New research shows China leads research in 90% of crucial technologies & ignoring this means were living in a delusional bubble, where we still think the West is the Sci-Tech leader.
I think a lot of people are in denial, or just cant accept that China is already the world's leading nation for science and technology. I can't blame them for their ignorance. Most English language media studiously avoid mentioning it. Time and time again, I see topics like AI, space & robotics covered, with only developments in Western countries talked of, as if China doesn't exist despite the fact that it's now the leader in so many fields.
The problem with complacency and ignorance is that it gives you a really distorted map of reality. You can't understand how the 21st century is developing without factoring in China, and ignoring China means you're being delusional.

They literally lost a Nobel laureate to China because of the retarded administration making it a pain in the ass to stay there. Hundreds of scientists are being incentivized to join East Asian and European institutions. Trump becoming president was probably the greatest gift America could give to the rest of the world

Even our own are coming back here. It's gotten so bad that china used to have to pay to get their people now they don't even want to leave.
The tech ceos tried to suck up to Trump at the start of his goverment but MAGAdehatis are even worse than trump in that they geniuely think they can keep up with China in AI without chinese AI researchers
