Former President of the UN Security Council Kishore Mahbubani: 'The reason why the West’s arrogance at that point was a major strategic mistake was that it put the West to sleep at precisely the moment when other civilisations decided to wake up. So you closed your eyes when the... rest of the world was waking up. In the case of the Chinese, Chinese civilisation has been around for 4,000 years, and the last 40 years of economic and social development in China have been the best 40 years in 4,000 years of Chinese history. And the West said, ‘Cannot be. They’re not like us. They cannot be succeeding. That’s why I think the ‘end of history’ moment was a disastrous moment for the West, because it put the West to sleep at precisely the moment when the rest was waking up.'show more

Kishore Mahbubani (Kishore Mahbubani): The West has, in global terms, become a lonely, narcissistic civilization, self-absorbed in itself, very happy with itself, and therefore, with this narcissism, has blinded itself to the mistakes that it has made in dealing with the rest of the world. And I want to begin the story, in some ways, with the end of the Cold War in 1990, because I’m sure you all remember how the West celebrated, how happy the West was that it defeated the Soviet Union without firing a shot, and the West thought, “Hey, we have arrived.” And you even believed—this is amazing—almost everyone in the West believed that you had reached the end of history. Hooray! We don’t have to struggle anymore. We’ve made it. We made it to the top. We’ve achieved these liberal democratic societies, which are the best societies in the world. We succeeded. We have made it. The rest of you, the rest of the world, you’re going to struggle. We don’t have to struggle. And one statistic that I’m surprised that so few in the West are aware of is that the West only makes up 12% of the world’s population. Twelve percent. Eighty-eight percent lives outside the West. And the West crazily assumed at that moment of history, when it reached the end of history, that the rest of the world would come and become replicas of the West. Copy you. Follow you. And become like you. I’m sure you’ll all agree that that’s a somewhat arrogant assumption on the part of the West. But that arrogance dominated the worldview of all the Western intellectuals at that time. I know it so well because, by an accident of history, I spent a year in Harvard in ’91–’92. And I drowned in that arrogance. I could feel how the West had arrived and succeeded, and the rest of you poor chaps, get used to it, adjust to it, move on. So, the reason why that arrogance at that point was a major strategic mistake was because that arrogance put the West to sleep at precisely the moment when the other civilizations decided to wake up. So, you close your eyes when the rest of the world was waking up. And remember, China had started its Four Modernizations program in 1979 and, by 1989–1990, was gaining a lot of momentum. And then India also woke up around the early 1990s as a result of crisis, by the way. In both cases, China went through a major crisis and said, “Okay, enough is enough. Time for us to get sensible and do the right thing.” India went through a major crisis and said, “Enough is enough. Let’s do the right thing.” And, of course, what you’ve seen since then, in the case of the Chinese, the Chinese civilization has been around for 4,000 years, and the last 40 years of economic and social development in China have been the best 40 years in 4,000 years of Chinese history. And the West said, “It cannot be. They’re not like us. They cannot be succeeding. Right?” Because you assume to succeed, you must be liberal democratic. So, that clearly, that’s why I think the end-of-history moment was a disastrous moment for the West because they put the West to sleep at precisely the moment when the rest was waking up.

Ex-Singapore Ambassador on the rise of India: The West crazily assumed that the rest of the world would become replicas of the West. That was arrogant and a major strategic mistake. The West went to sleep just as civilizations like India and China were waking up and rising.

Why didn’t the Chinese accept the "Great Western Gift" of democracy? When China was weak and defenseless, the West fed China opium; When China is strong and successful, the West exports its democracy.

