People think the British Empire (the world's largest) was no more.

But that's functionally incorrect.

It simply passed the reigns to the American Empire, which now exercises global hegemony thru the "rules-based international order".

Britain and Sons Ltd. is still in business.
Moreover, many people still do not understand what the "rules-based international order" actually is.

They often confuse it with freedom & democracy.

Or they think it's the same as the UN international rules.

It's not.

The "order" is mainly monetary:

threadreaderapp.com/thread/1523759…
This is why many people are confused when the Five Eyes nations (🇬🇧,🇺🇸,🇨🇦,🇦🇺,🇳🇿) seemingly moved in lockstep with each other... even when those moves were contrary to the interests of their masses.

Britain & Sons Ltd. is one company... led by the elites of their societies.
People are even more confused when the EU nations (at the behest of the U.S. through NATO) seemingly made decisions that are contrary to the interests of their masses.

Britain & Sons Ltd. also have European elite "shareholders". Together they control the world's monetary system.
So what are the monetary instruments of this system?

SWIFT, USD as world reserve currency, IMF, World Bank, British controlled offshore tax havens & a number of large Wall Street banks & investment firms.

This is the core part of the "rules-based international order".
Like any world order, the "rules-based international order" also has its own military to enforce submission.

They're called the U.S. military.

And since Britain & Sons Ltd. is a pan-European company, its "shareholders" also contribute to the military.

They're called NATO.
Moreover, like most companies, Britain & Sons Ltd. also has its own PR and marketing arm.

They're called Western media.

Would you be surprised if I told you the world's biggest media & entertainment companies are owned and controlled by just a handful of Western billionaires?
Does Britain & Sons Ltd. have non-Western collaborators?

Absolutely. And they're all over the world.

The Chinese government has successfully prosecuted some of the billionaire collaborators within its borders.

Some managed to escape to the West and fight the CPC from there.
So why do Britain & Sons Ltd. and their "shareholders" see China as a threat?

The answer is clear when you understand that the "rules-based international order" is mainly a monetary system.

China has built a parallel monetary system that's more equitable for developing nations.
China's monetary system was initially designed to shield its own (and by extension its trading partners') economy from being abused by the Western elites that control the current monetary system.

For example, Britain & Sons Ltd. has sanctioned numerous countries it doesn't like.
So in order to escape the financial stranglehold of the "rules-based international order", China created:

- AIIB as alt. to IMF & World Bank
- CIPS as alt. to SWIFT
- UnionPay as alt. to MasterCard & VISA
- eYuan as potential alt. to USD

... and the BRI as the modern Silk Road.
Since China is the largest trading partner of most countries in the world, these countries were able to bypass the monetary system of Britain & Sons Ltd. and transact directly with China.

They chose China's system due to better terms, fairness, respect and mutual benefits.
Moreover, countries that are heavily sanctioned under the "rules-based international order" were able to survive and trade due to China's alternative system.

Russia (currently sanctioned by Britain & Sons Ltd.) is one of the many beneficiaries of this Chinese system.
Conclusion:

Britain & Sons Ltd. and their "shareholders" know that by controlling the world's monetary system, they exercise great power over the world's governments.

It's a monopoly that they will never willingly relinquish.

And they would risk WW3 to preserve their "order".
Conclusion: (cont.)

Britain & Sons Ltd. has also assessed that only China has the financial, technology, economic & military means to successfully defy its "rules-based international order".

This is why the "company" has been waging asymmetric (esp. info) wars against China.
Addendum:

I coined the term 'Britain & Sons Ltd.' to better explain the continuation of Western imperialism via the "rules-based international order".

But do not forget that although the EU elites are "shareholders" of the "company", it's mainly the USA & UK that runs the show.
Addendum:

148 years ago, there was an actual British company that had an army twice the size of the British army.

It had the royal charter to make war, mint money & even colonise countries.

It ruled India, HK & parts of SE Asia.

It was called the British East India Company... Image
Addendum:

Britain & Sons Ltd.

🇬🇧 = Founder & Chief Advisor
🇺🇸 = CEO
🇦🇺 = Chief Marketing Officer & Deputy Sheriff
🇳🇿 = Chief Compliance Officer
🇨🇦 = Assistante Personnelle du Président-Directeur Général (Personal Assistant to the CEO)

🇪🇺 = Shareholders

Did you know?

