When This Blows Over

Cause panic. Fear is one of the strongest human
motivators. Since the CCP controls the supply chain, they can
activate internal and external actors to lock down the supply of
medical equipment, fueling fear. This is accomplished by denying
the export of certain items like masks, threatening to ban the
export of others like pharmaceuticals, and buying up any foreign
domestic stock using their networks abroad. The rest is done by
us. Fear is strengthened by hyper-inflated models that are
blasted 24/7 to add to a frenzy that incentivizes even more
media consumption. Panic buying, hoarding, and the political
blame game follow, adding to the cycle.
Take advantage. This is the true goal of weaponized globalization.
The CCP wages a global game of ‘Go’ with a constant focus and
intermittent opportunities for accelerated risk-taking for greater gains. The
first bold move on the Go board was during the 2008 financial crisis, when
the CCP stepped from the United States’ financial shadow. China was the
beneficiary of much of the fiscal stimulus the US created to get out of crisis,
because US banks flush with cash loaned it to China for real estate
development. The difference between the current #CCPVirus-inspired crisis
and 2008 is this time the CCP holds the advantage. They knew about the
virus beforehand and could therefore control the outflow of information and
people. Any Wall Street veteran knows a pandemic will cause a panic in
the market. Thus, the CCP was well-positioned to liquidate positions,
probably quietly before anyone was even paying attention. Their next
educated guess would have been that the US and others would enact a
vast stimulus bill, which would flow into China by virtue of the fact they held
all the supply chains – more profits pour in. Meanwhile, flush with cash,
they can shore up US and other companies with that cash further
solidifying control. As an added benefit, they may reverse or at least slow
down the US effort to prevent the deployment of the Chinese 5G
networks that will take all data back to China and fulfill Kai Fu Li’s dream of
becoming “the Saudi Arabia of data.”
Game. Set. Match.
