the world may finally be free of dollar slavery.

So long dollar slavery, welcome renminbi slavery. China Maxi Ammous will welcome his favorite overlords with open arms.

Maybe he should stick to writing books about hypothetical standards.

This is something I haven't heard - Ammous is a China Maxi? Tell me more.

Calling him a China maxi is probably a bit hyperbolic. He's for sure not a US maxi. This episode I wrote about is full of comparisons between the CCP and US approaches and I would agree with some of the things he agreed with. I'm no China maxi. Nuance is rare these days.

Most comparisons I recall him aligning with were China's approach to manipulation being less violent and more subtle. The US state has a long history of violence globally. He isn't a commie.
