Thucydides “trap” or rather types of oligarchies meaning Devoted Aristocratic Oligarchy versus Predatory Kakistocratic Oligarchy ? Professor Luciano Canfora might be helpful …

The *Thucydides trap* meme is just a motif coming from the Uncouth Slaves/US Military Industrial Complex MIC for justifying a military clash with China eventually.

Most of the so-called intellectuals from the Uncouth Slaves/US are propaganda agents, especially the “experts” on China including the old schmuck Graham Allison.

President Xi Jinping perfectly knows that *the Thucydides trap* concept is junk history and used by the US MIC for warmongering.

His Excellency used it for signalling to the Orange Pegs that if he wants a military confrontation with China : JUST BRING IT ON !!!

Another thing that I KNOW : The Orange Pegs is such an ignoramus that he never read the History of the Peloponnesian War by Thucydides (~460 bce ~ 400 bce) so he simply cannot grasp that the book is much MORE ABOUT the functioning of different types of oligarchies and not really the so-called Thucydides trap, more an invention by the Uncouth Slaves/US propagandist Graham Allison.

President Xi’s suggestion is much more the following (which escaped all the Western commentators needless to say and was 10 feet above the Orange Pegs’ mind) : I AM THE HEAD OF A DEVOTED ARISTOCRATIC OLIGARCHY, and you Orange Pegs, you are the mere and pathetic figurehead of a PREDATORY KAKISTOCRATIC OLIGARCHY “steering” a nation in decline …

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA …

■ The US neo-cons having travestized Thucydides with the notion of the Thucydides Trap

■ The “Thucydides Trap” is junk history, so why China is using it ?
