    Does this so anything? Iirc China had already flexed a bit on rare earth metal sales to the evil empire, can’t buy weapons from these companies under American law, and I doubt they are selling weapon components to American companies.

    The anglo stenographer who wrote this thinks this is just for show and I can’t tell if that’s copium or an accurate assessment.

    This might actually be a bit worrying. The US can’t really justify a war with China when half the components in their weapons are made there. But if China sanctions the US, they can shift production away from them.

    Wasnt there already sanctions in the other direction? What does this accomplish?
