The world will be split between countries that trade freely with China and countries that don’t.
This will be the test and control for whether trading with China is good or bad.
Dear Americans, be prepare to get screwed!

Turns out it’s bad, but since we all moved our industry there. Well shits fucked.

Other countries are reporting different and positive results. I think this is the kind of thing that we will see the outcome of decades later. It will be interesting to see how much of the perceived negative impact is due to ingrained racism and xenophobia especially in the West.

Oh no, what will I ever do if I can’t keep buying stuff I dont need.
“Americans might have trouble expressing greedy tendencies under a Trump presidency.”
The entitlement of americans is absurd. Palestinian children are killed with made in america bombs while our population weeps over its loss of made in china electronics.
Clearly the american dream is dead if you can’t replace your computer every year.

Your post right there? That’s one of the reasons Harris lost.
Of course people (not just Americans) are selfish. Doesn’t matter if it’s good or not, that’s just the factual truth. The Republicans knew how to work with that, by selling the voters a solution to the things that actually interested them. That’s also what helped Obama (“Hope”, though a bit vague) and Bill Clinton (“It’s the economy, stupid”) get elected (Yes, it also didn’t hurt that they were rock stars). Now the Democrats are perceived not only as a party that’s not willing to work on issues that concern them, but as actually criticizing them for wanting what they want.

I’m upgrading to 9800x3d now so I should be set until the end of Trump’s presidency.
BlueMacaw@lemmy.world 6 days ago
I’m on a 5800x3d, pretty set right now, but that’s a good point…

It sucks the prices will go up, and I’m not saying I want this but I feel like they would go up higher than this based on what he said.

I’m not sure what’s worse. the fact you can understand the incoherence or that you believed any of it.

- Not true at all. Vile lies spread by the Democrats.
- Okay, maybe it is true, but it’s actually a good thing.
- Okay, maybe the results are catastrophic, but it’s actually the Democrats’ fault. The solution is higher tariffs.

Trump’s not going to need to apply tarifs.
Biden has both Russia and China on the back foot with failing economies, and significant social unrest. Both are desperate to make a deal with Trump. Trump only succeeds in negotiation when he can bully his adversary.
If Biden had the faculties, he could have whipped both countries and probably avoided this mess.

Actually, I am really removed from the US domestic situation, and only impacted by the US foreign policy situation.
I’m just trying to point out that he can use his threats to get what he wants, which is the only tactic that he actually knows how to do. Unless he got smarter since his last tern.

Trump whipped Mexico really well into paying for that wall.
Trump just talks a bunch of shit lol. That’s actually why he won. Because he promised everything to everyone. He doesn’t have any real plans other than those related to genitals and immigrants. He never backs it up with any evidence either
Trump negotiated really well with Foxconn too. Remember that 10 billion factory they were gonna build thanks to Trump?
In fact, I’m actually willing to bet petrol prices and power prices will increase too. Because suddenly, batteries and solar have less competition and even if manufacturered in US, they can raise their prices
It’s just really dumb 😂
jaxxed@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Trump talks shit, and he’s weak at taking action. That is my point. Here he can likely get away with talking shit, and his opponents will cave.
The wall was bs, but he did get nafta renegotiated by bullying.
He’s got a good chance at coming out of RU and CN negotiations looking good, despite not doing anything.
He’s nothing but a bully, which might actually work here. If it does, then the authoritarians shithawks are going to look really good.

China loosing USA as a buyer would mean raising prices for other countries to make up for the loss.

Gods I hope people stop buying useless crap every other week then and production slows down and then ‘maybe’ we can enjoy a somewhat better climate before things get worse.

At some point it becomes easier to just travel to places to buy your gpus and such. When I was in Singapore, their prices on electronics were both good and compatible with my own stuff. I visit there to see an old MMO friend and it’s just… Closer to the source, I guess.
