Europe Must Recognize China for What It Is (ok I am really, really confused now...)
George Soros.com ^ | February 11, 2020 | George Soros

Posted on 02/14/2020 3:43:18 AM PST by cba123

Neither the European public nor European political and business leaders fully understand the threat presented by Xi Jinping’s China. Although Xi is a dictator who is using cutting-edge technology in an effort to impose total control on Chinese society, Europeans regard China primarily as an important business partner. They fail to appreciate that since Xi became president and General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC), he has established a regime whose guiding principles are diametrically opposed to the values on which the European Union was founded.

The rush to embrace Xi is greater in Britain, which is in the process of separating itself from the EU, than in the EU itself. Prime Minister Boris Johnson wants to distance the United Kingdom from the EU as much as possible and to build a free-market economy that is unconstrained by EU regulations. He is unlikely to succeed, because the EU is prepared to take countermeasures against the type of deregulation that Johnson’s government seems to have in mind. But in the meantime, Britain is eyeing China as a potential partner, in the hope of reestablishing the partnership that former Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne was building between 2010 and 2016.

The Trump administration, as distinct from US President Donald Trump personally, has done much better in managing its ties with China. It developed a bipartisan policy that declared China to be a strategic rival and put tech giant Huawei and several other Chinese companies on the so-called Entity List, which forbids US companies to trade with them without government permission.

Why do you find that confusing?

The entire Soros program of abolishing nations and other unchosen associations, atomizing individuals into debt slaves who consume product and tolerate globohomo corporations destroying their communities while making bankers fantastically wealthy is diametrically opposed to the semi-fascist Chinese nationalist state run by Xi Jinping.

Xi Jinping thought is a major threat to the whole Soros program, maybe the only serious threat to Soros which is left.

Why wouldn't they be enemies?

Perhaps he sees Chinese communism as a threat to the European and American communism that he is working to enact. Chinese and Russian communists did not like each other.

Both Hitler and Stalin were socialist. Their main difference was in who was to be in charge. Soros, and the hidden people behind Soros, have no interest in serving Xi.

Yeah, but I completely agree with Soros.

Completely. 100 %.

Wow. Maybe just this one issue.

He's only admitting that he sees china as a rival to his globalist hegemon dreams. soros and his cult want to rule the world using PLA-style total surveillance and control tactics, but they don't want the chinese to be the ones ruling the world.

You’re right, he does have a good point. That’s what I find shocking to my system.

Do not be too surprised that George Soros “gets it” about China.

The Soros empire was built on raiding the the central banks of various nations, by currency manipulations, and reaping the rewards in gold bullion, after devastating the market value of that currency. He and his organization have been under investigation and/or indictment for these currency manipulations, many for years standing, by the victimized countries.

In China, Soros has met a “worthy” adversary. Before Soros could get his hooks into Chinese central banking, the Chinese had already done their OWN currency manipulation (which is an ongoing thing), largely crowding out these international money traffickers.

A con man who respects and admires the con when it is worked by others.

Forget the ideologies. They are only masks for oligarchies competing for global domination. Different methods seeking the same result.

Soros might have realized that Xi is not really his partner, and certainly not his subordinate.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! What a crock.

More like China is a competitor for Soros' world view.

Exactly. As I say to people who claim Hitler was not a Marxist because he killed Communists...

There is a rich tradition of Marxists who kill each other in the battle for power.

The West has been bamboozled into believing a completely different narrative about China. Essentially they are an overcrowded, extremely polluted, third world SHITHOLE with skyscrapers, high speed internet, nukes, and lowlifes selling lab bats from a BSL-4 bio facility to the local food market to make a quick yuan off the books. (I know, why would someone do that when communism is so GREAT!)

So we get Trotsky instead of Lenin if Soros has his way.

Doesn’t sound like much of an improvement to me.
