"He who does much wrong shall surely bring his own downfall," the large-scale tariffs imposed by the United States are indeed moving in that direction!
Trump's decision to raise taxes on China to 125% is essentially a sign of impotent rage! Once the tariff reaches a certain level, any further increase is just a series of numbers!
In doing so, he is acting somewhat like an angry child. Initially, he believed that China would yield, but he didn't expect us to be so firm this time, and many countries around the world also refused to submit.
The reason why the United States has reached its current predicament, apart from Trump's personal style, is closely related to the accumulated contradictions caused by the U.S. not adhering to moral principles for many years.
This generation of netizens is truly talented. The "Memorial to Denounce American Tariffs" written by Quark AI is very reasonable and also very interesting.
The article cites many allusions and combines them with America's recent actions against the international order. After reading the entire text, the most striking impression is its brilliant writing and well-reasoned arguments.
For instance, there is a passage in it that reads as follows:
America has always boasted of being a "free market," yet now it is actually practicing treachery. In ancient times, Guan Zhong assisted Qi, uniting the states under one banner and establishing trust throughout the land: today, America tears up agreements, tramples on rules, acting like a rogue merchant, capriciously changing its stance, treating the international order as if it were nothing. This hegemonism is exactly what the Zuo Zhuan said: "He who does much wrong shall surely bring his own downfall." By using tariffs as a weapon to sever the global industrial chain, it fails to realize that "if the skin is gone, where will the hair attach?" The practice of harming others for self-gain will eventually backfire.
International trade emphasizes mutual benefit and trust, but Trump completely goes against this idea, which is also the reason why many countries oppose America at present.
When it comes to China's advantages, the article written by AI also mentions the Belt and Road Initiative, analyzing our strengths.
Based on reality, it is clearly felt that AI's language expression ability and its ability to combine with reality are very strong, and we believe that as the article says, we "will surely break through the shadow of tariffs and welcome the bright future of prosperity!"