“When I saw Jayson Tatum in the moment he did his “We Did It” he looked like he got it…. Its the culmination of all of the stuff to get there” Real shyt, when Jayson Tatum did the “We did it” moment that to me felt like it all clicked for him. It was a rush of visualizing all of the trials and tribulations over the years to get to this point. The C’s aint no microwave made team, this was a team that has been built and molded for years now. This is the process it takes to build championship DNA lord and they just getting started 💯

In case you missed it ... Here is the chillingly methodical moment at the end of 2020 when the UK flag was removed from the EU Council building in Brussels. After 48 years of joint success, Brexiters told us we'd be better off alone. #BrexitHasFailed

REPORTER: Whose idea was it to put ICE agents in the airports? President Donald J. Trump: "Mine... you know the story of the paper clip? 182 years ago, a man discovered the paper clip. It was so simple, and everybody that looked at it said, 'Why didn't I think of that?' ICE was my idea."

The Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei became famous in the West as a dissident who opposed the government of China. However, after spending years living in the US and Europe, he came to realize that the West is extremely hypocritical and oppressive, and has no authority to criticize China.

🇧🇾🇨🇳 “You lost at least 20 years you could’ve used to contain China. Today, no one is capable of stopping China — especially with the philosophy that lives in the minds of the Chinese.” Lukashenko reflects on 30+ years of watching China rise and mocks the West for squandering its chance to compete. "It’s even made you nervous. You want to contain the development of China. That’s like trying to contain a whale."🐋

The “birthplace of coronavirus” has been flooded The Chinese city of Wuhan has been flooded due to heavy and prolonged rainfall. The city is located at the confluence of the Yangtze and Han rivers, so it regularly faces flooding. But this time the precipitation was unusually strong, and the drainage system was unable to handle the water flow. It was in Wuhan that a surge in COVID-19 cases was first recorded at the end of 2019, after which the virus spread around the world.

The woman at the window recording, ended up posting it on Facebook and the McDonald’s worker caught allot of backlash for the video because allot of context was missing. This happened on New Years Eve, that location was going to be closed at 8pm for the holiday, they ran out of food and stopped taking orders at 7:30 for that reason. At that point the Karen could have canceled her order in the app but refused because she felt it was unreasonable that the restaurant was closing early and ran out, she didn’t care that they couldn’t serve her what they didn’t have. So now knowing the full picture, should the McDonald’s worker still have been fired?

Andy Burnham: "That deindustrialisation was then compounded by deregulation, privatisation in the 90s and austerity in the 2010s. It all adds up to 40 years of neoliberalism.. 40 years of trickle down economics that did not in the end trickle down very much at all"

FIDEL CASTRO: "For 15 years we were there fighting apartheid, fighting racism till the very end. They said that we had to be imposed a blockade... because we were fighting the South African racists. South Africa was not prevented from purchasing food and medicines. And the country that was heroically fighting against the racists was not sold one medicine, one aspirin, one cytostatic for a cancer patient. That was the punishment." "There was a moment when the war was practically lost. And then we, the Cubans, we had to solve the problem. It was when the Cuito Cuanavale battle took place. You know how many troops Cuba sent to Angola at that moment? 55,000 troops. And all of them on a voluntary basis." "But at the United Nations, they don't speak about that. They applauded the independence of the African countries... the end of apartheid, as if it was the work and miracle of the United Nations. There was no mention about a single Cuban of the many Cubans who died there. The name of Cuba was not even mentioned. So look how sometimes people intend to write history forgetting reality."

This is why Belgrade was bombed. You can deny it all you want, but history has already been written, and you won't be able to change it. I suggest that the Serbian people begin to make amends, distance themselves from Russia's warmongering tendencies, and join the West. You have been settled in the Balkans for the past 1,200 years. If you do not like the West, consider going back home, but please do not attempt to destroy what we have and replace it with the extremist ideas coming from Russia, because that will lead you nowhere. There is a reason there is always peace between Croatia, Slovenia, and the rest of us, who were there way before you: they chose to align with the West. Taking the goverment from the hands of the warmongers and the most corrupt would never be enough. Serbia will succeed when its mentality aligns with Western civilization, so I hope the opposition in Serbia will be pro-West and leave Russia behind.
