RARE EARTHS AREN’T RARE—CHINA OWNS THE REFINING, NOT THE MINES
Elon’s right: rare earth minerals are found all over the world—including in the U.S.—but China controls over 85% of global refining. That’s the chokehold.
The problem isn’t digging the stuff up. It’s turning it into magnets for EVs, missiles, and wind turbines. Even U.S.-mined material often gets sent to China for processing.
Until America rebuilds its heavy industry, it will stay dependent. The minerals are here—but the power is still there.

Kegan’s Orders of Conciousness Level 1: babies understanding object permanence Level 2: can understand what gets you what you want, but little personal values beyond that very crude values system Level 3: tribal adopting of your tribe’s values which are…
Sure feels like the commies constant love of the word “cult”
— is because the left, like highschool girls, really treat everything as being about blind allegiance to people, never principles
I.e. that’s how they do things
I.e. Level 3 commies unable to believe that there’s anything more than showing loyalty to the tribe, and so accuse others of the same
And/or it’s simply Rules for Radicals #5, “Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. There is no defense”
Either way, screaming “cult” or “your leader just has narcissism and doesn’t really care about you”, as the left has for years
— sure seems like a rather pathetic lefty tactic, revealing more about themselves than those who they attack, who are just left thinking… “So what, what is that insult even supposed to mean”
“Cult”, “incel”, “narcissist”
We’ve descended into a matriarchy hijacked by men and women who talk and think like teenage girls
Eternal high school
