What I find profoundly disturbing about that is that humiliation is the worst thing in Chinese culture, the worst thing. Okay. So the Chinese are not about to go up to the moon and have their asses handed to them. Moreover, the Chinese are going to the moon in collaboration and cooperation with the Russians.

The Chinese and the Russians plan to build a space station that orbits the moon and then send astronauts from the space station down to the surface of the moon, right? If there's that degree of cooperation between Russia and China on the moon, it means the Soviet dossier has been handed over to the Chinese. The Soviet dossier? Yeah, the Soviet dossier on the moon. Oh. Okay? Okay. Yeah.

What's in that? Right. Everything the Americans encountered on the moon, which is why the Soviets never went to the moon. Remember, we were competing with the Soviet Union to go to the moon. Yeah. Why is it that we went up there and then all the Soviets just decided to cancel their moon program? No. They knew. Of course they knew. They knew.

And also there were discussions in the Soviet Union at that time that, okay, if America makes it to the moon first, we'll go to Mars first. They figured it out.

neither are for the taking neither the moon nor mars so what's really disturbing about the chinese initiative is that if the chinese of all people are planning to go up there and i don't know if not colonize at least do some scientific research or whatever right it means they've gotten clearance from the people that are there that's right that's right now what and notice how the balance of power is shifting in the world toward china

Is it really? It is.

Is it really? It is.

Is it really? It is.

Look, I mean, it has been. Now, whether that can be reversed is another question. But... If you wanted to manage a global totalitarian state with ubiquitous surveillance and an extremely technocratic form of government with little personal freedom, a control society on a global scale, the Chinese would be the optimal people to put in charge for that because it fits the values of Confucianism.

Okay? So if someone... on the moon, potentially also on Mars, wants to impose a totalitarian world government on Earth, they're not going to make a deal with the United States. They're going to make a deal with China. That's what I find most disturbing about Chinese plans to go to the moon.
