It is absolutely maddening to see American pundits defend every dumbshit, ruinous, genocidal policy over the last twenty years by pointing at China and claiming, "We had to show them we were the boss".
From AI to A-bombs, there's nothing you can't get away with by insisting "China Bad! This will stop them!"
They can't admit the only reason has been "Money!"
And not even the country's, just that of a few old pedophiles trying to rape some life out of children in a vain attempt to feel youth again before the grave takes them
It's a very convenient go-to excuse. And as long as the American public keeps lapping it up, those in power will keep counting on it.
