascade and we get to say:

"China discovered Aliens and Teleportation, but at what cost?"

Ok unrelated but this mf just defended giving refuge to the nazis who made the V2 rockets. Also the US will lose to a trade war with China because the US lacks the industrial capacity to compete with the PRC.

always fascinating to see two sides of an argument both be wrong for different reasons

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Gordon Chang admitted he was wrong about something? Uh oh, this is not good. China is in real trouble now.

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago

timing

If Gordon never stops saying China will collapse soon - he'll never be proven wrong to his satisfaction because one day he'll die.
