547. Challenging Reality: Chinese Cognitive Warfare and the Fight to Hack Your Brain​

“Be subtle! be subtle! and use your spies for every kind of business.” — Sun Tzu, The Art of War

[Editor’s Note: While China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) shares five military domains with the U.S. — Land, Air, Sea, Space, and Cyber — it also recognizes two additional domains: Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) and Cognitive.

Trump is furious at China, but he’s making US foes great again​

President Donald Trump is mad that China is palling around with his strongmen friends.

China sends veiled warning to US​

China‘s top military official struck a hawkish tone at Beijing’s premier defense conference on Thursday, issuing a pointed warning against a world ruled by the “law of the jungle” in a thinly veiled swipe at the United States.

Why It Matters​

Chinese Defense Minister Dong Jun delivered the keynote address at the Beijing Xiangshan Forum, the country’s most prominent annual defense gathering, attended by defense officials, scholars, and observers from more than 100 countries, including the U.S.

Dong’s remarks come amid ongoing tensions between Beijing and Washington, with the two sparring over issues ranging from Taiwan and the South China Sea to U.S. alliances and military deployments in the Asia-Pacific.

Ronnie Chan: “The West Has No Idea What’s Coming…”​

Oct 22, 2025
The world is changing — and the West isn’t ready for it.In this powerful interview, Hong Kong billionaire and philanthropist Ronnie Chan delivers a brutally honest message about China’s rise, America’s decline, and the collapse of the old world order.
Speaking with Der Spiegel at the Hamburg conference “Neue Weltunordnung” (New World Disorder), Chan challenges Western assumptions about power, values, and history. He argues that China’s rise is inevitable, that the West has misunderstood Asia, and that the new global balance of power is already forming — whether the U.S. likes it or not.
In this video:
How China’s economic rise and political influence became unstoppable.
The truth about the U.S.–China rivalry — and who’s really in control.
What the “New World Disorder” means for the future of global power.
Why the West must learn to respect China’s perspective before it’s too late.
