Yes we forgot how much tech has come from communist states. china totally invents it's own stuff and doesn't steal IP at all...and russia is the bastion of the science world...

China used to be behind technologically but in recent years that hasn’t really been the case. They now publish more high impact research papers than the US. Their green energy sector is also way ahead of anyone else. If the trend continues you’ll probably see US companies trying to steal Chinese IP at some point.

China is playing catch up. Once they steal enough IP to catch up, do you think they're going to stop and wait for more to steal? Or do you think they'll keep going and surpass the west? If they catch up I'm pretty sure they'll keep going. Will they catch up? Only time will tell.
