Serious question I've been wanting to know forever:

Is it game-theoretically possible for both "The West" and China to be synergistic economically and thrive together?

This is the world I wanna see

Without this, I don't think there will even be a world to see in the medium-long term

Yes. This is Silicon Valley at its best: where Westerners, Chinese, Indians, and people from around the world collaborate in positive sum, win/win competition.

It’s a model for meritocratic selection of global leaders. Someone like Zuck is who he is because billions of people “voted” for him, and can opt out if they don’t like his products.

The next step is to formalize that intuition, clean up the many edge cases, and create true technopolitical leaders.
