I hate China about as much as I hate USA

both-sides galaxy-brain

bothsidesism truly is the laziest algorithm of politics. you simply declare that you "hate equally" two sides that are "equally bad" without any material analysis of what their relative imperfections may be. One does not have to think China is perfect or even good to see that it is not the global hegemon with 800 military bases and 5000 nukes and several torture dungeons waging multiple proxy wars simultaneously while couping, sanctioning, embargoing, and invading anyone that threatens its supremacy.

Yeah, China is so great compared to USA. An authoritarian state whose Head has an ego more fragile than an egg shell.

Biden is pretty fragile, but I don't think that's an especially important point since he is just a puppet for the corporate interests that own everything and protect their claims with state violence.

Would you care if nearly everything you think you know about China was just made up?
