Whatever the future brings, China will be the dominant entity in the world within a few decades, as it has been naturally for millennia.
During his current visit, the Chinese president explained that China must make up for two centuries of backlog, because the 19th century and partly even the 20th century was a century of humiliation, to which the Hungarian Prime Minister responded by saying that the 20th century was the century for Hungary as well. entered our history as a century of disgraces. Today, China is a westernized super-capitalism fed by ancient sacred spiritual roots that have existed for several millennia, but now (apparently at least) operated as a communist system, where there are already more dollar billionaires than in America.
However, such a sentence, which seems to be morphologically appropriate, does not reveal anything about what is the "something" that we see as China.
In order to get a little closer to understanding the mysterious super-complex system that is China today, an interpretative framework and set of concepts is (or rather should be) needed, which does not really exist yet, so from now on I will only make an attempt to to try to interpret the uninterpretable while formulating a string of assumptions.
This deeper understanding would be necessary because, no matter what the future brings, China will be the dominant entity in the world within a few decades, just as it has been for thousands of years in the way nature has given it.
It is perhaps more accurate to say that the natural order of the world will soon be restored (that is, that China defines the world), which natural order only slipped somewhat during the two centuries between 1850 and 2050, the main reason for which was that the modern West used China as the helpless "object" of the most brutal plunder in world history. This is exactly what the Chinese president was referring to, "bringing back the two centuries of backlog".
The world war conflict now seems inevitable precisely because China's ruling structures want to make it clear that this will definitely happen, whatever the masters of the westernized organization of existence think about it.
China's loss in the "century of humiliations" was caused by the fact that it could not completely isolate itself from the West at first, and thus made it a free prey in the wake of the "opium wars".
And later, although it successfully sequestered itself, it used a fanciful organizational method called "communism", which was good for seclusion, but proved to be unsuitable for providing an alternative model capable of technologically keeping pace with the West. Today we know that this was impossible in the first place, because this model was created as an ideology manufactured by the West (by a cunning agent named Karl Marx) precisely for the accelerated liquidation of the peasant societies of the peripheries and thus to make them "pre-digested" for global capitalism.
However, after the terrible internal conflicts and catastrophic decline during the 1970s, a world power accident opened the way for finding and implementing a previously unimaginable organizational method, which has historically been considered as "the solution" for China in the past half century.
The West, and through it the US empire that dominates the world, "killed two birds with one stone" by opening this path for China.
One of them was that it "torn" China off from its main rival, the Russian empire, which at the time was known as the Soviet Union, and on the other hand, it also brought under its control a gigantic "labor field" that could be mined by open pit mining. The first American companies to relocate to China did not pay a tenth of what they should have paid an American worker for the same work. In other words, in a system thus stripped of its ideological barriers, American technology has activated the most powerful profit pump in world history.
But, and this required two thousand years of sophisticated intellectual knowledge on the part of the Chinese ruling groups, all of this could have been a successful westernized super-capitalism for China, because the process was kept under strict power control, to which the institutions of "communism", which was in fact only maintained as a "decoration", added the functional organizational background. This was and still is the main structural obstacle to China becoming a semi-periphery that can be plundered without limits.
The assumption of fabulous profits and the impossibility of China's technology catching up as evidence in the first decades "sedated" the "vigilance" of the West and the American empire, only one instructive "episode" occurred, in 1989. At that time, there was still an attempt by the Western powers to dismantle or at least weaken this ruling institution used as a control with a "fake colorful" revolution under the guise of "democratic reforms", but the Chinese elites, admittedly at the cost of some blood sacrifice, made it very clear that they are not really receptive to the looting attempt under the guise of "liberal democracy".
Thus, the "democratic revolution", due to lack of interest, fell behind in the field of Heavenly Peace.
On the other hand, over the last decade, what has generated a conflict area that has now risen to the level of world war tension is that for the American empire, the "new empire" that is about to be created from the Eurasian cooperation system of Europe, Russia and China can be interpreted as a fatal blow, which it must destroy at any cost. . Ukraine was merely "in the right place at the right time" because it seemed to be the most suitable firing range to start the third world war.
But the Chinese president's visit to Europe was now a "message" to the American empire that this "project" of itss would not succeed.
