could cast this to /geopolitics but w/e. I think that the fates of both superpower axes, US/Oceania & China/BRICS, are indelibly intertwined by the elements of FAL, namely capital-intensive industries like compute and robotics. both are critically dependent on the global consumer to justify credit and investment, both must concede the basis for this consumption is Georgist sprawl of wealth.
in other words, both will either surpass or succumb to the scarcity of these synthetic resources. as long as China continues to develop DUV and scale agentic subcomponents like fixed decision-making architecture, there will be a global bloodbath among the margin of monetization by router/orchestrator platforms.
otoh, there is a veto bandwagon that advocates against both axes. pick apart the epistemology, and there are many preferable to extinction if FAL is not privileged spoils by total capture.