After China lost to imperialist Japan in 1895, Beijing was forced to cede Taiwan to Tokyo & pay 200 million taels of silver.

That’s nearly 4x the annual income of Japan itself.

Like the Western powers, stolen wealth gave Japan a head start in modernisation.
2/

For the first time in its history, China had to borrow money to pay its invaders.

The concept of “banking” didn’t exist prior to the arrival of Western imperialists; China was so rich it never had to borrow.

By the end of the 19th century, China was heavily in debt to HSBC.
3/

It was the British Empire that kickstarted China’s century of humiliation.

The Qing monarchy was too quick to placate Britain by conceding money & territory rather than fight on.

This emboldened Japan & other Western imperialists to also start wars with China.

I admire @jacksonhinklle launching the American Communist Party.

Reducing the political influence of the billionaire class is what America needs to regain its sovereignty from wealthy Zionist vampires.

Sadly, many Americans have been brainwashed to blindly hate communism…
2/

Many American conservatives believe that communism is a Jewish agenda.

In reality, Jewish billionaires together with the U.S. gov have waged endless wars against communism for decades.

EVERY communist-run country in the world has experienced U.S. attempt to overthrow them.
3/

The main reason why the U.S. billionaire class hates communists is because communist-run countries have strong financial, asset & capital flow protection.

No matter how rich the billionaires are, they couldn’t buy up such a country or manipulate its economy through finance.

White supremacists believe they’re the master race.

Jewish supremacists believe they’re the “chosen ones”.

Both believe they have the right to dominate & exploit others.

And both have been partners in the West’s war profiteering & colonialism since the 1700s.

But…
2/

Since the 20th century, the Jewish partner has grown stronger than its White supremacist partner.

Jewish billionaires now run the West & get the lion share of the war profits.

The elites of the White supremacists still benefit, so they’re ok. But not the rank & file.
3/

Before the 1900s, the White supremacists were seniors of the colonial partnership.

The Jewish supremacists provide the finance for the enterprise.

The White supremacists provide the leadership & muscle.

Together they invade, genocide, colonise & plunder the Global South.

Did you know?

U.S. capitalists goaded & funded Nazi Germany to attack communist USSR.

But when Hitler’s defeat was imminent, the U.S. capitalists switched sides.

The result?

War devastated both Germany & USSR.

The unscathed U.S. capitalists get to define the new world order.
To U.S. capitalists, preventing a country’s assets from being owned by private companies is a communist idea that can’t be permitted to spread.

It’s why they backed Hitler against USSR.

And it’s why U.S. has attempted to overthrow every single communist-run country since WW2.
Now there’s one communist-run country that the U.S. has tried to overthrow multiple times but failed.

Today, this country has become so rich & powerful that U.S. capitalists would risk another world war to overthrow it…

The West doesn’t like African immigrants.

But the West is also opposed to China developing infrastructure in Africa that will improve living standards & make Africans want to stay home.

The West needs to understand it cannot have both.
The West has bombed, toppled & looted Africa for decades.

It used foreign aid to prop up puppet regimes while ordinary Africans remained poor.

Today, Africans are benefiting from tangible Chinese infrastructure.

But the West tries to smear & kneecap Chinese effort in Africa.
By the way, the West did build some ports & railroads in colonial times… to carry minerals from African mines to Europe!

But China built telecoms, public infrastructure & transport networks that connect different parts of Africa to boost local commerce.

See the difference?

If China blockades Taiwan today, there’s ZERO the U.S. can do.

Not even a sanction.

The last thing the U.S. can afford is China stop exporting to America… or worse, stop accepting USD for all international payments.

Nations would be dumping their dollars left, right & centre.
In almost all international business-to-business & business-to-customer transactions, Chinese businesses accept only USD.

(with few exceptions such as Russia where bilateral trade is totally in CNY & RUB).

So can you imagine what would happen if China refuses to accept the USD?
If sanctioned by USA, China would take an economic hit for sure.

But China has enough trade with the rest of the world to compensate for the loss… just like Russia.

On the other hand, the U.S. would experience economic/financial collapse & social unrest.

See who suffers more?
