I’m not concerned about wellbeing of China but about the future of the West, simply because I am European.
Quality of our products decline rapidly when they are not optimized for our needs but the needs of the country to compete with China.
What terrifies me the most is becoming like China to compete with them(Where every individual msu provide for its country and not the other way around). I was shocked when TikTok was almost banned in the USA and people were rallying for it because China is banning US social media.
Please don’t become China. If the US becomes like China, I am afraid Europe will follow and the world will be dominated by the Chinese way of life where individual rights and freedoms are limited in the name of national security.

Let's start with low standards -- say, labor rights. Most Western countries cannot be competitive in manufacturing because of this differential.
The problem is that China doesn't play fair, so if the west plays perfectly fair against them, we won't beat them even though we're better.
