There is a big thaw in China relations. Why would XI risk WWIII when he can take us from within without firing a shot? China is a Technocracy that panders to Technocrats. Technocrats pander to China. When Zbigniew Brzezinski pandered to Chairman Deng Xiaoping in 1974, he taught him about the merits of Technocracy. Given Musk's family ties to Technocracy in the 1930s, it is obvious why he wants to pander to Xi. There's a lot of pandering going on. Chinese citizens should call their dear leader - "Pander Bear."
