What's to become of us? At what point does the corruption and incompetence of western democracies make China and Russia incompetence and corruption "better" for us?
From here (h/t Emily):
China And Russia Should Lead Global Governance Reform, Suggests Xi| Countercurrents
“Moscow and Beijing should “lead the correct direction of global governance reform,” said Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Xi underlined that the development of the bilateral ties between China and Russia has become “a strategic choice made by both countries based on their own national and people’s fundamental interests.” Xi added that the importance of developing ties within such multinational groups as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and BRICS.
The Chinese President was hosting Valentina Matvienko, the speaker of Russia’s upper chamber of parliament, on Monday. Valentina Matvienko was visiting Beijing for talks.”
Well, gauntlet thrown.

There was a time when this would have been viewed with hilarity in the West, a demonstrably outrageous and easily disprovable sham.
Now, the steady growth of the infection of socialism, crony capitalism, mass migration, rampant crime amongst many other factors, points to a failure of liberal democracies – and an apparent relative superiority of “Chinese Socialism” fuelled by Russian resources. Pretty potent combination!
This may be true – not because the principles that created prosperity in liberal democracies was wrong – but because they have been subsumed in a sea of false promises – leaving China and Russia as the “cleanest dirty shirts” – (with a h/t to Bill Gross for the analogy).
But now, the differences between western liberal democracies, dominated by “green socialism” and Russian and Chinese socialism have become so blurred as to be almost non-existent.
What is the difference between a tax system in the ”liberal” democracies that takes 40% of ACTIVITY – as measured by GDP – and “Chinese” social credit that also takes 40%.
In both cases, the overall impact on a working individual is that the individual works TWO DAYS for the State.
Taxation has shifted way beyond capturing economies of scale at the State level and is now, mostly, nothing more than legalised theft – not least because of perpetual vote buying with impossible promises, but also because of ever growing bureaucracies that pay salaries to government employees and welfare benefit fraud, rather than benefits to those that actually need the welfare.
Even worse, the theft – via taxes – is no longer sufficient to cover the vote buying with impossible promises.
Governments now fully embrace the (Reagan’s?) mantra of “deficits don’t matter”. Well, they may not matter in the short term of a few years, but how about a few decades of persistent 3% deficits that accumulate into massive piles of debt?
The US has federal debt of 32.5 trillion bucks. Each 1% in interest is 325 billion bucks (almost exactly the same as is spent every year on psychiatric drugs for kids to vets and all people in between – h/t Jessica Rose’s post today “Manufactured Madness”).
The Fed will not let rates persist at 5% for much longer (a year at most?). Can you imagine the impact of the fiscal deficit of debt servicing interest payments moving toward 5% times 325 billion bucks – 1.625 trillion bucks a year? That would be 60% more than the DoD budget! The left wing lunatics would be screaming “default, default – it just doesn’t matter – just print money” (or adopt a social credit system!).
How did we get here? Socialism, dishonesty and sloth mostly. That is, replacing people and families with “the State”. Socialists and communists view families as an impediment to their dominance. The “Woke”, “Gimmedats” and the “Free Shit Army” have grown too large.
“You will have nothing and be happy” = Communism = 100% taxation and control of all methods of production.
Where are heading next? Even more socialism, at a global level.
The changes to the International Health Regulations and a pandemic accord will require extra taxes, paid to the unelected World Health Organization so that they can screw up health care even more than national governments have screwed it up so far.
You think national health care problems are bad now? Wait until there are even more incompetent and unlected bureaucrats pretending they know how to “run things”. The budget being sought by the WHO is equal to 5% of national health budgets. Developed economies spend around 12% of GDP on health care, or of more relevance, using the UK as an example, around 300 billion out of a trillion in taxes – 30% of taxes goes on health. This is not “health” – it is sickness.
Sickness caused by chemicals in drugs and injections – now made even worse with mRNA technology. All about “adverse events” not being checked in clinical trials – where such trials even take place against a true placebo.

But that’s not all!
The changes to the IHR and pandemic accord will be signed. No political leader anywhere on earth has the brains or the balls to say “No” to these changes and new rules. They simply do not have the gumption or the immunity from corruption.
The existing paradigm is “inject chemicals and expect healing” now supplemented by “inject poison and expect immunity”. Laughable.
The entire health system needs an enema – several enemas, several long enemas.
So, next. The UN is angling for global dominance.

United Nations Preparing to Expand into Single-World Government - Slay News
“The Emergency Platform policy brief would grant the Secretary-General ‘standing authority to convene and operationalize’ a response to a broad array of international crises with minimal consultation with the member states, including the U.S.”
The emergency platform would also ensure “that participating actors make clear commitments that directly and immediately support the global response to a complex shock.”
These participating actors include the UN’s member states like the U.S., China, European Union countries, and the U.K.”
A climate emergency will be declared. Massive new open cast mines will scar the planet to supply the raw materials for batteries, billions of gallons of water will be polluted “washing out” the raw materials and millions more kids will be enslaved to “help”.
Next , there will be a stealth tax - cheap and available hydrocarbons will be replaced with a need for trillions of bucks to be spent on expanding the electricity transmission grid needed to recharge billions of new batteries.
We had a taste of the impact on electricity prices at the start of the war in Ukraine. Magnify that by ten times. People will be rooting round for bugs and snakes to eat as they won’t be able to afford the prices being charged for crops (no meat allowed remember? It farts too much).

after we use up all our military reserves in Ukraine with the help of Milley will Russi and China just be allowed to walk into the USA and take over?
These are post reset issues; For now to 2025, over the next 3-4 years, its important to purge & cull all UK commonwealth countrys ( including USA penal colony ); Then post 2030 you will be told about NWO
Me thinks that of course CHINA&RUSSIA will rule, because they will be the last man standing, but like Clinton said in 1990's "Now is the pivot to ASIA", every century or two the ZOG UK bankers flip the game and reset/purge & cleanse and resell the lands, it makes them richer, but it also heals the elites world view of their Utopia;
There is no doubt that USA & EUROPE are full of human garbage most without redemption; Ergo the culling;
The model of a joint Russia/China is not going to happen the cultures are too different;
Russia will continue to be Orthodox and China Taoism; All in involve family and villages that work together and not against.
What the USA has proved to the world, that a society, say like big-pharma where everybody fucks & kills each other just leads to insanity & poverty;
...
The USA is kaput; So of course SCO&BRICS will lead, because it will be the last man standing, and they have the GOLD & Resources to back up their 'trust', as without trust, you cannot have a currency or trading relationship;
Probably the biggest thing to fix, is the rule of law; Which is gone in USA, and doesn't really exist in China, a little in Russia;
For instance while in CHINA a company cannot rip me off, for I can kill the CEO; But in China ripping off foreign customers is all good, nobody gives a fuck So China has to fix this problem if they want 'respect&trust' of the world;
Same for Russia
IMHO the Rule of Law will not return, may never return; It was a good idea, but the USA with too many fucking lawyers killed the 'Law'
At least in all of ASIA the law is simple, if a doctor kills a child, the village kills that doctor, no mal-practice insurance needed, bad doctor only happens once
Same in a motor accident in ASIA you run over a child they will grab you and kill you. Same for "RAPE", if a man is caught raping a child or young woman, that man will die the same day; No trial, no need for fucking asshole lawyers and rotten prison systems locking people up for non-violent crimes.
