Tariffs has not had yet effect long enough that they would show anywhere but in  imf's prediction data which draws trend that shows that China will pass EU again in 2026.

And EU would have survived economically full trade war with USA, now long term it means that EU will slowly lose its US trade.

Yes and China passed the EU in 2022 and it was predicted to become the strongest economy in the world by 2030 if you read links like this

And that was influenced  because the UK had left the EU and its GDP wasnt counted 

Now in 2025 the EU has passed China again, the point being economic predictions are often wrong

But you right, this doesn't include US tariff impact and we will see that more accurately reflected at the end of the last quarter

And this will apply to all countries that include China. But we need time to see the impact of US tariffs on countries that export to the US

Putting it into politics thread, because Project 2025 brainrot again. https://www.thegamer.com/steams-adult-content-ban-has-been-plotted-for-a-year/

That is a  problem, any suggestion to ban adult movies or  adult content must be rejected at all costs

I would even consider protesting if that happened in South Africa 

Im an adult, no one must dictate to me what I can or cant watch or what game I decide to play

As long as its legal of course and not things like paedophile content
